The Indian military has shown some questionable problems in a number of past conflicts, which has raised questions about their real combat capabilities. Although the Indian military has strong military strength, in the conflict with Pakistan, they can clearly take the initiative, but because of their own quality problems, Pakistan has stolen the limelight.
Looking back at history, India has suffered a crushing defeat in the Sino-Indian war with China, probably because they underestimated the enemy against the squadron. Although the Indian military had participated in World War II and accumulated considerable combat experience, they were completely annihilated by the squadron in just one day, and the commander was even captured, which became a shame in India's military history.
The Indian military's mountain troops are strong in the fight against Pakistan in the border area, with more warplanes than Pakistan, and have shown themselves very confident on the border issue. However, they must take into account that Pakistan's best allies may provide support. In an effort to boost morale, India claimed that they had been reborn and vowed not to experience the history of defeat in the Sino-Indian war.
China has always adhered to the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries, and even if the conflict between India and Pakistan intensifies again, China will uphold its responsibility for world peace and engage in mediation. If India really goes too far, we can also engage in normal arms sales with Pakistan and exert pressure on India in a disguised way. But once China intervenes, India's so-called "not repeating the mistakes of the past" will be nothing more than self-deception.
To sum up, the Indian military has shown some questionable problems in regional security affairs, despite its military strength. However, instead of being overconfident, it is better to look at your own problems in order to truly improve your actual combat capabilities to meet the challenges of the future.
