Doubts about Osprey don’t negate need for tilt-rotor technology
The Pentagon’s acquisition chief has raised doubts about whether the V-22 Osprey tilt-rotor aircraft can become a viable addition to the military, but he holds out the possibility that the innovative successor to the helicopter will go into production.
The Center for Security Policy has been a strong advocate of the Osprey from the beginning, and last year held a roundtable of distinguished military and civilian experts who confirmed the need for the aircraft and its tilt-rotor technology.
The technology in the V-22 is crucial to a more modern, more efficient, and more lethal military – especially for Marines and special operations forces. It is important that the Pentagon not close the book on this remarkable advance in aviation.
Our mission is to secure America’s founding principles and freedom through forthright national security analysis and policy solutions.
