At no point did Nithin Gokhale said that black top is under chinese control. What he said that there was a race between two and we are at the top while chinese are on nearby ridges. So peak is with us and surrounding areas are with chinese as per my understanding. I chinese had the top they wouldnt be running like dog who got petrol put into his ar*e.
He did say it. Explicitly.

What payload are they going to carry then?
4 hand grenades each or white flags?
Theoretically it is a serious threat though especially as a diversion tactic to pull our AF from west to east so pakis can attack. Any idea where carrier is at the moment?

I know SSB very well, in our time it was called SRB means service rejection board.
I have many friends and many juniors with very little IQ and non of the OLQ but are in armed forces as COs
I know my country well.. many of my classmates from the college are IAS, IPS and IFS .... some are ministers and big property dealers who used to fail in the class and could not speak one sentence straight...

But there is a difference.. I am not speaking from my rejection syndrome... you are utterly reflecting your Rejection stamp...

The army is not an end and SSB is meant to select people on a very narrow object oriented scale... that does not make anyone a Reject... it simply means you are extraordinary to fit into that scale.. That is it..

Skukla is right... He can not be wrong in everything damn it ! In order to peddle believable nonsense, you need a lot of work and knowledge..

SFF has Seven battalions, plus some other elements... so that makes it almost a division in size.. but SFF does not work as a division,,,

When you say a division in military parlance it means a formation organized of military units meant to carry out certain military task collectively or combiningly in a certain manner.. say for example a mountain Division is capable of marching up to 20km in two days and capture an area held by an enemy brigade being self-contained and self-sufficient for five days.

SFF that way is not a division but is capable of doing much more than that... it is essentially a guerrilla Special Force cable of being airborne for tasks behind enemy lines. However, given a structure and shape of a division with all support elements... why not. It can also be a division.. all their units are capable of being part of any army formation.
But sir can SFF be termed as special forces in traditional sense? True 4 Vikas & Archers do spec ops, but from what I've read about them so far they are more equivalent to PARA (Airborne) batallions

There is no perfect system created by humans but other than some western flavor to it thats annoying, it does a decent job in picking good officers out of which some turn into brilliant officers going thru various academies.

Amid escalating tensions over territorial claims in the South China Sea, considered one of the world’s most important shipping lanes, China has warned the United States that it may be forced to strike the first blow over the latter’s increased presence in Taiwan.

Looks like its gonna be a 2 front war :lawl::lawl:

Jisko jo samjhana he samjh lo
Of course they will deny a Tibetan lost his life defending his host country.
They don't want a Tibetan uprising at this time.

Imagine, decades of training.. those old men can pass on a lot of ideas to willing folks within Tibet. Those rail roads... those bridges.. .. running several hundred meters.. wait.. they must be vulnerable. How will Beijing police that vast land if hostilities break out?

If Tibetans get wind of liberation then...

I think special forces are either 1% or less than that of total IA

No need to be disappointed, every good citizen contributes in their own way towards their country. Services is not the only way to serve country

4 Vikas and Archers are trained and tasked a bit differently. 4 Vikas is composed of Garhwali, Kumaonis and Gorkhas... Archers are Gorkhas.. Vikas Wings are Tibetans... there is a Woman Wing also..
By their training, Task and Roles - they are a Special Force. Special Force means trained, equipped and organized to carry out Specai Tasks. They have very special tasks where our other SF units would not fit..

On the 20/30 night, there were three battalions - one DOGRA unit, one PUNJAB unit, and one SFF unit that carried out the task... SFF has come to the limelight ..it is good..

I think India should recognise him as a great hero like subhas chandra bose who fought for the independence of Tibet so that many tibetaies come together to fight for their nation.
