Article intéressant dans Forbes rappelant les capacités du V-22 Osprey, et l'intérêt de remplacer les C-2A, en particulier pour supporter la logistique de la Marine US dans la zone Pacifique.

[quote]As the Marines have already discovered in their own operations, the flexibility of the Osprey enables missions that previously would not have been possible.  A C-2A is basically good for one thing — flying between an aircraft carrier and land bases — but a V-22 can be used for a wide array of missions such as combat search and rescue or reconnaissance even if it was bought mainly to support logistics functions.  At a time when the Navy is facing more overseas challenges with less money, it makes sense to support the fleet with aircraft that are versatile, rather than limited to a single mission.  The inherent flexibility of tiltrotor technology will become increasingly appealing as America’s pivot to the Pacific progresses.[/quote]

Bien qu'étant un supporter du V-22 Osprey depuis la première heure, je suis toujours impressionné par l'apport issu des fantastiques capacités de cet appareil.  :)

Le rêve d'un passionné de défense aérienne qui est devenu réalité.  :hehe:[/quote]
