21 SOS, SOAMXS commit to proficiency with CV-22 precautionary landing practice
A U.S. Air Force CV-22 Osprey assigned to the 21st Special Operations Squadron soars above the flight line during precautionary landing practice at Yokota Air Base, Japan, Oct. 7, 2024. The CV-22 is a tiltrotor aircraft that combines vertical takeoff, hover and vertical landing capabilities of a helicopter with the long-range, fuel efficiency and speed of a turboprop aircraft. They support long-range infiltration, exfiltration and resupply missions for special operations forces. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Tristan Truesdell)
