What is Embarrassing Bird Hit Problem every budy face

There seems to be an epidemic of bird strikes in India which can be cured by simple measures such as keeping hawks near airports to drive away smaller birds. The fact that after so many bird strikes this continues until now is a little embarassing don't you think?

This is the IAF deal in 2015

https://thediplomat.com/2019/05/india-takes-delivery-of-first-ah-64e-apache-attack-helicopter/
The IAF signed a $2.2 billion contract with the U.S. government and Boeing for 22 AH-64Es and 15 CH-47F Chinook heavy-lift helicopters for the IAF in September 2015. The first batch of four AH-64Es is slated to be shipped to India beginning in July. The first four Chinook heavy-lift helicopters were inducted into IAF service on 25 March.

Out of which Apache cost 1.1 billion usd rest 1.1 billion for Chinook.

So 50millilion a piece.

Now army is going to sign a different deal. What extra is army buying have to be seen.

BTW people could have done some research before posting. But I guess trolling is more important than actually inquiring and learning.

This is my last post on the forum. I'm gone for a while . Trolls can have the forum . I have no interest in correcting people anymore who do not wish to learn . I'll be back when this place will be informative again .

Good luck people.

Nope, it’s more to do with add on’s and equipment selection. People just don’t get it over here a same equipment can cost double or triple the price depending on package you are trying to get.

FMS generally has the same price at what US military bargains for, some charges are flat fee no matter how much you order.

Will CDS General Bipin Rawat transfer AH-64 Apache combat helicopters to Army?

India recently concluded a deal worth $930 million for the purchase of 6 AH-64 Apache combat helicopters through U.S. Department of Defense’s Foreign Military Sales (FMS) route for the Indian Army Aviation Corps (AAC) after a long bitter turf war between Indian Air Force (IAF) and AAC over control of the combat helicopters which has the intended role to provide air support to the Army’s Strike Corps. Since the orders for Six New AH-64, Apache combat helicopters are technically the same as 22 procured for the IAF and was brought by evoking the follow on-option of original order contracted in 2015 for the IAF. AAC was allowed to procure and keep Six follow on-option AH-64 Apache combat helicopters in 2017 and AAC now has plans to make a case for more 39 Apache Gunships due to IAF not agreeing to transfer 22 combat gunships which are already has been procured. There has been growing chorus by Indian military planners to avoid duplications of expensive assets like combat gunships and AAC has been arguing that world over combat gunships which are usually used to provide air support to the Army’s Strike Corps is maintained and flown by Army pilots under its command and IAF should transfer 22 gunships already in its possession. The matter has already reached Chief of Defence Staff General Bipin Rawat who has taken up himself to convince IAF top brass to transfer combat gunships to the ACC. The decision is likely to be taken by end of this year or ACC will be allowed to raise the requirement for 39 more AH-64 Apache combat helicopters.

Well he just watched the Netflix documentary it seems. After that mission the crews wrote letters to Boeing to show their appreciation for the choppers. It was bad Mission planning and intelligence failure.
