You don't really need a major base of operation.....a helipad and a small hanger with a mechanic will do (one or two choppers)....the flight crew and the soldiers can be rotation duty (few days to few weeks) and can fly surveillance missions (flightcrew) and the soldiers can use down time to hone their skills even more in these heli drop/extraction operations by testing themselves.

I think it's cheaper to have UAV for surveillance, saves fuel, but by the time the enemy is detected and rapid-reaction force is dispached, say maybe 10 mins? The enemy would have already made contact, and that would make it extra difficult for our choppers to distinguish enemy from ally, specially in the dark.
Not too long ago, we read that 2 su-25s were dispatched to intercept an azeri UAV. I wonder where they departed from.....
