On December 12, local time, CCTV reporters learned that the US Navy investigation determined that the V-22 “Osprey” tilting rotor had numerous safety hazards during its nearly 20 years of service, and that related risks had not been promptly fixed for a long time, causing problems to continue to accumulate. In the past four years, 20 US military personnel have died as a result of this aircraft accident. According to the investigation, the transmission system of the “Osprey” aircraft has two major long-term risks, including key defects that led to the 2022 California crash and the 2023 crash off the coast of Japan. The Joint Project Office failed to effectively manage risk and did not harmonize maintenance standards.
