J&K policeman killed by terrorists in his own house
Am I the only one who thinks that jihadi terrorists are burning the bridge by killing their own people i.e Kashmiri's and isolating themselves in their own land

watch complete video................... then comment
Very interesting. And I don't even know if our garuds use Level III Kevlar helmets. One article says its ACH which should be more inferior IMO. What helmets are suitable for protection against AK47?

Pictures from CT area ..

I don't remember exactly where I read it. I suppose it was in this forum that the guy whose patka is in the pic died due to excessive blood loss due to injury over neck area. I guess both patka and helmets have pros and cons.

I can't remember him right now but one senior member here replied me once that Patka's AK resistance capability is unquestionable...but Patka's inability to suppress/absorb the momentum and shock from high velocity bullet cause severe skull damage and death..thats why new helmets are better...how sound this point is ?

Trauma pads can be fitted inside patka helmets just as they are fitted in western style helmets.But it will add weight. In other countries the army would have funded the improvement of the patka helmets. But here in India we are dumping the indegeneous designs and going for fancy looking western style helmets which cannot withstand the AK 7.62*39 mm round which is the weapon of choice of the terrorist.
End result: as more of these helmets are inducted our casualties due to head shots will increase in kashmir.

Patkas have many variation and manufactured by many Indian companies including TATA, some of these which are in service don`t have much of trauma padding ..





Instead of going for newer design they went for these cool looking helmets which offer better trauma padding and accessories but lack protection from heavy bullets such as 7.62M43, It would have make sense if these helmet went for infantry units which are not active in CT areas ..

========





The difference between tin bucket and MKU design is that MKU got more turma padding, protection level is same as tin buckets, The ACH was used by PARA SF for some time but no longer seen again ..

The first pic has a BREN!!! Love that gun. Though heavy and 30 rounds is a bit less.

Second pic, what;s the LMG the soldier on the far right is carrying over his shoulder??

I dont think that is true.

Patka saved soldiers life....six months
ago.

Terrorists fired AK from close distance (maybe 30mts or less) that news was posted in in the tread also.

While Mukuts could withstand only 9 mm.

I wish we had tests comparing both Patka and 9mm.

If those two soldiers were wearing Patkas then they would be alive today and celebrating Diwali with their company.

Here is the link. https://www.google.co.in/amp/s/www.ndtv.com/india-news/gunner-rishi-kumar-killed-2-terrorists-bulletproof-patka-saved-his-life-1687274?amp=1&akamai-rum=off

From article's picture, it seems that soldier had no head injury let alone skull crushing damage.

Kashmir terrorist sympathisers are divided between pro-Hizb/Lashkar and pro-Ghazwat kashmiris. The divide was visible after Hizbul Mujahidin Chief Syed Salahuddin's United Jihad Council (UJC) called Ghazwat-ul-Hind's Chief Zakir Musa as "Ikhwan"

Doval is know for his mind games he plays.
My wild theory is that Indian Agencies successfully nabbed Zakir Musa sometimes during early 2017 and convinced him that whatever he was doing was wrong while making him work for India and finally released him to create Ghazwat-ul-Hind faction.

Remember, Ghazwat-ul-Hind isn't involved in any ambush or terrorist attacks since its creation.
