CAPFS have foiled many fidayeen attacks in afghandyanhnn. Hum problem ko Bhagat hain Lekin ek cheez certain hain. We need to wake up

And I’m not a bloody regionalist saying this, every time a Sikh soldier fires at loc I salute. Even when those Muslims get kidnapped by Mujahids theyvare in my prayer. Ykw? Cuz Ima. Bloody proud Indian at the end of the day.

@COLDHEARTED AVIATOR saab. Please forgive me. I was wrong. Lekin ek. Cheez me sahi hain. One day when our generals wake up we will be unstoppable, ,

the panels look kinda shoddy tho, I remember seeing a more refined product in the promos
That doesn’t bother me too much. These things will be built with the chassis then separately adding armour panels on top. This should also allow them to replace damaged sections. Refinements also happen with time, I doubt TATA even has serial production for these things given how low order numbers are so they’re probably all hand made so far PSU style.

The bigger issue I have is that to make them “COIN tools” they’ve added firing ports and windows. I get the compulsion but that’s downgraded the armour protection levels quite substantially. Worryingly the IA did the same for the IPMV

i think u'r right that handguard fits the sig716 but that plastic contraption , is it a flashlight or a grip?
Arre that's an Angled Fore Grip (AFG); though I'm not sure about the exact model or manufacturer but it's basically something like this

Vertical Fore Grips (VFG) are good for things like better overall grip and recoil management but if you intend to use a C-clamp grip on a gun then AFGs are perfect

What is the comms division in a squad in infantry like now?
I remember not long ago we sill used to have a dedicated radio operator attached to the team leader and only 2 other members had comms.
We still do afaik. In many pics of ambush parties which r usually 6-8 men you can see one radio operator, be it 2001 to 2023.

Our COMMs have not changed at all.

Bloody what is this nonsense going on in western command?

Which joker is still making our jawans do these bloody ditch cum bund charges human wave assault style in 20 bloody 23? Sure this worked in 1965 but in 2023 there are far more weapons and tech in 2023.

Sale PLA type army who is making I need to know. I don’t think you understand how bad this is. They are literally sending our jawans to their death
