EADS prepares for first flight of the initial technical demonstration aircraft
EADS North America recently announced that its Armed Aerial Scout 72X (AAS-72X) industry team is preparing for the first flight of one of three company funded technical demonstration aircraft (TDA).
The EADS North America-led industry team, comprised of Lockheed Martin, Eurocopter and American Eurocopter, is developing three AAS-72X aircraft to demonstrate the total capability of the aircraft with a fully integrated mission equipment package (MEP). The initial flight of the first demonstrator aircraft is scheduled to occur in December.
“First flight is a key milestone that moves us down the technical path to demonstrating the capabilities of the aircraft and reflects our commitment to our Army customer and this important warfighting requirement,” said Sean O’Keefe, CEO of EADS North America.
The AAS-72X combines twin-engine safety, high and hot operating performance and a large cabin for true multi-role capability. The AAS-72X is derived from the same family of aircraft as the UH-72A Lakota light utility helicopter, offering a low-risk evolution of the US Army’s newest rotary-wing aircraft.
