Power Plants for the Army

In summary, I have attempted to reiterate my views on general helicopter and VTOL engine requirements, and how to obtain them Great emphasis in placed on alleviating service-revealed deficiencies of current engines. Every advantage is taken of advancements in "state-of-the-Art." Every approach to reducing power plant support is carefully considerec. All aspects of new power plant requirements are evaluated before initiation of new development programs. Suggestions and proposals from industry instigate new programs for increasing the effectiveness of the Army helicopter power plant, and are always appreciated and thoroughly evaluated.
