Since the Garuds are a relatively newer force, who have they used for training them, as even their equipment and weapons handling look a lot better? Anshu Antony on Twitter observed something else. I suggest members who aren’t on Twitter give this tweet a read.
I think @COLDHEARTED AVIATOR has addressed this before- IAF/IN are on the whole more technical branches and recruit accordingly whereas the IA is made up relatively backwards grunts hence IAF/IN are more dynamic and outward looking whilst IA is disproportionally wedded to outdated baggage.

Also IN officers have impressed me more than other branches.

In my research on why it is so i came to know that firstly they live on the ship together unlike other branches there is not a big hierarchy.

Secondly,the aviators and Marcos all have other roles also.So they are all very grounded people who are very keen to perform their duty diligently and are not into false bravado.

Two things i love in them..very precise and polite.

I knew it was going to be this pic, remains the sole time we have ever seen NSG with these modern COMTACs


As a whole it seems like NSG is currently standardised around in-ear headphones with throat/lapel mics

Why order guns like scar or mk18 from other countries when drdo with sss defence can analyse some of the guns and can make better indigenous alternatives for our army and special forces
First put indigenous guns on normal infantry . we aren't even capable of that special ops need best weapons
