Cheetah on the lawns of the Royal Calcutta Turf Club in the evening after Vijay Diwas Military Tattoo 2024 with the Victoria Memorial and The 42, Kolkata's tallest building in the background. The event commemorates India's decisive victory over Pakistan on 16 Dec 1971 that created Bangladesh. It saw the surrender of 93,000 Pakistani personnel, the largest POW capture since World War II. The Cheetah has been used for liaison, observation, CASEVAC, logistics and has been a lifeline for high-altitude operations.
