In yet another accomplishment, the C-130J Super Hercules aircraft touched down at Air Force Station, Car Nicobar on May 28, 2012, on its maiden flight to the island airbase.
After almost six hours flight from Air Force Station Hindan, Group Captain Tejbir Singh, Commanding Officer of the Hercules Squadron accomplished the task of landing at Car Nicobar Airbase. The crew was received by the Chief Operations Officer Wing Commander Sanjay M. Nijai. The Chief Staff Officer CSO (Ops) HQ Andaman & Nicobar Command, Air Commodore T.K. Sinha was also present on the occasion. For some, it was just yet another landing, in fact it marked a big leap for the Indian Air Force in projecting its strategic reach even at this remote and farflung island base of the Indian Air Force.
C-130J is one of the latest warbird with state-of-the-art avionics and defensive suites. This aircraft has the ability to execute special operations which shall involve not only the Air Force elements but also Army and Naval forces to achieve the assigned task by displaying a great synergy between them. This also showcases our ability and operational infrastructure to induct variety of forces and technology. This endorses the vision of our planners to induct this magnificent machine into tech-savvy Indian Air Force. It is indeed a proud and historic moment which will go down the annals of Indian Air Force’s only island base rightfully known as ‘Commendable Carnic’.
