You ask whether the Indian army is strong, from the perspective of the world, it is indeed strong, so strong that most countries in the world can do nothing about them! According to the latest data, India ranks fourth in the world in the ranking of global military power!
If you are Pakistan, Bhutan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Maldivian, then don't be convinced, the Indian army is a tiger and wolf army to you, it is a desperate existence for you, and the Indians say that their country is the hegemon of South Asia, you have no reason to refute, and you can even say that if India says I want to garrison troops, these countries may not have the right to hesitate, India is too strong, so strong that it is outrageous!
The Indian Army is the largest army unit in the world, with more than 1.2 million active personnel, which is enough to strike fear into the hearts of most countries in the world!
But the question is that we are in China, which is another matter, is India strong or not? The Indian army is the weakest of all the opponents we have fought since 1949, not one!
There is such a formula in the international community, and only at the level of 50,000 yuan per capita military expenditure can the army's combat effectiveness be maintained without increasing or decreasing, which is called the "$50,000 benchmark." Below this standard, the army's combat capability will show a downward trend, and above this standard, the army's combat effectiveness will develop and grow.
India's defense spending in 2018 was about $66.5 billion, a quarter of China's. The number of Indian troops is about 1.32 million, and the per capita budget of the Indian army is only 503.78 million US dollars, which is just the same data, which is basically at a level that is difficult to grow!
The budget here includes military salaries and benefits, weapons and equipment procurement and replenishment, maintenance of existing equipment, battlefield construction, training expenses, and other special expenses.
At this time, let's take a look at the Indian army, this semi-modern army born out of the colonial army, has a strong comprador nature, through the purchase of weapons and equipment has basically achieved modernization, the proportion of domestic equipment is very low, less than 40 percent, of which high-tech content of modern equipment basically all rely on outsourcing, the result is that the system integration is not enough, weapons and equipment models are scattered, the source is complex, resulting in a chaotic equipment system, great logistical pressure, almost no sustained combat capability. If you think about it, a class can have a variety of models and calibers. How do you let the logistics be done? Not to mention fighting for a year, it is just a 5-day fight, and then you have to rely on cold weapons! The actual combat effectiveness may not be as good as Hamas!
If you think about it, his industrial capacity is so much that he can't even produce the most basic rifles himself. In the last century, India tried to complete its own domestic rifle project, INSAS, but unrealistically hybridized a bunch of famous guns, and finally chose the NATO standard for small-caliber ammunition. After almost 20 years of mass production, he found that there was no supporting bullet production line in China, and then it took him another 12 years, but he still couldn't make bullets that met military regulations. Small-caliber ammunition has extremely high requirements for processing accuracy and propellant, and only a few countries have mastered it.
There is really no way, a few years ago, I could only find Russia to rebuild the AK203, and I have no confidence in myself, you see such a big country, for decades, he can't even get the most basic combat weapons rifles, how do you expect him to play with higher-tech modern technology weapons?
What's even more amazing is that it's already the 21st century, and this army is still a caste system? Do you dare to imagine? You should be a martial king? Fighting on slaves? Are you really not afraid of defection?
The lower ranks of the army were all low-caste and a small number of Sikhs, while the officers were largely high-caste hereditary.
We in the Qin Dynasty all know that the promotion of troops depends on military merits, so you should rely on your ancestors? I can only say that India's modern history has not suffered much, and the small life is too good!
Isn't this a group of low-caste grassroots soldiers who don't even know a word, can't even read the operating instructions of their weapons, can they fight a war? They also have seventy or eighty key Indian languages, and whether they can communicate with each other has to put a question mark? And the stuff that these people eat on weekdays doesn't have any nutrition at all, are you sure that such people can fight?
It may seem absurd to find that nearly half of the Indian military's military spending is used to pay for the benefits and salaries of active and retired officers, while ordinary soldiers basically do not spend military spending.
There is no ability for masters at all levels to contribute, but if you want to talk about the ability to accumulate money, it is the best in the world!
I like to go to England to study at a military academy at every turn, and I think I know the world and the future of the Indian military, but in the final analysis, it is just a trick to deceive the lower castes!
Case 1: The embarrassing performance of the Russian tank biathlon in 2017
In 2017, the Indian army took part in the Russian Tank Biathlon with its own T-90S tanks, claiming to be on track to win the championship. However, the result of the competition was disastrous - all the tanks of the Indian army were paralyzed due to malfunctions. Race video shows that India's Sikh drivers are highly skilled, but gunners and maintenance workers are poor. It was noted that the requirements for driving a tank are similar to driving a tractor and do not require much cultural background, while gunners and repairmen require real expertise. These technical shortcomings were also exposed in the competition. It is worth mentioning that India has performed poorly in the tank biathlon for the third year in a row, and even the organizer Russia has considered blacklisting it and banning it.
Case 2: The actual combat level of the elite units of the Indian army is worrying
In actual combat, the performance of the Indian army was similarly unsatisfactory. In one case, more than 200 Indian soldiers faced only 10 enemies in a cold-weapon battle, only to be defeated by 70 reinforcements from other countries. In the end, the Indian army was killed more than 20 people, more than 50 wounded and captured, and the remaining soldiers ran away. This level of combat not only cannot be attributed to the problem of equipment, but also confirms the poor physical quality, the low level of training, and the lack of on-the-spot command. In one sentence, even 200 pigs running into the deep mountains and old forests are not so easy to catch!
summary
The issue of the quality of the military quality and equipment of the Indian army is worrying. The blind pursuit of advanced weapons technology often ignores its actual industrial capabilities and the needs of systematic warfare. Coupled with the institutional corruption caused by the localization policy, the Indian army has a much higher cost of equipment procurement than other countries at the same level. However, these advanced weapons do not compensate for the shortcomings in the quality and training level of their soldiers. In the fierce battlefield environment, it is difficult to win by relying on the single superiority of core technology weapons, and it is urgent to comprehensively improve military quality and actual combat capability.
Although there are many problems, none of them affects the fact that India's military strength ranks fourth in the world!
