Lt. Gen. George Flynn, the Marine Corps’ top requirements officer, told reporters Tuesday in Washington, D.C., that he expects the service to field an unmanned cargo helicopter next year to support troops in remote locations.

Boeing successfully completed its A160T Hummingbird demo in March at the Army’s Dugway Proving Ground in Utah, while the Kaman-Lockheed team showed off its K-MAX there in early February.
