Yea agree. I was leaving SF out of the conversation simply because they are more commando and every local/Area CO brings available/closest SF guns into the fight at the drop of a hat. SF anyways work under the operational orbat of the Area CO.You know the flying time for a heli from Srinagar to Rajouri ...must be less that an hour or maybe an hour.
A SF unit based in Srinagar could cover the entire Jammu and Kashmir region in an hour provided they get air support.
Do we have anything like this?
Because SF unit or rather companies or teams are deployed as Infantry units and are used as Infantry units
The SF units don't complain much as this gets them very easy kills and medals which helps in increments and future promotions
Someone related to me is a very high officer in the Army and he agreed that modernisation is not upto the mark but he also said that funds go unspent.
Procurement funds are different than budget.
But if SG is also doing the same - defeats the entire purpose of the Acronyms.
