- hace 7 años
Bell Helicopter has unveiled a new aircraft that could be the shape of future U.S. Army helicopters to come. The aircraft is one of two that will demonstrate new technologies for the ground service's helicopter fleet, scheduled to receive a fleetwide upgrade in the 2030s.
The aircraft, known as the V-280 Valor, was unveiled at the Farnborough Air Show and is Bell Helicopter's entry in the Joint Multi Role helicopter technology demonstrator program. The Valor is most notable for being a tiltrotor airplane that, like the V-22 Osprey, can fly like a helicopter and a conventional aircraft.
