Snyder previously led Bell Helicopter’s government business operations and oversaw the V-22 Osprey program.

“He will focus on extending the great success we’ve built for established programs like the V-22 and H-1 military programs, while also growing our strong pipeline of new products such as the 525 Relentless, 505 Jet Ranger X and the V-280 Valor, to name just a few, ” said Scott Donnelly, Textron chairman and CEO.
