Flying past on the 89th Air Force Day at Hindon AFS, this Chinook of 126 HF âFeatherweightsâ easily carries an underslung M777A2 155mm Ultra-Light Howitzer (ULH) of the Indian Army that weighs 4200 kg and can fire the M982 Excalibur PGM artillery shell. Inducted on 25 March 2019 at Chandigarh, this heavy-lift, multi-mission helicopter has already proved its worth in Indiaâs Himalayan regions.
