Chennai: Lockheed Martin’s MH-60R ASW helicopter fills a critical capability gap for the Indian Navy and can be acquired quickly in a government to government deal. Saying this, vice president, Asia-Pacific, sales and marketing, Christophe A. Nurit added that, “We can add significant value and provide the most expeditious platform for the government of India. We have the MH-60R which is the poster child of the US Navy ASW. This is a product which has been delivered not just to the US Navy but also to the Royal Australian Navy, Royal Danish Navy, and Royal Saudi Navy. Every time a product is delivered, it is on time and on cost and all the expectations of our clients have been met or exceeded. We’ve been in discussion with the government of India for many years. The MH-60R does not have a ‘Strategic Partner’ since this is a program trying to fix the critical capabilities.”
