Future of US Marine Corps SAR

When will we see an Osprey replace the Cherry Point Pedro 46?

It would seem a perfect job for such an aircraft.....fast, long range, about the same avionics for SAR duties and all or does the 46 fly too much too often?

The New Bern July 4th airshow had the Pedro.....and not the Osprey doing a SAR demo. Good show it was.....with the feller riding the winch cable with the Flag flying!
