It was a Cheetah helicopter, not a Chetak. The crash was at Yonphulla, Bhutan after take off from Khirmu in Arunachal Pradesh. The wreckage has been located. Investigations are on.

Will today's fatal crash jolt the painfully lumbering Indo-Russian project to replace the Indian military's old and increasingly rickety Cheetah & Chetaks with new generation helicopters?

Frankfurt am Main, Germany, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 8th Oct, 2019 ) :An American F-16 fighter jet crashed and its pilot ejected to safety near the city of Trier in western Germany on Tuesday, the German air force told AFP.

IN Mig29k trainer version crash in Goa both pilots ejected safely

1) a bird strike at an airport that is also used for large commercial airliners, where are there bird dispersal policies?
2) a MIG-29KUB doesn’t have the ability to continue flight after failure of a single engine after take off? That’s horrifying


Genuinely concerned about the MIG-29K now, looks like it could be another flying coffin.


Nice ,number 13 , congratulations guys. We dont need PAF downing our A/Cs. Lol and we dream of F35s , new Aircraft carriers. What a joke.
We mock Pakistan but we rarely hear their A/Cs crashing
Keep your wig on! India’s mil aircraft fleet is the 4th largest in the world so absolute number of crashes will always be high and India is an open society fo they are freely reported.


There’s no statistical evidence to support that India crashes aircraft at a higher rate than any other modern force.

Take a look at their crash record and you will know. Their F-7 constantly go down. Two Jf 17 crashed too. Check the no. of F 16 crash too. It's just we don't get the news.

With the sheer size of our aircraft fleet and different platforms we operate it's a messy situation.
