great video Kunal sir, it shows hand held thermal, Thermal on post, INSAS with jungle camouflager painted on it. Plus also shows the tough situation in which our soldiers works and how they used AAA gun against enemy post.

That's the ZU-23, i.e. Zenitnaya Ustanovka, originally designed for Ack-Ack fire, but it works even better when shooting from a hilltop across a valley to the hill on the other side. This is a fantastic weapon, packs a lot of punch, often mounted on the back of UralAZ lorries and very easily manoeuvreable, i.e. one can swing the two barrels left-right or up-down very quickly.

well the story is that they took a part the AAA and then carry it on their back to the post, then re assembled it, AAA is good for bunker busting. But again babus (auditors) at MOD had objected using the same, saying that AAA ammo cannot be used for bunkers, IA was furious, then finally babus came around. Now they are allowed to do it.
