The EADS North America AAS-72X provides powerful twin-engine performance and survivability, particularly in the demanding high/hot operating environments called for by today’s Army requirements.Â
Developed from a family of proven multi-mission helicopters, it is being employed worldwide in armed reconnaissance, MEDEVAC, law enforcement and other utility missions. The AAS-72X will leverage the UH-72A Lakota, which is being fielded in increasingly large numbers for the U.S. Army’s Light Utility Helicopter mission.
The AAS-72X modern design and modular weapons systems architecture ensures the lowest life cycle costs, maintainability and maximum operational reliability, resulting in high operational readiness rates to meet changing mission requirements over time.
