The Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey is a unique military aircraft that combines the capabilities of a helicopter and a fixed-wing airplane. It features two large rotors that can tilt, allowing it to take off and land vertically like a helicopter while also flying at high speeds like an airplane. This versatility makes it suitable for various missions, including troop transport and supply delivery. Developed by Bell Helicopter and Boeing, the Osprey has been in service since the early 2000s. It is primarily used by the United States Marine Corps, Air Force, and Navy. The aircraft can carry up to 24 troops or 20,000 pounds of cargo, making it an essential asset for modern military operations.
