Did the Pakistan Air Force Strike India's Protective Umbrella? ( A thread ๐งต)
On May 10, the Pakistan Air Force conducted retaliatory strikes, reportedly targeting and destroying the S-400 system in India.
Letโs examine the evidence available from open sources. 1/
The Pakistan Air Force (PAF) specifically targeted and destroyed the radar components of the S-400 system, such as the Cheese Board radar. They did not claim to have struck the launcher tubes the same ones later showcased in photographs by Narendra Modi.2/
Satellite imagery confirms PAF strike on S-400 component at Adampur base on May 10, using CM-400 from JF-17 (rail 22-313). India claimed the missiles fell short, but no videos of CM-400 in civilian areas exist, unlike SCALP or Brahmos incidents. This suggests both missiles hit inside the base.
An intact S-400 radar wouldnโt look like this. Denials donโt change facts cross-check with other imagery. If the radar survived, why was it hastily removed and missing from later images, while other components remained? PAFโs precision targeting of S-400 component is pretty much evident. 3/
S-400 at Adampur AFS:
โขImg 1 & 2: Show the target area.
โขImg 3: Radar missing in recent satellite imagery.
โขImg 4: India acknowledges equipment damage at Adampur, where PAF specifically targeted the S-400 radar.
Indian air defenses failed to intercept any PAF missiles or CM-400s, leaving no wreckage behind as evidence. 4/
True-color satellite imagery from Adampur AFS, India, reveals multiple impact sites at the location of an S-400 battery, which was subsequently struck by Pakistan Air Force CM-400AKG missiles. 5/
PAF targeted the S-400โs 91N6E โCheeseboardโ radar at Adampur AFS using JF-17 Thunder aircraft armed with CM-400AKG supersonic missiles.
Equipped with passive radar seekers and 880-lb warheads, these missiles precisely destroyed the radar.
Since the S-400โs dispersed components radars, TELs, and command vehicles are interlinked, neutralizing the radar effectively disables the entire system. This explains the absence of functional S-400 components during Modiโs visit to Adampur. 6/
First Bihar, an Indian news outlet, reported the death of an Indian soldier manning the S-400 air defense system at Adampur Airbase on May 10, 2025. The article was later deleted, likely under pressure from the Indian government. 7/
International think tanks and reputed defense experts have begun confirming that the S-400 HIMAD ADS took a hit on a critical component the Cheese Board radar struck by two CM-400AKG missiles fired from JF-17 Thunder Block-II aircraft of the Pakistan Air Force. 8/
Another admission by Indian news outlet.9/
At the NDTV Defence Summit 2025, an IAF officer openly acknowledged that Pakistan carried out a concentrated attack on S-400 units during the May 9โ10 strikes.10/
IAF Chief: Pakistan located the S-400 systems using satellites and targeted them with two CM-400AKG missiles. 11/
Modiโs visit to Adampur unintentionally confirmed the S-400โs presence there. Locating the system is the hardest part destroying it was already mastered by
PAF. Modi ha tou Mumkin hai . ๐๐
Indian agencies suddenly crackdown on potentialโPakistani spiesโ suggests leaks after HVTs (like BrahMos storage sites) were hit.
Despite showcasing launch tubes, India never displayed the radar again the very heart of the S-400 system. 12 /
India is now considering ordering 1โ2 additional S-400 air defense systems, on top of the existing five, to compensate for the two that were destroyed.
So if the S-400 wasnโt really destroyedโฆ why the rush to replace them? Our Indian friends might like to answer that ๐ ๐ 13/
Anyhow, itโs always about who has the longest stick. Pakistan hamesha

The government is pushing a major change that could reshape the balance of power in Pakistan from the provinces to the military, and even the judiciary.
1- Articleโฏ243 Command of the Armed Forces .
The President holds the symbolic Supreme Command of the armed forces the Prime Minister handles dayโtoโday control and command. The proposed draft aims to amend Articleโฏ243 so that only the Prime Minister has final authority over the military command structure reducing or eliminating the Presidentโs role.1/
Provincial revenue share (Articleโฏ160(3A)
Provinces have a constitutional guarantee of a share in federal revenues under the 18th Amendment.
The amendment would remove or weaken the guarantee for provincial shares in revenue giving the Centre more flexibility (or control) over provincial finances. 2/
Articles 198 & 203 โ Judge Transfers and Appointments
Currently the Judges of High Courts are transferred with the Presidentโs approval after consultation with the Chief Justices.
The amendment could reduce the Presidentโs role in transfers and give more authority to parliamentary or federal bodies. 3/
Over 1,500 people killed in just 3 days. Sudanโs civil war has become one of Africaโs deadliest conflicts over 14,000 killed in El Fasher, millions displaced. ๐ธ๐ฉ
At its heart, it is a war for control over gold, Sudan,s most vital resource.
When the war erupted in April 2023, most headlines focused on Sudanโs army vs. the RSF.
But this fight runs deeper itโs a war for control over gold, the only lifeline left after South Sudanโs secession in 2011 took away 75% of Sudanโs oil and 90% of its foreign earnings.
Gold became Sudanโs new oil. 2/
As the economy collapsed, thousands of jobless Sudanese turned to small-scale mining.
Then came the turning point the 2012 discovery of massive gold deposits in Jebel Amer, North Darfur.
By 2012, gold made up 60% of Sudanโs total exports.
But that wealth didnโt bring stability but warlords.3/
Why Iran isnโt Firing back that hard yet . ( Short thread ๐งต)
Some said Israel crippled Iranian missile program some said Iran is running low out of missiles.
Meanwhile Israel said it crushed Iranian missile power which isnt the case because there are missiles flying over literally every night .
Then why Iran isnt hitting that hard the same way they did at ist ? Let me break it Down for you . 1/
Israel claims it has destroyed nearly two-thirds of Iranโs ballistic missile launch capability specifically the TELs (Transporter Erector Launchers). They present this as the reason Iran is now launching fewer missiles each day.
Iranian missile launchers are almost always road mobile and often just look like container trucks.
Even with the best of intel, itโs hard to track exactly where they are at any given time. Video attached. ๐๐ป
2/
But that claim doesnโt hold up under scrutiny. So far, only about 10 destroyed TELs have been visually confirmed.If Iran still has hundreds of launchers, why hasnโt it launched another massive missile wave?
The answer lies in logistics, geography, and air superiority.3/
Since Iran and Israel have locked the horns we have seen everything from flying missiles to hitting key sites and takig down high value targets. Which side is having an upper hand so far?
Here is the complete breakdown of the damage assessment on both sides with video evidence and satellite imagery. ๐๐ป
Iranian Natanz Nuclear Facility.
Israeli F-35s damaged centrifuge halls, enrichment plants, and substations. Which CRIPPLES
Iranโs weapons-grade uranium production. It delays weaponization, exposes weak air defense, and triggers domestic backlash.
2/
Isfahan Nuclear Technology Center Iran .
Destruction of uranium conversion and fuel fabrication facilities. Its going to DISRUPT fuel cycle and research. And its very Symbolic loss , pressures Iran diplomatically and internally. 3/
