The light combat helicopter was designed and built in India specifically for fighting. Hindustan Aeronautics Limited is the company that made it (HAL).
HAL says that the light combat helicopter is the only attack helicopter in the world that can land and take off at an altitude of 5,000 metres (16,400 ft) while carrying a large amount of weapons and fuel, which meets the needs of the Indian Armed Forces.
The helicopter has the necessary speed, manoeuvrability, range, high altitude performance, and ability to fight around the clock and in any weather. It would be a strong platform that the Indian Air Force and Indian Army could use to do their jobs.
