Firepower: Defending India | Charging Ahead | Episode 2 | Full Episode

In Charging Ahead, 'Firepower: Defending India' takes you inside high risk operations where speed, precision and coordination decide the outcome of a mission. Watch Para Commandos execute a helicopter insertion as they slither down ropes into hostile territory and are later extracted mid air, hanging hundreds of feet above the ground. From air to water, witness tanks and Infantry Combat Vehicles smash through river obstacles. See tonnes of armoured steel hit the water and in a stunning demonstration of engineering brilliance, watch the Sarath Infantry Combat Vehicle float and move forward without breaking formation. The episode also introduces one of the Army’s most formidable machines, the Mine Trawler. Built to clear deadly minefields, it pushes ahead where no other vehicle can, forging safe paths under extreme threat. The finale showcases the ingenuity of the Indian Army Engineers as they construct a floating pontoon bridge across a 200 metre wide river in under five hours, racing against time and winning.
