IAF's Jaguar with DRDO's SAAW Glide Bomb

It's heart wrenching to see the current situation in India. I hope all states immediately impose a strict lockdown and also stop giving out vaccines to other countries until atleast most Indians get a first dose

Iran should now brace for Israeli counterattacks

I don't think these are Para SF...since 6 Para is regular Paratroopers if I'm not wrong. If you see the actual footage of this screengrab, you can see a ton of different assault rifles and calibers varying from Sig-716, Tavors, AKs, UZIs to sniper rifles. It's more like you can't borrow a mag if...

So which exactly is your most elite unit among all Turkish SOF? Like SEAL Team-6 (DEVGRU) is considered to be the best among US Tier-1 SOF units publicly known or the Alpha unit of Russian Spetznaz

I really like Turkish SOF gear, particularly the naval unit...looks like some units are already on-par with their western counterparts Is there any thread outlining the different Turkish SOF units and the gear/equipment they use?

Though speculative, I believe this was supposed to be for AFSOD and not Para SF given the procurement numbers seem to be in line with AFSOD's max intended strength of 1000-1500 operatives Some reports did suggest this is an IA tender but Para SF already uses Tavors, M4s and AKs for which I...

It really depends on which SOF you're talking about. For instance, NSG has the best equipment and gear compared to others given they fall under MHA instead of MoD which makes the release of funds easier. The procurement process, induction of weapons/gear of IN's Marcos and IAF's Garuds is much...
