What the hell are the Indians flying, Fokker Eindeckers? You need to read about the recent air exercise/dogfight between (I believe it was) Indian Mig-29s and U.S. (probably) F-15s or F-18s. IAF won hands down. US fighters were handicapped without use of AWACS but result was decidedly lopsided. Pukin Dog or someone will provide more accurate details. Not a force to be diminished.
OK, so they can fly a MiG. If the IAF is such a bunch of crack shots, then how come they didn't plink Osama's turban off his head, then blow his ass into it? Something about this report smells like the inside of a Mooslim's pajamas.......
SU-27 Flankers, top-of-the-line Russian hardware against our older F16s, NOT F-22s. No AWACS, (Like we'd ever go in without those!) AND the Indians had a 2-1 numerical advantage.
We do these things to help their political propaganda, and learn a few things about the SU-27s and their tactics.
