+dacasman Its not that it looks impossible it just looks massively inefficient. Look at those fat flat rotor tips. We got rid of those on helicopters and the propellers on fixed with planes in the name of efficiency. That narrow rotor diameter creates a powerful downwash. Look at that dust plume. That narrow rotor diameter becomes comically large propellers in airplane mode. Inefficient. Its very short service history, however, seems to point out that its very well worth it. Just in CSR alone. This has over 3 times the mission radius of any helicopter I think.
These things are by far my favorite aircraft saw one when I was a little kid, and well now I’m going to school for aerospace engineering. Absolutely an amazing piece of engineering!
@@bradbrad6521 I finish school next semester. I’m still happy with my degree as I really wanted to understand the concepts behind aerospace engineering. Finding a job I’m gonna love with fair pay is difficult although I will find my way!
@@SouthernGent44 haha I wish, unfortunately pricing becomes a huge problem in the civil aerospace industry. And maximizing speed isn’t something the defense industry is all that interested in.
The engineer who designed the ossprey, how he calculated the resistance of the entire structure and mainly the material used in the wings to withstand the acting forces, a genius.
It was likely a team of engineers that went through trial and tribulation and process of elimination in design concepts. Not a singular person with a single idea.
We had a squadron of those flying over our elementary school a year or two ago. Even given the vagaries of the air traffic we get being on the flight path of both the Air Force base in the next county and Camp David ten miles up the road, that Osprey "invasion" was a new one for us!
The marines I knew while I was in the af sometimes referred to it as a coffin with 5 computers. Due to the 5 computers it took to control everything and the fact there was so much more to potentially go wrong
@@HistoryShell1786 And one just went down two days ago. 5 Marines lost. I had to come here to see these things fly and it’s not difficult to imagine the number of problems that could be encountered along with pilots in training.
@@HistoryShell1786 51 souls lost in Blackhawks in 2021 alone. It's interesting how the V22 has this deadly reputation according to the internet when so many other aircraft have actually had as many or more deaths associated with them. Nobody would hesitate to fly on a C-130 but they have been known to develop stress fractures in the air frame and propellers tend to fly off the engines and hit the airframe. 16 marines lost their lives in 2017 aboard a KC-130 after a propeller detached and damaged the plane. The V22 is complex and takes a lot of skill to pilot, but it's a safe aircraft.
When the G8 summit was in Newport, Wales a couple of years ago I saw one of these fly over head in Cardiff at super low altitude. It was insanely loud even compared to a helicopter. I remember thinking "god that seems like an impractical, gimmicky design... but damn is it cool..."
Aviation has changed out of sight even in the past ten years. These aircraft are an outside of the square invention. Kudos to the inventors AND to the lads game enough to fly them
So cool! I saw one of these fly over to the small airport right by my work through my office window. Just had to take another look and learn more. I can see part of the tarmac from here, hopefully I can see it take off! What an awesome aircraft
Blue BMW you are something else It’s from a video game and in the game they have helicopters exactly like the osprey that carry soldiers in heavy armor kinda like a mech suit and they have laser rifles the game is Fallout 4
Was working a job on west coast of Florida a week or so after Hurricane Ian hit and watched 5 Blackhawks and later 2 of these guys fly over taking personnel and aid down there. Couple days later spotted a CH-53 headed into the area..When you see the Osprey in flight you understand why they were developed, much faster and higher flying than conventional helicopters as well as increased range. Very Sci-fi and impressive looking in flight.
I like to say the best of the best showing for this Video Grapher. I like the way showing at the beginning, flying forward, and turning back to the grown. Thanks. Watching this video, I can feel like I am riding the plane.
One of these flew over my house yesterday. They are massively intimidating. The ground and my house shook like an earthquake. My windows rattled violently. An awesome technological, advanced engineering age we live in.
I live near a naval airfield and see *yawn* Blackhawks fly around every day. Last week I saw an Osprey for the first time ever, pretty close, in multiple fly overs, and it scared the S out of me. It’s like seeing Rodan or Mothra, one of Godzillas enemies, in real life: it’s hard to describe how unnerving this thing is, especially as it gains altitude and the motors shift from vertical to horizontal.
Consider this. If one engine fails there's a drive shaft inside the wing connected to a centralised gearbox in the fuselage that can then provision the remaining engine's torque equally across both prop/rotors. Can you imagine just how complex this mechanism is!? And imagine the maintenance requirements! Lots of chip detectors in that gear box and specialised cooling gear I would expect! Plus the mechanism to rotate the engine nacelles exactly in unison so left and right stay in perfect alignment while continuing to deliver torque through the previously mentioned drive shaft....well you have one incredibly complex piece of engineering. Amazing that it actually was completed and is in service!
To answer original op question. These things fly much faster than conventional helicopters. They perform better in high/hot conditions. Hot weather is not good for traditional helicopters, but these perform much better. They can fly higher in helicopter mode. Good for mountainous areas like Afghanistan. These are used on the wasp and American class helicopters. The marines actually use these as refueling tankers out at sea for the wasp and American class deployments at sea. Troop carrier. Can carry smaller vehicles. Pretty flexible machine and the marines love em.
