Amid India-China LAC Standoff, Boeing Completes Delivery Of Apache, Chinook Helicopters To IAF

Boeing was scheduled to deliver 22 Apache and 15 Chinook helicopters to India and the whole process from contract signing and delivery was completed in five years.

The IAF had pressed its deadly attack Apaches into patrolling duty near the LAC along with premier jets like Sukho Su-30 MKIs and MiG-29s. The Chinook workhorses on the other hand were instrumental in transporting personnel and defence equipment towards the LAC.
