LCH Prachand to Get ATGMs in Two Years, Followed by Rudra WSI
The Indian Army’s attack helicopter fleet will see significant upgrades with the indigenous Light Combat Helicopter (LCH) Prachand set to receive Anti-Tank Guided Missiles (ATGMs) within two years, enhancing its combat capabilities against armored targets. Additionally, the Rudra Weapon System Integrated (WSI) will also adopt these missile systems, benefiting from shared avionics with the LCH. The Army is exploring the Manned-Unmanned Teaming (MUM-T) concept, allowing pilots to control loitering munitions, thereby improving situational awareness and strike precision. These advancements underscore India’s commitment to modernizing its defense capabilities and achieving self-reliance in military technology.
