    Given the ham-handedness of Indian propagandists in English-speaking social media, if their pilots are of a similar quality, then it may have just been a skill issue rather than a demonstration of the quality of the hardware.

        I think he’s saying that BJP propoganda on social media is so ham fisted that, if Indian pilots are of a similar quality, the planes may have just fallen out of the sky.

        Pretty standard for a Western layperson’s idea of insightful analysis of geopolitical issues in Asia lol.
