EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intensity and power of the Combined Arms Manoeuvre Demonstration held by the British Army in October 2016. In this particular image, an Apache AH1D Attack Helicopter soars through the sky, providing crucial support to the troops on the ground during their movement exercise at Knighton Down, Salisbury Plain Training Area. The purpose of this demonstration was to showcase the capabilities of an Armoured Infantry Battlegroup within a Reaction Force Division context as part of the Vanguard Armoured Infantry Brigade. The event featured not only static stands but also two dynamic demonstrations. The first showcased a blank firing manoeuvre that demonstrated minefield crossing and a hasty attack. The second demonstration involved live firepower, with an enemy counter attack on a defensive position. As Mr Richard King ADSL MMC skillfully captured this momentous occasion, we are able to witness firsthand how these brave soldiers train and prepare for combat situations. The Apache AH1D Attack Helicopter symbolizes both strength and precision as it carries out its mission alongside other regiments from the Army Air Corps. This remarkable photo serves as a testament to our armed forces' dedication to training and readiness while highlighting their state-of-the-art equipment. It is a reminder of their unwavering commitment to protecting our nation's security and defending our freedoms.
