India has issued its biggest-ever global tender to procure more than 230 new multi-role maritime helicopters, in an attempt to address the growing shortage of helicopters available for deployment on its warships.

The 21 launches will include the second test flight of India's heaviest rocket—the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle or GSLV Mk.3..

India’s state-run space agency has announced plans to launch 21 rockets in the next four years to bolster the country’s launch capability.
