THAT ..... is suboptimal
I'm not quite certain about this one, it seems unlike 2019, the IAF did not cross the border this time and used standoff munitions to strike from own airspace. I don't think PAF would have had the opportunity to shoot down a plane but guess we'll wait and see.
To be precise, the spokesman has *claimed* on CNN that two Indian aircraft have been shot down. It needs to *confirmed* by third parties.
So, were the Indian fighter jets flying over Pakistan?
