Atleast those are Agra SWAT. How does Police Harleys fit in a SOF thread?

Nope...we do not have many interactions with the UK.
IA SF have been to Israel for training and with the US we have joint exercises.
@DIRECT ACTION
We have very good relations with the US.They want a share of our defence spending so they wanna train with us and hence show off their weapons.With the UK the thing is different.Interaction between UK and Indian Army is not as much as between US and India.
I like the exchange between Israel and India.I have a lot of respect for Jews and their struggle and how the Israelis are fighting despite being surrounded and still not giving up.Para Commandos regularly visit Israel for training.I was told by my friend in the Army that 9th Para was the first one to be sent to Israel for training.
Similarly,Marcos have a great friendship with SEALs.My friend's dad was a Commodore in the Navy and he once told me a story of a Marcos saving a injured Seal's life and sailors from both Navy sharing a great friendship.
NSG similarly has a relationship with GSG9.They train with them regularly which doesnt get reported.
P.S-My favourite SF unit is German KSK..i hope we train with them someday.
do we have any training programs with Russian SF?? russian SF" Alpha" is one of the best SF in the world. i hope our Sf will do have some training programs with them. marcos have joint training program with US army delta. don't know if they have any such training program with ST6.
what i don't understand is despite have very closer relationship with Nato countries why we don't have any SF training programs with them? russia being much closer to india and even share critical technology with india don't have any SF training programs with us. why is that?
I have the same question.Inspite of our relationship being so close and going to the extent of developing a 5th gen fighter we still havent had a joint SF exercise or maybe it didnt get reported.
In 2007 Para Commandos visited Russia and the Russian Army airborne division participated but Spetsnaz was not involved.Similarly recently also Russia did not send Spetsnaz to India.
Such things also depends on the efforts made by the govt.Like we did not have many AF to AF exercise with the Russians until the time Russians reaslised how closer the US and India have come through these exercises.
We have US,UK,Afghanistan,SL,BD,Mongolia,Poland,SA. Etc visit the CIJWS.
But i wont complain as the exercises with the western armies specially Israel for training and US for exposure has changed the tactis and weaponry of the Indian SFs.
A decade ago i used to call Indian SF the most under equippped but now i think Para Commandos SF are one of the better equipped SF in Asia and certainly the best equipped in South Asia.
The choice for weapons and the Techint which these guys get is superior to others.Humanint is also superior because every second month you get to read about a local commander getting killed in Kashmir.
They have changed their tactis and now operate in HIT teams of 6 specialist of various specialities from explosives to weapons expert.This is what i feel is influenced by how western SFs operate.Earlier we had platoon sized teams.
And you can bet that more is to follow with the 4 times hike in NSG budget and Army and Naval SF having a seperate budget and a free hand on buying.
