Border Forces purchase Toyota Fortuner & Ford Endeavour for high altitude operations

The official tweeted pictures are too dramatic i must say! At least a different colour shade in stead of the common white and few necessary modifications would have provided some realistic touch. Suitability of the dmax Vcross is spot on. I won't be surprised if Isuzu has already looked at this segment for future apart from the conventional sales.

looks more like VIP escort than any border duties.

And no bullet proof jackets or even rudimentary protection from projectiles for our forces makes me sad. Looks like some higher level officer gets some cute ideas and they immidiately go and do a photo-shoot.

Looks like a pic off a movie set rather than a real ITBP shot!

ITBP always has civilian registration numbers of CH01.
