Dude i have confirmed that these guys are phantom. No assumptions. They are just best chosen commandos among NSG. Just like Ghataks in IA Battalion. I have written that only after confirmation.
By a frd who left NSG during probation period and a Force -1 member. Will post more of them with evidence.
@Local_Legend Yes they are.

Thats what i told u there no much difference but a little bit in tactics and equipment. They just look like SAG. In fact they are SAG but there is nothing like special Phantom badges to identify them. Wait for some time we will get to know everything about them.

The Ghatak comparison doesn't work bro, SAG operators are ALREADY the elite, what sense would there be to have an elite within the elite in a counter terror unit like the NSG? The point of Ghataks is to act as special operations capable troops for regular infantry btns so they add an unconventional element to conventional units, wheras the SAG are already highly specialised. I don't see the point of the "Phantom unit" other than to be sky marshals, foreign liasons and instructors (you would want the best of the best in these positions).

Commissioning of INS Karna (new HQ of MARCOS (EAST)):

NSG SAG was Scattered Hubs in Six Major Cities After 2008 Mumbai,chennai,Hyderabad,Kolkata ,New delhi ,Gujrat

IS there Extention Plan to more Cities

The NSG "hubs" all have regional areas of responsibility and they are ready to deploy to any city/town in their AOR whilst the main SAG counter terror task force is in Delhi who will be deployed to any operation the NSG is tasked with. If it is felt there is a need to reduce reaction times further in specific areas then more NSG hubs may be created but I think it is best to consolidate for the next 5 years and build up the infrastructure and mobility of the current hubs into world class centres before looking to further expand the network. Setting up these hubs is an increidbly time consuming and expensive exercise thus too much expansion will really hurt the NSG as a whole.

“Once an emergency arises during the flight, the safety officers have to respond and solve the problem immediately. Therefore, training on reaction speed and anti-terrorism capacity is essential.”

I'm not flying in that airline ever .If I ask chopstick they come near to us with a poll and do this ..

Chopsticks served

I saw this news on Reddit the other day


As for the NSG, they have been deploying sky marshals in Indian and regional skies for over a decade now.

Yes bro. After 1999 hijack right ?

Is there any plans to allot them helicopters? I mean NSG to reach from their Hubs to other places when the need arises ? Or IAF will carry them ?

indeed.

I'm sure that they will get their own air wing in the long term but for now they have to rely on the IAF for airlift.

Unless you are looking for black ops which the NSG isnt authorised to do.

Good point.

NSG are right next to the airport in Delhi and the C130 and C17s are stationed there.Cant comment more about this.

Exactly, the NSG are not a covert unit, they are a Counter Terror force and their operations will always be well publicised it doesn't make sense to have a "black ops" unit within them. As I've said, I think the point of the "Phantom unit" (the top 1% of the NSG) is to have the best of the best in critical positions; Sky Marshals, Instructors etc etc.

The C-130J-30s and C-17s are deployed at Hindon AFB bro and the NSG's counter terro task force is deployed at IGI's technical area. it would make sense to now shift the NSG's main counter terror task force to Hindon now, wouldn't it?

No,they are at IGI.NSG base and NSG accommadation is right next to IGI.

I know the NSG is currently deployed at IGI but does the IAF deploy C-17s to IGI just for the NSG? I don't know about that, it might be the case but Hindon isn't too far so it's possible they fly from Hindon to IGI when required as the IAF defeintly has 2-3 C-17s on stand by 365 days a year for any emergency response.
