Battlefront Miniatures
15mm (1:100 scale)
The Indian troops sent to Burma and Malaya to shore up the defences in case of Japanese attack were hurriedly raised and shipped off to theatre with the intention to train them properly once they had arrived. However, the Japanese attack was swift and limited training took place. By 1943 training of native Indian troops had improved greatly, but specialised jungle warfare training was still limited. With improved organisation, supply, and training, by 1943 the Indian riflemen are now the equal of their British comrades, often showing an enthusiasm for the fighting not seen in their more conservatively natured British brothers-in-arms.
Each Rifle Squad has a Bren or the similar looking Vickers-Berthier light machine-gun, as well as rifles and grenades. Like the British riflemen, the Indian Army platoons also had a 2-inch light mortar and a Boys anti-tank rifle in each platoon.
