Indian Special Forces

1000127887.webp
What kind of a nation are we? Something that died in the mid 90s couldn't be rectified ever again. No specialized equipment, no primary intel gathering capacity, no specialized training. Only thing left in the SF is the unquestioned ability to grow long beards ig.

No foresight going forward too. Heck even infantry has new weapons and sights rn. But what would one do even if you give new stuff. Grip the mag when there's a vertical foregrip already. No nightfighting capability because only 2 in the squad have proper nvgs. Like which other SF uses monoculars in 2024? And the moment we see a single piece of PVS 31s in an expo, we jerk off like crazy. Training ke naam pe sirf pitthoo leke lamba douro bass. Counter ambush, cqb, kuch nahi karna. Har baar international exercise meh jake beizzati karwana.

No serious nation functions like this. Only josh is keeping this machinery running. But for long?

This reminds me that Lt Gen PC Katoch trained the 10 Para SF team that particpated in Airborne Africa. This was spoken by Brigadier AS Ranade of 10 Para who participated in those exercises in his recent podcast with Col Tyagvir Raghava

This guy is a true gem, from Pakis to Chinese, from Khalistanis to LTTE, from Naga millitants to Kashmir millitants - this guy has fought every enemy of independent India.

I like him cause he makes sense, read his book on Indian special forces, many of the things he discusses have been said before in this forum however, he does not face the same backlash as Maj Sahani by the Jai Ho gang because he is a very well reputed officer, some say he's the Jock Lewis of Para SF.

Up to date mandates??
Mordern equipments??
New gen NVGs?
Specialised tactics?

Ye sab kia hota he bhai bhag ke aag ki ring se kudna he to bata.
 
was the para airbone troops demand that the wanted to be called SF (why?) or was this decision taken by leadership .
If this decision of mixing two very different elements was taken by leadership what purpose did it even serve apart from increasing expenditure .
I don't see this having any effect on their combat effectiveness as they are still the same equipment and training wise .
 
"Some Army Chief will have to muster courage to undo the adverse fallout of the actions taken by Gen Shankar Roychowdhury on Special Forces"

None of them are going to risk this after what the govt apparatus along with the enemies within the Army leadership did to VK Singh. Bipin Rawat might have been one of them to risk it, but he is gone so we can just speculate.

Everyone wants SF tab for salary..its very simple.

Too many SF too less budget.

Rest is a problem of recruiting wrong people for the wrong job.

Most if not all Officers show an attitude where they wanted to get something from SF…NO ONE talked about giving back to SF.

With such mindset the organisation looses.

How long can you run a force on the principles of Brits?

Its a really simple to understand problem and hard to solve…And mind you i dont see this improving in the next 2 decades aslo.

VK singh and his supporters were plunged into a quicksand , he got lucky that BJP came into power else he would have been in jail .

I often heard a quote - "the army has gone to the dogs". Now, I truly feel that this quote is absolutely correct. Infact, you can easily identify these dogs. Weaklings, all of them, spineless bootlickers, who show their "shaurya" only on podcasts, after retirement.
The current COAS should have never become chief, specially after the casualties suffered under his watch at NC.

Could you be more specific about casualties suffered under current COAS.

If you can’t then …..shut up.

What all happened in Jammu was under his command
He didn't do anything iota of effort to stop or reciprocate the consist ambushes infact under his command many trts infiltrated
Under his command we suffered 3 beheading including an officer
And no revenge has been taken and I consider head of a Pakistani officer as revenge
He was the guy who signed the removal of RR battalion who were mad coz their boy's head is missing and mind u still missing
Want more details please Google or scroll dfi thread on ci/ct it
We can't discuss 1000s of pages again just to prove it to u sir
 
Uncle ji, I am not here to service your ass.. get the data yourself about the casualties in J&K, when the current COAS was C-in-C NC.
If you can't do that, bugger off.
You think anybody names and get away with your third rate information and call it truth. You should be ashamed
