Army chopper crashes in Siachen, one pilot killed

[harpoon]

The dead pilots families have AK Anthony to thank for delaying the purchase of helicopters. The deal was supposed to be signed years ago. Now it will cost more (rupee being weaker) and it will take longer, forcing pilots to fly helicopters past their lifespan.

He wants to die a saint and nothing in the world can persuade him to act otherwise.

So it means the IA 's 8 year no-casuality in Siachen is broken.

It was actually no-casualities-due-to-weather. This one is not due to weather, as far as we know.
