MH-XX Development
Abstract
The MH-XX project directs Naval Aviation developmental activities in support of the replacement of the Navy H-60 series helicopters, multi-mission medium lift helicopter capability, in the 2028 timeframe. These aircraft will be used extensively to protect Joint assets from airborne, surface, and sub-surface threats. Other supported mission areas will include Combat Search and Rescue, Naval Special Warfare, Humanitarian Assistance/Disaster Relief, Logistics, and Medical Evacuation. Specific developmental activities will include: capability requirements definition supporting Initial Capabilities Document (ICD) approval; support to the Joint Multi-Role Technology Demonstrator (JMR TD) to explore key maritime enablers including Future Airborne Capability Environment (FACE), mission system interoperability, and shipboard compatibility; and affordability studies. These activities will result in completion of all pre-system acquisition documentation required for a Material Development Decision in first quarter FY 2017. These efforts will enable timely development of a system which provides best value to the Joint Warfighter and Naval Aviation while maintaining effective and efficient war fighting capability in support of the Navy's 30-year Aviation Plan.
