i seriously think instead of going with kamov we should have ordered indian ones at least in the helicopter division we should not buy any stuff unless it is really best

I was wating for this news, we need urgently 1000+ HUL to fulfil military and civil demand

The HAL LUH is going to be the first Indian aviation product to cross 1000 units produced, I am 100% convinced.

How it is different from ALUH Dhruv? I am confused.

ALH is 5.5 tons AUW and twin engined, LUH is 3 tons AUW and single engined, LUH will replace the Cheetahs and Chetaks of the IA and IAF.

Heard that Russia is charging 2.5 time for MII. If this works out we can go this route. DHRUV model of development seems the best way of MII.
