Last Updated 17 February 2015, 14:40 IST

The Americans had a big presence at the last Aero India. This time, while the war machines will be there to impress one and all, their open sky jumping team from the US Special Forces will venture into the aerial display territory. 

Sky divers, right from the Akash Ganga days, have enthralled viewers at the Aero India. One of the most visually stimulating aero sports, skydiving has emerged as a big attraction for adventure buffs as well. 

The United States Army Special Forces, known as the Green Berets because of their distinctive service headgear, are a special operations force tasked with five primary missions: unconventional warfare (the original and most important mission of Special Forces), foreign internal defense, special reconnaissance, direct action, and counter-terrorism.
