Apache of IAF makes emergency landing: All you need to know about India's elite attack helicopter

An Apache attack helicopter belonging to the Indian Air Force made an emergency landing on Thursday morning in Haled village, which falls under the jurisdiction of Nangalpur Police Station in Punjab’s Pathankot district. Initial reports indicate that there were no injuries or damages. The helicopter, which took off from Pathankot Air Force Station, had to land in an open field as a precaution after reportedly encountering technical issues. This incident comes just days after another Indian Air Force Apache helicopter made a precautionary landing on June 6 during a routine training mission near Saharanpur in Uttar Pradesh. Earlier, on April 3, an IAF Apache helicopter on a regular sortie in Ladakh also had to make an emergency landing at around 12,000 feet near the Khardungla pass.
