What if he has done his research and then made his own version

Or maybe just copied an unpatented and unbranded version and produce it domestically, but I feel most of the components or whole piece is imported as those compass are made in China in bulk don’t know about others. But this Paracord is a very great thing.

What’s the 20mm sniper they use called?

20mm is too much it is beyond even AMR mark. Used in Attack Helicopters and American Fighter Aircrafts.

Ya'll Nibbiars the Mlecchas have the 20 mm AM/Sniper Rifle's with extremely good scope's.

 

[Frontrunner]

When this afsod thing is going to be on ground nd working? Nd any updates about the 1000 crore equipment which was to be purchased for para sf from us?

Imo
Defensive would not necessarily mean holding the last point of your territory but would mean that you hold onto a feature that has proper logistics support, can be re-inforced in quick time and have other support arms nearby.

Offensive in mountains will require a large number of men to overwhelm the enemy positions along with arty support and air or helicopter support. Offensive will also require special thinking at times cause one may have to take the toughest route to attack the enemy. Offensive will also have to ensure that there is accurate intelligence and backup plan ready if the offensive fails and men are to be moved out cause in mountains that will be challenging. Another thing that if we get hold of enemy post/territory we need to ensure they remain well supplied in terms of ammunition, logistics, medics and reinforcement. Also restricting enemy logistics lines by targeting them will be important in order to prevent counter attacks

PS: i still feel men on ground is still the most important factor when it comes to defending or attacking the enemy in mountains.

Please put your thoughts that's in relation with the rifle, it's capb and tactics involved.

What is the mandate of the Carl Gustav operator with the sniper team

 

[Aditya Ballal]

Ya'll Nibbiars do we have a 20 MM Anti material Rifle's?.

IMO all it needs is a good sight with a ballistic computer.

Ya'll Nibbiars should get more of those I almost forget the 20.82 MM version's.

 

[Automatic Kalashnikov]

Please put your thoughts that's in relation with the rifle, it's capb and tactics involved.

In mountains i feel larger caliber weapons play a bigger role in order to either attack the enemy on top from some distance or keeping the enemy away from your defensive position.

Eg, say if the 1962 RezangLa was to happen today (120 men), I feel majority should be equipped with 7.62x51mm assault rifles with decent optics. Assuming the enemy reaches your trenches, maybe dealing with them using this caliber might be difficult due to recoil so around 20-40 men should be equipped with AKs or 5.56 rifles. Apart from that DMRs and AMR should be present in order to target key resources of the enemy and snipers of .338 Lapua magnum or 50 Cal should be present according to the threat assessment (I feel during offensive a team should have DMR, snipers and AMR all to choose from). Regarding carl gustav and mortar I don't have enough knowledge.

 

[Aditya Ballal]

@AVINASH4061 sir, since Para sf has used both 50 cal and .338 lapua snipers for a while, how have they been so far and how well do work in our terrain?

 

[AVINASH4061]

@AVINASH4061 sir, since Para sf has used both 50 cal and .338 lapua snipers for a while, how have they been so far and how well do work in our terrain?

Absolute rockstars both of them in terms of performance. 50 cal is sometimes an overkill though.

 

[AVINASH4061]

sir, as per my knowledge, in lay man's language, inoffensive mountain battle one has to capture mountain peaks and in case of defensive we have to retain our high ground... the difference in capturing and saving is that the person who wants to save the mountain cliff has more advantage as he has high ground and as some veterans point out in case of Kargil, height se mara hua patthar bhi goli jaisa hota hai. If we look into kargil we had to use offensive mountain battle as paki infiltrators captured the peak beforehand and thus we had to regain it. the party taking out offensive doesn't only has to use more man power but also his weapons should be better and more powerful as he has to fire them against gravity and hit the enemy on cliff.. whereas the one on defensive mode can employ less no. of troops, and also lesser no. of artillery( it can be 0 too as artillery can't be installed on much of that type of terrain). Also in defensive posture natural hindrances like caves can help, a small no. of armed troops hiding properly there with their guns can do a lot of damage to them. That's why many Gorkha troops are trained for that task.

Again , i repeat, my para can have factual mistakes and thus I request anyone to please mark em out, And I am sorry to all for tomorrow's behavior.

Sir does Para sf make use of integrated or handheld ballistic computers whilst sniping? Like these, as full potential of these sniper rifles can be efficiently exploited with these.

Ya'll Nibbiars I don't think we have them in plenty already clarified by the Kunal Biswas sirji. And also said many times that we lacks good electronic sight's. And the Mlecchas have them in plenty's.

Ya'll Nibbiars we have 1,500 20.82 MM Vidwansak?.

So far it has only been spotted with NSG and Mumbai police Force One

I believe it is the Israelis that have a great affinity for the 50cal long guns. Maybe something we picked up from them ?

I believe TONBO imaging has clip on and standalone thermal sights with integrated ballistic computers, but idk how effective they’d be in the day time.

MarkO - Tonbo Imaging

MarkO is a Medium Wavelength Infrared, Cooled, Clip-On Thermal Weapon Sight, it allows for the engagement of human targets at more than 2,500 meters at night in zero light and in harsh weather conditions.

This is an American veterans thoughts on why we chose the 7.62x51 SIG 716. He believes the 7.62 NATO round has better performance in the mountains and LOC.
I’m considering the sig 716 battle rifle as an assault rifle in this case.
He says it’s the same reason why US SF forces use the SCAR H in increased numbers in Afganistan.
