that’s because erdagon is afraid of another coup from Turkish military, imagine buying these sort of things while Turkish economy is Down, tourists are not coming.

word is that naxals wanted negotiators named from govt side, and govt obliged. will have to wait and see how true this is.

So now YouTube is blocking naxal related content..

ambush site is 12km from base, out of range even if they had 120 mm mortar at the camp. smoke rounds from 105 mm LFG perhaps(17 km range), but it's not part of the equipment used in anti-naxal ops. ======== Chhattisgarh Maoist attack: How a massive security operation was planned and how it...

So the journo who asked the question in the amit shah press conference about the “dialogue with naxals” was a planted question.

Yes, the possibility of this outcome exists too.

not sure if drone(any) can be silent. we need to remember something, people like us living in cities have forgotten what silence means given all the machines that keep whirring around us the whole day. jungles are a whole different story. I remember reading articles during afghan war, where...

the scenario I was talking about is the case where UAV are used just ahead or during a particular op. that is rest of period skies would be clear, but naxals spotting a lone UAV doing circles. The work around that muricans employed to avoid giving away their plans, is that there will always be...

CAS is out of question because even IA doesn’t use CAS in COIN. as far as recon goes, how will they recognise in all this melee which group is which? given the current strategy of anti-naxal ops is to fight like a guerrilla. Keep in mind this ambush would have easy been spread over 1-2 sq...

It was clear cut for Sri Lanka because their enemy was distinguished by ethnic, linguistics & geographic lines. Which is not the case here.

I guess Some aerial surveillance is always better than no surveillance at all.

The fact that Rustom 1 was being tested means there are attempts being made to rectify situational awareness aspect. If it hadn’t crashed, we wouldn’t have known such a project is being tried out.

Security forces have been at it for 30 years, they know what they are doing, they are the ones putting their own and their own colleagues lives at risk on a daily basis. To say they don’t know how to do their jobs is rather disrespectful to the lakhs of security forces which worked in those...

And I am saying no amount of tactics can prevent a planned ambush. It’s a constant battle between tactics used by security forces and counter tactics used by naxals, and vice versa. Need not jump to conclusions right away, wait for official report on what exactly happened.

And the ultimate tactic of which succeeded in reducing their casualties is that they are using now, is to avoid going outside the barracks itself, except for airport security convoys that too is handled mostly by private security.

I am questioning the argument being put forth that superior kit and equipment reduces casualties.

By your logic, murican forces in Iraq & Afghanistan should not have been attacked beyond the first year. Muricans had everything with them drone, satellites, superior firepower etc etc.. And yet IED attacks did happen on murican forces, why? keep in mind IED attacks on murican forces reduced...
