Indian Army Apache Helicopters
Summary: The Indian Army is set to receive its first three AH-64E Apache attack helicopters from Boeing in December 2024, following a delay due to supply chain issues. Designed for desert operations and armored threats, Apaches are less effective in high-altitude regions, where the indigenous Light Combat Helicopter (LCH) by Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd will be deployed. The Army has established the 451 Aviation Squadron to operate the Apaches and plans to expand its fleet further. This procurement, part of an 0 million deal, aims to enhance the Army's aviation capabilities across varied terrains, addressing India’s strategic defense needs.
