Prominent open-source intelligence (OSINT) analyst Damien Symon took to X to publish satellite imagery of China constructing a new heliport near Arunachal ‘Fishtails’ sector, just 20 kilometers from the Indian border.
According to media reports, the heliport is being constructed at Nyingchi Prefecture in the southeastern part of Tibet Autonomous Region. Fish Tail-I and II border the region. There has been frequent patrolling by both Indian and Chinese forces at the Fish Tail-II region.
Reports have suggested that as part of the process of ramping up the infrastructure along the borders, China has constructed over 10 helipads near the Line of Actual Control (LAC). These will help China ensure rapid deployment and logistical support for its troops in the forward region.

China is particularly focusing on the strategically significant Chip Chap sector of Patrol Point 13 and the Hot Springs and Gogra regions.
New Delhi has always said India’s relationship with China cannot be normal unless there is peace in the border areas. The two sides have so far held 21 rounds of Corps Commander-level talks to resolve the standoff.
The Indian Ministry of External Affairs had previously declared that certain crucial positions remained even though most situations involving disengagement had been mutually agreed upon. Security analysts have observed that, as part of a sinister plan for the LAC, China has been unusually slow to remove troops from key locations.
