Military innovation and savings: Go commercial
DoD uses FAR Part 12 acquisitions to save hundreds of millions of dollars in “of a type” systems like civil landing systems with applicability to military aircraft.

Overmatch is fleeting and while traditional acquisitions can’t always keep up with new threats, a different and approved practice can.
There are many critical connections being made across the FVL ecosystem that will also serve to modernize the current fleet.
IR countermeasures including missile-blinding lasers need to cover 360 degrees around a platform like Future Vertical Lift, because any gap is a vulnerability.
For Future Vertical Lift, the Army wants new and innovative technology that transforms their platforms into advanced weapons systems. One such technology is Raytheon Technologies’ revolutionary RAIVEN Turret 1000, first in a new family of EO/IR systems.
