Indian Army chopper makes precautionary landing in Maharashtra’s Sangli; no casualty

An Advance Light Helicopter of the Indian Army has made a “precautionary landing” at a farm in Maharashtra’s Sangli district due to a technical issue in its engine, police said. Three Army personnel – two pilots and a technician – were on board at the time of the incident on Saturday morning, they said, adding that there was no casualty.

The helicopter, belonging to the Army Aviation Corps, was going from Nashik in Maharashtra to Bengaluru, a police official said on Saturday.

It made the precautionary landing at around 9.50 am on Saturday at a farm near Erandoli village in Miraj tehsil of Sangli district due to some technical issue, he said.

After a couple of hours, another chopper arrived with technical help. The issue was later fixed and both the choppers subsequently took off, the official said.

Many downvoted for same comment. ALH, AUH , ACH or anything based out of Rudra is susceptible to risk. HAL never fixed the issue which since Rudra times. It is better to import rather losing our men. The ratios of accident or precautionary landings are too high than other countries.

Apache was grounded by US itself. So where do we import from the country which does not have a single issue.
