    Our soldiers in war time are going to be runing up and down mountains with normal kit already in 50+kgs, in deserts and in Jungles. They dont need the helmet to be 100% bullet proof. they need a balance between protection and weight

    Sorry but i disagree with you. The NSG even during 26/11 was a POTENT CT unit with one of the highest number of high risk CT/HRT operations across the world. To say they didnt have the basic skills to train a SWAT unit is a slap on the face of NSG - NSG had other structural problems - which is...
