Abstract

The VH-92A is the replacement helicopter for the VH-3D and the VH-60N, the aircraft currently used by Marine Helicopter Squadron One (HMX-1) to transport the President, Vice President, and other distinguished officials as directed by the White House Military Office. The VH-3D and VH-60N are approaching the end of their service lives. Funding for the VH-92A program supports Engineering and Manufacturing Development Phase activities, including: integration of systems; production, qualification, and support of test articles; development of logistics products; and demonstration of system integration, interoperability, safety, utility, and improvements/upgrades. JUSTIFICATION FOR BUDGET ACTIVITY: This program is funded under SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT AND DEMONSTRATION because it includes those projects that have passed Milestone B approval and are conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirement prior to full-rate production decision.
