Nsg is one dimensional with expertise in one type of warfare.

Its wont be fair on the NSG to compare it with Para and vice versa.

The operations of Para will be written in golden letters in the history of Indian special operations.

When any defence expert in the future will sit down and read about their operations he will come to know what kind of men Para SF were.

Actions and in this case kills talk louder than anyones sweet biased words.

Why compare them? They have VERY different roles, it's nonsensical to even go down this path.

To a layperson, NSG dresses in black color and is called with a fancy name "black cats" .... moreover there is a halo build up over the years. These guys seem really cool and awesome.

"Para SF" - first of all what does this "para" mean hainji? Aur dikhne mein they look like any Army or even worst CRPF guy... thats why you have questions like how do they compare to "Ghataks" ... the latter conjure up images of Sunny Deol taking a MG and capturing Paki posts all by himself.

Mavericks!

Below capture is from Patriot CIJWS episode. Seems to be a captain from SG or some special unit but interestingly does not have Balidaan badge or even parachute wings. Guessing could be from MI or other stream.

@Bornubus @reddevil9 can we get a proper close up of this badge?

NSG is drawn from all arms of the Army. Some may be from Para SF.

It would be better to say that NSGs airborne and under water capabilities is only coz of Para boys.

NSG boys go back to infantry units and the talent gets lost but Para retains these guys and puts them in HIT teams as instructor or members.

So never underestimate Para capabilities in the ops NSG does.

National Security Guard.

During the course to be a National Security Guard-NSG Operative , the combatant has to go through Combat Room Shoot , where the combatant enters a dark room, adjusts to the darkness and engages the target with either a torch light or a compatible laser image intensifier - all within 3 seconds. And not just in darkness but under the strobe lights of a discotheque as well, which are some of the most difficult shots to take. "We train them to take only head shots. And two at a go - the double tap system. It's to ensure neutralisation of the target. In the close hostage-terrorist situations we face there is little scope for body shots," says Colonel Dutta. To hone shooting skills the training centre has an Electronic Combat Shooting Range built at a cost of over Rs.1 crore. Divided into 11 zones and spread over 400 metres, a recruit has to cover this distance in just six minutes, 30 seconds and fire at 29 targets along the way.
The target exposure time is between two and three seconds and the targets are of all kinds - vertically rising, popping out, moving and rotating. The faster a person engages the target the more points he scores. It is not just non-reactive targets that they practice against. In twin room shooting, rival combatants enter contiguous rooms and watch each other's movements on a screen. They are supposed to neutralise each other by shooting at the screen. The exercise test the combatants' response time and accuracy under near-field conditions. The men are also put through a battle inoculation program where they have to stand right next to the target while one of their partners shoots at it. "They have to become used to live bullets flying under their noses.
Also the person shooting is conscious that if he misses by even a couple of inches the bullet is going to hit his partner." says an instructor. They don't wear the kavach either, a bullet-proof vest, designed by Colonel Dutta himself. The vest can withstand an AK-47 or a 7.62mm carbine shot at point blank range. Members of the unit are assigned partners soon after completion of basic training and they train and even go on leave together. But as crack professionals, they are under orders to shoot their partner if he makes a single threatening step detrimental to the security of a VIP. On an average, a commando fires 2000 rounds of live ammunition during practice sessions throughout the year. This is apart from the two months that units have to spend in alert status and for whom it's a daily stint at the range. "I did more firing in a week of alert status than in my entire 10-year stay in the Army," says an NSG Officer. On average a person fires close to 14,000 rounds over a period of two months in alert status. The target strike rate has to be above 85% for a person to remain in the force.

So these are our "non state actors" according to Pakistan :biggrin2:

I was wondering if any Special unit in South Asia needs quick experience in a war zone they can either go to Afghanistan or LOC.

How come these guys have never been photographed in the field?

One of them (above outfit) had reviewed the JVPC/ MSMC for us few days back.

That's his desk

PARA COMMANDO...sirf naam hi kaafi hein.

Look at the reputation these guys have and the distance between them and the terrorists.

The short burts are standard Para shooting style and the long bursts are from the terrorists.
