Rendering Shows Night Stalker-Configured MV-75A Cheyenne II for 160th SOAR
TL;DR
The Army unveiled a Night Stalker-configured MV-75A Cheyenne II rendering, showing a nose radar and turret (likely Silent Knight), a DVEPS-style forward aperture, and an in-flight refueling probe, plus an extensive antenna suite. The baseline MV-75A remains in development, with the service planning to replace about half of the 160th SOAR’s MH-60Ms and a modular open-architecture design to ease upgrades. Fielding timing is unclear: officials have floated first examples possibly next year, but the original 2031 fielding timeline remains cited in other remarks.
