Military Helicopter Training Safety Act of 2025

Key Points

• This bill asks the Department of Defense to look into adding new safety technology to every military helicopter. The goal is to prevent crashes by using systems that alert pilots when other aircraft are too close.
• The military would have 90 days to report back to Congress on how much this would cost and how it would change the way cockpits are set up. They also need to check if these tools would interfere with combat or training missions.
• The study focuses on two specific tools. One helps pilots see where other planes are in the sky, and the other gives automatic warnings if a collision is about to happen.
• If the Defense Department finds these specific systems will not work for military use, they must suggest other ways to keep pilots safe in the air. This is meant to protect both military crews and civilian planes flying nearby.
