Joint Replacement Aircraft
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Joint Replacement Aircraft (aka JRA) is a US Defense Department project to build a common utility aircraft that will replace the UH-1N Huey, AH-1 Cobra, all variants of the UH-60 and SH-60, and the AH-64 Apache. This utility aircraft can be modified to function as a gunship, troop and cargo transport, or as a search and rescue vehicle. It may incorporate tiltrotor technology. The project is still in the concept stage and is estimated to be fielded sometime around 2025.
