HAL Light Combat Helicopter (LCH) TD-3

The Light Combat Helicopter (LCH) is developed by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL). Indian Army and Indian Airforce are its primary users. It is a multirole combat helicopter manufactured specially for high altitude operations.

Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) successfully conducted the maiden test flight of the third technology demonstrator (TD-3) of the Light Combat Helicopter (LCH) on 12 November 2014.

HAL has already developed two prototypes of the LCH - the Technology Demonstrator (TD1) and the TD2.

“Escorted by a Dhruv helicopter, the entire flight was flawless. It will be an effective weapon platform to deliver precision strikes at high altitude and we are confident it will meet the requirements of the IAF”, says HAL Chairman Dr. R.K. Tyagi. “We are making all efforts to achieve IOC by September next year”, he adds.
