Well what has happened in the last 14 years? There have not been any fitting
and firing trials of any guided or unguided munitions for the V-22 AFAIK? No
Stingers or Maverick or Harpoon let alone Hellfire?
These aren't company-sponsored feasability studies the colonel is talkiing about. He's saying that AFSOC is to develop a gunship variant of the CV-22 (not trial individual components of that capability), and that the marines are following developments with a view to adopting them on its MV-22s.

Is that really old news, and not worth reporting, or are you just trying to be clever?
