There have been alot more than four crashes when it comes to the osprey mate, u need to check your research, its not a completely new type of aircraft either, the principle and technology is quite old.Liquid_Cow wrote:There have only been 4 crashes of a V-22, the last one was back in Dec of 2000. Unfortunately, one of the crashes happened in DC in front of a crowd of Congressmen which made for particularly bad press.
When you consider that this truely is a whole new type of aircraft, 4 crashes over the span of 9 years is not really bad (first crash was 1991). Consider the crash record of the F-14 who's first crash came 2 days after its first flight. If the USN had given up on the Tomcat for just 4 crashes it would have never made it to production (all 5 prototypes would end up crashing before the first deployment).
Regardless of who made this model, bring it on! USMC needs a realistic transport and the Osprey is it!!!
I do actually like the Osprey it does look the part but it suffers from the same problem of any VTOL aircraft... Stability and unfortunatly unlike the Harrier and F-35 the displacement/size prevents it from having any quick fix, for instance i believe it is still incapable of take off/landing on a carrier in high wind, for a plane which was originally designed for naval purposes its a bit of a draw back but......... as i said earlier they should have got us brits in to give em a hand, it might of turned out better given our track history when it comes to such aircraft lol
As for the comparison with concorde, no you cant compare military and civilian aircraft but if u where concorde is 100 times better than the osprey, yes there may have only been a small number of them BUT its 50 years old and still unmatched in its area of transportation, until its crash it had the best flight record of ANY aircraft in the world so.....

Wait, your signature claims you to be a Tournament Admin, so wouldn't you have used this at one point, or are you a liar or a Tourny Admin for some other Tournament that doesn't use that?Hitperson wrote:I WANT TO SEE THE ADMIN BIRD!!![]()

That admin choper should be used by server admins in a match.
With certainly properties:
Such invulnerabilities to rockets and any weapon;
Laser Guided missiles(for BunnyHoppers and ArmoredWhores), Laser Guided Ban Missiles/ Infra Red WallHack-RedDot Detector and to finish a ultra powerfull speaker that laugh "Ah-Ha" over the battlefield.

Nice video. I cant wait till they get it to work 100%. Nice work DEVs!!!!!!!! But not that there is anything wrong with the osprey but i would much more love to see the MH-53J Pave Low III only because when i think marine helos for some reason i think of that bird. I love that chopper!! I do believe there is already a WIP in the media section on this baby so i hope to see that too.
EDIT: I just checked the media section and there is no Pave Low there. But i know i remember seeing one. Maybe it was a different mod....but i doubt it.
