| Half of its population will be wiped off if India thrusts war: Jatoi |
| 2008-12-27 |
| Federal minister for production Sardar Abdul Qayyum Jatoi said that if India thrusts war on Pakistan then half of Indian and 120 million of Pakistani population would be wiped off. Speaking at a press conference in Dharki, he said that every thing is used in war and we would not sit idle if India attacks our country. He said that India have to bear more loss in the war. Sardar Abdul Qayyum Jatoi said that both countries are high alert. We do not want war but if it thrusts then situation will become worse. |

| #6 Yes and no on the Indian pilots versas US pilots : US pilots were flying under rules of engagement which effectively nullified their electronic warfare advantages. |

| #5 Re: Indian air force - if I recall correctly the IAF pilots beat the USAF in mock combat dogfights not too long ago. |

| #4 I'm going to guess here, but I suspect the Pak Air Force has some decent elements. They fly F-16s and they do train their pilots. They aren't a match for the USAF in any way but they might stand up to the IAF for a couple days. They'll lose for the usual reasons -- while their pilots are brave, their logistics, support and mechanics suck. So after a day or two of combat ops with insha-allan maintenance, the Pak AF will be grounded. So if I ran the IAF, I'd work real hard to pressure the Pak AF into an ops tempo that they just can't maintain, swatting Pak aircraft every way I can, luring the Pak AF into carefully-planned traps (using both aircraft and AA), and wait for the Paks to collapse. And then I'd bring the heavy lumber through. |

| #3 I don't really think Pakistan can deliver those bombs. And given that Pakistan can't even keep drones out of their country, I think India can even without resorting to missiles. I'll be that the problem is that the terrorist elements of the government are so whipped up with nationalist fervor they don't understand that as much as they should. |
