NEW DELHI: The
Indian Air Force
(IAF) achieved another milestone with a successful
Night Vision Goggles
(NVG) aided
landing
of a
C-130J aircraft
at an
Advanced Landing Ground
in the Eastern sector.
The IAF took to Twitter to announce this significant achievement, highlighting the successful operation that further enhances its
operational reach
and
defence preparedness
.
The IAF shared two videos with a caption, "IAF continues to expand capabilities, reinforcing commitment to safeguard nation's sovereignty by enhancing operational reach and defence preparedness. #HarKaamDeshKeNaam."
The use of
NVGs
for night-time operations significantly enhances the IAF's capability to conduct operations with precision even in low light conditions, thereby bolstering its strategic advantage.
Advanced Landing Grounds play a crucial role in enhancing the IAF's ability to respond swiftly to any contingency in remote and forward areas. By successfully conducting NVG-aided landings at such locations, the IAF demonstrates its commitment to maintaining a high level of readiness across all theatres of operation.
