Indian Defense Acquisitions - Co- Developments and Production

Yeah, like a full on combat gas-mask. But that they will carry if they're preparing for tear-gas. This weapon is aimed at the majority of under-equipped, often ill-trained terrorists who carry cheap AK's and crude explosives.

Tarun, there are crude methods to minimise the effect of tear gas as well. In 26/11, the handler was advising the terrorist bastards on in hotel rooms to fight the effects of tear gas by dipping a towel into a bucket of water and then swinging it in the air.

Anyway, why give away our tactics beforehand, let there be an element of surprise, no?

Which is why they're using something as extreme as that chilli. You can use a damp towel to breathe, but that won't protect your eyes (even in the case of tear gas). A blind terrorist is a dead one.

Tarun, the point is that they could(an 0.000001% probability perhaps) develop some crude method to minimise its effect by this prior knowledge. Why give them even that chance? Further, why take our 'shock and awe' element? I am against these revelations only.

They already know India has and uses tear gas. Hence they prepare for it. If they carry combat gas masks, that's enough preparation for these chilli bombs. This non-lethal weapon is targeted at those who don't carry combat gas masks around. Chilli bombs isn't any much more of a shock and awe than tear gas. Only a lot more effective.

There's a 0.000001% probability of everything. Including a discovery that we're not alone in the universe, and my cat starting to talk to me. Oh the surrealism

India probes sabotage behind huge arms depot fire

India probes sabotage behind huge arms depot fire



A huge fire destroyed about 200 tonnes of arms and ammunition in one of India's biggest army depots early on Friday, triggering an investigation into possible sabotage, defence officials said.

The fire broke out at the army's Panagarh depot in West Bengal and officials said they were surprised how such a blaze could have broken out in a high security zone.

"We are exploring all possible angles," an army official said. The store has been completely gutted, Mahesh Upasani, a defence spokesman said.

India remains jittery about the threat of militant attacks. A blast in Pune killed 17 people last month, the first major militant strike since the 2008 Mumbai attacks.

Fire at Indian Army Munition Depot


Kolkata: An official says a fire at one of the Indian army's largest arsenals has triggered a series of explosions but caused no injuries.

Military spokesman Mahesh Upasani says army firefighters took almost three hours to extinguish the blaze. He says the cause of Friday's fire is being investigated.

The explosions at Panagarh army base, about 75 miles west of Kolkata, caused panic in nearby villages, sending people running from their homes.

The extent of the damage was not immediately known.

The Press Trust of India news agency says the fire gutted a storehouse containing large quantities of small arms and ammunition.

Wow! What the motherf^ckin'' f^ck!

200 tonnes of arms & ammunition down the drain.

Paanagarh is one of the Army's largest arms depots. How do you have such a goddamn blaze break out in such a high security zone?

If it was sabotage, it was likely one of their own.

Hang the motherf^ker by the balls!

This and the heavy machine gun news is revealing too many holes in Indian military planning and security

 

[Rage]

This video says the fire broke out in Warehouse # 6 at 1:40 AM, but was quelled by the Army's 'Crisis Management team' that arrived on site in the first five minutes and dispatched the fire by about 3:30 AM. The go-down apparently only contained small arms & ammunition, so the loss was not as severe. 20 villages neighbouring the storage facility were vacated, the cause of the disastrous event has not yet been ascertained, but is being viewed as a major security foul up with repercussions across the country because of the precedence of this arms depot.

 

[S.A.T.A]

India in general and east coast in particular are under one of the worst spell of heat this summer,so it wont be surprising if the unusually high temperature caused this flare up.Sabotage cant be ruled out but its extremely difficult given the high security surrounding the area.

Bwahahaha! Look what I found!

Dude having seen those video's , i can only live in fear of its Bio-weapon variant.

I hope they don't use these on crowds.
This thing seems to practically incapacitate people into submission.

 

[Solid Beast]

That's amazing people eat the Bhut Jolokia to fight the heat according to what I read on page 1...really? That takes some courage and skill. I can take lots of heat but I stop at Habanero. Don't think I can go up 3 times more on the scoville.

So the season of infiltration has started.

infiltration is all year.

our jawans need to maintain vigil at all times

 

[Agantrope]

So the season of infiltration has started.

Government is doing stupidity by reducing the troops there; Everyone knows what happened when troops reduction happens.

 

[ajtr]

well march is the time when snow started melting and these summer months is the time when infiltration remains at peak.

Indians in Kashmir need to return to normal lives.

they cant do so under Martial Law. and high troop levels.

We should try to maintain as a low a presence as possible, especially now that most infiltration bids are stopped at the borders them selves .

Else we need to follow the chinese style of migrating the people from other parts of the country to there. But again that was willing prevented by the Congress to secure the vote bank.
