    Any speecific reason to not have full fledged air bases in Arunachal Pradesh but only ALGs. If they want any new domestic airport they should club a sqadron with HAS.

    Lack of knowledge of decorum and military honor and traditions :? Waiting for HD videos. Even IAF just released shaky low resolution , non-professional videos. The PR dept should work a bit harder else release unedited videos and wait for youtubers to take over.
