The RSAF celebrated 45 years of helicopter operations, marking key milestones from the Alouette III to modern Apache and Chinook helicopters.

On 29 August 2014, the RSAF celebrated 45 years of helicopter operations at Sembawang Air Base, bringing together current and former members of the Helicopter Group. Since the inception of the first operational helicopter squadron in September 1969, the RSAF's helicopters – from the Alouette III and Super Puma to the Apache, Chinook, and Seahawk – have come a long way to play key roles in the full spectrum of the SAF's operations.
