Operation Sindoor: IAF 'bypassed and jammed' Chinese-supplied air defence systems during 23-minute strike
- The Indian Air Force launched Operation Sindoor on the night of May 6-7, 2025, striking Pakistan's air defence radars from multiple locations.
- This operation followed the Pahalgam terror attack on April 22 and aimed to counter increasingly sophisticated threats using Chinese-supplied Pakistani weapons.
- The mission lasted 23 minutes during which the IAF bypassed and jammed hostile air defence systems, deploying indigenous technologies like the BEL-developed IACCS and Akashteer for real-time coordination.
- BEL confirmed that the Akashteer system provided robust air defence by integrating all radars, sensors, and weapon systems, while Pakistani HQ-9 missiles largely failed to intercept Indian precision strikes.
- The operation demonstrated India's technological edge and strengthened air defence integration, with a ceasefire reached on May 10 following intensified cross-border hostilities and casualties.
