Islamabad: Three years after the downing of two Indian Air Force aircraft and capture of one pilot, the IAF is yet to recover from the humiliation at the hands of a far smaller adversary \u2013 the PAF which exposed to the world the inherent military weakness of a \u201cnuclear-armed\u201d India. The Indian botched attempt to strike deep inside Pakistan following a false flag operation at Pulwama, and counter strike by the PAF on Feb 27 established its military and technological superiority, shattering to pieces the myth of Indian military might. On 14 February 2019, a young Kashmiri boy, resenting Indian oppression of Kashmiri people, drove a vehicle packed with explosives into a convoy of 78 buses carrying Indian paramilitary police in Pulwama, killing 40 CRPF personnel. Moments after the attack the Indian media and government immediately blamed Pakistan before even the start of any investigation. Prime Minister Khan promised to conduct an investigation, provided Delhi could provide any \u201cactionable evidence.\u201d He however also warned that Pakistan would \u201cretaliate\u201d if attacked.
