Abstract

The article discusses how the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) disrupted Indian Air Force's (IAF) Observation-Orientation-Decision-Action (OODA) loop during the 2025 air war. Topics discussed include the PAF's move to shift from defensive to offensive counter-air operations following IAF air strikes on suspected militant camps in Pakistan-administered Kashmir, the tactical agility and adaptability of PAF over firepower volume, and the moral and mental dimensions of warfare.
