China gave live support to Pakistan during Operation Sindoor: Deputy Chief, Army
Live Events (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel China provided live support to Pakistan during Operation Sindoor , including information on Indian weapon deployments and actions, Deputy Chief of Army Staff Lt Gen Rahul R Singh has said. These are the first public remarks on Beijing's role in the four-day officer said China used Pakistan like a "borrowed knife" to avoid direct confrontation on the northern borders. He also flagged Turkey's role, suggesting trained personnel were on the ground and Ankara provided real-time support to comments come days after Defence Minister Rajnath Singh met his Chinese counterpart Dong Jun in Qingdao and called for restoring trust and working towards a permanent solution to border tensions. Singh also proposed a structured roadmap for complete de-escalation."So Pakistan was the front face. China provided all possible support. It's no surprise-81% of Pakistan's military hardware in the last five years is from China. And China, as per its own '36 stratagems', prefers to use a neighbour to cause pain than get into a direct mud-slinging match on the northern border," Lt Gen Singh said, adding Beijing used the conflict as a "live lab" to test its at a FICCI seminar on 'New Age Military Technologies', the officer also revealed that even as DGMO-level talks were ongoing between India and Pakistan, China was feeding real-time inputs to Islamabad."When the DGMO talks were on, Pakistan was saying things like, 'We know your such-and-such vector is primed and ready for action. Please pull it back.' That meant they were getting live intel from China," he added that Pakistan requested a ceasefire on the fourth day as it realised India had a "hidden punch" ready that could have left it in a "very bad condition".His remarks contradict earlier comments by Chief of Defence Staff Gen Anil Chauhan, who had said there was no definitive proof of China providing live targeting data during the war. They also come ahead of a possible India-China leaders' meeting at an upcoming BRICS Gen Singh said India faced three adversaries during Op Sindoor-Pakistan as the visible front, China providing live support, and Turkey assisting with weapons and trained personnel."Turkey also played a very important role. We saw numerous drones landing during the war, along with trained individuals," he India's action, he said the message was clear: if red lines are crossed, there will be punitive action. He revealed India had initially identified 21 terror targets in Pakistan but eventually chose to engage nine, based on real-time intel, with the final decision taken at the last hour.

Israel has Iron Dome, Arrow, THAAD, Russia has S-400, US planning Golden Dome..., but what is India planning? Army deputy chief makes big statement
(Akashteer: An Indian Air Defence Control & Reporting System developed by Bharat Electronics Limited/PTI Image) New Delhi: Since the success of Operation Sindoor, the Indian Army has embarked on a mission to modify, improve, and rework the already advanced weapon systems and military hardware. During Operation Sindoor, the supremacy and invincibility of the Indian Armed Forces was clearly visible. Now, the arsenal will be refurbished to make it even more lethal and dangerous for the enemy. What is Indian Army planning? During the four-day clash with Pakistan, the Indian Armed Forces were directly pitted against Chinese and Turkish weaponries which it nullified with ease. This has proven to be a valuable experience for India as it studied the weapons supplied by China and Turkey. Now, the forces are crystal clear about their next mission which is to identify the deficiencies and work upon them. This will help India to dictate the terms to the enemy in case of a full-blown war with Pakistan. What did Indian Army say on Operational Readiness? Deputy Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen Rahul R Singh, while addressing a gathering at an event 'New Age Military Technologies' organised by FICCI, highlighted that India needs to ramp up its preparations on several counts, including C4 ISR (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) and air defence grid. 'An important lesson is the importance of C4 ISR and civil-military functions. There is a lot to be done as far as this is concerned. When DGMO-level talks were on, Pakistan actually was mentioning that we know that such and such vector is primed and ready for action. We would request you to perhaps pull it back. They were getting live inputs from China. That is one place we really need to move fast,' said Lt Gen Singh. What is C4 ISR? C4ISR stands for Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance. It is a military term that refers to a collection of systems and technologies designed to enhance situational awareness, streamline communication, and ensure seamless coordination among various units, ultimately enabling informed and effective decision-making during combat operations. Lt General Singh mentioned how Pakistan was getting help from Chinese satellites. China has deployed several reconnaissance/ surveillance satellites in the past few years compared to India while ISRO has to catch up with Beijing. How equipped is India compared to Israel and America? Israel has a strong air defence system that includes Irone dome, Arrow, David's Sling and America's THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defence) while the United States is also preparing for a multi-layered air defence system named Golden Dome. As for India, given its vast area and location, it needs an air defence system capable of protecting the whole nation. Lieutenant General Rahul R Singh highlighted the need for a similar, rather more powerful air defence system that can take on both China and Pakistan. 'There is a need for a robust air defence system. Our population centres need to be protected. We don't have the luxury of Israel's Iron Dome and a number of other air defence systems. We don't have such a system as our country is vast and such things cost a lot of money. This time, our population centres were not quite addressed, but next time, we need to be prepared for that,' he said.
