510: APACHE HELICOPTER DELIVERY DELAYED

 

 

It is always a pleasure to interact with Shiv Aroor on contemporary defence and security issues.

 

On the latest episode of Battle Cry (India Today), the focus is on the delay in the delivery of Apache attack helicopters from the United States to the Indian Army. This delay has impacted the Indian Army’s preparedness, as these helicopters were intended for close air support to tanks and troops. This is the second major US defence supply contract to be affected by supply chain related slippages, the first being the delay in the supply of engines for the Indian Air Force’s Tejas fighter jets.
