Covid-19: Delhi caps gatherings, 100 allowed in weddings and 50 at cremations

A new dimension of warfare has come into focus after Operation Sindoor, with India’s Rafale jets taking centre stage. According to a former US F-15E pilot, India’s use of advanced decoy systems was nothing short of a “genius move.” These systems, including towed decoys, are designed to mimic the aircraft’s signature, attracting incoming missiles away from the jet. Combined with the strategic dropping of fuel tanks before engagement, Indian pilots created a confusing radar picture for the enemy. What appeared to be successful hits may have actually been strikes on decoys or debris. This tactic not only protects the aircraft but also creates uncertainty in enemy ranks. In high-stakes combat, confusion can be as powerful as firepower. India’s approach shows a shift towards smarter, technology-driven warfare where survival and strategy go hand in hand.
