Description
Description — CH-47 Cargo Helicopter Mods (MYP)
The CH-47F Chinook, the Army's only heavy lift helicopter, is the enduring platform that supports the Transformation in Contact (TiC) and Continuous Transformation objectives. The CH-47F twin-turbine, tandem-rotor, heavy lift transport helicopter is a critical component of the TiC to successfully conduct Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) as part of an integrated joint force. The significant modifications to the CH-47F include: Improving cyber security, communication security (COMSEC), aircraft handling qualities through iterative development, integration, testing and fielding to the Common Avionics Architecture System (CAAS) and the Digital Automatic Flight Control System (DAFCS); integrating and fielding capability to the remaining fleet with Cargo Platform Health Environment (CPHE) and Improved Vibration Control System (IVCS); maintaining currency and certification of fleet Training Aids Devices Simulators and Simulations (TADSS); refreshing avionics software to address cyber security threats and safety improvements; replacing obsolete parts critical for aircraft operation and unavailable hardware and equipment. The modifications support requirements driven by rapid changes in the commercial electronics hardware market, heavy industry market, evolving cyber security threats, military interoperability, and civil airspace navigation. These modifications require software systems updates, testing, integration, training, and logistics support. The funding priorities are developing, testing, and fielding improvements in cyber security, aircraft handling qualities, obsolescence, CPHE, COMSEC, IVCS, Assured Positioning Navigation Timing (APNT), improved multi-core processors, and expansion of the flexibility provided by the CAAS Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) to maintain capability as well as insert new capabilities.
Justification
Justification — CH-47 Cargo Helicopter Mods (MYP)
FY 2026 procurement dollars in the amount of $17.709 million supports avionics updates and improvements fielded across the fleet. Funding procures critical avionics updates and safety improvements to maintain the CH-47F Avionics and Software systems, insert technologies such as CPHE, IVCS, COMSEC improvements (M code), cyber security improvements, APNT and the future common enterprise cockpit architecture. These will address obsolescence, needed tech insertions and updates, address improvements in aircraft handling qualities, MOSA, and provide integration opportunities for common equipment providers to insert technology improvements thru development, integration, testing, and fielding by way of the CAAS and DAFCS MOSA interfaces. The FY 2026 request was reduced by $0.215 million for Advisory and Assistance Services to promote efficiencies and advance the policies of the Administration in alignment with Executive Order 14222, "Implementing the President's Department of Government Efficiency Cost Efficiency Initiative." In accordance with Section 1815 of the 2008 National Defense Authorization Act (P.L. 110-181), this item is necessary for use by the Active and Reserve Components of Armed Forces for homeland and defense missions, domestic emergency responses and providing military support to civil authorities.
