Army builds up firepower along LAC, deploys new attack ships on Lake Pangong

The Indian Army has increased its capabilities along the LAC and introduced new assault ships. The Landing Craft Assault can transport her 35 combat troops at once and can reach any area of ​​Pangong Lake in a very short time

Jammu & Kashmir : To significantly increase India's military strength in Ladakh, the Indian Army has deployed  new attack ships to Lake Pangong  along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China.  Landing Craft Attacks (LCAs) enhance operations along the LAC. The much more versatile 

  Landing Craft Assault overcomes launch, speed and capacity limitations. LCA has enhanced its ability to function across  water obstacles in Eastern Ladakh. The LCA was developed independently by her Aquarius Ship Yard Limited in Goa, officials said. 

 In addition, several other major ticketing platforms are included to increase opportunities along the LAC. These platforms are integral to the operations of the Indian Army.

Protected Infantry  Mobility Vehicle (IPMV)

There were a large number of infantry soldiers on the northern border that were unprotected and limited mobility. This has been overcome to a large extent by the introduction of two types of highly maneuverable vehicles. The first  is the Protected Infantry  Mobility Vehicle made by Tata Advance Systems Limited, which looks like a mini BMP. In addition to excellent maneuverability, this vehicle provides enhanced protection for the infantrymen in it. 

 Mobile Infantry  is a troop transport vehicle that can be used for rapid patrolling and rapid troop integration for various missions such as reconnaissance and assault operations.

Rapid response combat vehicle

The second vehicle along with the Infantry Mobile Protective Vehicle to enhance the mobility of troops east of Ladakh is the Rapid Response Combat Vehicle. It facilitates rapid troop deployment  and will allow for much quicker response. Vehicles were purchased from Tata Advanced Systems Ltd. They are tailor-made vehicles with high mobility, improved firepower and protection. This will facilitate the creation of a moral upward movement in our northern borders.

Mini remote pilot aerial system (RPAS)

Apart from the limited air force and drones operating at the  tactical level, the Indian Army has limited surveillance, detection and reconnaissance capabilities at the  infantry battalion and mechanized units level. gender. RPAS has given all three capabilities to the battalion commander, and today the Indian Army gathers much better  real-time information than our adversaries at the tactical level.

Solar project for high ranges like Siachen

One of the most active and difficult terrain in the country is the Siachen Glacier. The entire power requirement in the area to run various equipment is only met by power from a stationary generator. The use of kerosene  and other conventional energy sources is predominant. A photovoltaic solar power plant has now been installed to improve  overall energy demand and also avoid dependence on fossil fuels. The solar power plant has significantly increased Partapur's electricity supply. The extracted energy is  used for nutrition works, security lighting, hospitals and major facilities.

Future infantry soldier in the role (F-INSAS)

The future infantry warrior is  equipped with three main subsystems. The first subsystem is a state of the art, modern  assault rifle, along with hologram sights and day and night reflectors. Depending on the need, a thermal  or photo tempered glass viewfinder will be used. Lights are mounted on weapons and also on helmets to allow for 360-degree visibility and accuracy in combat conditions.

In addition to the main weapon system,  soldiers will also be equipped with a multi-mode  grenade that has also been purchased locally along with a utility knife. 

 Under conditions of imminent threat from mines, he will wear mine-resistant protective footwear. The second subsystem is the protection system. This provides protection through  specially designed helmets and bulletproof vests. It will also feature modular pockets and harnesses to carry grenades, magazines, radio sets and other combat gear. 

 The third subsystem includes a communication and monitoring system. Each soldier will wear a hands-free radio, and the division commander will also wear additional communication and monitoring devices for real-time communication with his team.
