Indian Rafale fighter jets have started preparations for the war. They are currently practicing in the snowy plains of Himachal Pradesh during the night. This practice in difficult paths between the mountains will be very useful in the situation of fighting with China in East Ladakh and Pakistan in Kashmir.
Here the terrain of the Himalayan peaks is very similar from there. According to a report, if conditions deteriorate along the border with China in the Ladakh sector, Rafael will be ready to attack with its Metor and SCALP missiles. These Rafals have been awarded to the Golden Arrow Squadron of the Indian Air Force.
Rafale can change its signature frequency
Rafale aircraft flying in Himachal Pradesh are currently running distance from LAC. This is so that the radars of the People's Liberation Army deployed at Aksai Chin do not identify their frequency signatures. In the worst case, China can use these signatures and jam the jets. However, according to military experts, Rafale can be used for training in Ladakh too because it has such signal processors that it can change the signal frequency if needed.
Rafale are armed with deadly weapons
The Rafale that has arrived in India is accompanied by Meteor Beyond Visual Range air-to-air missiles, MICA multi-mission air-to-air missiles and SCALP deep-strike cruise missiles. With this, the IAF's Jambajas have acquired tremendous ability to fly targets on air and on land.
Meteor missiles come with a no-escape zone, meaning they cannot be avoided. It is three times more powerful than air-to-air missiles of the present-day medium range. The missile system is fitted with a special rocket motor that gives it a range of 120 km.
Talks with China continue, but tension persists
Diplomatic and military talks are underway between India and China to resolve the deadlock on the border in East Ladakh. Currently, the focus of both the armies is not only on the western sector of LAC, but also on the rest. India has made it clear that China will have to retreat from Depsang and Pangong Tso, without which peace will not be restored. Last week, the army chief asked Central and Eastern Army commanders to be on the highest alert. The Navy is also constantly in sight in the Arabian Sea, the Bay of Bengal and the Indian Ocean.
