If we're going to understand world conflict.. it would be educational to the Westerners (like myself - I've vaguely heard of this) to understand the significance of this, just as Oleg has made the Eastern Front a reality.
After all didn't the Indian Air Force kick US butt in a simulated conflict(edt- this doesn't take much - no insult to the indians).
This is not to undermine the Pakistani defences, who are by no means inferior in the local context.
It'll be great to hear from local people in these areas
