CMV-22 Osprey Takeoff, landing, and more NAF El Centro
CMV-22B Osprey
Mission
The CMV-22B is the Navy’s long-range/medium-lift element of the intra-theater aerial logistics capability; it fulfills the Joint Force Maritime Component Commander (JFMCC) time-critical logistics air connector requirements by transporting personnel, mail and priority cargo from advance bases to the Seabase.
Description
The CMV-22B Osprey is a variant of th
e MV-22B and is the replacement for the C-2A Greyhound for the Carrier Onboard Delivery (COD) mission. The Osprey is a tiltrotor V/STOL aircraft that can takeoff and land as a helicopter but transit as a turboprop aircraft.
It will provide the Navy with significant increases in capability and operational flexibility over the C-2A. CMV-22B operations can be either shore-based, “expeditionary”, or sea-based. The Osprey is a critical warfighting enabler, providing the time sensitive combat logistics needed to support combat operations.
As compared to the MV-22B, the Navy variant has extended operational range, a beyond line-of-sight HF radio, improved fuel dump capability, a public address system for passengers, and an improved lighting system for cargo loading. The CMV-22B will be capable of transporting up to 6,000 pounds of cargo/personnel to a 1,150 NM range.
The CMV-22B declared Initial Operational Capability (IOC) in 2021. While the Program of Record has 48 CMV-22 projected, the Navy currently plans to procure only 44 aircraft.

Good evening fellas, those r some cool birds awesome footage & awesome content

[@ImpendingJoker]

I have to say that the CMV-22 is best looking of the trio. I like that insignia white over light ghost gray scheme.

[@Epicaviation47]

Agreed

[@get2dachoppa249]

The gray is FS 136440 Gull Gray. Look at 1:11, you can see the difference in color between the Osprey & the AH-1Z Cobra which is painted FS 36375 Light Ghost on its sides.

[@Epicaviation47]

Indeed thanks for watching

Fascinating machine! Able to take off and land vertically and to hover like a helicopter. And then after transitioning the rotor blades with the whole engines to a vertical position to fly similar to a plane! I wonder how the controls are working like to be able fulfill both flying functionalities! Looks comlpicated and not easy to fly for me. Great video!

[@TimIvins]

I believe these r all over the U.S

[@ImpendingJoker]

There are a lot of them yes but they are not all over the US. There are only a few bases in the USMC, USAF, and USN that operate them.
