India's Defence Research and Development Organisation has shortlisted two domestic firms for developing an indigenous 20mm aviation gun. This initiative aims to increase indigenous content in the Light Combat Helicopter Prachand and Rudra helicopters. The development is expected to take around two years before production orders are distributed based on cost calculations. Additionally, efforts are ongoing to indigenise the helicopters' other weapon systems, including anti-tank guided missiles.
