Looks like the Chinese Fighter Jets and air-to-air weapon systems that Pakistan bought are winning them the air-to-air war. Reports are indicating the J-10’s are shooting down Rafales and other jets that India bought.

Now you got to account for things like pilot skill because that stuff matters too. So far though China’s aircrafts look legit. Chinese defense stocks are definitely going up though.
Now if these reports are true it’s not a good sign for India because their most advanced fighter jets are the Rafale and they bought 36 of them. The planes that shot them down Pakistan has a fleet of 240 of them and it’s not their most advanced fighter jet.
All that said, these are all kids games compared to the real war-ending weapons and threats these countries have.
Nuclear weapons/ICBM’s cannot easily be shot down breh. Especially when volleyed with decoys, chaffs, counter-interceptors, etc.
Europe got a wake-up call. The Rafale is their most advanced fighter jet and it got cooked. Apparently one got sniped in its own territory before it could even make it into a combat zone, which is quite bad.

I would assume it's a rain of icbms. Not necessarily nuclear. You can achieve an apocalyptic level of damage with conventional ballistics. Iran proved last year that it's basically a numbers game when they tested that theory on the best American defense equipment in the iron dome and went straight at telaviv with successful hits.
