The reality of Indian chopper in Gilgit

[Windjammer]

Most of you must have seen images of the captured Indian Army Chetak helicopter displayed in Gilgit. Although there are some stories circulating as how did it actually end up in Pakistan with Indians claiming that it crash landed (IN PAKISTAN). However the reality is it had landed near the border on a spying mission but was spotted. As the Indian pilots attempted to escape, they were overpowered by Major Ali Jan Orakzai and apprehended.

Someone really need a LIFE.

I really hope the poster is a teenage or a young bachelor. Or else its a pity.

On topic - The pilots were really cool. They park their helicopter beyond enemy lines, went on a spy mission in an area where pakistani majors were deployed. Once spotted, they tried to run away to their helicopter, but major was good in Kabaddi, thus pilots fail to cross the line.

Stupid Indian spy, they could simply be air dropped.

They had 90000 of our men as living and breathing war trophies. Stop flattering yourself.

Only comment with some sense - but alas, got deleted !!

Thank you good friend third eye...I can see why the thread was locked.

@Windjammer , nothing 'revealing' about it, it is the official story. This is a popular tourist site and is pretty much in the center of the city too. We have a house near it, just a couple of minutes of drive at maximum. Always see folks around it taking pictures and etc, etc...

Stupid Indian spy, they could simply be air dropped.

Maybe they wanted a way to get out too, a quick mission on ground maybe. The condition of this helicopter is quite good, so i don't buy the stories of it crashing and etc,etc...

Chopper row resolved: Pak returns Indian Army helicopter, crew
Pakistani forces had forced the helicopter to land after it allegedly violated its airspace.

Never knew you arrange marriages....and yup we should believe the Indian version that of all the places it crashed into Pakistani territory or just drop the spies as no one will notice and they will also make their way back like a walk in the park.

And we flog a dead story again.

On topic: no one fires on a heli in LC region. But then, anyone who has served there, would be knowing it better. 2009, there was a fire on a Pakistani post (due to kero heater) opposite Tilel Valley in winters. A Pakistani Mi-17 came with emergency rations to drop on the affected post. But missed the post and started hovering over an Indian post.

The Indian post had Igla. But did Indians fire? No sir! The Company Commander at the post got an Indian flag out and started waving to the hovering helicopter which was planning to make a drop. The Pilot acknowledged and the company commander pointed in direction and the helicopter went in the pointed direction.

Such stories are common on both sides. Soldiers are human. During a casualty evacuation in 2012, an Army Aviation helicopter from Indian side went across LC to make an approach. As there was no helipad, it had to do a hover evacuation. No intimation of overflight was given to Pakistani post opposite. The Pakistani soldiers got out and got on radio to ask if any problem had occurred. They did not fire at all as the helicopter went well into their airspace to make an approach. As high altitude region and winds were tail winds the direction of approach had to be modified.

The helicopter went back. Took off its doors and came back, again going into Pakistani side and then got the casualty evacuated. No one bothers.

Only on this forum do I see people who have never ever served a single day and neither will, put up pictures with guns and snipers as their display pic and what not and come all 'blazing' as if they are fighting a war!

LC is much more peaceful.

@-xXx- enjoy Tom Clancy!

it is Mig-21 story of ours, the Pakistani version.

How about this one lads? *We are talking about Indian army, not Airforce so you better not confuse it up because there are always different color schemes between the two* Happy Eid!

The story of 'capture' on a 'spying' mission gives me analogies of 'Jack Ryan' of Tom Clancy or 'Timothy Gardner' of Craig Thomas.

A tripod helicopter will land only on a prepared LZ. The specs are a clear area of 25 x 25 meters. So you mean to say, on a spy mission, it landed in such an area? Seriously ......!!!!

@Foxtrot-Bravo I think you will understand what I wrote above.

In all probability, if it is indeed a captured Indian Heli, then the same would have inadvertently landed across. We had one heli flying in across a couple of years back.

Your Mi-17 was preparing to land in Dawar in 2009, that is in Gurez, more than 10 kms as criw flies. It was timely hoisting of flag to prevent it from happening.

Happens in bad weather.

Anyways, give the names of pilots to collate info.
