ADV ROTARYWING VEH TECH

Abstract

This project matures and demonstrates systems/subsystems for manned/unmanned rotorcraft that provide, improved survivability, greater performance and reduced operational costs and required maintenance. Systems demonstrated include rotors, drivetrains, robust airframe structures and integrated threat protection systems. The cited work is consistent with the Director, Defense Research and Engineering Strategic Plan, the Army Modernization Strategy, and the Army Science and Technology Master Plan. Work in this project is performed by the Aviation Applied Technology Directorate of the Aviation and Missile Research, Development, and Engineering Center (AMRDEC), Fort Eustis, VA., and the System Simulation Development Directorate, AMRDEC, Redstone Arsenal, AL. Work in this project is coordinated with Program Manager ? Aircraft Survivability Equipment (PM-ASE).
