ORF National Security Dialogue 2023 | Global Conflicts & Lessons for India’s Airpower | Over the last 18 months a plethora of debates have sprung in the aftermath of the Ukraine-Russia conflict, the Armenia-Azerbaijan war, and most recently the Israel-Hamas conflict regarding the centrality of airpower in conflict. With the growing use of drones for offensive operations, new forms of air-defense systems being employed, and the minimal usage and impact of conventional fighter aircraft in these conflicts; there are many lessons for India’s airpower capacity as well.
So what lessons can these changes and conflicts have on India’s airpower capacity? Is there a need for new doctrines to be incorporated by the Indian Air Force? What implications does the IAF’s depleting fighter aircraft squadron strength have on its capabilities?
Join the latest iteration of the ORF’s National Security Dialogues to assess these themes and beyond.
