HAL DHRUV

[FulcrumD]

Thanks for the upload-any chance of link to full vid?? Cool to see Tavor in service- are those SF/Ghatak/or regular Para?

+ Why doen't the Dhruv in the vid have a glass cockpit?

The first Dhruv has a glass cockpit while the second one featured at night ops is a Mark 1 older variant and does not have a glass cockpit.

I thought that was a beautiful picture, a true success of the much maligned DRDO

Ooops! DRDO has nothing to do with the Dhruv! It was developed and manufactured by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL). Germany's Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm (MBB) were contracted in July 1984 to act as a design consultant and collaborative partner for the programme.
