兩大航太巨頭結盟，打造新世代旋翼訓練體系

美國波音公司（Boeing, NYSE: BA）與義大利雷奧納多公司（Leonardo）於2025年10月13日宣布，將攜手競標美國陸軍的「Flight School Next」合約，該計畫採用「Contractor-Owned, Contractor-Operated（COCO）」模式，由承包商自有並操作訓練機隊。
這項合作結合波音在陸軍直升機訓練與系統整合方面的經驗，以及雷奧納多的 AW119T 教練直升機平台，目標是為新一代軍用飛行員提供高效、可擴展的整合訓練方案。

ENGLISH:
In Philadelphia on October 13, 2025, Boeing [NYSE: BA] and Leonardo announced a collaboration to pursue the U.S. Army’s Flight School Next contractor-owned, contractor-operated (COCO) service contract.
The partnership combines Boeing’s extensive experience in Army rotary-wing training and mission systems with Leonardo’s AW119T training helicopter, aiming to deliver a scalable, efficient, and integrated training solution for the next generation of U.S. Army aviators.

🛩️ 波音的戰術訓練傳承：從Apache延伸到次世代

波音長年為全球 AH-64 Apache 攻擊直升機提供訓練、模擬與任務系統支援，包括虛實整合模擬（LVC）、駕駛艙程序訓練器與教官培訓計畫，確保飛行員即時作戰與維持戰力。
憑藉這套經驗與整合能力，波音強調將可為美軍提供「完整COCO制訓練方案」，涵蓋飛機、模擬、維修與課程管理全流程。

ENGLISH:
Boeing brings decades of experience in rotary-wing training through its work supporting the AH-64 Apache fleet worldwide. The company provides live, virtual, and constructive (LVC) training, cockpit procedure trainers, and instructor development programs to sustain mission readiness.
Leveraging its expertise in systems integration, simulation, and program management, Boeing is positioned to deliver a full-spectrum COCO training capability to the U.S. Army.

🧩 長期效益：整合式訓練提升效率與戰備

「我們結合兩家產業領導者的優勢，為陸軍提供一個整合、長期的訓練方案，」波音全球服務部高級總監 John Chicoli 表示。
他指出，此方案不僅能提升飛行員熟練度，也能改善維修與後勤效率，確保計畫全生命週期內的可衡量價值。

ENGLISH:
“We are bringing together two industry leaders to offer the Army a turnkey, innovative approach to rotary-wing training with an integrated, long-term solution that enhances aviator proficiency and operational efficiency,” said John Chicoli, Senior Director for U.S. Army, Marines & Special Operations Missions at Boeing Global Services.
“This approach will deliver measurable value throughout the life of the program,” he added.

🚁 AW119T：實績超十萬小時的單引擎教練機

雷奧納多的 AW119T 為成熟的單引擎訓練直升機平台，累積超過 100,000小時 飛行紀錄，其中包含 16,000小時儀表飛行（IFR） 與 40,000次自動旋降著陸（Autorotation）。
目前美國海軍在阿拉巴馬州Fort Rucker操作 130架AW119T，由雷奧納多負責維修與後勤，能與美陸軍計畫形成即時協同效益。

ENGLISH:
Leonardo’s AW119T is a commercially supported single-engine training helicopter that has logged over 100,000 flight hours, including 16,000 IFR hours and more than 40,000 touchdown autorotations.
The U.S. Navy currently operates 130 AW119T aircraft near Fort Rucker, Alabama, with Leonardo providing sustainment—offering immediate logistics synergies and rapid responsiveness for the Army program.

💬 雷奧納多美國分公司CEO：成熟平台即刻可用

「AW119T 是已在美軍訓練中每天服役的成熟平台，」Leonardo Helicopters U.S. 執行長 Clyde Woltman 表示。
他指出，結合佛州現有後勤網絡與波音整合能力，雙方能即刻為陸軍提供戰備可用、長期具成本效益的訓練體系。

ENGLISH:
“The AW119T is a proven platform that already supports U.S. military training every day,” said Clyde Woltman, CEO of Leonardo Helicopters U.S.
“With over 100,000 flight hours and a sustainment network in Florida, Leonardo and Boeing are uniquely positioned to deliver immediate capability and long-term value to the Army through Flight School Next,” he added.
