Dia Hadid: 中国制造的歼-10C“猛龙”战斗机在印巴冲突中首次亮相，这可能对未来产生深远的影响。这款战机性能与美国的F-16或法国的“阵风”相当，被多国军队使用。尽管巴基斯坦声称击落了三架印度“阵风”，但实际可能只击落了一架，但歼-10C的亮相仍然备受关注。下一次印巴冲突可能会更加严重，因为印度总理莫迪誓言下次会更严厉地打击巴基斯坦。印度官员也公开表示，对印度领土的恐怖主义行为将受到军事回应，这预示着未来的危机可能会非常严重。然而，巴基斯坦从中国购买的防空系统在冲突中似乎基本失效。 Brendan Mulvaney: 巴基斯坦使用中国飞机和导弹击落了印度先进的法国“阵风”战斗机，引起中国社交媒体的广泛关注。即使中国的武器不如美国及其盟友的武器那么好，但也足够好，在下一次战斗中可能就足够了。我认为我们应该给予中国的军事能力足够的尊重。 Aisha Sadiqa: 巴基斯坦军队使用的武器装备有72%到80%来自中国，这让许多印度人觉得中国在与巴基斯坦联手对抗印度。我认为这加剧了印度对中国的负面看法。 Ashok Kumar: 巴基斯坦使用了中国提供的全部武器，这使得这场冲突间接变成了与中国的战斗，也让五月份的四天冲突比以往的印巴冲突更加严重。我认为这使得局势更加复杂和危险。 Christopher Clary: 中国一直不愿公开扮演支持巴基斯坦的角色，只是口头支持和鼓励克制。但我认为中国将继续向巴基斯坦提供武器，以应对其与印度的下一次冲突，中国有军事能力支持像巴基斯坦这样的国家。中国的策略似乎是在幕后支持，避免直接冲突。
