Six Boeing Apache helicopters are set to be positioned by the Indian Army near the Pak border in Jodhpur
Six Apache fighter helicopters will be deployed in western Rajasthan, close to the Pakistani border, as part of India’s plans to strengthen its defenses. The helicopters, which arrived in Jodhpur on Friday, will be a part of an Army Aviation Corps new squadron.
India is one of many countries using this cutting-edge combat helicopter, as Boeing previously supplied the Indian Air Force with 22 Apache helicopters of the AH-64E variant in 2020. The Apache is a dangerous tool that comes with a top-notch night vision system and missiles that can hit 138 targets in one minute.
“The Indian Air Force (IAF) currently operates 22 AH-64Es,” a defense ministry spokesman stated. Six AH-64Es were ordered by the Army Aviation Corps. Getting these will enable India to use aircraft alongside the Netherlands, Egypt, Greece, Israel, South Korea, and several other countries, thus enhancing its air power capabilities.
The new squadron, which is scheduled to be enlisted on March 15, will be stationed in Jodhpur and will be vital in thwarting any possible military invasions by Pakistan.
As the most sophisticated combat helicopter in the world, the Apache AH-64E can arm missiles that can hit 138 targets in a minute and has a sophisticated night vision system. This helicopter can reach a maximum speed of 280 km/h, making it a powerful force in the sky.
The Apache AH-64E is outfitted with AGM 114 Hellfire anti-tank missiles and Stinger missiles, making it capable of managing both ground and aerial
