In the past decade, new helicopter designs have been proposed to overcome the speed limitations typical of traditional rotorcrafts, caused by dissymmetry of lift.

On this regard, the US Army Future Vertical Lift (FVL) programme is effectively leading the global drive to overcome these technological limitations.

The FVL programme primarily aims at simplifying and standardising the US rotary-wing fleets across the US Army, US Navy, and US Marine Corps – about 6,600 platforms. Many of these legacy fleets are very mature and, like their fixed-wing counterparts, have been heavily used in recent conflicts, consuming their flight hours and fatigue life at a high rate.
