India has a military edge due to many reasons including geography as I showed your boss @HuXijin_GT via my tweet thread a few days ago. Our leaders know it, so do yours which is why they are calling for disengagement

Recent mobilisation facts : You moved 4 Mech Division...

1/n
against us last week. This is in addition to 6 Mech Division that you started the fracas with. How did you start ? You expanded the scope of your summer exercises in Tibet and used 3/4 times the forces that you usually exercise with. Then under cover of exercise your 6 Mech

2/n
broke off and made a mad dash to Ladakh. Its constituent brigades (all arm brigades) went to 3 different areas including Samzungling opposite #GalwanValley Galwan. You thought you would catch us by surprise and roll down the valley. But you were stopped #galwanvalleyclash

3/n
Similarly you reinforced areas to North of #Pangong So lake, #Gogra etc. But we stopped you in each place, including destroying your camp in Gogra and building our defences in under a week

In addition to evicting you from incursion areas, we also deployed in depth mirroring

4/n
your deployments in depth. Last week you brought in your 4th Division

Against this we have 3 Div in Leh + Armoured Brigade and have reinforced with a Division plus. I am told almost 2 Divisions plus at least 1 more armoured brigade if not 2. All acclimatised and ready

5/n
We have more than enough arty there. Remember #GalwanValleyFaceOff ? In addition to 16 Punjab we had elements of 3 Punjab, 3 Medium Regt and 81 Field Regiment. Thats 2 Infantry +2 Arty batallions. Please ask yourself how come elements of 2 Arty regts came so fast

6/n
to join the hand to hand fight ?

Answer - they are deployed very close !! 2 full arty regts of 18 guns each in support of an infantry brigade of 3 batallions. That's Double the standard deployment of arty

There is more in reserve

7/n
In mountain warfare the attacker needs a significant numerical advantage from 3:1 (in flat terrain like plateaus) to 12:1 to assault positions on hills. And we have more troops + guns + tanks deployed

With respect , your tweets go against all military logic, laws of physics

8/n
Air Power :

I explained to you a few days ago that you have barely 750 combat a/c that come close to ours in entire PLAAF, of which you can only deploy a handful in Ladakh +Xinjiang

See detailed analysis by @bennedose. 160 a/c is all you can manage



9/n
So whats your end game ?

You have encroached on F4-F8 area in north bank of Pangong Hso. Plus you have occupied heights on F4. But we can dominate you by both observation and fire from the South Bank of the lake

If things go kinetic, you will be hammered

So you want

10/n
to disengage from all points except Pangong So and win that disputed area without firing a shot. Just like you do in South China sea against Vietnam and also against Phillipines, Japan, Thailand. Salami Slicing

You keep negotiating and at same time you keep mobilising

11/n
A word about our economic action

We have banned 59 apps, banned your companies from construction contracts in India, banned you from bidding for 4G upgrades. 5G is obviously out of the question.

You are a mercantilist country. This has hurt you. Do you think our leaders

12/n
would have taken these steps if we did not have the capability and the will to back them up militarily ?

The only reason we did these is that we have military edge. Now ball is in your court

#IndiaChinaFaceOff

13/13
*16 Bihar not 16 Punjab
