I can’t wait to see the production version.

You've understated the V-280 Valor's top speed ... it's documented at 305 kts. This was achieved in test benchmarks whilst flying at a level altitude. The Production variant shall fly even faster - as it'll be fitted with more powerful R-R engines

The AI sure struggles with those aircraft designations and number especially the Bell 200 & 80

I wish I could ride in the Bell V-280 VTOL aircraft at high altitudes and low altitudes a few times. ... not just a single time. I just love it 😍.

Looking at the V-22 records. Some doubts this helicopter can actually perform. I still love the old Black Hawk.

People keep saying that but I've seen the records and it's not bad at all. These are war machines, not civil aviation. Also the Blackhawk was terrible when it was new. They called it the "lawn dart" for quite some time.

Funny you say this when the Black Hawk had 20+ crashes in its first 6 years of service which is still more than the Osprey has in total so far... The records say otherwise btw as the Osprey is safer than other medium lift helicopters...

Especially since the whole V-22 osprey fleet across all branches is grounded until further notice due to the last mishap in Japan.

@@Dannamal-hc8pu That is how military aviation is... If a crash happens they make sure it isn't a mechanical issue that can affect other aircraft. Did you also focus on the 5+ Black Hawk crashes that happened in a single year?
