Forget history. They are clueless about all these things.

GB=/=SAS and none of the SF battalions were formed on the SAS’s model

Trying to comfort themselves by using feel good and familiar terms
Totally. The whole idea of SF came in the 65 war, that was when the first SF battalion came about (9 Para) and when they were ACTUALLY SF doing SF things, not doing police Wala work like we see them doing now

TTP’s ‘special forces’ unit


PARA SF have all the bad elements seen here (elbow/knee pads) minus the COMTACs.

You can’t make it up

SOMALI SF are far higher speed than Paras (MARCOs are just about on par)


Oof, can’t get much worse than this

Mr Thumb reviewed the rifle marcos bought recently, maybe its good they didnt suppress them.
The fact that SF picked this overgassed rifle as their standard issue which can't take a suppressor without needing an overhaul after a thousand rounds, says a lot about Army's attitude to special forces.

Marcos mate , but still seems like the navy has the same attitude as the army in regards to infantry

There are good chances those TTP SF are trained by us indirectly by training their trainers.

We have a pretty fucked up tracked record for such things.

Its not even just some Internet guy making claims, they actually asked IWI engineers and they confirmed it..which is mind blowing.

Aren't they supposed to have a weather sealed action?

(They usually do beach landing with AKs)
bu but saltwater bad for guns, what if we wear it out in the exercise. AKs are fine, have plenty in storage. The fact here is the amount of money spent on the individual commando even is criminally low for a modern professional military of a big nation. Hence crap like plastic wrapping your precious service weapon during a simulation exercise, keeping your sights and scopes inside your pocket, etc.

Which rifle they use if they have to operate on this type of sandy terrain
Cling filmed rifles?

watch them get (rightly) roasted to hell for this on international forums.

once again my suspicions that Indian SOF don’t really have a clue what they are doing seems justified. These guys are meant for tweets not for combat

laughing stock of the tactical world and it’s well deserved
