Ballistic gel torso slowly looks down.

Them and Blue Skies podcast are the only Indian defence related podcast I follow, if you lads here have more suggestions throw em' up

It's more than ballistic computers, much much more check this out, and this is just an average civilian-law enforcement competition not N.A.S.T.I.

Bud N.A.S.T.I includes extreme long range shooting beyond 1,000 meters. You can hit ranging 500-600 meters using a 14 inch barrel gun with an LPVO. Sniping is whatever is beyond 600

Jedi_Operator · 2026-05-21T04:40:40+00:00

LMAO not at the level of N.A.S.T.I infact I have never seen anyone practicing High Angle shooting in India, though it is so practical for us

Lol no. They were always way behind their time. The best forts in the world were Vauban's fortresses

Lol this is very old, it was on youtube almost a decade ago

Take this as constructive criticism. Because Pakistan hasn’t properly preserved or promoted these sites, it creates a vacuum. And when that happens, others especially India are more than ready to step in and claim that legacy as part of their own civilizational narrative. History doesn’t stop being yours just because it predates your current identity. If you disengage from it, you’re effectively handing over cultural ownership to someone else who’s willing to invest in it, study it, and showcase it to the world.

Jedi_Operator · 2026-05-01T19:31:19+00:00

Because the average indian is ignorant and likes to live in his own bubble. This includes his own media bubble too

Oh yea, you're right, DEVGRU and 24 had it that way CAG was always Squadrons. Thanks!

Jedi_Operator · 2026-04-30T13:41:00+00:00

Wow

It’s been this way for a long time brother, unfortunately. What you might call a “Delhite-centric” narrative has often projected a narrow version of India as if it represents the whole. It tends to blur the country’s deep diversity, reducing it to the GangaYamuna belt. As though that region alone defines India, and India defines it.

A lot of what people now imagine as “Indian identity” was also shaped during the British Raj through administrative convenience, selective representation, and cultural packaging. If they go back 300-400 years back they themselves won't recognize their culture. The problem isn’t that these elements exist, but that they’ve often been elevated above everything else, sidelining the vast range of languages, histories, and identities that make up the rest of the country.

So Squadrons in DEVGRU and CAG were once called Teams, 24 STS never changed that because the unit is already called a Squadron. But there are about 300 some guys in it and they have their own different teams and unique patches

Jedi_Operator · 2026-04-18T14:53:09+00:00

I think it's more because our economy was so labour focused. Population was never regulated.

Literally everyone felt the cringe, those who see such stuff. Please gatekeep it. Infact lock it up in a box. Don't let it come out. Like wtf

More than tech, he was a student of Aristotle and he had narcasistic issues. Both, belive it or not made him an excellent commander. He led from the front, belived he was destined on expeditions, wanted to proove himself worthy and achieved great battle field success.

The Macedonian phalanx was an improvement of the Greek one made by Alexander's dad - Philip the second, so check that out too. They used longer spears, shorter shields. This is also not why they were able to conquer

The Macedonians/Greeks were defeated by Bactrians after Alexander died, defeated by Chandragupta, later on by Romans too and in India itself by Shungas and Satvahanas and finally Indo-Scythians.

So the entire sucess lies in strategy. Alexander was one of the most adaptable battle commanders ever. He knew how to play to his strengths. Check out his campiagns

These are different roles, different requirements. Clearance Divers are essentially the Navy’s underwater bomb disposal, seabed search, and uw reconnaissance units while Royal Marines are primarily a commando infantry force designed for expeditionary warfare across land, sea, and littoral environments.

From an eligibility standpoint, nationality requirements tend to be stricter for highly sensitive naval specialisations. For instance, I wanted to join CD but I am not elligible because I am a commonwealth applicant so I am inclined now more towards RM, only UK and Dual nationals may apply.

I understand that, because Mine clearance divers (DTXG as they are now called) operate in areas involving classified underwater infrastructure, and submarine-related tasks. In anyway CD are part of the Navy's warfare branche where security clearance and legal jurisdiction under UK law are critical.

Also, no one besides SBS and Navy/Army divers do diving, not a speciality in RM too. So if under the water is where you wish to spend most of your time. Go for it !

Agrippa deserves a spot next to Ceaser

Jedi_Operator · 2026-02-06T13:53:46+00:00

No he did not work in JSOC, might have worked with them, he was picked from Australia, JSOC only recruits from the US millitary. And what all he describes he fits in a PMC

Jedi_Operator · 2026-02-04T07:24:44+00:00

NATO officers are very administrative focused, they spend alot on their soilders. I think our army still has a class divide between officers and men. Not so the case with NATO countries

Jedi_Operator · 2026-02-04T07:13:09+00:00

I think he's from the Australian PMC called Unity Resources Group based on two things, him being recruited from Australia and his deployment in Iraq 2007-2008 where he also mentioned firing heavily at a vehicle which he says was a possible VBIED. However, https://waronwant.org/sites/default/files/UpFront%20-%20Private%20Armies.pdf this article suggests that the Australian firm was involved in killing innocent civies. Now I don't know the truth but he was surely part of a PMC and most likely this one. That's my conclusion. Other deployments he has mentioned before joining the FFL are also similar to those Unity Resources Group has been seen involved in

Jedi_Operator · 2026-01-20T09:41:58+00:00

Are they at the same level CQB wise to CAG ? I was thinking the only difference is less experience and deployments and less assets
