7 Upcoming US Military Helicopters 

the invictus definitely took inspiration from the Comanche helo, tell me im wrong

The MD-969, AVX, and THE INVICTUS look total beast mode.

Yes indeed. Awesome US Helicopter technology.

DONT GET ME WRONG - ALL OF THE HELOS HERE ARE AWESOME - I came here to review all the Future Vertical Lift entries after being initially disappointed that Bell's V280 Valor beat out the Sikorsky Defiant X , I have a strong preference for Coaxial Rotors, and although Tilt-Rotors are cool , and very futuristic, it's hard for many to move past the many horrific incidents the Osprey suffered. Like someone else mentioned here, the DoD likes to keep many of the big players in business and will often spread contracts out even if they aren't technically the best design in order to keep the factories flowing and competition healthy. Here's the bottom line ; I think the V-280 valor is a better replacement for the UH-60 BlackHawk, I think it's a great troop and cargo transporter, can get troops quickly in and safely IN & OUT of the fight. I think the Raider X is a better option for the attack helicopter. The invictus has a few problems I don't like, first of all I HATE ASYMMETRICAL Designs ( The traditional Single rotor and Tail rotor for Anti-Torque ) The tail rotor is THE ACHILLES HEEL of many traditional heli designs, they are easily destroyed even by small arms fire, and even a nick in the tail rotor induces unctrollable torque + certain DEATH. The coaxial Rotor is one of the greatest inventions ever, the Ka-50 Blackshark can have it's entire Tail boom blown off and still get home safely. The invictus is small and stealthy, which is good in some situations, but I think the Raider X can carry MORE weapons, has the option of small crew or cargo transport which the invictus does not, and has greater speed and maneuverability. I think for most situations the Raider X is the superior design for ATTACK platforms. I hope it wins , and It will be AMAZING to hopefully see both the V280 and the Raider X in the field , and maybe even War movies.

Finally the Invictus gets another mention.

While they all may be under development doesn't necessarily mean they all will be fielded.

So the Valor gets no mention which may very well beat out the defiant?

Love this new latest up2dated technology amaze me wow🤭👍.

Usa 🇺🇸 💖❤🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲💯

December 2022: *Coming in like a wrecking ball* The Bell v 280 valor, chosen by US Army

Bell 360 Invictus looks a lot like the Comanche that got shelved.

These are some exotic and unconventional helicopters.

The Comanche was a good one….. but…. But…..

WOW THESE DESIGNS GOT THE FUTURIST LOOK FOR SURE

Can't wait to fly them in future Battlefield Multiplayer games

long range and high speeds... the lack of range of helicopters is actually the main reason why the V22 exists. operation eagle claw.

USA makes the best helicopters

Amazing work I wanna goin your amazing company

Invictus looks fantastic

The SB1 Defiant lost out to the Bell 280 Valor. And you're using very outdated renderings for the Bell 360 Invictus. Bell eliminated the ducted tail rotor a couple of years ago.

It may be quick and nimble, but will it go crazy when it hears a cymbal?

JOHN, I'M TRYING TO GET A BUS OUT OF REDONDO BEACH, I'LL BE THEIR WHEN I GET THERE, OK, ETC

What about the v-280?

LOL!!! This aged well!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Coaxial? Kamov one love

270 knots in A Heli...That's fast

Excellent intonation , pretty much all your videos I generally hear at least 2 times as such 1st time I can't concentrate on the contents rather I concentrate on your intonation yet your video wants to be heard time & again . Thanks

Raider all the way.

I actually prefer the one and only helicopter on this list which just went into active service and that is the first one. Just something very cool about it.

airwolf is the best

Infantry's best friend, helicopters are the basis of a strong advancing conquering special forces.

°,

Raider all the way

What`s the difference between the Raider at 1:50 min. and the Defiant at 5:40 min. ?

How about the Valor???

Three more Tank Head one missile two machine power gun

The AVX looks like a Star Wars: Attack Of The Clones ship.

They’re all going to be in production ?

The first helicopter I'm so interested in oh it gets away with not having any rear propeller?? In the past the only way to do this is to have twin propellers on the top spinning opposite directions.

What will be the possible guns attached to these aircrafts and how many ammo will be stored?

Any idea when these will be available for selection in flight school?

Great vid 👍 Quite unique accent But I really like it

Wow ! Nice research but still classified stuff not released.... 🤫

Why do I get the feeling that we are heading towards the Republic Gunship look from clone wars?

So in other words Commanche is coming back but better looking :-) :-)

v 280 valor is missing which is the actually only proven helicopter

It's going to be the Defiant or the Raider. Nothing can compete with their capacity or speed. I think the Defiant is a better choice because it can land in narrow streets, which also makes it better for carrier operations. It also can be converted into an attack helicopter with few modifications compared to the Raider. It's just a better helicopter.

what do need for those fast helos when they already have the ospreys

Several of these designs are taking from the AH-56 Cheyenne of 67.

