On this Special Report, India Today’s Shivani Sharma and Manjeet Negi report on major boosts to India’s defence capabilities. Shivani Sharma confirms that the 'six Apache helicopters are now with the Indian Army and they are to be deployed on the western border with Pakistan.' The final batch of three choppers has arrived, completing the fleet ordered in 2020. Meanwhile, Manjeet Negi reports from Goa on the Indian Navy commissioning its second squadron of MH-60R Romeo helicopters, verified as INAS 335.
