IAF Cheetah helicopter, lifeline for troops deployed in the Siachen Glacier: IN PICS
With a low basic weight and a configuration tailor-made for high altitude operations, the IAF Cheetah lands with ease at altitudes beyond the flight envelope of most other helicopters.
The Indian Air Force is one of the most competent and powerful forces in the world with advanced planes and helicopters. One of such helicopter is Cheetah, which has been serving the Indian Air Force and also the Indian Army for long now and serves a very important purpose. Despite being too small for any troop movement, the IAF Cheetah is a lifeline for troops deployed in the Siachen glacier, world's highest battleground. With a low basic weight and a configuration tailor-made for high altitude operations, the Cheetah land with ease at altitudes beyond the flight envelope of most other helicopters. Here's a spectacular image gallery of the IAF Cheetah. (Image courtesy Neel385/ Twitter.)
