Could we maybe see a HEAVLY ARMED Osprey?
I know its still going thru deployment trials, but IF they could make it work , would it not tick all the boxes? speed , armement , with a troop carrying role? SAR-Medi vac role to boot ?????
What is the current fly-away cost of an Osprey? $70-90M?
You could buy a whole squadron of Tucanos for the cost of a single Osprey.
