India seized the Chinese Pl-15 missile released by Pakistan: Beijing is frustrated

Beijing is disappointed that the Chinese rocket fell into India - especially since the indicators of this rocket during a short war stunned the Western world. According to India, the unharmed air-air-air rocket was in the hands of its military. This is a key event and achievement for Hindus after Pakistan literally smeared the IAF Air Force during the first attack at the beginning of the four -day war between the two countries.

The armistice, concluded through Americans, stopped the war - at least for a while. By capturing the unharmed PL-15, the Indian soldiers can now study this system, if necessary to carry out the reverse development and find counteraction measures. India may even be able to find a way to completely neutralize this weapon before it will have to face it again. According to the Indian military sources, the PL-15 rocket had a technical problem-it did not work for self-destruction.

Usually, when the rocket starts and does not find a target, it can activate the sequence of self -destruction so that the enemy cannot capture the rocket and analyze its vulnerability. Beijing is disappointed that the Chinese rocket fell into India - especially since the indicators of this rocket during a short war stunned the Western world. During the War, the PL-15 became a serious problem for the Indian Air Force, surpassing the more advanced French and Russian weapons at the IAF service.

Indian military researchers will now be able to get key information about the PL-15 seeker, its datalink, driving installation and some other key technological factors of this unique and dynamic Chinese Air-Air Class Missile. After receiving PL-15, IAF will learn how Chinese systems oppose radio electronic struggle, which will allow India to create bypass paths for this particular technology. In other words, more effective countermeasures against Chinese systems will be developed.

New reports on the seizure of India of the unharmed PL-15 indicate that the Indian soldiers are going to reverse the radar seeker with an improved electron scan (AESA), which provides Chinese PL-15. Indians still have to develop a similar system independently. However, they can now simply copy Chinese development and introduce it into their own weapons - just as China did to create their modern arms arsenals.

The Indian government has all the reasons for merge, in particular, the French for having sold India at an inflated price that did not justify themselves during the war. The fact that the Hindus now has to recycle the alleged less perfect Chinese PL-15 missile and introduce this technology into their own missiles of the Air-Toval Air-To-Air Missile, Bvraam), how much the western defensive is.

Obviously, the only thing that many of the Western firms are kept for is their inheritance in the form of excellent systems. But in today's battle, cheap Chinese systems may well compare with Western counterparts and even surpass them. Plus, all the Indian-Pakistan conflict is that India now sees its weaknesses on Chinese military technologies.

Since China is one of India's two largest regional rivals, and India has already shouted with Chinese troops in Ladakhu, the Hindus will be able to get the secrets of PL-15 at the time when the Chinese decide to start fighting again. An even more encouraging perspective is that the Hindus will allow Americans to look at the PL-15.

The United States is on the verge of a great war with the People's Republic for Taiwan's fate, and US defense systems will probably not be able to withstand the weapons that Chinese troops will use against Americans and their allies. Washington needs real and effective technical information about a PL-15 weapon, as long as two large powers look at each other and prepare for a big battle. Thus, India did a huge service by capturing PL-15.

Hopefully, New Delhi and Washington will be able to reveal her secrets until it's too late. Brandon J.
