    OVERVIEW About the Joint Multi-Role Demonstrator and Future Vertical Lift Programs The U.S. Army-led Joint Multi-Role Demonstrator (JMR-TD) program is the science and technology precursor to the Department of Defense’s Future Vertical Lift program expected to replace 2,000 to 4,000 medium-class utility and attack helicopters. The U.S. Army and Department of Defense are seeking leap-ahead capabilities and have identified a speed of 230+ knots as a key discriminating capability. The U.S. Army’s current helicopter fleet cruises at 140 knots. About the Bell V-280 Valor Bell Helicopter is the world’s tiltrotor expert with 55 years of experience and critical, proprietary expertise in rotor systems, drive systems, and sophisticated fly-by-wire technologies. In April 2013, Bell Helicopter revealed its offering – the Bell V-280 Valor, a third generation tiltrotor for the JMR-TD program. The Bell V-280’s unmatched speed, range and payload, operational agility, and low speed maneuverability provide transformational reach and revolutionary capability. In August 2014, the JMR-TD government team selected Bell Helicopter to build and fly the V-280 Valor as part of the demonstration program. Bell Helicopter and Team Valor are focused on building and flying a trusted, affordable and effective aircraft, and the team is on track for first flight in 2017.

    Future Vertical Lift (FVL)

    Joint Multi-Role (JMR)


    Technology Demonstrator (TD)

    With twice the speed and range of conventional helicopters, the Bell V-280 will offer U.S. Army maneuver commanders unmatched operational agility to self-deploy
    and perform a multitude of vertical lift missions unachievable with current aircraft. The Valor is a combat force multiplier with superior performance, payload,
    survivability, and reliability to give the warfighter the decisive advantage.

    Speed: 280 KTAS

    Combat Range: 500800nm

    Strategically Self-Deployable: 2100+ nm Range
