In Blackhawk Down a Delta Force guy threw a grenade into third story window of a building from about two blocks away. Can MARCOS do that?

DMF is that suppose to show the superiority of China's army?
A soldier is an all rounder. and no, they are not all the same. experience and tactics.
If you actually ever talked to someone who served as a ground troop you'd understand.

The photos I post here are for some scout solder under training from China's army, I did not claim that China's army superior, to the contrary, I said " no difference", you did not look at my post carefully, only one short line, you still miss it, Haha.
Training is impotent, to keep the soldiers physically fit, and get some skills for shooting and combat. But the key is how to carry out the mission, that depends on planning, and technique support, the solders mind and body. but these days, I think the technology is playing an increasing roll in military affairs.

Naval commandos to get advanced procure combat system.

New Delhi: The Indian Navy is is planning to procure advanced Integrated Combat System (ICS) for its elite Marine Commandos (MARCOS) to add more teeth to its special operations.
The navy wants the ICS for effective command, control and information sharing to maximise capabilities of individuals and groups of the MARCOS – the elite special operations unit, while engaging enemies.
"We want the ICS to provide enhanced capabilities such as tactical awareness and fighting ability in hostile environment and a network which can enable Group Commanders to remotelymonitor and control operations," Navy officials told PTI here.
They said the ICS would help in integrating an individual sailor's capability of day and night surveillance, ballistic protection, communication and firepower through an integrated networkat individual and group level.
Initiating the procurement process through a Request for Information (RFI), navy's directorate of special operations and Diving has sought details from global vendors about the ICS, which should have gear for both individual and group uses.
The individual equipment required by the navy in the ICS includes light weight helmets, head-mounted displays, tactical and soft ballistic vests along with communication equipment.
The group-level gear requirements include command and control and surveillance systems along with high speed communication equipment.
The navy wants the integrated surveillance devices to have sight for the sniper, laser range finder and long range thermal imager (medium and long range) and near IR laser pointer for a combat group to undertake surveillance, reconnaissance and targeting.
It also wants that the ICS should be compatible with all the advanced assault rifles and close-quarter combat weapons which are used by elite troops.
The navy has recently started inducting the Israeli Tavor 21 Assault Rifles for the MARCOS.
As per the RFI, the Navy wants the electronic devices and sub parts of the ICS to be operablein tropical, cold, desert, marine and coastal climates along with being waterproof.
After gathering information from the interested vendors, the navy will issue a global Request for Proposal (RFP) soon.

Thats what I mean. "no difference"? You're saying your "scouts" are no different from the Marcos?
There is a gap between PLA training and Indian training.
PLA trains in large wargames,
the IA specializes.
The PLA throw their ground troops through burning hoops to achieve a sound mind to prepare them for the horrors of a battle field.
IA does this to a lesser extent.
IA trains soldiers in marksmanship, something the PLA only recently started doing.
There is a difference expecially with the pictures you posted and Marcos.
HAHA
