As per the information given below, the correct answer is option A. In an effort to commence flight operations from the indigenously-designed and built aircraft carrier INS Vikrant, the maiden landing of MH-60R helicopter was undertaken on Tuesday, Navy officials said. “In another milestone for the Indian Navy, MH60R helicopter undertakes maiden landing on the indigenously designed and constructed aircraft carrier, INS Vikrant. A major boost to the Indian Navy’s Anti-Submarine Warfare and Fleet Support capability,” a Navy statement said. The helicopter landing took place days after the aircraft carrier witnessed night landing of MG-29 K fighter jets last week. Giving details of the landing in pitch dark conditions considered to be demanding, officials had said this landing was indicative of Navy’s impetus towards ‘aatmanirbharta’.
