The Philippines has expressed interest in India’s Advanced Light Helicopter
(ALH). This comes after the successful delivery of the BrahMos supersonic
cruise missile to the Philippines.
During the docking of three Indian Navy warships in Manila, a delegation from
the Philippine Navy, Coast Guard, and Department of Defence interacted with
the crew of the indigenous ALH onboard INS Shakti to understand its
capabilities.

The ALH, which has been a major success story for Hindustan Aeronautics
Limited (HAL), is now available in an armed variant (MK-4). The Philippines’
potential acquisition of these helicopters would enhance its combat capability
and strengthen bilateral defence ties with India.
If this deal goes through, the Philippines will become the first country to buy the ALH MK-III. Exciting times for defence cooperation.
