Indian Special Forces

One of the best is Op Mohra, Uri 2015 by 4 PARA.

Led by then Major now Lt Col. Mukul Sharma along with Capt. Arjun.

Till the time 4 PARA arrived fidayeens had killed 5-6 infantry men. They separated and engaged the SF from different places around the base.

Each one of them was chased and killed one by one

To be on par with the Amerikis you will need

1. a Cohesive National Security Directive
2. billions of dollars to burn through equipment material and men in training. Even NATO don't have so much of a budget.
- Why was the Anti Piracy op Marcos did (blue water jump) last year worth applauding -? because it was a theoretical op - practiced very very few times and by very few men amongst Marcos - MARCOS doesnt have the budget to do such scale/distance training op
- ++ Add the IAF in this as well.

Support / Intel etc comes later
Lets not even talk about the sheer assets American SOF it’s probably more than the Indian military combined.
 
MARCOS is able to do due to very unique situation they find themselves in

1. Higher Per Capita Budget
2. No competing budgetary politics.
3. Higher Education of Command and greater global exposure of Command
4. Marcos is ONE unit. Each para sf is its own seperate unit.




The second Image- i agree - an ambush is bread and butter of any SF unit. There is no need to hand out medals for executing the bare minimum no? correct me if i am wrong.
Alsothe Indian army medal system is very, very weird.

Have seen some sena medal citations which could’ve been shaurya chakra contenders and vice versa.

Generally historically we have been very very stingy (unlike the Americans). But thats been changing of late.
 
But para sf has 1:27 kill ratio in valley. They operate in different terrain, they need light eqp profile. Blah blah
It’s not even an argument anymore, it’s just the Jai Ho gang desperately trying to justify Para’s poor equipment profiling.


My life in a nutshell: years of opening DFI/DFB, getting disappointed, ranting a bit, taking a break, then coming back only to be disappointed again.

Yeah. There's no escape either. You've to live with what you got.
