These pilots earmarked for SOF operations.? Do they even have a training regime for the same. Flying at night for conventional operations and SOF 2 different things.
Dhruvs the right platform for SOF operations? What about the Mils ?
Regarding the BMP IIs. The order for the upgrade was placed right after the Chinese confrontation and AFAIK they are a phased acquisition and contract yet to be signed. Please provide source of this upgrade
An abinitio SOF capability in 2021 for a major world power is a dereliction of duty. Back to you
You know nothing Jon Snow.
TSIK sight kits were put in place starting from 2016 for your information. TKN 3Bs around begining of 2019.
Dhruv is capable of SOF Ops within the realm. Cohesion with airforce is a bigger issue to be ironed out. But Dhruvs are capable.
All pilots are trained for missions that include infantry troops and special forces. They have a very lengthy syllabus to finish to be declared as fully operational. Saying "do they have" is an insult to all aviators including me.
Anything else?
