Well...if you read your link then you would know the answer to your question:
"Since the 22nd MEU is not deploying with a Marine Special Operations Company, we're simply going to be working toward a recommendation for a MEU certification," said Armstrong.
MarineSpecial Operations Company (MSOC) is the DA for the MEU. The MSOCs replaced the MSPF. An MSOC consist of roughly 100 Marines (about half Recon and the other half command element and infantry). They don't own any aviation assets. Those belong to the MEU commander and the ACE. Therefore the 22 MEU not getting its SOC certification has nothing to do with the V-22. It sounds as though the MSOC may be committed elsewhere. Not sure how that's the V-22's fault.
...By the way... a 'non SOC capable' MEU is still a very capable combat element, which why it is being deployed.
