Requirement: Cost Effective Development of New Army Aviation Systems.

Abstract

The paper investigates techniques that have been taken to improve the Army RDTE cycle through study of refinements to the requirements documentation process, selection of Project Manager criteria, and evaluation of the Cheyenne/Advanced Attack Helicopter and Heavy Lift Helicopter program. The conclusions are that improvements have been implemented that will provide for more cost-effective development and acquisition of new weapons systems for the Army in today's environment of austere defense funding.
