Ospreys are cool but apparently the cost of the aircraft and maintenance requirements means the military is leery of using them in combat.

All of our aircraft are expensive as fuck to fly, that's not the issue. It's more like they don't want to risk proprietary technology being captured. They don't pull these things out for conventional forces anyways, pretty much just special ops.

What is the advantage of a tiltrotor like the Osprey over a tandem-rotor like the Chinook? In cost terms I presume a Chinook must be cheaper to build and operate. Do the advantages of the Osprey justify the cost?
>>
>>4922324
Chinooks are slower and can't land in some of the spots the Osprey can. Ospreys are also outfitted with more advanced avionics. Also, as I previously stated, Ospreys are more for special forces infiltration while Chinooks are used by conventional forces.

You can drop some specops, a Bobcat and flat Hescos and start a FOB quickly.

Why is the plane leaking oil?

>>4930748
It's not oil, it's de-icing fluid. That's what that truck is doing.
