    Solution

    Prime Minister Narendra Modi will dedicate to the nation a Helicopter Factory of Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) in Tumakuru, Karnataka. The Greenfield Helicopter Factory is planned with a vision to become a one-stop solution for all helicopter requirements of the country. Initially, this factory will produce around 30 helicopters per year and can be enhanced to 60 and then 90 per year in a phased manner. The first LUH has been flight tested and is ready for unveiling. It is India’s largest helicopter manufacturing facility and will initially produce Light Utility Helicopters (LUHs). The factory will be augmented to produce other helicopters such as Light Combat Helicopters (LCHs) and Indian Multirole Helicopters (IMRHs). It will also be used for Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul of LCH, LUH, Civil Advanced Light Helicopter (ALH) and IMRH in the future. Potential exports of civil LUH will also be catered to from this factory. About HAL Founded: 22 December 1940                 Headquarters:Bangalore, Karnataka   Chairperson & MD:  R. Madhavan
