Pakistan wanted to avenge Balakot Air Strike, but failed 3/30/2019 12:27:52 AM Early Times Report jammu, Mar 29: It was on February 26 that our Air Force entered deep inside Pakistan at Balakot and destroyed Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) terrorist-training camps. The surgical strike within Pakistan was 100% successful. Reports suggested that 100s of JeM commanders were killed. The surgical strike shocked both Islamabad and Rawalpindi with many Pakistani law-makers raising anti-Pakistan PM Imran Khan slogans in the Pakistan National Assembly (PNA) itself. To save his face and the face of the rattled Pakistani Army, both Islamabad and Rawalpindi decided to avenge the Balakot attack. In fact, following the Indian Air Force (IAF) strike on Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) terrorists training camp in Balakot, the Pakistani Air Force (PAF), according to a report, "tried to carry out similar attacks the very next day on Indian military installations but failed to do so" "On 27 February, the Pakistani Air Force with its package of more than 20 planes led by the American F-16s along with the French Mirage-IIIs and Chinese JF-17, fired 11 H-4 1,000 kg bombs from ranges of around 50 km inside their territory at military targets at three locations but failed to hit any of them," the report quoting government sources has said. As per the report, "the H-4 bombs fired by the Mirage-IIIs of PAF are classified as stand-off weapons that can be launched form a distance to aid quicker evasive manoeuvre of jets firing them". The report further said: "These H-4s, made by Pakistan with assistance of South Africa, are similar to the Spice-2000 bombs that were used by IAF in the Balakot strikes". "These H-4s are not very accurate and missed their targets," government sources were quoted as saying, adding that "in one of the attacks on an army camp in Jammu and Kashmir, the building was protected by a huge tree which managed to deflect the Pakistani bomb".   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
