    Armasen tactical mostly produces low end stuff like patches, duffle bags, backpacks, belts, helmet covers etc apart from their plate carriers which is pretty decent. Para SF along with the recently merged Para battalions will number in excess of 10,000 and there's no way IA will order from one...

    I'm not aware of any books and don't see ex-MARCOS give interviews like the Paras. I got the below info from another forum MARCOs guys use the suck up factor simialr to SEALs, mud crawls, running with logs, boats, swimming and surf torture etc to let them suck, then teach them SOPs. The goal of...

    There were reports of several guns being considered or tested like Galil, SCAR, HK-416, M4 etc but none have been procured, let alone being standardized except for the Tavors. I've seen some M4s' with the Paras though Well 51 SAG is part of NSG and that's what GoI intends to go with during a...

    I wouldn't trust Para SF with any op involving water. During the Galwan conflict, the military brass decided to deploy Marcos over Para SF in Pangong lake

    If you're referring to a regular non-SF unit like the US Marine Corps, India doesn't have one The MARCOS were previously called Marine Commandos and they're probably the only Indian SF unit who can be deployed in multiple environments similar to the SEALS

    Tavors are hardly used in the Israeli forces. While most of Indian SOF units have the initial versions of Tavor which are mired with issues like accuracy over long distances, weight, jamming, bulkiness and the requirement to have an entirely new training regimen with bullpups, IWI has been able...

    Totally different ballgame in pdf. You can see 30 threads opened bashing their govt or mil for every single incident Also, pdf has a decent clout in pak and was once being actively used by their establishment to push their narrative

    DefHub is primarily focused on defense related issues while PDF has gone bonkers over political stuff with the recent turmoil in pak. If pak deep state figures out majority of anti-army pdf members flocked to defhub and are creating the same ruckus, they wouldn't mind banning DH in pak

    You simply cannot filter info fast enough irrespective of the number of mods and there will always be some trigger happy internet warrior who couldn't control emotions and will talk crap about their army

    Holy Mary mother of God...just saw this. This is what a real SF should look like and MARCOS are trend setters in the Indian SF community. All those joint exercises with SEALS definitely helped Now all they need is replacing those Tavors with an M4 or some AR-15 platform I really wish they...
