Web Series Review | Breaking Point Season 2: Showcases The Making Of Fearsome Soldiers – FilmyVoice
The title ‘Breaking Level’ conjures a damaging connotation within the minds, and thus for this non-fiction, four-part collection streaming on ‘discovery+’, it’s a misnomer. It doesn’t present us the second of best pressure at which somebody or one thing offers away, as an alternative, it’s an inspiring collection that makes us conscious that robust moments don’t final, robust individuals do.
It showcases the varied coaching faculties of the Indian Armed forces the place younger recruits are pushed to excel and turn into fearsome troopers with dedication, grit, and caliber.
The primary episode titled, ‘The Artillery- Huge Weapons of India’, takes us to the Artillery Coaching Centre at Nasik. Right here we’re launched to ultralight and medium cannons of deadly energy like 130MM, Bofors, ULH (Ultralight Howitzer) and M46, and Extremely Heavy artilleries just like the K9 Vajra and Grad BM21 Multi-barrel Rocket launcher.
On the centre, younger cadets relying on their aptitude, are educated underneath an “Ustaad” to turn into a Gunner, Surveyor, Technical Assistant, Radio Operator, or a Driver.
This episode primarily focuses on the roles of the Gunner and the Driver driving HMVs (Excessive Mobility Autos).
The second episode titled, ‘Military Aviation Troopers within the Sky’, focusses on the Military Aviators who’re a category aside. These Military aviators, also referred to as Helicopter Pilots, assist the Indian Military to assault enemy troops or transport troopers throughout surgical strikes.
We’re initially taken to the Fight Military Aviation Coaching College in Nasik, the place we’re knowledgeable how the greenhorns are educated and groomed to fly and carry out primary maneuvers within the sky with helicopters just like the HAL Chetak.
Later we’re transported to Jodhpur, the place the rookies are taught advanced and daring strikes to fly, fight and hunt collectively. The coaching is imparted on the HAL Rudra, an assault Indian-made helicopter.
The third episode options officers of the Armoured Corps and is titled ‘The Armoured Corps- India’s Iron Steeds’. It’s on the Armoured Corps Centre and College the place its younger officers of the cavalry are given technical and tactical coaching to be efficient troop leaders. How they prepare on the T72 and T90 Bhishma (Tanks) kinds the crux of this episode.
Within the last episode we get to see the making of a Paratrooper. How they put together themselves to leap out of aircrafts, shoot and acclimatise themselves for city warfare is part of their coaching which is imparted to them on the Para Coaching College.
With glorious digicam work, every episode brings to life (the sentiments of the primary time and unforgettable experiences of the troopers) what mere phrases of the speaking heads can’t reproduce. The fascinating a part of the collection is that it offers us in-depth data akin to a crash course on the varied points of the topic and provides nuggets of historic significance which will maintain your curiosity.
The collection is reasonably paced and interesting. The sound design together with the background score- elevates the viewing expertise. The one difficulty is the voice-over of the narrator – Ross Huguet. His diction merely doesn’t swimsuit the Indian viewers.
