EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Corporal Mark BALLANTYNE RLC, we witness the dynamic interaction between a British Army Squirrel trainer helicopter and a WAH-64 Apache attack helicopter. The image was taken during a two-day live firing exercise at Lulworth Ranges/Bovington Camp in Dorset on November 19,2002. As the Apache unleashes its firepower from its underslung 30mm cannon, the Squirrel trainer helicopter carrying a photographic team fearlessly pursues it. This breathtaking display of aerial prowess showcases the skill and precision of both aircrafts' pilots. The exercise aimed to qualify Army Air Corps Apache pilots from 651 (AHF) Squadron as instructors so that they could pass on their invaluable knowledge to future generations of pilots. It focused on honing core Apache skills necessary for combat scenarios. This photograph not only captures an exhilarating moment but also serves as a testament to the dedication and professionalism exhibited by our armed forces. The Royal Air Force's presence in this joint operation highlights their commitment to maintaining readiness and excellence in military aviation.
