Bell-Boeing V-22 Osprey
Aircraft of the U.S. Marines Corps
Entwicklung
The Osprey is the world's first production tiltrotor aircraft, with two three-bladed proprotor, turboprop engine, and transmission nacelle mounted on each wingtip. For takeoff and landing, it typically operates as a helicopter with the nacelles vertical and rotors horizontal. Once airborne, the nacelles rotate forward 90° in as little as 12 seconds for horizontal flight, converting the V-22 to a more fuel-efficient, higher-speed turboprop airplane.
Versionen
Basic U.S. Marine Corps transport-version.
Einsatzgeschichte
The U.S. Marine Corps began crew training for the Osprey in 2000, and fielded it in 2007; it is supplementing and will eventually replace their CH-46 Sea Knights.
