At dawn on May 10, Asim Bajwa, the spokesperson of the Pakistan Army, made a statement that caused an uproar in the global military circle. According to reports from China Central Television News, India launched six "Brown" ballistic missiles from Adampur in Punjab, and one missile accurately returned home, hitting the launch site Adampur, while the other five fell in the Amritsar area of Punjab. The Pakistani air defense system was stunned: this trajectory left even the missiles themselves bewildered. How could the air defense missiles imported from China intercept such unpredictable projectiles?
India's operation was nothing short of "battlefield performance art." The Brown missile demonstrated its "free fall" grace, perfectly embodying the concept of "lost contact upon launch, fate upon landing." As Bajwa joked at the press conference: "We were prepared to intercept, but their trajectories were more unpredictable than weather forecasts!" This was no ballistic missile; it was a "Brownian motion missile," with random art leaving even Chinese air defense systems in awe of its unpredictability.
Netizens transformed into comedians: "India's missiles don't check the almanac before launch, and rely on mysticism after landing." Literary enthusiasts marveled that Lu Xun's "one is a jujube tree, the other is also a jujube tree" reached new heights in "one hits India, five also hit India." This divine operation turned the enemy's radar screens into "Schrödinger's trajectory."
Why are Brown missiles so "free-spirited"? The answer lies in India's defense system's "hard flaw." According to "Indian Defense Review," the guidance chips of the Brown missile depend on American technology, but due to restrictions under the U.S.-India Technology Protection Agreement, upgrades are out of the question. Not to mention that in 2022, India's army reduced real-world exercises by 30% due to budget cuts, leaving operators' proficiency in doubt. Launching missiles is akin to playing Russian roulette; no wonder even their own territory became a "target range."
In short, "India's missiles have American chips, Indian-style operations, and random landings, truly an international cooperation 'disaster movie.'" In comparison, Pakistan's air defense systems, though on high alert, can only throw up their hands helplessly: "This battle cannot be fought!"
Bajwa's restrained laughter during the press conference became the focus of attention. He solemnly stated: "We were confident we could intercept, but India's trajectories made us question our existence." Laughter erupted at the press conference, and the Pakistani military didn't even bother activating the Chinese air defense system; after all, letting the missiles play on their own seemed safer.
In contrast, India's military has yet to make any official comments on the matter, likely preoccupied with a "blame game." Was it a chip issue? Operational error? Or bad feng shui? Regardless, this "self-guided" missile show has already brought India immense embarrassment on the international military stage.
We must remind India: To break free from the "Brown missile" curse, they need to work on three fronts. First, technological upgrades—less reliance on American "second-hand goods" and more investment in developing self-reliant chips. Second, personnel training—don't let launch operators treat missiles as "lottery machines." Third, international collaboration—be humble and learn from Russia about ballistic missile systems instead of always thinking "Made in India" can solve everything. Otherwise, if the next missile returns home, don't blame Pakistan for laughing too loud.
India's "divine operation" not only left Pakistan speechless but also provided global military enthusiasts with a "black comedy." The Brown missile proved that true destructive power lies not in hitting enemies but in leaving everyone baffled. It can be said that "India's missiles are friend-or-foe indistinguishable and invincible!" For the next "battle miracle," we will watch with anticipation—after all, radars will remain helpless, air defense systems will be useless, and laughter will surely ensue!
