First it was Named HF-001 Marut.... The First time the Marut Did not take off , its undercarriage retracted , next time it crashed when fixed with GTRE Reheated Engine version.... The second attempt was successful and was conducted on 24 Jun 1961 ... As It was successfully test flown on 24th it was Renamed to HF-24 ...
