Yeah you are correct, however this means that Indian troops will have no air support while Chinese troops attack with full air support

The Chinese outnumber us in everything the best tactic we can use is to evade and then surprise them by flanking them

Supposing we bomb down all road passes in Arunachal after a few Chinese troops cross over, we can surround and defeat them

Defense in Arunachal will be challenging as the Chinese will throw everything they have on us

The only air support would be given by attack helicopters which are in low numbers in comparison to the PLA

Another fact is that China has strategic bombers so to counter this threat the IAF fighters will not be able to provide air support which is not the case with the PLA Air force

Main problem will be the fact that China holds the high ground and it will be easier for China to orchestrate offensives

Hiding Anti air missiles in the valleys would also be beneficial to counter Chinese air supremacy

Indian Special Forces are also capable of starting insurgencies in Tibet

The Chinese will not be able to operate jets deep into Indian territory as chinese pilots are not trained enough for long range missions unlike the IAF pilots
