Honestly do we need another SF battalion? IMO shouldn’t we be raising additional “Airborne” battalions. Already we struggle to equip the existing SF battalions properly and also manage commonality and uniformity among SF battalions.
Hope that he mistakenly put the SF infront, BTW we dont even have a 13 Airborne battalion what are they converting into SF? Generally the preferred way is to convert the Airborne into SF no?Honestly do we need another SF battalion? IMO shouldn’t be raising additional “Airborne” battalions.

Wtf we are raising another para sf regimentFuck are we raising a new SF battalion
AFAIK nopeDo we have an existing 13 Para battalion?
Para SF with a naked AK..wow
Honestly at this point you can only believe these people are mentally stunted, their current SF units are still pathetically equipped from the last major SF expansion ( converting airborne to SF) andFuck are we raising a new SF battalion
Nothing surprises me anymore, budgets remaining the same but numbers are increasingPara SF with a naked AK..wow
It’s beyond a joke. They would rather expand numbers (and thus dilute abilities) than enhance capabilities of existing units. It took >15 years for all SF battalions to get Tavors after they expanded last timeHonestly do we need another SF battalion? IMO shouldn’t we be raising additional “Airborne” battalions.

Like you said it’s pure copiumMay be, just may be this 13th Para may be our version of a Tier 1 unit with good funding. May be the M4 wielding unit we saw in two encounters are now officially the 13th and will be equipped/trained and deployed as a true Tier 1 unit. I know that's a lot of copium.
Weapon rest26 sec video mark, the operative's weapon holding style is quite rare to get in view with, at least with Indian infantry/ SF prospective! May be senior members like you can light some insight view regarding it.
Nope, airborne's been diluting and canibalizing the SF battalions for a while now. We don't need numbers for special operations, most of which happen at the company level at best. This is a consequence of negligent and reckless expansion, that too from a frontier that is rapidly loosing it's relevance. Airborne is useful in the mountains, but mostly for offset lateral infiltrations using helos. The days of mass drops to start off a conflict are mostly dead, maybe once air-supremacy has been obtained or you have enough info to confirm a lack of A²/AD in the vicinity, you could mass drop some paras near the immediate objective for a surruptitious assault.Honestly do we need another SF battalion?

Kill me in my sleep.
Still, there's a HUGE difference in having the option and not using it and not having the capability when it may be needed.Nope, airborne's been diluting and canibalizing the SF battalions for a while now.