‘Tilt rotor’ concept is actually pre WW11, builds started in ‘49 and first full transition achieved in ‘58. Bell had a full proof of concept by early ‘80s. V22 is very very long time in coming.
They had 2 XV-15s when i was there one was.wrecked a guy told me they were going to repair it.No way it was in many pieces cut up with a sawsall like humpty dumpty .Used for spare parts for the one that still flew.Mostly mechanical gear boxes and pull tubing made before microciruits.
I was in HMM-161 back in the 80's at MCAS(H) Tustin, Ca. Saw the prototype do a flight demonstration in late 1983 or early 1984. Was planned to replace the CH-46 by 1989 but we all know that didn't happen. Phrogs Phorever !
While visiting Yuma, AZ, we’d see the Ospreys depart the field nearly every day. The acceleration never ceased to amaze. These babies haul! I hope my tax money goes to securing future versions with all the improvements in technology that apply.
I could not believe my eyes the first time I saw a video of one of these things flying. This is Science Fiction come to reality! Took me straight back to Avatar.
Somebody was taking a joy ride in one of these over my house today... made a different sound than most planes... passed over, then a few minutes later it flew back over in the direction it came from. My guess is that it came from Willow Grove, PA.
Seal of Approval Same. There is an airforce base about a half mile from where I live, and there are always Ospreys, Apache's, Pavelows, Blackhawks, Super Hornets, and Vipers flyin around.
We have an Air Force base in the next county (next state, actually, it's over the line) and we're about ten miles away from Camp David, so we have cargo planes flying into or out of the base right overhead every day. It used to be the big C-17's, but then they switched to the newer, more efficient cargo plane (sorry, I forget what exactly it is!) two years ago. But since I grew up on the flight path to Joint Base Andrews, it reminded me of those C-17s flying over our house and rattling my mom's china cabinet in the dining room. Anyway, I digress. Like I said, we're on the flight path to Camp David, so we sometimes get the big military helicopters flying overhead going to or from there, and last year we had a squadron of Ospreys flying over the school complex here (elementary, middle, and high schools are on the same grounds). Since they'd never flown in our area before, everybody was all "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot" about it wondering what they were. Now they're just another part of the low-flying air traffic that we're used to.
OMG - these planes are amazing. As a history and action movie buff I've been seeing them appear in some of the movies but didn't believe they were real until I did a bit of Wikipedia research. Their ability to multi task and be packed into an aircraft carrier is incredible - I'm frankly a little speechless :)
Awhitapu They're awesome unique and reliable now that the whole tilt propeller tech has improved and all old flaws have been Fixed its super reliable. Only a little expensive like i think you can get 2 Unarmed apaches or something.m for about the same price.
My only question is, how do these things perform in a single engine failure condition? Those wings are definitely too short to get enough lift to glide, can it still auto rotate down with two rotors?
you are correct corey, the aircraft has an interconnecting drive shaft system that transmits power from a single engine to both of the rotors if need be in a single engine failure situation -- USMC MV-22 Mech
Believe or not when these things are in airplane mode those wings provide 100% of the lift so the engines are used for thrust. In vtol mode, is where single engine can be problematic
They are incredibly difficult to fly. My buddy pilots one and he said that during takeoff and landing it is very difficult to keep the ospreuy from rolling
@@damonkey3214 Heard the same was true with the Harrier jump jets that why pilot usually just cut the engines a couple meters before landing and just let the aircraft drop per se
Wow ! Is Beautiful Would give anything to see one Functioning in front of Me BTW The Engineers of These Aircrafts must get a Huge Paycheck is Just Amazing
I live in Thetford forest and these things regularly fly over. Distinctive noise and two large red circles at the front during the night. Just last week driving home saw one hovering above the trees about two football pitches away. This was no helicopter and made me jump. Thankfully I kept control of the car.
A two roter Osprey flew over my neighborhood yesterday in Queens N.Y. 5/24/19 The sight and sound was awe inspiring. I and everybody else around were completely dumbstruck.
Everyone who said they saw a 4 or "Quadrotor" variant of an Osprey is lying. The Bell-Boeing "V44" or "QTR" was conceptualized and plans were drawn up, but the program was eventually scrapped because it wasn't deemed a necessary program. The only place one has ever been seen is on the Bell-Boeing project video outline, and in Transformers: Dark of the Moon, both of which were CGI.
Saw one flying over my city of St. Louis today right downtown. Looked awesome. I remember they had problems early on I guess they are way more reliable now.

Seen at Yokota Airbase friendship festival
Used them Afghanistan..
A two roter Osprey flew over my neighborhood yesterday in Queens N.Y. 5/24/19 The sight and sound was awe inspiring. I and everybody else around were completely dumbstruck.
Everyone who said they saw a 4 or "Quadrotor" variant of an Osprey is lying. The Bell-Boeing "V44" or "QTR" was conceptualized and plans were drawn up, but the program was eventually scrapped because it wasn't deemed a necessary program. The only place one has ever been seen is on the Bell-Boeing project video outline, and in Transformers: Dark of the Moon, both of which were CGI.
This is the most effective USAF recruitment video
It's a Vertibird! Let me get my power armor...
Saw one flying over my city of St. Louis today right downtown. Looked awesome. I remember they had problems early on I guess they are way more reliable now.
New tech is always this way. It needed time to mature
