Chinese think tank said China main focus is US and on the easern side.

But if China focus on India it can easily dissolve India because he said india is not really a country.

Many regions on the eastern side want to break up from India. And all China has to do is to support them

- How is that guy going to access additional ammo? I don't see a chest rig.
- They might want to invest in a snow cover for that OD green ruck, it really stands out, Even more so if he is going prone of doing the rice paddy squat.
- That sleeping mat is not going to do him much good without a sleeping bag, which I don't see. Also the mat looks really dated, something we carried in the Army in the late 1990s.
- If you want to issue a 7.62 rifle, you might want to put an ACOG on it. Even an airsoft ACOG would be better than nothing.

Airsoft ACOG will not hold zero on a real firearm, not with a 7.62 anyways.

Agreed. Still better than nothing, if you can mass fires.
Also, what kind of M80 ball ammo are the Indians using. Did they import them as a package from SIG or did they go cheap and try to locally source the stuff?

I just realized that there is something very familiar about the whole Ladakh fiasco. When I was a kid my family would often go on road trips — sometimes a hours-long jaunt but other times a week long journey across the southern United States. For the latter we need to carry a lot of supplies, and often times ten minutes after departure my mother would inform us that “oh we forgot to pack the tooth brush” or “oh we forgot to take umbrellas” and as a result, we would have turn our car around.

The problem with Indian troops in Ladakh is similar. Today it is “oh we forgot to stock enough ammo” and tomorrow it is “oh we don’t have enough winter clothes or fuel” and the day after it will be “wouldn’t it be nice if we had advanced surveillance drones”? Unfortunately, they can’t solve their supply issues by simply wheeling a car around.
