The Innovative Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey Project Was Initiated During The 1980S, But Only Emerged Into Production And Was Deployed To Various Arms Of The Us Armed Forces, After Enduring A Long And Complex Developmental Process Which Lasted For Over Twenty Years. The Osprey Is A Tilt Rotor, Equipped With Two Tilting Engines Which Have Large Three-Blade Propellers Attached That Make It Able To Land And Take-Off Vertically Like A Helicopter, And Also Possessing Flight And Transfer Performance Similar To That Of A Conventional Propeller Plane. Thanks To Its Two Powerful 6,150 Hp Rolls-Royce T406-Ad-400 Engines It Can Exceed 500 Km / H In Horizontal Flight. The United States Marine Corps Is The Principal User Of The Aircraft, Exploiting Its Tactical Versatility And The Transport Capability Of The V-22 In Particular, For Operational Support During Troop Landings. The Osprey Undertook Its First Operational Missions In Iraq In 2008.
