Other Helicopter Development
Abstract
This Program Element includes funding for the development support for improvements to current systems for CH/MH-53, MH-60 development, VH-3/VH-60, and new development of Future Vertical Lift (FVL) capability. The H-53 is the premier heavy lift helicopter for the Marine Corps and the only operational airborne mine sweeping platform for the Navy. H-53 RDT&E efforts focus on trade studies and risk reduction measures to identify candidate survivability, safety, avionics, cargo handling, cockpit and other airframe specific improvements to extend the service life. The MH-60S Helicopter has three primary mission areas; Combat Support, Armed Helo which includes the Fast Attack Craft/Fast Inshore Attack Craft (FAC/FIAC) threat response capabilities and Airborne Mine Countermeasures. The VH-3/VH-60 is required to provide safe and timely transportation for the President and Vice President of the United States, heads of state and others as directed by the White House Military Office. Future Vertical Lift (FVL) is a Joint Department initiative to address vertical lift capability requirements and determine feasible and affordable solutions in support of the Joint Warfighter.
