The following two technical sections are devoted to helicopters in service and under development/research, succeeded by helicopter engines, all listed in alphabetical order under the prime contractor. Section five summarises guide prices for helicopters in service, split into new, low-time and mid-time conditions, followed by unmanned helicopters and other VTOL craft, in service or under development for military missions and commercial applications.
