do we see fvl aircraft obviously controlling other aircraft with the potential of controlling fvl aircraft in the future? we do. but this is one of the areas that we really want to explore and see what the capabilities are. so it goes much farther than man-to-man teaming. it gets into, as we said, the optimally crude capability of how different missions could require different crews, and just really continue to explore that and what are the potentials there. as far as advanced sensors, obviously that is something in development. and it goes back to the open architecture. the ability in the joint trade space across the services to use the same architecture, to use different sensors for the services, based on the different mission requirements and things of that nature, that is where we really see the development of that going. >> i completely agree. it kills me to admit this, the army ahead of us on man on man teaming. you guys are. there is no question about it. we do some of it in the marine corps and we have not taken it to the degree that the army has. that is absolutely one of our goal

as we look at protection, fvl speed and range also enables us some additional protection for the force. not only for the aircraft but also for the occupiants and the force in general. the speed and range of fvl coupled with, you know, advanced survivorability equipment, sensors and other equipment enables us to increase the protection of our force. as we look at the lethality of fvl, the speed and range coupled with sensors, lightweight precision munitions is going to increase the lethality of army aviation and vertical lift aviation in the joint force. we spent quite a few years developing our requirements and we still have a long way to go. we're just kind of, you know, scratching the surface on developing our initial requirements, but really what we have is a well informed decision-based plan of execution. we have a very large investment in s & t that's informing the capability set 3 and fvl, we are looking at different ways of manufacturing using different materials, advanced technologies for vertical lift and we're also looking at the opportunity to use a modular open systems arch

the nuances of where the trade space is and what the final fvl cap set three looks like and system looks like, i don't want to say those are small details, they are not. but we all know that we need to advance our capabilities. that we agree on. so i don't know if that was out of the park. >> i can't resist making one other point that really came up from what you were saying, we had an event here yesterday focused on invasion. and the doctor from darpa was one of the panelists. she made the point that really sort of game-changing innovation, a lot of times it is not about changing a specific technology or a specific system, it is about a new architecture that enables an entirely new set of capabilities, new concepts. and so one of the things that strikes me about future vertical lift is it is very explicitly to create entirely new architecture. it is too early to speak to the success of that and what it will enable but that is not to say you couldn't take aspects of it and pull it forward and buy them sooner, but unless you envision and try to reach to that new architecture, you aren't g

the two nations proven that even the bitterest of enemies can change >> since that fate fvl day we have made choice that is give us hope. the united states and japan forged not only an alliance but a friendship. >>> during his hawaiin trip, he met with a number of world war ii vets. today, he did not apologize for the attack but did say japan must never repeat the horrors of war. >>> a scare sent people running from the lobby of trump tower tonight. police ordering everyone out. several bystanders caught up in the incident recorded it as they ran but the all clear was given at 5:00 when a bomb squad examined an unattended backpack and determined that it just contained children's toys, nothing dangerous. president-elect trump lives and works in that building but is tonight currently in florida. >>> police in new york city are also searching for three crooks stole more than $1 million of furs. along manhattans's madison avenue. they threw a concrete block through the window. the thieves seemed to know where to go grabbing the most expensive coats. some worth $200,000 each. weighed in on t
