An Indian Air Force (IAF) Apache helicopter was forced to make an emergency landing in a field in Punjab's Nangalpur area today due to an undisclosed technical issue. Both the pilot and co-pilot are reported safe, with no damage to the sophisticated attack helicopter. This marks the second such incident involving an IAF Apache in a week, following a "precautionary landing" in Uttar Pradesh's Saharanpur recently. Military aviation experts note that while such incidents are part of standard safety protocols, repeated occurrences warrant thorough examination.
