If India and Pakistan went nuclear, what would be the impact?
Indo-Pakis War | Infographics Show
- Tensions in Kashmir, fueled by the repeal of Article 370, lead to increased violence and Pakistan's involvement in supporting militant groups. China sees an opportunity to establish supremacy at the Line of Actual Control (LAC). ๐ณ๏ธ๐ฅ
- Pakistan and China launch a two-front attack on India, with Pakistan invading from the west and China from the east. India, prepared for this scenario, goes on the offensive against Pakistan while defending the LAC. ๐๐ฎ๐ณ
- Despite initial setbacks, India pushes back against Pakistan using its superior military strength. China, realizing the situation is not in its favor, withdraws support, leaving Pakistan alone. ๐โโ๏ธ๐จ๐ณ
- Faced with a losing conventional war, Pakistan's military leadership convinces interim Prime Minister Anwar ul Haq Kakar to prepare for a nuclear strike against India. โข๏ธ๐ฃ
- Pakistan's options for launching nuclear weapons are limited due to India's naval presence and air superiority. The Shaheen 2 medium-range ballistic missile becomes Pakistan's primary choice. ๐
- India detects Pakistan's nuclear preparations and readies its missile defense systems, including the Pradyumna Ballistic Missile Interceptor (PAD) and Ashwin Ballistic Missile Interceptor (AAD). ๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ๐ก๏ธ
- As a last resort, Pakistan launches a nuclear attack targeting New Delhi and other strategic locations along the India-Pakistan border. India's missile defense systems intercept many of the missiles, but some still reach their targets. โข๏ธ๐ฅ
- In retaliation, India launches a devastating nuclear counterattack, targeting Pakistan's major cities and military installations. Pakistan's leadership is wiped out, and its nuclear launch sites are destroyed. ๐ ๐
- The nuclear exchange leaves both countries devastated, with millions of casualties and widespread destruction. India, though severely impacted, retains more of its command structure and military capabilities. ๐ดโโ ๏ธ๐ค
- In the aftermath, India focuses on securing Kashmir, reinforcing its defenses against China, and managing the diplomatic consequences of the nuclear war. ๐๐ผ
