Here is all you need to know about the AMRAAM Missile which India recovered proving Pak F-16 jet tried to attack Indian military bases

Pakistan brazenly denied India's claim of their F-16 Aircraft being shot, the DG ISPR has further claimed that Pakistan Air Force did not use F-16 during the operation and maintained that no Aircraft of Pakistan has been struck. 

Exposing another lie after accessing pictures of the downed Pakistan Air Force F-16, now a piece of AMRAAM missile fired at India has been retrieved.

On Wednesday, Republic TV had first accessed and authenticated visuals of the Indian Air Force scattering Pakistan's formation and causing the F-16s to scarper, while another video captured the exact moment that the F-16 was shot down, crashing down toward Earth, no more than a ball of flame, with the locals who shot the video making abundantly clear that a parachute had also deployed as the pilot ejected.

Later, in a classic case, the Pakistani pilot who ejected from the F-16 was identified and taken into custody by his own country which took hours to correct its blunder. Pakistan also barred its media from disclosing that its fighter jet was downed.

After IAF foiled Pakistan's attempt to attack military installations on Wednesday, Pakistan a day after pleading to 'give peace a chance' tried to again violate India's airspace by intrusion on Thursday morning.  

Tensions steeply escalated between the two when Islamabad responded with a military confrontation to New Delhi's counter-terrorism operation on Pak-backed Jaish-e-Mohammed terror camps, who claimed responsbility of the ghastly Pulwama attack that martyred 40 jawans.
