Photos: Two Osprey Aircraft At Bermuda Airport
Two Osprey aircraft landed at the LF Wade International Airport today [Dec 12] with the reason for their visit unclear, however it is not unusual for military aircraft to stop off in Bermuda while en-route to other destinations.
In describing the plane, the US Air Force website says, “The CV-22 Osprey is a tiltrotor aircraft that combines the vertical takeoff, hover and vertical landing qualities of a helicopter with the long-range, fuel efficiency and speed characteristics of a turboprop aircraft. Its mission is to conduct long-range infiltration, exfiltration and resupply missions for special operations forces.”

Must be a Carrier in the area or a Amphibious vessel.
They don’t have much range.
Nope they flew here from north carolina and they do have a good range. Flew in one a few times back in afghanistan
Terry, the CV22 has a range of 1,000 miles which means they can fly from here to the east coast of the US. They can also be refueled in flight.
That was not my point.
Anyone can google.
