V22 Osprey V4

A bit about the V22
The Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey is an American multi-mission, tiltrotor military aircraft with both vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) and short takeoff and landing (STOL) capabilities. It is designed to combine the functionality of a conventional helicopter with the long-range, high-speed cruise performance of a turboprop aircraft.
The failure of Operation Eagle Claw in 1980 during the Iran hostage crisis underscored that there were military roles for which neither conventional helicopters nor fixed-wing transport aircraft were well-suited. The United States Department of Defense (DoD) initiated a program to develop an innovative transport aircraft with long-range, high-speed, and vertical-takeoff capabilities, and the Joint-service Vertical take-off/landing Experimental (JVX) program officially began in 1981. A partnership between Bell Helicopter and Boeing Helicopters was awarded a development contract in 1983 for the V-22 tiltrotor aircraft. The Bell-Boeing team jointly produces the aircraft. The V-22 first flew in 1989 and began flight testing and design alterations; the complexity and difficulties of being the first tiltrotor for military service led to many years of development.
BEST ONE YET, V4
V4 features:
- New proppelers
- New way of transitioning between gyroscope assisted flight and normal flight
- Better turboprob performance (if you saw the last one yk how horrible that was, but i figured it out)

Anyway...
Heres some quick facts about the Osprey and some pictures
Did you know the V22 wasnt actually the first tiltrotor aircraft?
It was infact the Bell XV-3
The V22 Osprey can fully fold its wings like a lot of other carrier-capable aircraft
(Coming next version 100%)
The V22 is the only crewed production tiltrotor aircraft
