Future Verticle Lift Technology

Abstract

This PE conducts air vehicle and mission system component design, fabrication, and evaluation to enable Army Future Vertical Lift. Emphasis is on developing aviation platform and mission system technologies to enhance manned and unmanned air vehicle combat and combat support operations for attack, reconnaissance, air assault, survivability, logistics, and command and control missions. Work in this PE contributes to the Army Science and Technology (S&T) air systems portfolio and is fully coordinated with efforts in PE 0603465A (Future Vertical Lift Advanced Technology Development). The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering S&T focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this PE is performed by the United States Army Futures Command (AFC) and the Army Engineering Research and Development Center (ERDC). All FY20 adjustments align program financial structure to Army Modernization Priorities in support of the National Defense Strategy.
