Indian Special Forces

Fab mod Ak is mostly used by RR and frontline troops. But yes Paras do they have them, but prefer Tavors and to some extent M4s.

Even State Police QRT & specialised teams. CAPFs have minor FAB mods on Arsenals like adjustable butt, etc. Paras love FAB mod AKs & they were among first to receive them!

ASMI 9mm Machine Pistol - developed by Army and DRDO... Ye log kab se aisi chiz banane lag gye.... Insas se mann bhar gya lagta hai... Sath mein ye vest bhi bana rhe hai...

The lower receiver looks like a combination of a Uzi and a Glock.

Most likely these are in field trials.

Which is nice, to say the least. MHA has such a streamlined procurement procedure. Meanwhile SF:

The red tape and delay in procuring specialised firepower from the United States

The elite Special Force units have resorted to stripping de-commissioned battle tanks or using weapons recovered from militants in the absence of the equipment to be procured from the US.

He has nothing to do with the changes. Credit must be given where due to MHA bureaucrats.

It IS a glock lower.

Those were unveiled in 2018 and 2020 respectively. Tonbo was still up and coming in 2016.

Can anyone get this footage?

Can anyone get this footage?

I don't think that's possible due to secrecy issues but there are lots of videos on YT which show US Marines in combat if u wish to see how live combat is...

CRPF QAT

You can’t make it up!

QAT didn’t even exist 4 years ago and is now on par with and in many crucial areas AHEAD of India’s most elite military units


so keep telling me how Indian ultra superhuman soldiers don’t need modern kit, clearly the senior officers of CRPF don’t agree

this is a clear indication that there’s something deeply deeply wrong inside the MoD and the way SFs are treated and outfitted. And specifically the PARA (SF) are the worst treated when it comes to this

What boggles my mind is that this is actually tolerated, a SF commander turns up at an op site and sees that his elite warriors are outfitted on par with or actually behind not just RR but now CRPF! What is that going to do to that team’s moral?

a failure at every freaking level

CRPF have understood the relevance of force multipliers and night fighting but the hardened SFs have been in the fight for decades and still running around night blind?

absolute kudos to CRPF and the IPS officers that have been entrusted with raising this unit in JK,for decades CAPFs had to endure the ridicule from service members and there’s constant bashing of the IPS cadre but in a matter of years they’ve been able to deliver what battle hardened macho army officers never could.


some people need to hang for this

It's due to political and bureaucratic leadership of MHA .

It's due to political and bureaucratic leadership of MHA .

There seems to be more devolved powers inside the MHA and in recent years a significant push to modernise but by targeting specific capabilities and not just creating long winded white papers

Dare I say it too that there’s a lot more dynamism and innovative thinking coming from the modern generation of IPS officers and particularly those that serve in CAPFs than you’ll find in the average MoD unit.

I just think that the MHA/CAPFs don’t burden themselves with the weight of tradition as much as the armed forces do. In the armed forces how things have been done for decades if not centuries is how they still do them today, CAPFs at a senior level mostly just want to get things done.
