Yeah that's why quit listening to his speeches. Bloody hypocriteHard for me to listen to khalifa of yousaf kazab.
Every formation has decontamination detachment , And the infantry school nbc course includes radioactive zone fighting, and entire formations practice it once a couple of years,My friend training is one thing and i am sure they are familiar with the concept on a smaller scale but fighting in Radiation fallout zone is totally altogether a different thing.
Have any one of us on this forum come across a Decontamination vehicle of PA? Or such a setup at field level?
I know that the tanks are NBC protected, and some of the IFV & the new MRAPs but what about the lorried infantry, the individual soldier??? I have yet to see MOP gear/Atropine Kit as part of a soldiers individual kit.
Fighting in an NBC contaminated environment is not part of the regular training regime.
He explained that very well in the video.i.e his meeting with Musharraf in 2004.Does he really think that the military planners never thought of all this?
I think you did not listen to him carefully.By fighting a different war means this time it will be fought in cities rather than on border areas.Previously it was fought just on or close to border areas and our Western border was safe but this time our Western border is not safe and we already have 2 lakh troops deployed there. Which means we are fighting a two front war this time and it's quite possible that they will reach different cities of pakistan.So as he said there will be no difference between a soldier and civilian and everyone has to fight.To deal with such situation our population and army need a guerilla warfare training to make every street and populated area hell for Indian army.Our army is well trained and battle hardened in this Urban guerilla warfare but unfortunately our civilian population is not.and pray that conventional parity remains in place. Because use of nuclear option is the end game and not beginning of a different type of war!!!
Are we ready to destroy our country for nothing because no one is going to get anything out this war other than USA and Israel and it will end on the destruction of India and Pakistan. No one I repeat no one neither India nor Pakistan
Will achieve or get anything out of it but death and destruction. are we a suicide cult
We have not and will not should not if they want to do something about it they shouldeither that or learn to live with Indian supremacy because until you accept India as your father like BD, Nepal, Bhutan and Sri Lanka has done these Hindus wont let you live in peace. I am for destroying India than become another BD.

He makes sense about military matters.
What he is referring to is going to be mid or late into the war. We are planning to pack a punch before that happens and possibly go tactical nuclear before shit hits the fan. If war becomes so decentralised it would mean we are in deep trouble already. Secondly A company commander or even a battalion commander doesn't need to take Strategic decisions, they will remain at mostly tactical level. They cannot influence change in strategy. Only use of Tactical nukes is a decision at strategic level for a field commander.
However I get his point and general direction is right.
He explained that very well in the video.i.e his meeting with Musharraf in 2004.

We had it in limited scale supplied by Americans in the 80s , but since the indo pak nuke tests at first strike formations got them , Now a majority has the kits ,
Nevertheless they are ready ,I beg to differ sir, our army is trained and well versed in fighting guerrilla warfare in mountainous terrain where they have air superiority. The scenario he is laying out is not going to happen. He is still thinking on conventional lines. GoP/not the Armed forces will allow a major city to be taken over by India through conventional strike!!!!
Fighting in an urban terrain/CQB without air-cover is not something that we have trained for.
In Syria, the GoS, took street by street control away from urban guerrilla units with the help of air cover.
Furthermore, Mr. ZH does not explain the events that lead up to a urban warfare scenario. Will GoP allow such a thing to happen with nukes in hand? I for one think that once a tactical nuclear exchange happens than sector commanders will have control over theater nuclear weapons (As Mr. ZH advises) and then it is anyone's guess what happens next.
I think very few on this forum realize and or have the understanding that when two nuclear powers go to war on their own soil what will happen!! Command and control will crumble once a tactical nuclear strike is initiated, and then all decisions will be left to individual commanders training, discipline, world view, and religious leanings & disposition. The last element is the wild card.
Sir I do hope so. Because I too went through class room NBC course and indoctrination and then whole shebang in field. It is cumbersome, it cuts down the war-fighting capacity of the individual soldier by forty percent (In US army where they are almost totally mechanized). The temp in the field in this part of the world cuts down that capacity by atleast 10% more in not higher.
I defer to your better judgement Sir!Nevertheless they are ready ,
Also we have various mountainous areas where nukes have very limited effect from where the war would carry on ,
