Norway’s Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace is offering its Penguin littoral anti-ship missile for the Indian Navy’s bid to purchase 16 multimission maritime helicopters. Among other helicopters, the missile is certified on the Eurocopter-Agusta-Fokker NH90 and the Lockheed-Sikorsky MH-60R that are contenders in the Navy’s multi-role helicopter (MRH) competition.
Why buy 70's technology when newer version are available since 2007?
Hi,
"WISH U ALL HAPPY & PROSPEROUS DIWALI".
Both Lockheed-Sikorsky MH-60R & Eurocopter-Agusta-Fokker NH90 helicopter are proven for Navy's multi-role helicopter
(MRH)competition.
I thing Indian Navy needs at least 40(MRH) for its new acquisition of Kolkota-Class, Shivalik-class and replace it with Old Sea King helicopter.
And Navy should go for license production for more then 100 for future spare problem.
