Indian tactics refer to a range of military strategies and approaches historically employed by Indian armies, influenced by diverse cultures, geography, and warfare practices. These tactics often emphasized guerrilla warfare, mobility, and the use of terrain to gain advantages over larger or better-equipped forces. Notable examples include the strategies used by figures like Chandragupta Maurya and Shivaji Maharaj, who effectively utilized deception, surprise attacks, and alliances. Additionally, Indian tactics have adapted over time, incorporating modern warfare principles while maintaining traditional elements.
