Last year, the Indian Army and the Indian Air Force (IAF) had conducted two successful tests of the HELINA missile within a period of 24 hours. The HELINA missile was tested by launching it from the newly-acquired Light Combat Helicopter (LCH). The HELINA missile was tested at a higher altitude and range.
Earlier a week ago, the Indian Army had successfully carried out the inaugural firing of 70mm rocket and 20mm turret guns of light combat helicopter (LCH) Prachand.
