Can't they retire these yet?
日本は攻撃してないからな💦
アメリカ人は勘違いしないで😂
I worked on these things for 8 years, absolute nightmare to maintain. Every time I flew on one I thought my ticket was punched.
They need to retire the OSPREY,, they not safe smh
But what bout the beard lengths or pot tests?
Osprey is the most unreliable aircraft and has the most deaths yet they say "they upgraded the Osprey" Yet it sill crashes and kills smh yea looks cool but i rather be in something safe than something cool lol
The Osprey is a failure, nothing but a death trap. Only politicians should fly on one
Osprey and DC 10..same whatsapp group
I don't get it…those aircrafts are known to have problems in the past…why do they keep on flying in them?
It’s hard to land these on moving ships because the normal helicopter only has one area of lift where this has two areas that they have to compensate for which is too much for the pilots that will then overcorrect the steering and they crash so if they upgrade them with a computer that can stabilize and make better corrections like on the F35. These choppers were made in the early 2000s and have to much analog control
How many Marines have to die before they ground that POS?
Does anyone know the real story about why this aircraft went down?
TOTAL CORRUPTION keeping those Dodo birds in the air.
Alhamdulillah.🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
Biden has another ice cream cone and the administration continues to ignore glaring problems.
USA: WE ARE THE STRONGEST!! WE GOT THE BEST MILITARY EQUIPMENT, ONLY OUR SOLDIERS ARE WAR-EXPERIENCED
also USA: crash without any fight. 🦅🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸 YEEEEEHAWWW we are so strong that we went down without fighting!! cowboy idiots
For those complaining about the Osprey being a dangerous aircraft, you don't have a clue about aviation. Most of the accidents today are from pilots being trained to fly it. Admittedly, it is not an easy aircraft to learn because of the 2 different flight characteristics of multi engine fixed wing and helicopters. Particularly when close to the ground where problems are harder to recover from.
While there were some hardware issues, most of those were promptly fixed with changes to maintenence. The only real issue today is the clutch slip. And that's only a problem when they are hovering close to the ground where the pilot has little time to correct.
There are far more aircraft in aviation history that were prone to crashing or mishaps. Heck, even the Blackhawks still crash.
AMERICAN SOLDIER = 2023 !!
Our soldiers line up to be remembered
As the best of the best at their job.
They wish to be needed and depended on
To save all we love from the mob.
They risk their life and limb for liberty
Standing firm against evil unwilling to break.
To be part of something greater than themselves
They are willing to sacrifice whatever it will take.
