Meet Major Soiba Maningba Rangnamei, Indian Army Officer from 16 Bihar.
From Senapati, Manipur. First in his village to clear NDA.

The joint training is aimed at enhancing synergy and strengthening the robust defence partnership between the two nations.
stand behind this and you're dead ๐
Fire โ cartridge base blows out โ gas splits โ shell goes forward, gas jets out the back โ recoil cancelled.
The price: a backblast dangerous 30 m behind.
An IAF C-17 in Abuja looked "all taped up". Worn out? No.
1 - Those patches: peeling paint, the photographer later agreed
2 - Airliners use speed tape for this. A 787-9 wing, taped so paint won't peel
3 - An A321 nose
Aluminium tape, holds at 900+ km/h ๐ฎ๐ณ

27 October 1947. Raiders were closing in on Srinagar. That morning, 1 SIKH flew in from Delhi and went straight into battle.
Their CO, Lt Col Dewan Ranjit Rai, fell that same day holding them off near Baramulla: independent India's first Maha Vir Chakra. (1/5)

It has no recoil: the blast vents out the back. Never stand behind it.
This is the Carl Gustaf, an 84 mm Swedish recoilless rifle, in service since 1948. India has made it under licence since 1976. Next: 450 M4s, to be built in Haryana.
Rating: 9/10

Why a rifle bullet spins about 3,000 times a second ๐ฌ
Primer โ powder โ gas โ bullet into the bore โ rifling grips it โ spin โ straight flight.
AK rifling turns once every 240 mm. Leave the muzzle at 715 m/s and that's ~3,000 spins a second. ๐ฎ๐ณ
Slithering needs at least 3 men: one flies, one holds the rope steady, one slides down.
1 - ALH Dhruv by HAL. Flew to 27,500 ft in Siachen in 2007. IAF's Sarang team flies it too
2 - Down the rope, no harness
3 - First man down holds it for the next
