Ohhh, I feel for contractors who had to work on the project.

I've been inside the "final product' and must say that the Osprey might make a fast way to bring troups close to the front. However, I would feel very uncomfortable sending the Osprey into battle or a war zone, its a death trap IMHO.


Its much safer in those zones then the Phrog which it is replacing, better armored, faster takeoff, bigger lift capability, much much faster and it can fly with one prop out, which a Phrog can only dream about. Most of the Marine pilots have flown both obviously, and everyone I've talked to is adamant on wanting the Osprey over the CH-46.
