  10. New Operational Perspectives • Performs current missions more effectively - increased success rate • Performs current missions with less assets - reduced force structure/cost • Performs new missions unachievable with legacy platforms - growth NOT A HELICOPTER NOT AN AIRPLANE Paradigm shift required to fully benefit from V-22’s unique capabilities

  11. New Ownership Perspectives Platform Life Cycle Costs - Development & Qualification - Fly-away/Initial Spares - Operation & Support for 10,000+ flight hours Procurement Focus Mission Costs - Deployment/Re-deployment - Fixed wing & helo support - Tanker support - Ship movement Infrastructure - Bases and facility support - Manpower - Environmental implications Intangibles - Political - Multi-mission flexibility - Principles of War enabler Total Budget Focus Tiltrotor Cost and Risk Avoidance Increased Mission Success at Lower Total Mission Cost

  12. Training System Foundation FAA Level D simulator Networked to High Level architecture Curriculum driven approach Directly supports warfighter through mission-linked tactical flight training Standardizes training methods Reduces time and cost of training Reduces required number of aircraft & flight hours for training Increases number of aircraft available for operational missions World-Class TrainingMCAS NEW RIVER AND KIRTLAND AFB High Impact, Networked Training - Today

  14. Demonstrated Terminal Area Operations New tactics, techniques and procedures developed daily for a new way to fly

  15. Demonstrated Operational Utility

  16. Demonstrated Shipboard Compatibility

  17. Operation Iraqi FreedomOct 2007 - Apr 2009 10,000 flight hours - 6,000 sorties - 45,000 passengers “I could dominate [Al Anbar Province] because I had V-22s… I couldn’t do what I did with just helicopters.” MGen Kelly, CG MNF-W “Turns Texas into Rhode Island.” BGen Alles, CG ACE MNF-W

  18. General support, direct action raids, deliberate assault, resupply, and CASEVAC at ranges un-executable by legacy assets. V-22 is shrinking the battlespace Operation Enduring FreedomNov 2009 - present “4 MV-22B's hit two separate zones simultaneously on the southern end of the town. The two MV's came out of the sun and they couldn't see them or hear them until they were right on top of them--less than 30 seconds out.” - Marine Forward Air Controller

  19. Marine Expeditionary UnitsMay 2009 - present “The V-22 can reach the fight and be effective in the fight like no other aircraft that has ever been embarked on these ships. And in doing so, it enhances the ship’s ability to contribute to those missions.” - Commanding Officer, USS Bataan

  20. Humanitarian Assistance/Disaster Relief: Haiti, Jan 2010 Operation Unified Response • “…the speed of the Osprey allows us to land multiple teams in areas all throughout Northern Haiti, leave them there with enough time to get a good assessment and retrieve all these teams before nightfall - only using two Ospreys.” • Capt Robert Shuford, 24thMarine Expeditionary Unit

  21. 6 CV-22s • 7,000nm self-deployment in 6 days from Florida to Iraq • 45 Direct Action missions - all to formation brown-out landings • 123 Combat Support Missions – 30,250 lbs of cargo • 2349 Passengers/Assaulters • Supported separate long-range National contingency mission; 455 nm from FSB to target = IDEAL PLATFORM! Operation Iraqi Freedom Jul-Nov 09 “The CV-22 is an extremely stable platform and its inherent navigation system and heads down display symbology lend itself well to the mission set” - 8 SOS/CC

  22. 5 CVs deployed via commercial sea lift • 875 sorties – 928 hours • 72 Direct Action missions - all to formation LVAs • 42 Combat Support Missions – 87,433 lbs of cargo • 4,829 Assaulters/Passengers • 284 potential terrorists in custody Operation Enduring Freedom Apr – Oct 10

  23. Where We Are Headed

  24. Lessons Learned • Design - As programs move through acquisition phases, ratio of assumption-to-knowledge is dependent on technological predecessors. (V-22 is first of type) • Operation – Community starts with what they know (fly tiltrotors like helicopters) • Reliability - Small percentage of components have lower than expected reliability • Normal Fleet introduction issues amplified by combat & deployments • Sparing and supplier capacity based on optimistic predictions • Unforeseen failure rates impact readiness and operating costs V-22 has a higher assumption-to-knowledge ratio than any recently fielded platform

  25. RCM/Sustained Maintenance Planning

  26. V-22 Key Improvement Areas • Maintainability • Improve troubleshooting to reduce "Could Not Duplicate" gripes • Improve aircraft “grooming” techniques for preventative maintenance • Supply Support • Execute a contracting strategy required to incentivize support • Appropriately-scoped PBL and selected break-outs direct to suppliers • Improve Velocity and Capacity of Production/Repair • Improve test/check/repair capability closer to the flightline • Core Reliability • Increase Component Reliability (e.g. generator, air valves) • Increase System and Functional Reliability and Robustness (e.g. power plant, wiring, nacelle cooling) Making V-22 As Ready and Affordable as it is Effective and Survivable
