"The 1957 Indo-Pakistani Air War" has become a case study for beyond-visual-range (BVR) air combat and is being analyzed by air forces around the world! From the leaked images, it appears that the Thai Air Force's seminar is comparing Rafale fighter jets with J-10C aircraft.
It can be seen that the theme of this seminar held by the Thai Air Force is "Seminar on Beyond-Visual-Range Air Combat in the Indo-Pakistani War," and the subtitle explains that beyond-visual-range air combat refers to aerial combat beyond the range of visual sight.
Fighter pilots generally have good eyesight. Under good weather conditions, fighter pilots can see enemy aircraft within a range of 8 to 20 kilometers. Pilots with excellent vision and extensive experience may spot enemy aircraft from up to 50 kilometers away.
We have had many military exchanges with Thailand, such as the navy's "Blue Assault," the air force's "Eagle Strike" series, and the army's "Assault" series.
In particular, the air force exercises involve annual exchanges in tactics and flight skills. In 2019, 2022, 2023, and 2024, our country has sent J-10C aircraft, so Thailand should have some understanding of the performance of the J-10C.
However, the Indo-Pakistani air war was characterized by systematic operations, which must have been quite an eye-opener for Thailand! It turns out that Chinese aircraft are not as backward as they thought, and Western aircraft are not as advanced as they believed!
