The MH60 Romeo is manufactured by Lockheed Martin. It is considered one of the most advanced anti-submarine helicopters in the world. It is an all-weather helicopter and is designed to support multiple missions. The chopper landed for the first time on INS Kolkata, a homemade destroyer, earlier this month. In September last year, the homemade INS Vikrant was commissioned in the Indian Navy. It was built at a cost of Rs 20,000 crore.
