Future Vertical Lift Will Revolutionize U.S. Army Combat Aviation
This piece was originally published in Aviation Week on March 4. Reprinted here with permission.
The Army’s in-service RQ-7 Shadow unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) – a fixed-wing UAV that is currently used in conjunction with the AH-64 Apache in support of Army operations – is also being replaced with a system capable of vertical takeoff and landing.

The fourth priority – known as the Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) – will be the digital operating standard on which these aircraft operate, and will ensure interoperability with the Army’s in-service Apaches, Black Hawks and CH-47 Chinooks that will operate alongside the new rotorcraft until they retire from service. This is a government/ industry-wide standard on which mission equipment for FVL will operate.
To demonstrate the numerous technologies that it could offer for FVL, Elbit America has developed a flying testbed that carries all of the various elements that can be used for flight testing.

The Elbit America Vertical Lift Test Bed (VLTB) is a modified Airbus AS355 helicopter that can be configured to integrate the variety of avionics, sensors, antennas, and cockpit systems for current and future rotorcraft.

From its home in Fort Worth, where Elbit America’s systems integration lab is also based, the VLTB carried out some initial flight tests in March 2020, and resumed them once again in October. It has embarked on an ambitious flight campaign, demonstrating at customer sites including the U.S. Army Aviation Center of Excellence at Fort Rucker in Alabama in October 2020.
Digital Backbone

So as to deliver a family of common elements across the FVL family of systems, as well as to ensure that the incoming systems are interoperable with incumbent capabilities, a common digital backbone is required.

The Army has therefore initiated the development of an Aviation Mission Common Server (AMCS), a program that the service says will be the center of the future Common Digital Backbone of FVL, and will be a key enabler for multi-domain operations for Army aviation in the future.

AMCS is a capability upgrade and replacement for the current Army IDM-401 modem system, and will be a flexible open systems architecture and distributed processing resource that will perform non-flight critical computing tasks, data processing, radio and communications management, and graphics generation functions.

It will use MOSA concepts, with AMCS being the hardware element of the digital infrastructure that will essentially power FVL data that is being delivered to pilots and operators.
