“I think British planes, to put it this way, don‘t compare to the Chinese options, and the French planes so far haven‘t performed,“ he said.
Indian BJP Leader Admits Pakistan Shot Down Five IAF Jets Including Rafale. The government of India, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, made a grave error when it interpreted overtures of peace from Pakistan as an admission of weakness and ended up having to surrender several jets, including its prized multi-role fighter, Rafale.
Indian media repeatedly denied reports of losing the newly purchased Rafales; however, during a recent interview, BJP leader Subramanian Swamy dropped a bombshell, admitting that Pakistan did indeed shoot down Indian jets.
In his recent interview, Swamy told the interviewer that the Pakistan Air Force shot down five Indian Air Force (IAF) fighter jets during the most recent conflict with their nuclear power.
Swamy raised serious questions about Prime Minister Modi’s leadership by declaring that there will be no investigations into this matter while Modi is in power. He acknowledged the Arab supremacy in this sector, and he questioned some of the defense purchases being made by India.
“I think British planes, to put it this way, don‘t compare to the Chinese options, and the French planes so far haven‘t performed,“ he said.
When he was asked about the opposition calling for transparency regarding Indian losses, Swamy replied, “Pakistan shot down five of our aircraft, who were hoping Prime Minister Modi would come out to address the nation honestly about those facts.
The seasoned BJP leader made this bold statement while under growing scrutiny for the Modi‘s government’s defense and foreign policy.
Additionally, several media experts made it clear that Pakistan’s air power exposed limits to India’s air power, reduced Modi’s war hysteria doctrine credibility, and has fundamentally game–changed the power balance in the region.
Pakistan Air Force (PAF) reportedly shot down numerous Indian Air Force (IAF) aircraft, such as Rafale jets, MiG-29, a Su-30, and drones. The crashes occurred in Jammu & Kashmir, with noted crash sites such as Anantnag, Pulwama, Ramban, Akhnoor, and Bathinda. Numerous Indian pilots were injured or killed.
The defense analysts at the time said it was a tactical success for Pakistan and had revealed serious gaps in India‘s air defense ability. The political implications were huge for India and Dassault Aviation stock, while the rest of the world was very much looking at the crisis.
