The sense of discipline, honour and prestige associated with soldiers, coupled with the opportunities for development, growth, travel and adventure, while serving the nation, are some of the attractions to youth for a career in the Armed Forces.

An initial trigger and inspiration for the youth – Armed forces

Many a times it is the bases of Armed Forces which act as the initial trigger or inspiration for the youth to join the Armed Forces and serve the nation. In the case of the Sulur Air Force Station Coimbatore has always been such a source of inspiration. Located on the eastern part of the city on the way to Palladam, the Sulur Air Force Station has a long history behind it.

The Royal Indian Navy base

You may be surprised to know that it had also served as a Royal Navy and Indian Navy base. The base was in fact established way back in 1940. It was the base of the Royal Navy of the Britishers who were then ruling our country. HMS Vairi, as it was called then, used to function as a repair hub for aircraft during World War II.

The Indian Royal Air Force base

Subsequently, the Indian Royal Air Force base was established here in 1943 before it was shifted to Cochin. After our country’s independence, INS Hansa, a base of the Indian Navy was established in Sulur. The INS Hansa was later on shifted to Dabolim in Goa. It was after that it became a
base of the Indian Air Force, setting the career of many to fly high.
