That aircraft is a menace. It killed a friend and ROTC unit-mate of mine early in its service life. I would under no circumstances be eager to ride in one.
Time to rethink V/STOL military aviation and go with safer, better proven technologies.
My brother the former Marine, despises these things. Had several buddies die in separate crashes.
But there is a FReeper or 2 roaming around that will defend them for some reason.
