Honeywell has been selected to provide the Bell MV-75 tiltrotor with its environmental control system (ECS) and auxiliary power unit (APU), it said Monday at the Paris Air Show. Previously designated as the V-280 Valor, the tiltrotor was selected to answer the U.S. Army’s Future Long-Range Assault Aircraft requirement in December 2022.

Bell Textron announced the official MV-75 designation for the production aircraft last month, honoring the Army’s founding year, 1775. A demonstrator has been flying since December 2017.
