HAL and Safran Helicopter Engines have signed the final contract to co-develop Aravalli, a new 3,500-4,000 shp turboshaft engine that will power India’s upcoming 13-tonne Indian Multi-Role Helicopter and its naval variant. This video breaks down why this is Safran’s first-ever co-development at this engine class, how it builds on decades of HAL-Safran partnership from the Cheetah and Chetak to the Shakti engine, and what it means for India’s push toward self-reliance in aero-engine technology.#HAL #Safran #Aravalli #IMRH #DBMRH #IndianDefence #AtmanirbharBharat #IndiaFrance #HelicopterEngine #DefenceNews2026 #Turboshaft #MakeInIndia #IndianArmedForces #AeroEngine #divyakochar
