Let’s not knock the disciplined, innovative, and hardworking Indians. They're the ones keeping this massive country moving forward and stopping it from turning into a mess like some of our neighbors.It has nothing to do with military or procurement, it's about our DNA...we're Indians.
We're extremely emotional yet extremely thick skinned. We don't know the concept of foresight. Everything happens in a chalta hai attitude. We've idolized jugaad so much that now we don't know what's called innovation.
This is how MARCOS used to be. We didn't even had slings, used freaking jute ropes.

And now it's perhaps the only force in India that truly deserves to be called a Tier-I unit.

But for this transition we needed a 26/11 to happen. Lost 160 lives.
So wait for a proper LSCO, let us get caught with our pants down, we'll definitely get up to the standards of the fourth biggest military we're.
Though sadly we'd lose hundreds of young chaps.

The Navy, even with a tight budget, has done a solid job designing its own ships and focusing on anti-submarine warfare with dedicated ASW ships, P-8Is, and naval drones. Honestly, their understanding of threats seems sharper than other branches. And at the end of the day, they’re just as Indian as the rest of them.
