Enhancing Rotary Capability Through Future Vertical Lift Acquisition & Asset Modernization
IDGA's 5th Annual International Military Helicopter Conference will provide a means to discuss the ongoing efforts to meet the next generation of innovative rotary wing aviation assets to bolster air and battlefield overmatch. The US Future Vertical Lift (FVL) program will develop the next generation of military helicopters. Along with continued modernization and maintenance, FVL is driving helicopter capability development on a global scale, ushering in a new age of rotorcraft capability.
The conference will also provide an in-depth viewpoint into the rotary wing aviation capability development needs and efforts of our NATO and Allied Partners. Join us for a senior-level understanding of the modernization and new platform development challenges experienced by our International partners in order to drive future collaborative initiatives for helicopter operations, capabilities, and programs.
