From Ladakh to Nepal flood relief: How IAF mastered relief missions

The Indian Air Force recently delivered relief supplies to Nepal, showcasing its global reach.

This capability has been vital in past operations, including Jammu and Kashmir and East Pakistan.

Recent deployments to Ladakh and the Maldives also highlight its strategic importance.

While the current fleet is modest, future indigenous heavy-lift aircraft are planned.

These missions prove the IAF's well-exercised strategic airlift muscle.
