WTI 2-26: CH-53 Long Range Raid ...Pics by Lance Cpl. Alexander Mantai --- The Army is drinking our milkshake (small rant included)

The US Army is training with MV-22s at JRTC, FT Polk LA. They're getting ready to induct the MV-75 into their ranks and most notably the 101st is leading the way. Want to talk some basic innovation that the Army is already talking about before they get their new rides? They're planning on using unmanned tankers to refuel their new birds in the air. You can bet that for the really long range stuff those tankers will be modified to be ISR platforms and maybe even flex into the attack role. Additionally if they follow the same trend that they have with the UH-60 then you'll see the MV-75 flex into the gunship role too. The total focus of Marine Corps leadership on Force Design 2030 has caused other necessary, damn near obvious solutions fall by the wayside.
