India-Pakistan conflict has made Taiwanese, Filipinos, and Vietnamese people feel a mix of emotions! Taiwan's Mirage 2000 fighter jets are even behind the Rafale by a generation. The Philippines' best FA-50 light fighters in their air force are also behind the JF-17 Thunder fighters by a generation.
Vietnam's strongest Su-30 fighters in their air force are even worse off. J-10s have shot down Rafales and Su-30s, but no one talks about the fact that Su-30s are considered useless. More importantly, India's Su-30MKI fighters are still half a generation ahead of Vietnam's Su-30s.
Indians are suffering, as their intelligence is exposed. India's airborne early warning aircraft use the Russian Il-76 transport aircraft platform and Israeli airborne radar systems.
However, Israel's airborne radar and command control systems cannot command India's Su-30 fighters or Rafale fighters. So, what were they thinking when purchasing these planes?
Vance came to New Delhi this time with his Indian wife to stir up some conflicts and seek support from India in the tariff war. Americans thought India's Western equipment and Russian weapons could easily win.
But India suffered repeated defeats. This battle not only changed the situation in South Asia but will also change the situation in the Asia-Pacific region. Military power will always be the most important strength, and only the victors can earn respect.
