By India Today Science Desk: The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on Sunday successfully demonstrated the landing of its under development Reusable Launch Vehicle. This brings India one step closer to the dream of its own space plane.
The spacecraft took off underslung by a Chinook helicopter from the Aeronautical Test Range (ATR), Chitradurga, Karnataka in the early hours of April 2. It was raised to an altitude of 4.6 kilometers before being dropped mid-air.
Watch ISRO’s RLV landing from air
RLV performed approach and landing maneuvers using the Integrated navigation, guidance & control system and completed an autonomous landing on the ATR air strip at 7:40 am.

“The autonomous landing was carried out under the exact conditions of a Space Re-entry vehicle's landing —high speed, unmanned, precise landing from the same return path— as if the vehicle arrives from space,” ISRO said.
RLV is Isro's attempt at developing essential technologies for a fully reusable launch vehicle to enable low-cost access to space. The Indian space agency has established itself as a cost-effective launch service provider in the billion-dollar satellite launch market and the new system will further strengthen its position.
RLV's configuration is the same as that of an aircraft and combines the complexity of both launch vehicles and aircraft.
