against targets inside undisputed Pakistani territory, out open-source evidence suggested that the strike was unsuccessful."
Michael Sheldon (March 1, 2019)
I am mentioning my views over this complex matter with a few sources as reference, that are considered more accurate on international scales.
According to Indian Defense sources they used Spice-200 Precision Guided missiles in this attack.These missiles are almost 100% accurate and there is almost zero percent chance of missing the target.These missiles use GPS Coordinates and if those coordinates are provided accurately, they will hit the exact same target with 99.8% of accuracy.
These missiles are so accurate that missing the target by the margin they missed, is almost impossible. Missing the target with this much distance is very surprising.
Now a few questions rises in our minds :-
1. "Did they provided the wrong coordinates intentionally to avoid any serious retaliation from Pakistan?"
2. Were they just trying to impress their voters and were selling a wrong story for political interests....?
3. They might be trying to set a new example but without hurting anyone and making sure that Pakistan will not reply...?
So as per my analysis based upon the data available, the missiles fell on-the same side of the building at almost same distances from their target.
And the possibilities are :-
1. This could be a systematized error of coordinates.
2. This might be due to a miscalculation of altitude coordinates by the Indian Air Force.
3. They might have perceived these coordinates wrong.
This type of poor showcase of professionalism from the lndian Air force is a big question mark on their abilities.
Forces around the world use this type of Precision Guided Missiles very accurately and never miss the target. But it took years of precice technology awareness and training. And hence it's proven that without expertise and required skill, Even Precision Guided missiles are useless.
And here are some references from some well known organizations :-
1. Reuters
The Reuters published their story with a title of
"Indian Attacks in Pakistani territory was the proof of un professionalism of Indian Airforce personnels "
2. Some Images produced by Planet Labs Inc, a San Francisco based private satellite operator, "show at least six buildings on the madrasa site on March 4, six days after the airstrike."
Still, no high-resolution satellite images were publicly available. But the images from Planet Labs, which show details as small as "72 cm (28 inches), offer a clearer look at the structures the Indian government said it attacked."
(March 6, 2019)
"The image is virtually unchanged from an April 2018 satellite photo of the facility. There are no discernible holes in the roofs of buildings, no signs of scorching, blown-out walls, displaced trees around the madrasa or other signs of an aerial attack."
(March 6, 2019)
"The images cast further doubt on statements made over the last eight days by the Indian government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi that the raids, early on Feb."
(March 6, 2019)
"India's foreign and defence ministries did not reply to emailed questions sent in the past few days seeking comment on what is shown in the satellite images and whether they undermine its official statements on the airstrikes."
(March 6, 2019)
"With very high resolution imagery we can see the picture in more detail. The image captured with Worldiew-2 of the buildings in question shows no evidence of a bombing having occurred.
There are no signs of scorching, no large distinguishable holes in the roofs of buildings and no signs of stress to the surrounding vegetation".

on the morning of 27 February and accessed by ASPI, calls this claim into question. No evidence of damage to the facility or nearby areas is visible on the images."
