The V-22 Osprey Joint Services Advanced Vertical Lift Aircraft (V-22) Program was established by the DoD to develop, test, evaluate, procure, field and support a tilt rotor, Vertical/Short Takeoff and Landing aircraft for Joint Service application. The Navy was designated the Executive Agent with support from the United States Air Force (USAF) in the V-22 Joint Program Office located at the Naval Air Systems Command Headquarters, Naval Air Station Patuxent River, MD. The V-22 Program is designed to provide an aircraft to meet the amphibious/vertical assault needs of the United States Marine Corps (USMC), the Carrier-On Board Delivery/fleet logistics needs of the Navy, and the special operations needs of the USAF and United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). The MV-22 variant replaces the CH-46E and CH-53D in the USMC. The CV-22 variant replaces the MH-53-J/M, but also provides a new capability and augments the MC-130 in the USAF/USSOCOM inventory for special operations infiltration, exfiltration, and resupply missions. The Navy CMV-22 will be replacing the C-2A in the Navy inventory. The V-22 is capable of flying over 2,100 nautical miles with a single refueling, giving the Services the advantage of a V/STOL aircraft able to rapidly self-deploy to any location in the world
