most of the weapons and ammunition that former LTTE had was of China made
the most interesting thing is Srilanka army were also trained in India and now they are training Pakistan army, so India is helping Pakistan - lol !
silliest statement ever!
then again Indians and their wet dreams about "assisting" Pakistan get rid of Indian paid terrorists - lol !
funny how Sri Lanka turned to China and Pakistan for its supply of weapons despite the rebels using "chinese made" weapons. ever heard of a thing called logic?
oh boo hoo! all your ranting summarized into one short sentence >>> “another Indian upset because Sri Lanka and Pakistan Armed forces are training together and learning from each other. PS: New Delhi approval not needed ;)” to that i say kudos! for whatever upsets Indians is awesome to the core.

You got it wrong there .... Sri Lankan and Pakistani forces are not training "together" !!!!!! Sri Lankan armed forces have been asked to provide "training" to Pakistani armed forces on counter insurgency operations :D
Hope you get it now !!!!
As for supplying arms to Sri Lanka .... think Pakistan army did not think it through .... now they are running short of "equipment" :D
off topic? really? then India being a third party has nothing to do with the thread, there goes half the thread and indian posts....
wanna try again? and this time stick to the topic maybe?
You are right India has nothing to do with this thread .... excepting ..... most of the Sri Lankan officers are trained in counter insurgency operations (and commando training) in India ...... having been trained by the best .... they have manged to defeat LTTE and are in a positoin to provide their experience to the Pakistani armed forces ........ simple !!!!
The units used 20 man teams which are split into four 4-8 man assault units. They have received training fromGreat Britain, India, Israel** and Pakistan. Approximately 40 per cent of the Regiments are airborne qualified. The three Commando Regiments and three Special Forces Regiments are grouped into an Independent Brigade under the command of a Brigadier. Approximately 40 percent of the two Commando Regiments are airborne qualified, either in Pakistan (training now discontinued), India or at the commando training school in Ganemulla.** It may operate in conjunction with the Special Boat Squadron of the Sri Lanka Navy, although this has not been confirmed. The Commando Regiment has only 4 Regular Units.

AB, this is plain old bickering at best.
Even an elementary level student of warfare knows that insurgencies are unique in many ways depending on the terrain, strategic location, the source of funding and training, and the political base etc.
Our hats off to S. Lankan army for their success against the Tamil terrorists. However expecting the same group of soldiers to fight in Wazirastan is a bit of a stretch. In fact those poor fellas may fail even in Jammu Kashmir let alone doing something big in FATA.
So take this whole news as a good will gesture by a newly-rejuvenated S. Lankan army. They need to be humble about this, because Tamils have a vast global terror-network. They may be down but not out. And S. Lankans may be looking at another 25 year war at some point in future.
Hate to say anything bad about S. Lanka Sinhala Buddhists. They in general are the most educated and most generous people in the whole of Sub-continent. Before they were overwhelmed with Tamil-Hindu/Christian scourge, these Buddhists were the major donors of human-eyes to Pakistan. Thus they were the only sub-continent nation who believed in large scale human-organs' donation.
Please end this pathetic zero-some discussion on an e$tupeed topic of "mine is bigger than thine" thingy. Both Pakistani and Indian armies have much more stinky fish (aka terror-organizations) to fry in areas far and wide across the sub-continent.
The same forces could not even capture one terrorist who attacked the Sri Lankan cricketers..top that.
Also since you government had extreme confidence in your army's ability they went ahead and signed the peace agreement with these so called Indian Trained Terrorists...
Not only you get training from SL forces, you also get air support from your friend Amrica. Isnt that wonderful. How good is Pakistan forces really!!!
Only Pakistanies can boast about their country's forces when they cannot maintain law and order within their own international border. Not only that they allow 10 people to arm themselves to the tooth and get training in their own country and sent them to the neighboring country to kill innocents. The best part is the Pakistanies come here and then boast that these cowards killed 200 innocents.
lol.. Law and order in a place that was autonomus since the British raj? And place that was fine until the American invasion of Afghanistan!
No one sent anyne to kill cowards in India, India invited the trouble. Maybe you should learn to control that disgusting rapist army of yours and you woudlnt get such brave people taking their revenge on you,...

Thank god you Indians are so incompetant or it might have mattered. As it stands, we dont need equipment to defeat you in any potential war, as your malnoursihed and incompetant soldiers would do the trick for us:)

Remember 2002?
They amassed half a million troops on the border and not fired a single shot. Still went home with 800+ dead Indians. Reasons ranging from unprofessional handling of explosives to sadistic maintenance of ammunition procedures.
Not to mention that almost every other two weeks, their plane falls out of the sky.
