- The Indian Air Force's Leh base, the challenge from the China and Pakistan two-front threat, protecting India's borders from Chinese aggression and preserving Tibet's Buddhism from Chinese repression is the subject of this documentary. In 'The Himalayan Frontier' Part VII here's a look at Shakti & Shanti (Power & Peace) in Ladakh. We record a day in the life of the Indian Air Force's Air Warriors at the Air Force Station (AFS), Leh in Ladakh which is at the frontline of dealing with the China and Pakistan two-front threat. Continuing our series, a StratNews Global team of Amitabh P. Revi, Rohit Pandita and Karan Marwaha document the IAF Mig-29, Sukhoi-MKI and Rafale fighter jets, the C-17 Globemaster, Il-76 and An-32 transport aircraft and the Cheetals of the 'Siachen Pioneers' 114 Helicopter Unit in their operations at, to and from the Indian Air Force's AFS, Leh. India has ramped up its military posture along the Northern borders after the deadly 2020 Galwan clashes with China's People's Liberation Army (PLA) forces. And the Indian Air Force's AFS Leh plays a significant role.
'The Himalayan Frontier' Part VII
In this episode, we film the Indian Air Force's Mig-29, Su-MKI and Rafale fighter jets, the C-17, Il-76 and An-32 transport aircraft, the IAF and Indian Army Advanced Light Helicopter (ALH) Dhruv & Rudra and sorties conducted by the Cheetal helicopters, speak to the Air Officer Commanding (AOC), the Commanding Officer (CO) of the 114 Helicopter Unit (HU), Mig-29 and Cheetal pilots and the Engineering Officer, 114 HU to document the Indian Air Force's operations in the northern Himalayan frontier along the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China in Eastern and Southern Ladakh and China-occupied Tibet, and in the Siachen Glacier as well as along the Line of Control (LoC) and the Actual Ground Position Line (AGPL) with Pakistan. We also visit the Thiksey Gompa or Monastery modelled on the Potala Palace in Lhasa, Tibet. Priceless Buddhist religious literature, documents, and thangkas at the Gompa have been smuggled out of Tibet to preserve them from Chinese repression.

What phookat defence are they talking about with just 36 Rafaels ???? After 2016 it is now 8 years and not a single Radael is on the cards. What is the real reason for this procastrination which is so uncharacteristic of this Government?????

My Uncle Lt GVP Rao got the MVC in the 1962 sino India conflict at NEFA
He was just 21 yrs old just passed and commissioned from IMA

@srinivasrao369
I had been to NEFA then (now Arunachala Pradesh), at Chaku that was the last point the PLA had come upto. In the thick forest around there were many tomb stones erected for our fallen soldiers (Shaheed). Most of them or may be all were from Madras regiment.
I salute to your Uncle Lt GVP Rao.

Superb documentary. Diplomacy is about having both US and Russian heavy lifyers.
Modi is Magic.
India paid $ 400 Million for 1 C-17.. It was $ 100 million above regular production run of $ 300 Million per plane. Instead of getting a discount, India had to paid a premium of $ 100 Million
They were procured even before Modi played his magic on you.
Holy Shit!!! Your introductions are becoming bigger and bigger....!! So so amazing. I have been following this channel since it had 50k subscribers, and i am so happy to see the evolution in your numbers and the quality of content. Unlike random vloggers, you are experts in this sector.. and its so amazing to watch your video. I havent even watched the full video yet, and just saw the intro and I paused to thank you for such commendable work!! kudos!
@abhay292 thanks a ton for all the kind words. made my day! and believe me it’s been a very, very long one. now will let you unpause and watch the whole episode!!

Love the storytelling too - you covered a Buddhist monastery, which was technically not needed considering the topic, but as a fellow writer, and storyteller myself, i can read between your lines and your brilliance of showcasing the border story@@amitabhrevi. I think Nitin sir is based out of Pune, but If you are based out of Pune too, I would love to meet you in-person. Pls do let me know how can i reach you. :)

Ladakh is Truly Heavenly 😊
you are right @sunnymitra6372
Touch the sky with glory IAF 🇮🇳❤💫✨
Thanks to SNG, Amitabh Revi and the camera crew, for this amazing presentation of the Leh airfield set in mountainous landscape, and the overview of Air Force operations handled there. But this airfield is well more than just a military base, as this video shows.
The visit to the Tibetan Buddhist monastery painted in red, yellow and white and its library of scrolls and 'tangkhas,' as well as the stupa were also fascinating and unique. The life-size cut-out of His Holiness, the 14th Dalai Lama, inside the monastery attests to its significance as a hub of Tibetan Buddhist culture.
Wonderful to meet some crew members of the choppers that are the lifeline for troops deployed in the Siachen glacier and its environs! The azure skies, as well as the opening and closing shots of the sliver-moon in the twilight, with the silhouette of a flying crane, and then an airborne chopper, against this backdrop, certainly added an artistic touch to the video!
thanks @jovianjollity5244 for taking the time out to watch and for your detailed response. very heartening for the whole @stratnewsglobal team
Glimpse of Leh - Ladakh always ignite the spiritual part of life.
Expecting HAL LUH will be deployed in this area in coming years.

I am a new subscriber and have been watching all episodes of ‘The Himalayan Frontier’. This series is wonderfully made and photographed. It is worthy of an award. I’d like to congratulate the entire team of StratNewsGlobal for bringing us such world class content on defence and strategic affairs. They are an eye opener and a straight-forward and educated insight into a world which is relatively less known to civilians. Looking forward to more such series. Keep up the great work. Jai Hind 🇮🇳❤

One of the rare videos where the military might has been presented with a tasteful mix of the local culture.

As a business owner and an Indian I'd be keen to invest in this area if the govt. can come up with an investment strategy for civilians. Just developing army installations will become very costly without developing the tourism potential. Dual use infra development should be the goal

India has demonstrated it's capability by deploying Tibetan armed unit during galwan clash and occupying kailash range.
