The Indian Air Force (IAF) introduced on Oct. 3 its first batch of domestically built light combat helicopters (LCH) that are capable of destroying enemy air defenses.
Indian Defense Minister Rajnath Singh, who attended the induction ceremony at the IAF’s Jodhpur base in Rajasthan, India, said the “Prachand” LCH will serve as “a big boost to IAF’s combat prowess.”
