The deal to procure the indian helicopter is still done yet. But the indian news channels are jumping up and down as though all the helicopters are arriving by next month 😂
Without establishment of adequate production capacities India will enjoy great exports. Next 15 years they will with great difficulty supplies will be made to the Indian DEFENCE FORCES.
Jigs,fixtures,manufacturing processes,software,hardware,are difficult to manufactures as the design aspects are new Time testing,supply chain,dpares,weaponry👍
It’s more or less the same as Mi transport helicopters carrying unguided rockets. It doesn’t carry guided missiles yet. Will still lack accuracy in taking out targets.
Your Analogy is wrong. HAL (Defence Equipment Manufacturer) and the armed forces are two independent entities. They are obviously not the same. It is a big deal because the Indian Armed forces are picky customers who have lot of complex requirements. For a Indian manufacturer to satisfy their needs is a big win and vote of confidence on the product.
This is the first and only Indian flying machine that looks good and purpuseful. The IMRH looks like the older models of the MI17 i.e. it looks like a 1970s design. Indian designers need to think in terms of beauty in form and function - like the F14 Tomcat, F22, Su30/34/35, Rafale, Apache etc. As a new design, the IMRH should look more like the AW101 or the NH90 which are absolutely beautiful flying machines. As it is, the visual impression of the IMRH models is just rubbish.
After many disappointing news of the fifth largest economy scavenging for garbage, leftovers and scraped aircraft from the world. this helicopter deal is indeed a sigh of relief,
@@samarbanerjee9941 some people will never understand constructive criticism😞 As an India I also wish our country becomes the number one economy. But it is shameful that while aspiring to be a super power, our actions don't match our aspirations.
Fight on tibet will require 400 to 500 choppers. Fight for POK will require 300 choppers. Fight for BALUCHISTAN will require another 250 choppers . 1 lac paratroopers will be required for each of these operations.
@@JatinLohiya-t1d Kabini is the core (gas-generator) of GTRE Kaveri engine. As a guide, for each kg of air mass flow, shaft power is about 250 hp.

@@Kanishka-d6w Initial costs are always high. You have to make the production line itself first. Most of the parts and components need their own production line and dedicated supply chains too. You have to find domestic vendors. Or foster a domestic ecosystem through loans and incentives and such if they don't exist at all. Plus they have to do this all while juggling the prices of foreign parts which will fluctuate. While also doing R&D to replace these foreign parts with domestic ones. All the while trying to make some profits. Money for All of what I said above must come from this initial order. So that price is what any company will quote for the first batch order. The Channels take that full amount and divide it by number to get the supposed price of a single platform. Looking at it broadly this initial high cost and time is why most smaller nations opt to just buy foreign models. But for a country like ours who need the platforms in 100s thus makes much more sense. As we can use this newly created ecosystem for all future products. Prices will definitely go down for the next order. Look at the F-35 program for reference.
@@Kanishka-d6w Lets take the case of assembly of 100% foreign parts. Which is not at all what's happening here. Even then the costs lowered are plenty: 1) Lots of money saved in labour costs.

Most of the systems in foreign platforms are useless to us but we pay for them nonetheless. But they lack key features that we do need like high altitude operability. 3) Cost cutting on servicing. We can service it ourselves. We can also do the upgrades ourselves. 4) we can integrate into it whatever armaments/avionics we desire. 5) Creation of a military industrial complex. Which will create jobs and other technological advancements.
@@mathewp3416 India is fiddling with one KAVERI engine for the last 15-20 years which to the best of my knowledge has not been integrated with any platform. Why? We have tendency to exaggerate our tiniest achievements while ignoring what China has achieved in theist 20 years or so. China has its Stealth fighter in the operation since many years. Where are we compare to China? We are manufacturing the shell of Apache by following the design provided by USA company. Do you call this achievement? I have noticed the projects of GOI walking at a snail's pace.

Privatize HAL and increase the salaries of the engineers ... The organisation will excel .... Spend more on R&D and set up world class offices for the staff to work efficiently ... Even today the government run organisations have very shabby offices and employees get paid very low. Time for that shift in mindset
@@jigsaw2281 quantitative advantage goes both ways. Need to train more pilots and put 4times of life at work. But it’s always better to have something our own. Great start.

Very good, let HAL make all of our Helecootors.
It's not purely Made In India. The indigenous contents at present are meager 45% , we can be proud of the contents go upto around 85-90%
Better than 0%
HAL should spend 20% of its revenue in R&D
Good news👍
HAL should develop a heavy attack helicopter too. To replace Apache.
this is mainly developed because apache cant operate in ladakh but prachand can,so its mostly going to be used in ladakh
Jai Hind. HAL makes us proud.
Guys please improve the audio of the guests.

More focus should be given on status of Anti Tank missiles on Prachand. They have not qualified for ATGMs yet.

Why have irritating background music sounds jingoistic
Can the indian helicopter start arriving next month?😂
Now HAL and DRDO should focus on transport helicofter like romeo and chinook
Wing Commander Pillai should not hide his whole face by keeping his Left hand on his mouth. It affects the attenuation process of the sound travel.

I don't understand why there is no picture of the Prachand stacked with ATGMs like comparable Apaches. Will they just use it as a gunship?
Shopkeeper buying groceries from his own shop, how is it such a big deal.
You don't have that depth and education to differentiate a grocery shop and PSUs and it pushes money multiplication in macro economy . Why you speak ?

What a disappointment! I thought is aa programme on Augut aWasteland
Why is this helicopter so costly (almost Rs 160 crore a piece) if this is designed and manufactured in India in an existing government facility?
HAL is making it. Not Sunday bazar
@@thunderbirdrider8740 THAT IS WHY THE COST MUST BE ON LOWER SIDE. UNLESS THEY ARE JUST ASSEMBLING THE PARTS BOUGHT AT MARKET RATES.
