The UH-60 series Black Hawk utility helicopter is considered a successful product of the country's Army modernization program. Development of the military helicopter is attributed to congressional activity, Army requirements and industry cooperation. One of the main functions of the Black Hawk is its application as a transport system for medical evacuation in both combat and non-combat operations.

Outrider
Article Abstract:
Alliant Techsystems Inc's Outrider unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) has finished its advanced concept technology demonstration phase in the summer of 1998. The future of the UAV, whether it will be commissioned for full fielding to the US Army or relegated to the same fate as the Hunter and the Aquila, is now in the hands of the army's decision makers. The Outrider is presented the 65% to 75% solution to the Army's UAV requirement but falls short of the specifications contained in the JROC 150-95.
