How India Fooled Pakistan Using Dummy Aircraft, Exposed & Destroyed 9 Terror Bases

New Delhi: After the terrorist attack in Pahalgam on April 22, there was an atmosphere of anger in the whole country. But India gave such a reply that Pakistan was stunned. The Indian Army destroyed 9 terrorist hideouts in Pakistan and PoK under 'Operation Sindoor'. But the real fun came when the Indian Air Force tricked the Pakistani Army with its cleverness. Actually, the Air Force deceived Pakistan's air defense system by using fake aircraft.


Real blast done with fake aircraft

According to the report of news agency ANI, the Indian Air Force targeted 11 out of 12 air bases of Pakistan on the night of 9-10 May. But before attacking, our air force laid a trap of fake fighter planes. Pakistani radar thought that real planes were coming and they activated their HQ-9 missile system. That was their biggest mistake. As soon as the location of their defense system was revealed, the Indian Army easily targeted them.


Pakistan's condition worsened due to the fear of Brahmos


In Operation Sindoor, long-range missiles like Brahmos, Scalp, Rampage and Crystal Maze destroyed the Pakistani air base. About 15 Brahmos missiles destroyed air strips, hangars and communication infrastructure. It is reported that an air alert aircraft and several drones were also destroyed in Sindh. Defense sources said that Brahmos was used for the first time in war and its effect was so tremendous that Pakistan gave up the idea of ​​retaliation.


Pakistan's haste, appeal to DGMO


Stunned by the attacks, Pakistan immediately contacted India's DGMO and appealed for a 'compromise' to stop the military action. This was the wonder of India's power and cleverness.


Operation Sindoor: Things that win hearts


  • Command's wonder: The mission was led by Western Air Command and South-Western Air Command.


  • Pakistan's counter-attack failed: Pakistani Air Force attacked with cruise missiles, drones and surface-to-air missiles, but India's S-400, MRSAM and Akash missile systems foiled everything.


  • Indian Air Force's cleverness: Fake planes fooled Pakistan's radar in such a way that it revealed its own location.


Pakistan did not give up its evil habit


Last week, India and Pakistan announced to stop all fighting on land, air and sea. But just a few hours after the ceasefire, there were reports of drones and explosions in Jammu and Kashmir. Indian security forces retaliated immediately and neutralised the air threats.


Operation Sindoor was not just a military action but India's strong response against terrorism. The cleverness of the Indian Air Force and the strength of the army proved that India is ready to defend itself at any moment. Pakistan will remember this lesson for a long time.
