A U.S. Air Force CV-22B Osprey tiltrotor aircraft is photographed in flight during an air-to-air sortie at USAFE Days 2023. Assigned to Air Force Special Operations Command, the CV-22B provides rapid insertion and extraction capabilities for specialized missions. The aircraft features a composite airframe and a tiltrotor system powered by two Rolls-Royce AE 1107C turboshaft engines. This design allows operations from austere locations while maintaining greater range and speed than conventional helicopters.
