Wow ! you mean a V-22 Osprey came in to WSAP ?
all the while I thought he is talking about the 140 Squadron "Osprey".

 

[erkuan]

share with all an early bird...

 

[buhweet]

capture the aircraft standing on the street pointing to the sky, didn't ask the pilot to pose for me.

(I know this post is way long overdue , but i just noticed this)

Did anyone realise that A/C# 8317 is sans CFT (FAST pack)??
BTW is the 'MudHen' still able to carry 4 x AMRAAMs with the CFT (FAST pack) attached??
Or is the air to air armament restricted to the underwing pylon?

Yes, the Strike Eagle can carry 2 AIM-120 AMRAAMs on each long CFT pylon. They would need to be mounted using LAU-106 launchers.

Is it somewhat related about the Commando Sling ops?

Seen somewhere it's held 4 times per year in WSAP.

Wondering where did they fly in from, there must be a LHD around..
