After searching the words in the caption, it was revealed that the scenes in the viral video are from a game.

The same video was found to have been shared by a YouTube channel called Battle Dragon on November 7, 2024.

The video’s description states that “this video is a virtual game simulation.We will publicize the tragedy of war by reconstructing the battle scene. Built using ARMA 3, ARMA Reforger.”

We came across a similar video on the same YouTube channel, posted on July 15, 2023. 

The caption reads “A-10 Warthog Shot Down by Anti-Air Tank Firing Missile – Tracer – Military Simulation – ArmA 3.”

Another video like this was also uploaded on a different YouTube channel on November 20, 2022, which you can see below.

CONCLUSION

The viral video is not of the India-Pakistan war. It is actually a clip from a military simulation video game called Arma 3. The game footage is being shared online with a misleading claim.
