Indian Special Forces

Mail-SPL-468-X60-2x
Ya'll Nibbiars A Force One operator Fires more rounds in a year than most army officers will in the entire career of 30 Years. And I am not joking at all.
 
Ya'll Nibbiars not just Isrealis but also Germans, Force One is probably one of the most trained forces on any State Special Forces in India. There equipments were lacking but now being upgraded.
Germans as in GSG 9?
I also heard that they train Valley QAT in Urban Ops.
Could you share some more info on this unit, if you can?
 
Incorrect.

The Russian SF has progressed by leaps and bounds since they were separated from the regular army and organised under their dedicated command called SSO.
VDV speatnaz were pretty underequipped and underprepared .

SSO they are talking about. VDV (airborne) Spetz (Special Purpose Brigades) is their "Commando" capability but primary SOF/Tip of the Spear is their SOF Command - SSO. Any unit not under SSO is not really SOF anymore (this is my 2 paisa)

If my memory serves me right only 7-8 Spetz Brigades were upskilled / upgraded alongside the raising of the SSO.

Most importantly a micro red dot sight mounted on a canted mount

As always MARCOS leading the way in gear adoption , although that sight serves no purpose in this setup but still we are moving fast
Offset red dont on this setup does not make sense, if he was running a LPVO it would make more sense.

These are Sayeret Matkal influence
They are teaching them new techniques

Many people were advocating for lpvo+red dot

Definitely it's not ideal for holo+mag setup but knowledge is being spread
Hope we will see marcos with sig-716 with lpvo and red dot on canted mount
 
1997 LoC raid by 9 SF

1997. In a retaliatory cross-border action, Major Hemonto Panging led a team of the Indian Army Special Forces tasked with neutralizing terrorists on a launch pad adjacent to a village in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (POK).
The team crossed the Line of Control and attacked the launch pad located about 4-5 kms inside POK. In this night operation, the Special Forces team neutralized about 20 terrorists. The entire operation lasted about one hour. For this daring cross-border operation inside enemy territory, Major H Panging was awarded the second Sena Medal (Gallantry).
1997. Major Hemonto was also awarded commendation by the chief of Army staff for capturing the first shoulder-fired surface-to-air missile held by terrorists in Bafliaz, Kashmir. During this operation, Major H Panging and his team also killed five terrorists, thereby preventing the possible surface-to-air missile strike on own aircraft. His team also suffered one fatal casualty, and two of his jawans were injured in this operation.
