The 1971 War
This is the jewel of the Indian Army, the blitzkrieg attack on East Pakistan could not really have been bettered by any other army.

Modern Indian Armed Forces
In the occasional exercise with the US, the Indian forces very much hold their own, although talk of them 'beating' the US is exaggerated. The Cope India series of exercise in particular have given the patriotic Indian much to cheer about, with the US Air Force afterwards admitting it underestimated India's capabilities and tactics.

Equipment
Much of the Indian Army's equipment is not of the very front rank, compared to the best of Western equipment, and most issues with the Indian Army do concern modernisation of its equipment, which is not complete.

However, the existing equipment is likely to be adequate to the missions it may be required to carry out, and the way India is building its own armaments industry is likely to pay dividends eventually.

The Future
We would expect that in future the Indian army will continue its rise and at the least maintain its position as the pre-eminent force in the subcontinent.

IAF's top Gun - Su-30MKI. That counts among the Top 4.5th gen jets in the World. IAF has 170 of them, forming the backbone

Indian Army best tanks - Arjun and T-90. T-90s are already known all around the world, India has about 800 of them. Arjun on the other hand, made the T-90 look inferior to its capabilities when they were tested with each other in 2010. From my research, Arjun is around the 7th best tank in the World, T-90 is like the 10th best..

Navy - 2 Aircraft Carriers, Stealth Frigates, Stealth Destroyers, Stealth Corvettes. All 21st century material, equipped with the World's fastest Anti-ship cruise missile, BrahMos. Got a Nuclear submarine too now.


Strategic weapons - Various missiles, from SRBMs to ICBMs to cruise missiles,etc.

Hisory..Wars/conflicts during 1947,61,65,67,,71,84,99. Won all, except 62. Also the 3rd largest countributor to UN peacekeeping and has troops serving all around the world. Some of the best trained forces and SFs ever seen.
