Indian Special Forces

I have to admit that the Pakistanis are way ahead of us in making videos and posting it on Youtube.The tracks are simply awesome and the content is so vast.They have videos covering all aspects of their training whereas we dont even have a proper video showing a fully armed Marcos diver comming out of the sea(which is supposed to be among the primary mission of a Marcos).


bhai kharab mal ki advertisement jyda karni padti he :rofl:
 
Guys, I've put a hold on my IAF vid as I'm still trying to find appropriate music to go with it. Any (more) suggestions are welcomed.


+wrt the COIN CRPF/RR music do you think it should be upbeat/go for it type music or downbeat/reflective music?

make an IAF vid with Judas Priest - all guns blazing/hell patrol/night crawler :devil:

Whilst I would LOVE more content on Indian SOFs I understand their reasoning for not going public as they say they prefer their actions to speak otherwise they are content to live in the shadows. This is how SOFs should behave-they aren't action stars! Indian SOFs are arguably some of the world's most secretive SOFs and that is all right with me.
 
One of my fav. Soundtrack from S.W.A.T. --- awesome track

Good Work buddy.
 
One of our leading movie actors mohanlal wanted to learn about commandos for his movie, a meeting was arranged with a special forces member. While waiting for him at the hotel a bearded man approached him talked to him about his movies The guy was talking a lot , had a very rough and unshaven look. After troubling the actor for a while the actor found some excuse and left. The actor was thinking he will copy the flashing uniform and looks of the commando. The actor waited for a while became impatient and called up the guy who arranged the meeting. He said 'what are u talking he just told me he came talked to you and left" :-)

They sould be secretive about their operations but not their training.Being open with the media could help them get potential future operators.After the 26/11 incident many youngsters called NSG and were shocked to know that they have to join the Army to be in the NSG.No one knew we had a unit like that.

The Americans know how to use their resources very well thaswhy you find so many stuff about them in the internet plus they get the job done.All the leading SF units in the world are famous too and it doesnt affect their operations be it SEALS,Spetsnaz or SAS.
 
One of my favourite clips of a NSG commando in which he says "nothing is impossible for us" and cleverly avoids other questions.




And in this one there is another commando in the last few seconds of the clip who says that you should keep smiling and the morale should never be down...

For those of you who might have missed it...The best news this year so far for Army SFs.



A month after Indian Army chief General VK Singh flagged gaps in defence preparedness in a letter to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, India has empowered its army to buy specialist equipment for its special forces on its own, even as it agreed to consider the army request to have attack helicopters in its aviation fleet as has been demanded by it for several years now.

These decisions were taken at a special review meeting - the third since February 28 - of army's acquisition process and the second since March 12 when the army chief wrote his letter to the prime minister, defence ministry officials said in Delhi.

The defence ministry asked the army to buy the specialist equipment by itself on the lines of what it does for troops posted at the world's highest battlefield in Siachen glacier.

At a nearly two-hour meeting at South Block, Defence Minister AK Antony told the army top brass led by its chief Gen. Singh at the meeting to review its procurements and development plans that it can buy these equipment, the shortage of which was highlighted by the army chief in the letter to the prime minister.