Sikorsky yang bisa dibeli Indonesia tentu perusahaan As tsb harus bisa menawarkan dan meyakinkan Indonesia untuk membelinya

I really wish we could get people that would really do more research on the various platforms they are showing. Or maybe learn better english!

not because each one is very expensive for mass production.😢

feel like most scouting will be done by drones anyways , so helicopter for scouting purpose sounds dated

You people need to wake up and realize there is another principle player in the next major helicopter program and that is the V-280 Valor. What you need to do is realize that if the V-280 is finalized as the winner your videos will be totally Junk for ignoring a candidate. The V-280 can be thought of as the successor to the V-22 osprey as well as its design solves many of the issues. It wont replace the V-22 but future system designs may use it instead of the V-22. I will admit you have disclosed more helicopter variations than I was aware of. Just note that some sources have reported that the V-280 has already won and the competition is crying fowl.

Md969 NICE

What's life expectancy in combat? 3-5 minutes?

So you're sayin' that 1st aircraft can fly 207mph?!?! 🤔🧐

What about DD-21 Program

They are starting to look like ka 52s. Are double rotary propellers the ultimate form for military helicopters?

Alien technology dude,,

All used to protect our liberties and freedom.....mKay.....

I could've sworn there was a tilt-rotor under testing, too... One of the most difficult things to learn in English is when or when not to add a "s" at the end of a word. Whoever programmed the Speechelo for this video has this problem.

These are not upcoming. The X-49 was built and discarded years ago

the speed hawk why not just i don’t build a plane, that thing is basically a plane anyway, also iam not sure i would want be flying into enemy territory with the giant hulking engine at the back, it is huge snd would make a pretty easy target.

I like her voice 😍

These things will still be "upcoming" 20 years for now 🙄

Invictus aka Comanche II

The design of defiant x and Sikorsky s-97 raider are the same

Is the MELB-X, newly designated “MH-6R", the "Little Black Bird" helicopters of 160th US Army Special Operations Aviation Regiment (160th SOAR), appears is ready for deployment as a top secret Pilot-optional new special ops helo, with state of the art stealth and fuselage armour technology and navigation and secure communication systems. As well as both electronic-warfare and advance passive active sensors systems, plus new digital flight by wire flight control systems and new state of the art weapons too, even increase onboard fuel tanks with a removable in-flight refuelling probe that can be installed quickly to give extended range and endurance too. To provide Tier One US Special Forces, a clear advantage over any of the international Islamic Terrorist Groups, or over the likes of the Chinese, Russians, or the North Koreans and Iranians, in any future West East conflicts or wars. With the new “MH-6R” or the "Little Black Bird" ready for anything, plus can have a flight of four or six of "MH-6R's" helo's plus their pilots and ground support crews and necessary SF Operators too. Can be anywhere in the world, within 24-hours from the United States, via C-17's and C-5's or by C-130J's flying West over the Pacific Ocean or East over the Atlantic Ocean too. The only question is will the new "MH-6R" replace only the older "MH-6's" only, or will a fleet of new "MH-6R's" replace older "AH-6's" too? Maybe a second question, will these new "MH-6R" helo's, be offered to Nato and other American Allies own Special Aviation Units too?

S-97 Raider ?

SB-1 is not very efficient with its space. It's a big helicopter but only with a small compartment for carrying.

these are not upcoming US military helicopters. Some are prototypes and some will be eliminated in the selection process.

But the thing is if the were sent to battlefield can these next gen choppers, be very effective in battlefiled? Cause there are alot of supersonic missiles that can destroy next gen jet stealth fighter, even these next gen chopper cant even avoid it

I thought the Speedhawk was cancelled.

7:10 usa helicopter Endwar....

AirWolf?

Why do you know all of this I feel this should be classified information

Concern no coaxial

Your comments of the VH-92A are not accurate and are taken out of context. Damaging landing zones 😂 It lands on the White House front lawn and it puts out 3000 SHP

heliCOPter!😆

👍

The narrator has a nice accent but is seem to be really unfamiliar with the tempo of what is written and this plus getting some of the stresses wrong makes listening both difficult and tiring.

heliCOPter

Good, we can send this to Ukraine no strings attached

Big frame this one small frame one or Two passangers three no

These are beyond ideas.

wheres airwolf?

The buzz should hire someone to fix the annoying voice. Almost as bad as Hillary Clinton talking

Just build Airwolf.

i thought there will be rc controlled armed helicopter

A just one main rotor helicopter is a hoax...

that bell 360 looks like a cheap copy of a Camanche

Valor

She said helicopter about 300x

Aaaaand... they're gone :(

USA.🇺🇸. The real matatan.🤔.

I don't think I'd have Russia as a huge threat anymore

A lot of BS on this video, it includes helicopters that lost in competicion. Time to make use of the do not recommend channel

🇺🇸💪🇺🇸💪😎

Airwolf 🐺?
