Night Vision Goggles Aid Air Force Pilots in Sudan Evacuation
TL;DR
The Indian Air Force conducted a daring night operation by landing a C-130J Hercules transport aircraft on an unprepared runway in Sudan to rescue 121 personnel. The pilots used Night Vision Googles (NVGs) and Electro-Optical/Infra-Red sensors to ensure a flawless landing and take-off. The operation is part of the ongoing rescue mission to evacuate stranded Indians in Sudan due to the clashes between the country's army and the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces (RSF).
