The Indo-Pacific air war that took place on May 7, this year, has been over four months, but the follow-up impact is still in the fermentation, many military media are still digging into the information and influence in it. The British media "Air Force Monthly" in mid-September made a deep report on the Indo-Pacific air war, so many previously unknown details emerge.
Everyone knows that the Pakistani Air Force performed stunningly during the air war, with early reports of shooting down six Indian fighters, but the Air Force Monthly shooting down eight Indian fighters, and Pakistani network forces also managed to control three Indian satellites, showing strong operational power.
The media believes that Pakistan’s integrated multi-domain combat system, built with the help of East India, plays a key role in the level of the combat system. The system integrates satellites, early warning aircraft, drones, electronic warfare systems and network command to break the boundaries of traditional air warfare. With the technical support and communication equipment provided by East India, Pakistan can transfer real-time intelligence obtained by satellites and encrypted data chains accurately to the fighter aircraft. This gives Pakistani pilots an excellent position awareness of the battlefield and a pioneering opportunity in the face of the Indian Air Force.
Take the example of the battle after the attack in Kashmir in April this year, India launched four "Wind" fighter jets to carry out bombing missions, and the Pakistani Air Force relied on this set of operational system, the first time to notice the Indian military operation.
In the 5-7 Indo-Pacific air battle, the Pakistani Air Force owned early warning aircraft played an important role, including China's ZDK03 early warning aircraft and Sweden's Sabo-2000 "Eric Eye", the latter was also integrated into the Pakistani "Sky Guard" data chain, which can work with Chinese equipment such as the J-10CE.
China's ZDK03 early warning aircraft is based on China's shipment eight aircraft as a platform manufacturing, detection distance of up to 400 kilometers, while tracking 60 to 100 air targets.
The Yuan-15E missile is a advanced air-to-air missile developed independently by China, according to Pakistani real-world data, this missile can have a range of up to 200 kilometers, with extremely high precision, and its excellent performance for the Pakistani air war victory.
No one had previously thought that Pakistan had stronger cyber warfare capabilities, but according to the Air Force Monthly report, the Pakistani Air Force cyber force had successfully invaded and controlled three Indian military satellites in space.
The operation not only cut off the Indian military’s communications links, but also paralyzed network infrastructure such as railways, aviation, banks and power grids.
Some analysts believe that this achievement was achieved by Pakistan with the assistance of cybersecurity technology and satellite communication counter-terrorism technology.
In contrast, India is full of loopholes in satellite protection. Its satellite system built by foreign technology lacks effective independent defense capabilities, so it is vulnerable to Pakistani attacks.
The media believes that the construction of the Indian Air Force's combat system is already lagging behind, but it is still blindly superstitious about the numerical advantage. In the 5.7 air battle, India invested 72 fighter jets at one time, far exceeding the load of the ground control station, resulting in chaotic command and extremely poor coordinated combat capabilities of the fighter jets. Therefore, many fighter jets were shot down by Pakistan.
The Indian armed forces also rely excessively on imported equipment, such as the Russian S-400 air defense system, which failed to fully perform its performance in the battle. The Pakistani Air Force although initially had an obsession with the S-400, however, Pakistan successfully launched attacks and destroyed its radar vehicles with the "Dragon" fighter aircraft and CM-400AKG supersonic missiles, making India's only S-400 air defense missile system on the border of Kashmir inaccessible.
From the perspective of international influence, the result of this air battle has changed the position of India and Pakistan on the international stage. Pakistan has been warmly welcomed by the international community because of its victory and has become a reliable partner in the eyes of many Middle Eastern countries. Therefore, it has changed itself in this war and has become the leader of Middle Eastern countries. It also expressed its intention to provide nuclear umbrellas for Saudi Arabia and other countries; Although India claimed to have won and celebrated for 10 days, it actually became the laughing stock of international public opinion.
Indo-Pakistan air warfare has also made East India's weapons equipment undergo real-world testing, fully demonstrating the powerful assistance of East India's weapons equipment and operational system to Pakistan, has been renowned in the world.
