Airfield security: lessons for the IAF / Chopra, Anil   Journal Article
Chopra, Anil Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Contents A typical IAF base is secured during peacetime by DSC personnel manning the peripheral watch towers and the important operational assets augmented with air-warrior guards comprising non-technical staff who are not engaged in active operational activities. DSC numbers need serious augmenting and forward bases should have a relatively younger lot. The limited Garud Commandos act as Quick-Reaction Force and take on larger real-time threats. While the Garud are better armed and better trained, they have other tasks and roles such as Suppression of Enemy Air Defence (SEAD) through Radar-bursting, and Combat Search and Rescue (CSAR). Garud units need to be increased to two from present one in forward bases.

Pathankot airbase attack and India’s fight against terrorism / Yadav, Deepak   Article
Yadav, Deepak Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract India cannot afford mismanagement of a strategic border state. Corruption not only distorts the local economy and politics, it destroys morale, creating the perfect conditions for terrorist infiltration and attack. Now that it’s apparent that terrorists (and the ISI) have widened their incursive focus beyond Kashmir, India cannot let any of its western border states be so rotten.
