The United States Government has started sending 10 TH-57 Sea Ranger helicopters to the Sri Lanka Air Force. The Sri Lankan Embassy in Washington D.C. announced yesterday that these helicopters, which are a donation, have left the U.S. for Sri Lanka. This transfer is part of a cooperation program between the two countries and will boost the SLAF's abilities in training, surveillance, and operational support. The TH-57 Sea Ranger is a military type of the Bell 206B-3 Jet Ranger and has been used by the United States Navy and other U.S. services since 1968. U.S. officials stated that this transfer marks an important step in defense cooperation between the U.S. and Sri Lanka, enhancing regional security, disaster response, and humanitarian efforts.
