That’s not the only issue, it’s that the fact that potentially serving SF personnel have public SM accounts that puts at risk of surveillance or espionage.

it' nothing have seen newly recruited instagram fauji going live on loc and lac while doing ops or patrolling. They reveal a lot of sensitive information like the position of camouflaged bunker their roots code names and God knows what, just like the recent Drone footage which was leaked by a South Delhi ka ladka

Did the Sunjwan encounter involve some HVTs? Cause JKP sog, crt, CRPF qat, RR, 2 PARA SF teams + what seems to be an infantry battalion were involved.

No HVTs, JKP, CISF and CRP were the first responders, they successfully shot down the two FTs, Army was called in for area sanitation, SF team eqpd with drones and surveillance eqpt. RR was necessary as the area is densly populated and is probably the highest place within jammu city and has several escape routes, so someone had to lay larger cordons to prevent/minimize the probability of a larger terrorist group escaping.

Interesting observation, once again highlights the problem with not having centralised selection/training of IA SF. Each battalion is operating as silos and best practices are not being shared across the regiment or fed into the training program for all, bizarre they are still yet to get around to this, it’s such a basic step. How can they hope to be effective with such variances across their battalions?

Very true, earlier someone pointed out the fact that some units of Para SF have sub par weapon skills and some have global sof tier standards and SOPs. Very much visible from the picture, the guys from 9 and 4 are using HCBHs, Decent plate carriers, Chemlights, Dump pouches, battle belts etc while units like 3, 12 and others are still using FLAC overvests over cloth made plate carrier solutions.
Only a unified comd or a seperate regt for them can help.

ISI honey traps are just the tip of the iceberg. Ever wonder why you hear about those incidents constantly but never about Chinese infiltration Ops? The reality would be too scary to digest, I’ve heard some disturbing things on this front.

I thought the IA specifically said their personnel cannot have public SM accounts? If this is the case they should enforce this stuff seriously, people should be losing their ranks for such nonsense. The enemy doesn’t even have to fire a shot to cripple you if you give them this ammo

You are still talking about Regs,. Bigger question is what is the Ethos of our SOF forces? Of the leadership? What makes our SF 'Special'. Cannot just be better fitness standards.

From what I know, the second pic that's an accepted stance and i think it is call Isosceles Stance as for the first pic I don't know what that is, perhaps the pirate stance.

Army ka 7.62 wala stockpile abhi bhi pada hai isliya 70000 ak kharid le , kahan 6.8 ke bat kr rha ho sirji aap, waisa bhi 6.8 naya mal hai , nato ke sf he use nhi kr rhi abhi , baki amerci ko chlana do abhi ka liya,10-30 saal sa pahala to mujhe lagta nhi ke we will move toward 6.8,we are still using shitton of 7.62.

This could have solved all the problems.

The first one is called CAR (Center Axis Relock). It's not meant to be used in place of isosceles (second picture).
CAR is more for usage in cars (duh) and incredibly tight corridors where you can't extend your arms out.
CAR's arguably outdated. Watch John Wick, he shows a lot of actual movement according to that principle. Keanu Reeves trained a lot under actual operators and range instructors and the entire movie is full of scenes of how an actual relock dude would move with and use his pistol.

Second one is isosceles. Simple, evergreen and effective for actual marksmanship.

Quick Question

Most of the time they co-ordinate operations while being in the AO. A few units' COs have a distinction of leading ops while being with the squads themselves (op apache for example)
