Future Vertical Lift
Abstract
The Future Vertical Lift (FVL) Project's funding provides for the development of a Future Long Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA) Capability Set Three weapon system within the FVL family of systems. FLRAA will conduct air assault, urban assault/security, maritime interdiction, medical evacuation, humanitarian assistance/disaster relief, tactical resupply, direct action, non combatant evacuation operation, and combat search and rescue operations in support of the Army, including Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) and the Joint Force, in a contested, near peer threat environment. The FLRAA weapon system will retain the Army's ability to project combat power with significantly increased range, speed, mobility, and payload over current Army and USSOCOM aircraft. FLRAA achieved a Materiel Development Decision approval in October 2016 and the Office of Secretary of Defense granted a sufficiency determination of the Analysis of Alternatives (AoA) in July 2019. Fiscal Year (FY) 2019 funded completion of the AoA, continued to support initiation of program documentation, and funded establishment of an FVL Architecture Risk Reduction effort in support of Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) for both FLRAA and the Future Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft. FY 2020 funding will support continuation of the FVL Architecture Risk Reduction effort; support life cycle affordability efforts; initiate planning and proposal evaluations of the Competitive Demonstration Risk Reduction efforts; and support the completion of key program documents to include the Program Strategy, Weapon System Specification, Systems Engineering Plan, Life Cycle Sustainment Plan (LCSP) and Contract Requirements Package (CRP). FY 2021 funding supports the continued execution of the Competitive Demonstration Risk Reduction and MOSA efforts, development of the CRP, and the initiation of Source Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB).
