In 2022, there were over 360 exhibitors and more than 35 countries represented with exponential growth expected this year as the entire industry celebrates the 40th Anniversary of the Army Aviation Branch.

DRG’s Future Focus
The Future Vertical Lift (FVL) initiative began in 2008 to address the growing demand for faster, longer-range, more powerful engines with higher horsepower, lower fuel consumption, and diagnostic insights. The rotary wing aircraft of the past are soaring to new heights with this focus towards the future of aviation with the largest helicopter procurement decision in 40 years for the U.S. Army, according to an article posted on DefenseNews on December 5th, 2022. DRG has been following the development of FVL since 2009.
With this shift, DRG has already started preparing for the requirements of FVL training and FVL maintenance while continuing to provide unparalleled services for aircraft vehicles currently in service. FVL is expected to be in service by 2025 and in the battlefield by 2030.
