Snipers in Ghillie suits taking part in op- very interesting!!

A few years ago i used to wonder why the IA doesnt use Snipers to that effect when it should in Op Rakshak and LOC areas but in 2 years the situation has completely changed.

We have Snipers taking part in almost all operations(in one operation even from a helicopter).Then we have SF men deployed with Dhruv squadrons ready 24/7 for intel which they get from Military intelligence agencies or even UAVs.Hi-tech survelliance equipments on the LOC..things have greatly changed specially from the old days when we had to even deploy BMPs in some area and there used to be training camps in Anantnag close to Srinagar.

No wonder the sepetarists like PDP want the Army to leave after doing the hard work and sacrfificng so many lives in the process.

A job well done indeed! :tup:

It was said even 5 years ago the Indian military didn't pay enough attention to nor appreicate the value of snipers. It seems things are chaning as now even regular infantry have snipers and there is a new found focus on this area with new kit and training going to snipers in all wings.

I have great respect for snipers and i had the pleasure of meeting a sniper once.I asked him many questions specially about the training and how tough it is...He like many others didnt share a lot of details but told me that we have a sniper school which was surprising for me coz not many people know about it...cant tell you the exact location though but its located in central India and the training is very tough..he said that a lot of people are unsuccesful which is similar to 80%.

The thing is these guys are really smart and know how to avoid questions.I have done my schooling from a military school and had access to all the Army/AF/Navy magazines in our school library..so once in the library while checking out the "sainik samachar" magazine i saw a picture of a US instructor training Indian snipers somewhere in central India and i knew that there are some excercises specially for snipers which doesnt get reported in the media...Now when i asked him about this he is like "No i havent ever seen a foreigner in my life" even when i knew he was comming from Sniper school of the IA which was having some foreigners(cant tell their nationality).

Most of the things are kept secret man..like we were having a chat that day about the IAF.

Anyways,if its in the interest of our nation then we shouldnt complain.
