However, as we investigated, we came to know that the claim was false. The viral video is not a real one. It’s a simulation game called Arma 3. Here’s the fact check.

Fact Check 

We started our investigation by taking some screenshots from the viral video and conducting a reverse image search. This led us to a YouTube channel where a longer version of the viral video was uploaded on 1 January 2021. The caption of the video read, “A-10 Warthog vs Anti-Air Tank – Missiles and Tracers firing – GAU-8 Avenger – ArmA 3  Simulation”

We found a similar video on the same YouTube channel uploaded on 15 July 2023 with the caption, “A-10 Warthog Shot Down by Anti-Air Tank firing Missile – Tracer – Military Simulation – ArmA 3”

A similar video uploaded on another YouTube channel on 20 November 2022 can be seen below. According to the caption, the video shows a game of Arma 3.

This makes it clear that the viral video shows a simulation game called Arma 3.

Conclusion 

From our investigation, we can say that the claim is false. The viral video doesn’t show a clip of the war between India and Pakistan. In fact, the video is not real. It’s a simulation game video called Arma 3.
