Chumar-Demchok: The Indian Army is all set to show its valour and strength along the Line of Actual Control and the regiments are ready to take on the Chinese Army at altitudes of over 14,500 feet in the area. This area is the world’s highest battlefield for tanks and infantry combat vehicles along the LAC.

The Indian Army has deployed T-90 & T-72 tanks along with BMP-2 Infantry Combat Vehicles which can operate at temperatures up to minus 40 degree Celsius, near Line of Actual Control in Chumar-Demchok area in Eastern Ladakh.

The temperatures at Eastern Ladakh dips to minus 35 degrees in the night during winters with high-speed freezing winds.

“The Fire and Fury Corps is the only formation of the Indian Army and also in the world to have actually deployed mechanised forces in such harsh terrain. The maintenance of the tanks, infantry combat vehicles and heavy guns is a challenge in this terrain. To ensure crew and equipment readiness, adequate arrangements are in place for both man and machine,” Major General Arvind Kapoor told news agency ANI.

The entire territory from Eastern Ladakh to the Tibetan plateau occupied by the Chinese forces is suitable for the operations of tanks.

“Adequate training with provision of special winter clothing will ensure troops’ morale remains high and they are ready to function in short notice. Along with this, training and honing of crew skills and drills will remain constant through the winters. The Indian Army in Eastern Ladakh is logistically well prepared,” he said.
