This bill directs the Secretary of Defense to submit two comprehensive reports to Congress within 90 days of its enactment. These reports are intended to assess the feasibility of integrating advanced safety systems into all military rotary-wing aircraft, aiming to improve operational safety and interaction with civilian airspace. One report will analyze the feasibility of installing Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance Systems (TCAS) , detailing costs, effects on civilian airspace safety, necessary cockpit modifications, and implications for combat, training, and domestic security operations. The second report will similarly examine the feasibility of installing Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast IN (ADS-B IN) capabilities. Both reports require the Secretary to recommend alternative systems if the primary installations are determined to be unfeasible.
