Aviation Advanced Technology
Abstract
This Program Element (PE) matures and demonstrates manned and unmanned air vehicle technologies to enable Army aviation modernization. Within this PE, aviation technologies are advanced and integrated into realistic and robust demonstrations. Project 313 matures, demonstrates and integrates enabling component, subsystems and systems in the following areas: rotors and, structures. Project 436 matures, integrates and demonstrates air launched weapons systems, mission equipment packages to enable control of unmanned systems and advanced teaming capabilities. Project 447 matures and demonstrates affordable and efficient engines and drive trains. Work in this PE contributes to the Army Science and Technology (S&T) Air Systems portfolio and is related to and fully coordinated with PE 0602211A (Aviation Technology), PE 0603313A (Missile and Rocket Advanced Technology), PE 0603710A (Night Vision Advanced technology), and PE 0603270A (Electronic Warfare Technology). 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 U.S. Army Futures Command (AFC). FY 2020 realignments are due to financial restructuring in support of the Army Modernization Priorities.
