Catching up with US/EU units won't do a damn thing. They already have better operator kit on average but all that won't help because people seem to forget, the first and most important weapon in the SF is the man himself. The rest are all tools, it's not the 4 eyes NVD or a SCAR that has to clear Probation. There are literally 4-5 SF units that have the training, the balls and madness to take on any mission handed to them and you can rest easy knowing Indian SF is in those top. US, Russia, Israel, India and UK are in that list. The rest in the west are over hyped, well kitted but against a well matched enemy, they will have their asses in fire.
When niggas put Grom, Nigerian SF and other third rate SF units against Indian SF, one just has to laugh about it. Heck most Ghataks out perform most of these niggas any day and have far more real COIN/combat experience.
Command structure, kit, vehicles etc. can always improve (there is no end to it) and MOD and the services should see to it but those who claim that Indian SF are incapable or some bush wacking Nigerian or Polish SF can somehow perform better are blatant liars who can't see context, spend far too much time lusting on YouTube videos of how them other niggas operate. All the while these niggas don't know the context in which Indian SF operate and I wager that IA and the mil establishment has far more & countless success stories in COIN/ Anti Terror ops, Direct action, unconventional warfare etc. The same negros can't put two words together when one recalls tactical plan and execution of well known raids like Myanmar and POK strikes all of which involved 90% of modern tech used by the Deltas and ST6 and others. Not to mention the kills. Since the early 2000s some 34K militants have been killed and 100% of them did not die from reluctant SF operators dropping a PGM from fighter aircraft. 20 years on, the Western strategies have failed. Syria is a wasteland, same in Afghan.
There are several videos of Paki posts being obliterated at point blank by talented units often in broad day light. Niggas act like Kargil didn't happen, as if Ghataks, regular infantry often poorly equipped and kitted out, braved the most treacherous of odds to meet/greet the enemy. At the onset of that war, it was expected we'd loose around 10 for every 1 we lost, IA is literally the only army to turn the entire math around. The Pukis lost 10 for every 1 we lost.
Sure it's nice to make things easier for SF, nice shinny boots, fancy rifles, sights, etc and I am still waiting for these to fructify and slowly but surely they will happen. The SF are evolving and it is high time but changes should be for the better and not all changes are necessarily better. IA is slow but people forget it's a vast institution and consensus is built over time from the ground up. Heck look at the endless debate on calibre for a Rifle. A service that has debates within itself, arrives on decisions based on consensus & carefully consider the changes is better off on the long run.
