The guy wearing multicam gloves seem to be wearing a nice chest rig.

Do you see LBVs used extensively except for maybe recon?

Marcos exists and look at them. Para has no excuse to be like this.

Agree with LBV having bad ergonomics. Para SF operates for days outside their temporary bases unless they are hastily air dropped into a search and destroy operation. The best thing for that purpose is a heavy bag, slick pc and a split chest rig(they have that, but the quality of that stuff isn't top tier).

I get your point but marcos don't usually operates way off their base in bandipora, they don't have a great track record whenever they go for such prolonged ops.

Oh no I only compared marcos in equipment. I agree they should stick to what they're meant to do anyways.

I'd say a smersh with a ferro slickster would be absolutely gorgeous.

Aren't they part of new orders?
Or did we order them previously?

This is the only info available

Armasen SF rig with Razor back should be their new option

Something like dz rig with slick plate carrier would also be better

This could work as not only for kashmir but for every other terrain and mission as well with minor adjustment

I doubt indian company are working on something like this indian company should work on this load bearing belt system lot of other modern system are also avalible

Not the razorback, but their Millitant rig. Serves the purpose and easy to be worn over PC. Its not listed on their website.

Any of the SFs having SG 553? Heard NSG had them but what quantity

And which Para units have standardized AT rigs [like minimum 50% of the unit]?

Its just too confusing, we have to make a list or something about what unit is going after what brand - Olive planet, cliff climbers ....

2. Guns - Adani PLR, SSS, BF (ARDE Carbine), Dvipa Defence (ARDE UGRAM), Astr.
3. NVG, Thermal Scope - Tonbo, TASL, MKU
4. SDR Radio - Tejas Network (TATA).

Even an Dedicated SF Aerial branch can be equipped.
1. Troop Transport - MI-17 V5, Rudra, Dhruv (Future IMRH)
2. Larger Troop Transport - Chinnok (Buy it from Daddy Trump)

ISR Platform

Armchair general wishlist.

Millitant chest rig is different from smersh or dz rig thease are webbing i am sure someone have discussed about them here

View: https://youtu.be/iUCrK_punWE?si=CL5e3etYXAKLBDhd

Generally with webbing or something like dz rig /smersh/plce all are from cold war but still used still much more practical thease were created to be modular and so that soldier can carry sustained ration ammo and other things for more than 24 hours basically what para need they will also go great with infantry
They have generally
4 magzine pouch each carry 2 magzine
And three big pouch for other shit
