VXX, officially the Presidential Helicopter Replacement Program, is a procurement program to replace aging Marine One helicopters that transport the President of the United States. The current VH-3 helicopters have aging airframes, having entered service with United States Marine Corps Marine Helicopter Squadron One (HMX-1) in 1963. The VH-3D replaced the VH-3A by 1976.[6] The smaller VH-60N entered service in 1987.[7] On 7 May 2014, it was announced that the Sikorsky VH-92 had won the VXX competition.[8]
