Long-time critics of the V-22 program are again trying to go after the program, seeking now not to terminate it but merely truncate the production run and substitute for the Osprey slower and less capable aircraft. This is ironic since both the Marine Corps and the Air Force would like to see production of the V-22 increase.Substitute the F-35 for the V-22 and you see history repeating itself. Its funny too. The same supporters of additional F-22's, the A-330 tanker and cutting the V-22 are all opposed to the F-35.
Amazing.
