That's what Porks call Indians, he is using their words against them like Anant said.Paki troll or not, I think we should refrain from using racial slurs regarding skin color, as it easily applies to dark skinned people of our own country. As a South Indian with darker complexion, I don't know what to make of it when DFI members use words such as "black Negro dog" to describe someone with darker skin.
Actually back in 2002-03 both sides have come to an unofficial agreement that Point 5353 will remain with Pakistan & Point 5310 with India.Now since we have bunker piercing munitions, can we destroy their bunker and get this peak 5353 back? The reason is Pakistan has clear sight to our national highway. They may not be attacking from that past, but may be getting real time intelligence of our army movement.
Talking of the agreement, Pakistan has never honored any agreement including Sheila or even ceasefire agreement. They don't have any honor. We can't keep gentleman promises with habitual lier. I think now is the time to take the peak back.Actually back in 2002-03 both sides have come to an unofficial agreement that Point 5353 will remain with Pakistan & Point 5310 with India.
Yes.As I understand point 5353 sits bang on LoC, is it correct?
I can't understand. can you please explain.in form of mortars, their light arty guns are pathetic at best ..

What are these Porks praying for?? I think I know...... "We're getting screwed by the Kafir Army of Hind....Oh Allah, pllleeeaassse have mercy on us!"
Their guns are looking short and highly portable..but our's are long and bulky.
They use Italian OTO Melara 105 mm Mod 56, They have range of 10 kms and their is another arty of US origin whose range is 11kms, A Chinese gun of puny 85mm has 15kms of range, Accuracy is horrible ..
These are usually used in direct fire against on coming assault or bringing down avalanches at glacier, Earlier they use these against BSF who were using 81mm mortar ..
First picture is from Basal-Chu, opposite of Kargil sector, The other is from siachen glacier
=============
BSF recently used Indian guns to great effect, suppressing every other mortar and light arty of enemy in that valley ..

105mm had a range of 25km right?
@Kunal Biswas
Those pics look to be from around Kargil War. We have been hearing so much about Napakis investing much in upgrading tube artillery and being gifted quite a bit by US under "war on terror" such as M109 SPH.
Do they still operate these short range guns only?
Now I got the point why Musharaff et.al were so confident about India not deploying Bofors in Kargil Theater. With these in arsenals they were not even able to think of anything like use of Bofors in Kargil. For them deploying this itself might have been an arduous task.
Its really surprising to notice something really vintage ( 1941 ) used during 1999 and perhaps still being deployed at LOC, Never knew Pakistani arty was so weak that they had to deploy this, Not sure where they got ammunition from, That shell which is going into that breach is dangerous to its crew only ..
The arty is British 140mm medium gun, With a range of just 16kms with a crew of 10 ..
==========
==========
These British 5.5 inch guns were used to be backbone of Indian Army and seen 65 and 71 war, After arrival of 105mm IFG these were phased out and kept for static display or Museum pieces ..
Artillery is not only about superior guns and technology but its an arm which still make use of improvisation, men's personal initiative and innovation to use this fine piece of warfare.

As we had seen in Kargil and that's why Brig Lakhvinder "lucky" Singh, 8 Mountain Division warrants a particular mention how he used old artillery tactic of concentrated fire taking inspiration from Babur and Ranjit Singh Artillery tactics.
However agree on the tech part too as Pakis were able to hit several of our Ammo & fuel dumps due to Arty locating Radar.
