One can notice in the visuals that due to dense fog the visibility is low.  A soldier can be seen picking up the field radio to coordinate the missile launch, this procedure as the soldier calls it is "radio-telephony procedure." After receiving the nod from the commander, the soldier shows the deployment of the anti-tank guided missile team.

After receiving the orders, two soldiers can be seen swiftly taking their position in bunkers and setting up the anti-tank guided missile (ATGM) within seconds. With the screaming noise in the background, the two soldiers fired the missiles as they received information from the observers seated at top of the hill.

To tackle the threat from the Chinese Army at the Eastern Ladakh sector, the Indian Army has recently deployed M-777 Ultra-Light Howitzers along with the battle-proven Bofors artillery guns at the Tawang sector in Arunachal Pradesh, ANI reported on Wednesday.

As per the ANI report, along with this, the Indian Army has also deployed an upgraded version of the L70 anti-aircraft guns at LAC.
