The Defence Ministry has been focusing on enhancing infrastructure at almost all airfields along the LAC including the Advanced Landing Grounds (ALGs) as per operational requirements. IAF’s IL-76 achieves world-record 13,600-foot landing at Nyoma, boosting Ladakh ALGs and strategic airlift near the LAC. The feat showcases the aircraft's operational strength and the crew's precision, achieved at a strategically important airbase in the Himalayas.
