U.S. Navy Selects US101 for Next Presidential Helicopter

On Friday, January 28 at 5 p.m., the U.S. Navy announced it had selected the US101 as the next "Marine One" helicopter for the President of the United States.

Lockheed Martin-led Team US101 will build and equip the US101 medium-lift helicopter to provide a safe and secure "Oval Office in the Sky" for the President.

A proven product, representing the lowest risk solution to the President, the US101 is a modern military helicopter equipped with triple-redundant systems – including three powerful engines – and the capacity for further capability growth over time.

The US101 helicopter program will create and sustain thousands of jobs across the United States
