HAL Chetak (Alouette III)

The Chetak has two seat side-by-side seating in cockpit. Main cabin can carry up to four passengers. A bit larger and more refined than the Cheetah, with a fully faired fuselage structure.

Primarily in service in the training and light transport roles. The HAL Chetak is scheduled to be replaced by HAL's Advanced Light Helicopter. An option remains to re-engine the HAL Chetak with the Turbomeca TM 333-2B engine.
