Indian Army to begin huge exercise along Pakistan border
At a time when Pakistanis are recovering from the shock of ISAF attack on two military posts thousands of Indian soldiers armed with hundreds of tanks, armoured carriers and fighter jets are getting ready for manoeuvres in Rajasthan sector along Pakistani border.
More than 50,000 Indian troops along with T-90, T-72, Arjun Tanks and BMPs are expected to take part in this gigantic military exercise code named SUDARSHAN SHAKTI design to add pressure on Pakistan border.
It is important to note that this extremely large India military war-game is taking place along Pakistan borders at a moment when Pakistan has accorded Most Friendly Nation Status (MFNS) to India in a attempt to normalis ties.
An Indian defence report says that This exercise will be a trendsetter for the Integrated Theatre Concept.
Meanwhile, there are reports that a project for Modernisation of Air Field Infrastructure (MAFI) is under way to improve the navigational aids at all Indian Air Force airfields.
MAFI is planned in two phases under which 30 airfields are planned for modernization in Phase-I and the balance airfields of Indian Air Force will be modernized in Phase-II. Phase-II will also include airfields of the Army, Navy, Coast Guard as well as any other agency.
The report added that Indian Air Force is also procuring surveillance Radar Elements (SRE), Precision Approach Radars (PAR), UHF Ground-to-Air Radio sets and Commutated Automatic Direction Finder (CADF) systems to upgrade the equipment at its airfields.
