Indian Navy VBSS personnel; note the new digital camo and Tavor TAR-21s, similar outfit and loadout as MARCOS

Also note the Tavor's are fitted with Mepro gunsights. That the Camo pattern seen here is US Army UCP, it's short comings in close quarters really make little difference so it's practical.
on the guest side ( Russian I am guessing) Late model AK100 series carbines one of which is fitted out with a M4 style stock and rails system with EOtech sight and magnifier. from front left. berezhka pattern camo This is really really old stuff. and a second version of the same. The Russians never really nailed just one color set so there is a ton of variations even in the same unit. check out the Collar of the Center soldier you can see his telnyashka. The stripped undershirt is a mark of a elite in Russia. the color of the stripes identify the unit type. Dark blue indicates navy or Naval infantry lack would mean submariner, light blue is airborne, Forest green is boarder troops, and Red is MVD.
Second row form left to right the first two are wearing Flectar a Russian clone of German Flectarn pattern, another Berezhka and finally modern EMR aka digital flora aka Tetris

Note the Sterling SMG a world war 2 vet that still pulled it's weight almost 8 decades after it's first entry into service.

India finalises follow-on C-130J buy
By: ATUL CHANDRABANGALORE Source: 10:30 24 Jul 2014
Lockheed Martin has received a contract worth almost $565 million to produce an additional six C-130J-30 tactical transports for the Indian air force.

“The total cumulative face value of the contract is $2.06 billion,” says the US Department of Defense of the Foreign Military Sales deal. India’s Defence Acquisition Council had cleared the acquisition in September 2013.

Deliveries are scheduled to begin in 2017, with the new aircraft to be operated from Panagarh air base in India’s eastern state of West Bengal.

India placed its first, $1.2 billion order for six C-130Js in late 2008, with the special mission-configured transports having entered use at Hindon air base by 2011. New Delhi has chosen not to order an additional aircraft to replace aircraft KC-3803, which crashed in March this year.
