IAF Chief AP Singh Details India-Specific Theaterisation Plan and Operational Priorities
Air Chief Marshal AP Singh outlined the Indian Air Force's theaterisation plan, emphasizing a structure tailored to India's security needs rather than foreign models. He advocated for centralised control with decentralised execution and phased implementation to maintain operational readiness. Singh highlighted Operation Sindoor as a successful example of joint command and asset reallocation. The theaterisation plan aims to integrate the Army, Navy, and Air Force through three regional commands but faces delays due to differing views among the services on command structures and fighter asset deployment.
