Rotary Wing Apron Opens

Shindand Air Base increased its capacity recently when officials opened a new rotary wing apron with a goal of increasing capability to stage rotary wing aircraft. The apron, approximately 112,000 meters in size, has the ability to park 18 UH-60 Blackhawks, 14 CH-47 Chinooks and 10 AH-64 Apache helicopters. The apron will be used as a staging and servicing area for units belonging to Task Force Spearhead which also operate out of Shindand. (U.S. Air Force courtesy graphic)
