| Summary / Abstract (Note) | UN peacekeeping missions are increasingly mandated to take on a range of complex tasks. Due to the dynamic, demanding, logistically challenging and time-sensitive nature of these operations, missions have become increasingly dependent on helicopters to effectively implement their mandates. Yet UN peacekeeping missions face a critical shortage of military helicopters. Resolution of the force generation challenges for helicopters requires a multifaceted strategy that addresses deficiencies in overall supply, clarifies administrative and procedural ambiguities, including tasking and command and control, and revisits reimbursement rates for member states. |
