A repeat of the 1962 India-China war is not possible now as the Indian armed forces have enhanced their capability, Indian Air Force chief Air Chief Marshal P.V. Naik said.
A repeat of 1962 is not possible now. I am confident, are you? Naik said, asserting IAF's enhanced capability. Indian armed forces were humiliated by Chinese forces in a short but bloody war over boundary disputes in 1962. "We are building up infrastructure, but it is not adversary-specific. It is capability enhancement... There should not be lack of confidence in the armed forces among the public. We are prepared for any eventuality," Naik added. Naik last month created a flutter when he admitted that the IAF's force level was one-third that of China and thus "inadequate".
