Excellent article that brings out the fient and thrust in very important non military dimensions as well as mil. Modern war is full spectrum - kinetic and non kinetic.
Militarily Ladakh maybe fient for thrust in Arunachal, Sikkim
But will not bother us for foll reasons : https://twitter.com/LevinaNeythiri/status/1265611548493590529">https://twitter.com/LevinaNey...

Fient works only when enemy diverts forces to theatre of fient and cannot reorient forces in time to where the thrust will come
But we can adequately protect Eastern Sector. We have 3 Corps there - 3,4 and 33 Corps. Plus 17 Corps - Strike Corps that will deliver our thrust

3,4,33 Corps have ample reserves +17 Corps is Eastern Theatre reserve
No troops have been moved from Eastern Theatre to Ladakh, nor have troops been moved from LOC to Ladakh
So first objective of fient fails - we did not weaken one sector to reinforce the threatened sector

Then comes ability to detect enemy activity. Both Chinese and us have enough means to detect each other& #39;s movements via satellites, drones. We are weaker in drones but this is not 1962 that they can move troops and we don& #39;t know
So they fail 2nd aspect of fient - surprise

Next is adjusting your deployments as situation changes and ability to bring adequate reserves to right sector quickly. One aspect of that is knowing where to go (discussed above) and second is getting there
Roads have improved + heli/ airlift capabilities have improved

Sorry Chinese friends, our reserves can and will be moved in very quickly as needed. Plus we have stocked up pretty forward as well
Plus most importantly we are the world& #39;s most battle hardened army thanks to our Paxi friends. Every unit has some battle innoculated troops.

Chinese cannot take on our troops and they know that
Also this is not 1962. IAF and IN will play their full war winning role. By the way which AF in the world has been in live air combat recently and smashed the enemy ? Only the IAF ! And IN is eyeing Malacca and Shangai
