Do you see any green in siachen? This is taken in siachen only

If you don't wanna be argumentative, I think the message has been well communicated.

It was wrong on IAs part to use DJI drones. But your bullsit argument has no substance to it. I think green & white camouflages well.

Forget camo and colours bro what can u expect where rr wears 5 different camos during ops
Who uses skull crusher in today's world
Who uses bpj that too without plates forget how horrible it gets even with plates
Low hanging pouches
Forget Chinese drones nothing much expected from IA
Look at those suppressors literally they will touch the enemy before u fire
And note they aren't infantry but para sf

Some armies do (noted they obviously arenโ€™t very good and have less successful ops than single rr battalions)
FYI- these ainโ€™t american

But replace the skullcrusher with a high cut helmet with proper nvg mounts
Most US army use PCs and body armor. I read that BPJs are better for light ops, while PCs for heavy ops (which is why BPJs would make sense for
raids while PCs for urban guerullas). My knowledge on this is new founded

Also what is the night vision on here? Is it a monocular night vision or an Arjun thermal? Canโ€™t tell.


For rr it can be justified as COIN ops are dependent on terrain, but here itโ€™s our borders and the terrain is same in this area

He isnโ€™t wrong.
The terrain here favors PCs over BPJs as most combat here is fire assaults and repulsing Pakistani ingressions.
The suppressors are utterly ridiculous.
Only third rate nato countries use Skullcrushers, not the first rate one.
Low hanging pouches, again, not ideal.
try to refute or argue instead of coming up with these unserious reponses.

Long time back had read a Japanese Editorial Criticizing India for being the poorest nation in G20.

The entire editorial gave me the vibe that India was poor souly by its own choice. Some how Indians just don't wanna get rich.

Being poor is not the collective choice of any nation. It comes with its own deficiencys that trickle down to individuals.

I think the same goes for the Indian Army, equipment, training or even adminstration wise. We had the same discussion 2 weeks backs. So I won't be revisiting the same topic.

(I was generally curious at first coz I didn't know about the DJI drone)

Point being that with bpj the plates hang below and not protect necessary part from bullets
Regarding skull crusher it has no real life benefits nor useful in ops
Few militaries may have it but I doubt they would ever use it or adopt it
Yeah no issues in rr case but that shows the intent of forces and seriousness wrt camo
It should be mandatory if u r using camo then be serious about it
And I think it's mono tube not TI

Finding these BPJs is like spotting an exotic bird. A bit more coherence in procurement would go a long way.

Maybe the shelf life of those garbage BPJs is still not over that they keep on using them. Anyways slowly but steadily we are transitioning.
