The new compromise NDAA bill to fund the United States military through FY 2025 has been released. On page 17, the bill includes a provision for the Army to submit a plan for providing five types of aircraft (the Apache, Chinnock, Gray Eagle, Black Hawk, and FLRAA/V-280 Valor) to the Army National Guard not later than March 31, 2025 (an agreement with the Air Force prohibits the Army from acquiring tactical fixed-wing aircraft). The US Army boasts the largest rotary-wing fleet in the world and its procurement spending on aviation rivals that of ‘weapons and tracked combat vehicles.’
