An anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) squad of the Indian Army showed how to destroy enemy tanks in Arunachal Pradesh's Tawang sector
A team of the Indian Army's anti-tank squad did a missile-firing demo in Arunachal Pradesh's Tawang sector, near the border with China, to show how they would destroy armoured targets. In visuals, the heavily armed soldiers are seen taking positions in bunkers on a mountain ridge, from where they could observe enemy movement on a road in the distance. Visibility is low in the area due to a thick blanket of fog. #WATCH Indian Army soldiers demonstrate battle drill to destroy enemy tanks in the Tawang sector near the Line of Actual Control (LAC) #ArunachalPradeshpic.twitter.com/3XYvYjB1hY
"I will simulate the scenario with a radio telephony procedure," a soldier said in the video shared by news agency ANI, and picked up the field radio to coordinate the missile launch. "Now you will see the deployment of the anti-tank guided missile team in front of us," he said, after getting the go-ahead from the commander on radio.
Two men quickly reached the bunker and started setting up the anti-tank guided missile or ATGM within seconds. Much shouting went on behind them as they got information from observers perched atop the hill. Then they fired the missile in a simulation.
"As soon as the enemy target is engaged, the confirmation of the kill is taken from an observation post and it is passed to the company commander," the soldier said.
