SP's MILITARY YEARBOOK 2019 46TH ISSUE 75 Very early in the 1990s, SP’s Military Yearbook introduced the exciting concept of editorial support to its valued advertisers. This concept was quickly picked up by many global leaders in publishing in the subsequent years. The belief at SP’s has been to offer to advertisers significantly higher returns and brand impact than merely the face value of the investment. With this objective in mind, we introduced the concept of editorial coverage titled ‘Weapons Equipment Vehicles’—a colour section dedicated to the range of key programmes, products and technologies offered by our advertisers. While premium advertisements, such as a Full Page Double Spread, attract about five to six additional full pages for extensive company profile, the smallest position such as a Quarter Page are also entitled to at least one full page to include a detailed presentation of the advertiser.

A modernised Pakistan Army with an edge over India in armour, artillery and airpower prompted her to plan aggression on Kashmir in 1965. It was a three-phased programme. In the first phase the Indian capacity to n n n n 150 SP's MILITARY YEARBOOK 2019 46TH ISSUE react was tested in the Rann of Kutch. In the second phase trouble was fomented in Kashmir. In the third phase an attempt was made to bottle up the Indian Army in Jammu and Kashmir by sealing the supply line in Chhamb-Jaurian sector of Jammu. Pakistan’s adventurism was foiled as Indian Army succeeded in making gains across the international borders and along the Line of Control (notably Hajipir). A cease-fire was agreed upon with effect from September 23, 1965 with UN efforts. The Tashkent Declaration and the subsequent agreement between the two countries led to the disengagement of forces and their withdrawal to positions occupied WWW.SPSMILITARYYEARBOOK.COM HQ Divisions (Armoured/Infantry/Mountain/Artillery) HQ Independent Brigade (Armoured/ Infantry/Mountain/Parachute/Artillery/ Air Defence Artillery) HQ Sub-Area Static Establishments HQ Brigades (Armoured/Infantry/Mountain/Artillery) by them before August 5, 1965. In the 1965 War, Pakistan suffered heavily in men and material with an estimate that Pak Army lost 5988 killed and many more wounded. Pakistan also lost 475 tanks. The 1971 war between India and Pakistan was fought both on the eastern and the western fronts. India adopted aggressive strategy on the eastern front and a defensive strategy on the western front. On the Eastern front the Indian Army ably supported by the Mukti Bahini defeated four divisions and 30,000 para-military forces of the Pakistan Army in the thirteen days’ war. In the west, a large area of Pakistani territory was occupied by Indian troops. On 16 December, Lt General Niazi of Pakistan Army surrendered to Lt General Aurora of Indian Army with 93,000 regular and paramilitary men. War on the Eastern front ended in a complete victory for India and liberation of Bangladesh. The period after 1971 War saw the steady modernisation of the Indian Army with equipment for modern war. The Expert Committee under the Chairmanship of Lt General K.V. Krishna Rao submitted its report in 1976. Some of its major recommendations started getting implemented in the eighties. The expansion of mechanized forces was achieved as a result of this report. On April 13, 1984, 34 soldiers of the Indian Army landed west of Siachen glacier and occupied the Bilafond La pass. This was the opening move in what is referred to as Operation Meghdoot between India & Pakistan which continues till date. During the period July 1987 to March 1990, Indian Army saw action in Operation Pawan where the Indian Peace Keeping Force (IPKF) was deployed in Sri Lanka in accordance with the Indo-Sri Lankan accord of July 29, 1987. On November 3, 1988, the Indian Army launched Operation Cactus in Maldives to prevent mercenaries from overthrowing the WWW.SPSMILITARYYEARBOOK.COM Government of Maldives and while it did not involve much fighting, it demonstrated to the World the speed and efficiency with which the Indian Armed Forces could react. This period (1989 onwards) also saw the start of the terrorism and insurgency in Kashmir and deployment of additional troops in J&K. As indications of Pakistani intrusions came in starting from May 1999, it became clear that India was facing an attempt by the Pakistan to change the LoC using its regular troops. Air and artillery (155mm Howitzers) was employed with devastating effect to repel the intrusions and claim back the lost territories. Thereafter, a massive build-up by Indian Army was ordered in the wake of the December 13, 2001, terrorist attack on Parliament House. This 10-month-long mobilisation along the border with Pakistan generated high levels of tension, led to some positive changes in India’s military doctrine and hastened its military modernisation together with organizational changes. The influx of terrorism from Pakistan continued unabated. On September 18, 2016, four terrorists from Pakistan struck a brigade headquarters administrative base at Uri and killed 17 unarmed and unsuspecting soldiers in their tents. On the night of September 28-29, Indian Army’s Special Forces struck at seven launch pads of the terrorists across the line of control along a frontage of about 200 km in two different Corps Zones thus achieving complete surprise over the Pakistani military establishment and inflicted considerable casualties on the terrorists and military personnel in the area. Indian Army continues to face four types of threats and challenges including traditional threats from China and Pakistan; contemporary threats in the form of terrorism; internal challenges; and out of area contingency threats.

China is keen to position itself as the pivot for “world peace,” but with clear red lines defined on its core “sovereignty, security, and development interests.” There is an endeavour to balance peaceful intentions and great power aspirations 2. China believes that “configuration of strategic power is becoming more balanced”. There is new found confidence in China’s military power, consequent to technological advancements, modernisation, structural changes in command and control and extensive training of the PLA. 3. At the same time the paper also highlights China’s perceived risks from technological surprise and growing technological generation gap. It acknowledges PLA’s lagging mechanisation and it has to develop capabilities moving ahead from ‘informationization’ to ‘intelligent warfare’. China’s rapid progress in developing unmanned systems, AI and robotics manifests in its outlook for future wars. 4. The paper emphasizes on “intensification of global military competition” and blames US for “undermining global strategic stability”. 5. Modernisation and restructuring of the armed forces is in line with Xi Jinping’s thinking of China’s future. In addition to evolving threats, priority is on loyalty to the Chinese Communist party, with emphasis on core military functions, discipline and curbing corruption.

Daring to tread the path that very few can even dream of venturing on, it was his foresight which a year later fructified into the Military Yearbook, later renamed SP's Military Yearbook .
