under no circumstance could you discard SG as an SF unit anyway. They come under the external Intel agency and have an entirly focused and seperate mandate. In terms of equipment look upto to CIA's SAD. Those dudes keep rolling along with vanilla AKs and all but are the top tier of the US Gov because of all the operational denability and huge assets and support they have. Ofcourse the US millitary SOF is highly bugeted and our guys are far from it.

Indian forces don’t go through hell.

They go to little conflict zones and get hilariously outclassed by college dropouts.
Rajouri is a little combat zone? Huh
8-10 trained terrorists equipped with snipers, IED's and huge cache of rifles and grenades, operating in dense jungles of Pir Panjal ain't a 'LiTtLe CoMbAT Zone'
Questioning our state of equipment and modernization pace is fine, but shitting on your own forces, your own men is not!!

It doesn't take a war to make a solders life hell ..
A negligent discharge , an incorrectly placed shot ,a wrong call that was taken that caused casualties ,a road accident , an incorrectly called mortar correction ........ it takes just a moment to send a person to hell with guilt and PTS .

these are the stories i have heard .

8-10 terrorists?😂😂🤣. That’s NOTHING lmao. That’s what was the average kill count per day was like in the 1990s!

You’re again proving my point. 8-10 rag tag jihadis give your elite forces all they can handle not just once, but twice. Imagine if it’s 20-30-40 or even 50 militants. Imagine the outcome then?

Kumaoni Bhai at this point it has become nearly impossible to discern if you are being serious or just baiting

Point is that the Indian military is in a very concerning state. Losing Colonels and Majors in areas which aren’t even a low level insurgency is beyond incomprehensible for a military which supposedly is one of the most battle hardened since ww2. There is something beyond rotten plaguing the upper brass, and god forbid a showdown with china. I don’t even want to talk about equipments, i’m talking about basics like SOPs.

How many ambushes have happened this year? Haven’t militants managed to give 9 para the slip not once but twice? Why are special forces being used to attack militant hideouts, when this has historically and should be the job of regulars?

Guerilla Warfare is not about numbers! Terrorists is 90's did a major mistake of operating in large groups and maintaining minimal contact with local terrorists whom they considered inferior! They often contacted their handlers in POK to provide them with money, these communications were intercepted by the army!

So whenever they were caught in a cordon and the whole group was trapped, it often resulted into complete slaughter of the whole group by the army!

But the Lashkar pigs in Rajouri-Poonch belt operate in small numbers and use local terrorists who are well versed with the geography of the jungles to assist them!

They maintain very very little contact with their Pakistani handlers and use natural cave hideouts, which are very difficult to track!

This makes them difficult to kill compared to the one's in 90's!

They are not some 'college DrOpOuTs' but trained pigs

Firstly, they stopped operating in groups larger than 10 after 1993. Secondly, the first backbone of the local insurgency was defeated by 1996, with JKLF collapsing after Hazratbal Siege in 1996. The army of the 90s managed to handidly slaughter JKLF but is getting its ass handed to it on a plate by PAFF in 2023. Can you name me one ambush in which Paras got wiped out while giving ZERO loss to the enemy in the past?

Thirdly, the militants used to carry hard weapons like RPGs, 50-100 KG IEDs, modified AKs, solar activated missiles, and were even caught TWICE with anti aircraft guns and multiple times with ATGMs.

Lastly, they were far more experienced, having trained alongside and even fought in the Soviet Afghan war. Half of these clowns facing the Indian military are wannabees with AKs. Can you imagine if the Indian Army went up against ISIS?

Anyway, the point is that 5-6 militants giving SF a slip not once but mutliple times is absolutely mind boggling and incomprehensible. And we are talking off the 4th most powerful (paperwise) military. Care to point out how many US majors died in Afghanistan, which is thousands time worse than Kashmir? I shudder to think what a decently trained Jihadi could do to a section of Indian troops.
