During the heydays of army SF in COIN operations, 9 para used to augment female officers from MI for HUMINT and Local Liason. Whatever decision the army took right now has been implemented in the west since long long ago (read relentless strike, very nice book)
Although i share quite similiar views as you on women in combatant roles.
So 9 para has been ruining its capabilities since the heydays of army in COIN. Nice to know

india is also investing in woke female speshial forzes even though a 12 year old boy has the strength of an average female
the problem isn't with allowing women to join, even UK, US & Isreal have that policy on paper. The problem is that they dilute the standards of an amazing organization. God help me if a team of women NSG commandos come to rescue me. I might as well be bleeding to death

Ok that is understandable. Even Delta Force had the "funny platoon" which had women for HUMINT ops. Quoting from Pete Blaber's book who served as the squadron leader for A squadron in Bosnia and founder of the AFO type ops.
"It’s universally axiomatic that if two men are seen loitering together, or driving through a close-knit community, they stand out, and most people automatically presume they are up to no good. But send a man and a woman out in the same profile and people barely give them a second glance."
Same with 14 Int or SRR, the only SF in UK that has women. Read "First into Action", "She who Dared" and "The Operators" and you will find they did similar roles

No women can compete with a man, barring the top 1%. That’s the sad truth. You think a team of woman operators can go hunt down extremely well trained mujahids in waist deep snow? You think they have the mental capacity to launch brute force attack? No they don’t. Letting women’s in combat is a horrible idea all these myths of them killing a gorrilion isis soldiers is just propaganda.

I do boxing and have sparred numerous peoples, and when I was 15-17 was quite thin and short and sitll a woman’s punch felt like a feather. I’ve sparred with women physically larger than me even

Yeah. And what tf is wrong with Para that they thought it would be good PR to show off standardized PVS 7s. Even the Taliban have standardized PVS 7s.:doh::doh:
Mehh they can improve in pcs and comtacs but I really have 0 hopes on them upgrading there night fighting capability they would rather fight with arjun on there gun then give contract to tonbo
