Indian Air Force’s AH-64E Apache attack helicopter was forced to make an emergency landing in Punjab province on 17 April.

Local media reported that the helicopter made an emergency landing in a Hoshiyarpur village after developing a technical fault. There was no loss of life or property.

An IAF AH-64E Apache, assigned to Pathankot airbase, made an emergency landing in a field in Hoshiarpur.

The first four AH-64E Apache multi-role combat helicopters have arrived from America in 2019. The helicopters were transported onboard an Antonov An-124 transport aircraft and arrived at Hindon airbase in Ghaziabad on 27 July.

The AH-64E Apache is an advanced multi-mission helicopter with the latest technology insertions, maintaining its standing as the world’s best attack helicopter. The Apaches also have a fully integrated, digital cockpit that enhances the aircraft’s mission performance. It is uniquely suited to meet a commander’s needs, including reconnaissance, security, peacekeeping operations, and lethal attack, across myriad environments—without reconfiguration.

AH-64E Apache attack helicopters are being purchased to replace the Mi-35 fleet. Alongside the capability to shoot fire and forget anti-tank guided missiles, air to air missiles, rockets and other ammunitions, it also has modern EW capabilities to provide versatility to helicopters in a network centric aerial warfare.

Like that F-16 a few weeks back ?

Everybody including former US fighter pilots agree that it was a technical fault where the pilot tried to save the jet till last.

Meanwhile Indian even during airshows tend to crash mid air or into the ground in general.

Haha, doing a loop so close to ground and calling it a save lol. And you speak as if only Pakistan has tech faults and Indian pilots are taught to crash jets. Neither you nor us are the OEMs. So before you try to take a jibe, look at your record too. I think you had a trainer crash a few days ago too. So keep it respectable. I wasnt the one who wished for death in comments.
