'Future Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft' program suspended | uncrewed systems in focus !
Within six years of initiating it, the US Army has shelved the Future Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft (FARA) program to develop next-generation armed scout helicopters.
FARA program was started by the United States Army in 2018 to develop a successor to the Bell OH-58 Kiowa scout helicopter as part of the Future Vertical Lift program.
The announcement of abandoning the program, which cost the service $2 billion, was made on February 8, 2024. Army Chief of Staff General Randy George said, “We are learning from the battlefield – especially in Ukraine – that aerial reconnaissance has fundamentally changed.”
The US Army announced it would expand its expenditure on uncrewed aircraft following a “sober assessment of the modern battlefield.”
Randy George basically implied the war in Ukraine has shown manned reconnaissance to be obsolete.
