(NSI News Source Info) TORONTO, Canada - August 4, 2013: Last year, the Indian Air Force purchased 22 Apaches for US $1.3 billion. Beyond the Indian Army request, a third order of helicopters could be in the offing for India’s planned Mountain Corps.
The Indian Army wants its Apaches to be exclusive to the service and not associated with the Air Force’s 22 helicopters. Meanwhile, an Indian Army official said the newly sanctioned Mountain Corps of roughly 30,000 troops, which could be deployed along the China border, would also be equipped with yet another purchase of attack helicopters.
