The Golden Arrow Division, in collaboration with the Indian Air Force (IAF), conducted a joint training exercise focused on Special Heliborne Operations (SHBO). The exercise aimed to refine Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) for rapid insertion and deployment of troops during combat scenarios, highlighting the seamless integration and joint capabilities of the Indian Army and IAF.

Special Heliborne Operations are vital to the Indian Army’s tactical prowess, enabling quick troop deployment and enhanced operational flexibility in challenging environments. These operations rely on the use of helicopters for swift aerial insertion, allowing forces to engage effectively in hostile terrain.

The concept of Special Heliborne Operations was first demonstrated with distinction during the 1971 Indo-Pakistani War, particularly in the Battle of Sylhet. The operation, led by Lt. Gen. Sagat Singh and executed by Group Captain Chandan Singh with a small fleet of Mi-4 helicopters, marked the first spontaneous heliborne assault by the Indian Army. This bold maneuver successfully transported an Indian battalion into enemy-held Sylhet town in East Pakistan, showcasing the strategic advantage of SHBOs.
