Wow. Great news yar. . Waiting for its pics.
 
Wow this is such fantastic news :yahoo:

Can't wait to see the beauty flying.. any Bangloreans lucky enough today to catch a glimpse of the bird???

Good Job HAL.. keep it up :tup::tup::tup:
 
Great news. I guess people were waiting desperately for this news.

Its India's first dedicated Combat Helicopter. Looking at the history, I expect some international orders for it.

A great step forward to becoming arms producer and exporter.
 
The LCH is a derivative of the HAL Dhruv, which has already been inducted into the Indian armed forces. Using a successful and proven helicopter as the base platform is expected to conserve the project costs for the LCH, which is currently pegged at INR 3.76 Billion.

What is really astounding is that the cost of designing an attack chopper is pegged at $ 85 million.. A new car model design by a ford or GM takes more money

The Ardiden features a simple and modular design with 3 modules for easy maintenance: a reduction / accessory gearbox module, a gas generator module and a power turbine module.

The Ardiden has a TBO (Time Between Overhaul) ranging from 3,000 to 6,000 hours.

EASA certified start 2009, the Ardiden 1H1, christened "Shakti", powers the Dhruv twin-engine helicopter (formerly called ALH - Advanced Light Helicopter) built by HAL (Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd.) of India.

The Dhruv, re-engined with the Ardiden 1H1, made its maiden flight on January 12th 2009, in HAL’s helicopter division, Bangalore, India.
