[In Morgan Freeman voice] He's right, you know.
The V-22 gearboxes are put together by Bell.
Fairpoint just simply a reaction to the article and it being a very large common tier 1 supplier to Boeing.
I’m a little suspect of the level of journalism where a serious article assures us that the “(V-22) has become known as the ‘widow-maker.’”All roads lead to Boeing. My first reaction... What a dumpster fire Boeing is. Fly the 737? Fly the P-8? How can you not be concerned?

Dethroning the previous “widow maker,” the AV-8B.
I wondered about the veracity of that claim...
I bet if you pull the string that other major aviation companies besides Bell and Boeing use their products. Apparently, you don’t have to do real journalism when you make money by getting clicks.
Still doesn’t excuse the fact that the PIC pushed a bad situation and was prepared to make a 300nm open ocean xsit with the a/c in the condition it was in.
The baby is going to be ugly, that’s for sure
Let's dump the tiltrotors for turboprop powered autogyros.

Todays press release brings the total buy to 44 aircraft...
Naval Air Systems Command, Patuxent River, Maryland, is the contracting activity. The work is scheduled to be completed in January 2028. The deal is valued at $590 million.
The CMV-22B Osprey is a variant of the 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.
The aircraft provides the US Navy with increased 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, the navy emphasized.
The CMV-22B declared initial operational capability (IOC) in 2021. While the Program of Record has 48 CMV-22 projected, the US Navy currently plans to procure 44 aircraft.
The US Navy established Fleet Logistics Multi-Mission Squadron (VRM) 30 – its first CMV-22B squadron – in a ceremony at Naval Base Coronado in 2018.
