    HAL Prachand - Light Combat Helicopter (LCH)

    This is a great machine. We need to work on cost cutting and adding new features is key to make it a standard chopper across the world for this category. In terms of payload and performance, it can easily surpass Chinese Z10 like medium category chopper. Even 1200 KN engine is undertrial...

    HAL Prachand - Light Combat Helicopter (LCH)

    I think that Tejas MK1 is a compulsion. Had MWF been ready in time, IAF would have got a next level of capability like air raid, deep penetration strike etc at a fractionally higher cost. Our issue is that nothing comes in time. Had MWF been ready by 2025, we would not be thinking to buy...

    This will add a lot more capability particularly when used in Himalayas as an engine of ALH, Rudra and LCH. This can power up to 10 ton class Choppers. If power is further boosted, It can be used in heavy choppers as well.

    This is a great engine. 1200 KW is around 1600 SHP which a great power. Shitty Chinese Z 10weighs more than Double the weight of LCH yet has an engine which has a lesser power than the engine of LCH which translate into T/W ratio less than half of LCH.

    HAL Prachand - Light Combat Helicopter (LCH)

    LCH and ALH are all set to become more powerful with 1200 KM HTSE engine. This is a bloody 33% additional power from 1200 HP to 1200 KW. There is no engine suitable for high altitude than ALH family chopper. This additional power will provide many more configuration options.

    Chinkis are idiots. When they did not have missile technology, they made missiles out of their rockets weighing more that 150 tons which were logistics nightmare. They made Z 10 with russian help but couldn't make a suitable engine. Simulation study revealed that Z 10 can not carry more that 500...

    Climb rate of LCH is so high that a ceiling on the same is put to control it to prevent Air frame to be damaged.

    HAL Prachand - Light Combat Helicopter (LCH)

    Z 10 is a sh**. It can not carry 500 kG above the height of 10000 feet. It weighs more than double the weight of LCH yet has a lower power engine. Its power to weight ratio is less than half of LCH. So compare Turkish and Indian choppers only. Chinese one is ruled out. It can not fly in Himalaya.
