More than not, I have seen such showmanship of poor training or awareness. Are we doomed to stay like this, does the officer cadre also suffer from such goofups. I guess we are doomed to remain medicore then.On surface level things look quite good. Modern rifles, all with optics, EyePros, Anti-UAV, good gears.
Someone might even comment badass.
But anyone with good understanding of weapons would see a serious problem here. Not just a lack of modern technologies or procurement issues, but problems with training and the attitude.
The only thing this poor grunt is seeing despite having a 600m rifle and a good german RDS is sadly just the top of his rifle's Picatinny rail.

This is why any serious operator would have used a risers; so that his line-of-sight and weapon's sight picture could've coincided in the first place.

This is not a lack of technology thing, this is simply a lack of awareness. Just like how a bunch of guys completely blocked their sight picture with a flashlight and no one questioned why.

No bp plates look at the way they hold Sigs like it's .22 rifle ( remember me of NCC weapon firing ) how will they manage huge recoil of 7.62x51

hope these grenades did not have splinters. other wise they could have hurt soldiers.
You don't have to go that far. Even peeking over a cover is a nono with the patka. In Alpha's case he's often ill-informed about an item, and then proceeds to fight tooth and nail to defend his flawed take. The Arjun mbt spat on youtube with another equally ill-informed and biased exfart "redeffect", put Alpha on the map. His videos are largely unwatchable drivel modeled after ssb/upsccrack prep shorts. He suffers from the same ailment faced by most desi tubers, talking too fast. I don't know why Indians are always in a hurry to get their words out.I've a serious question.
Who is this Alpha Defense guy?
I'm noticing him from DFI days. It always seems like he lurks here on DFI, goes through all the discussion we've and then puts a video or tweet to defend each and every mediocrity.
Patka this, Patka that....this is a Patka

Even if we leave aside all the terminal ballistics of a human cranium taking 1.5kJ of energy on a material that neither deforms nor disintegrates the problem is, only the green part has any protection (a steel belt with Kevlar and foam) and the top red part is just a layer of thin aramide.
And what's the most common position a soldier would be in? Prone

Now tell me which part of his body would be most exposed to incoming fire from 12 o'clock and what protection he'd have against that wearing a Patka.
Look at weight distribution pc need to be well fitted and adjusted imagine running in it should be stablePlate"less" carrier

Ok why the fuck did we decide to go for these goofy looking helmet setup .
They could have easily brought some COMTACS to did the same work (they would work even better) , this looks more like a tankers helmet that what an infantry helmet must look like .
>buy a proper battle rifleit's gonna be real comfortable alright

Back in 2017 PASGT style MKU Ballistic Helmets were a huge deal for the IA. It was first of it's kind deal in which 50,000 out of total 1.58 Lakh came with integrated communication. But in most cases they don't use those INT COMs, instead standard Motorola Earpiece & Walkie Talkie. Forget about the COMTACs, even our SFs don't have those as standard accessory.View attachment 10367
