MD Helicopters (MDH) (Booth #2911) is bringing its new look and renewed commitment to the 2023 Army Aviation Mission Solutions Summit (AAAA) in Nashville this week. The helicopter manufacturer will display its highly effective armed MD Cayuse Warrior Plus helicopter and hold a leadership introduction event where attendees and media can meet MD’s new leadership and learn about the company’s aggressive goals, positive changes already taking place, and how MDH is strengthening support for the Army.

“Our military customers continue to be extremely important to MD Helicopters and we are already strengthening our support for those who serve,” said Brad Pedersen, MD Helicopters President and CEO. “Since taking over seven short months ago, our team of deeply experienced leaders have begun bolstering our supply chain, increasing parts availability, and strengthening our service center network. We are dedicated to keeping our military aircraft flying while spooling up production to deliver more advanced, modern aircraft to meet the needs of changing theaters.”
