Large Scale Combat Operations (LSCO) significantly increase the demand for the enduring, first order capabilities of Army Aviation; 'See' (reconnaissance and security), 'Move' (air assault, air movement and aeromedical evacuation), and 'Strike' (close support and interdiction). Tne ability to successfully employ Army Aviation against near-peer adversaries hinges on the ability to improve its reach, survivability, lethality, and sus-tainment in order to provide these fundamental capabilities to the Army in the future operational environment. To maintain or regain overmatch with the threat, both technically and tactically/operationally/strategically, it is critical that we keep modernization priorities aligned with the rest of the force in order to avoid the creation of gaps across capability sets. Army Aviation is a fundamental part of the Combined Arms Team and this is reflected in the fact that Aviation continues to remain in the top tier of the Army's overall modernization strategy. To support this strategy, the Aviation Enterprise has laid out a road map that provides the Army the capabilities they require to meet the Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) Way Point 2028, Aim Point 2035 and beyond. These capabilities are formed around the Future Attack Reconnaissance Aircraft (FARA), the Future Long Range Assault Aircraft (FLRAA), Future Tactical Unmanned Aircraft Systems (FTUAS), and the Modular Open Systems Architecture (MOSA).
