What do you mean? The osprey is an aircraft that takes off by angling thrust downward, and then slowly angling it back to pick up speed and fly like a normal aircraft. A harrier does the same, only the harrier uses thrust nozzles, and the osprey rotates the entire engine. I have no idea how it stabilizes.
The US Marines use the Osprey.
The V22 Osprey was designed by Bell-Boeing aircraft. Bell and Boeing combined together and teamed up to design this military aircraft. The joint efforts of these companies led to the design and development of the V22 Osprey.
The V-22 Osprey, a tiltrotor aircraft developed by Bell Helicopter and Boeing, had its first flight on March 19, 1989. It was officially introduced into service with the U.S. Marine Corps in 2007. The Osprey combines the vertical lift capability of a helicopter with the speed and range of a fixed-wing aircraft.
The USMC have been using the Osprey since 2007, Their 'flight readiness ' rate is improving all the time and Marines love this aircraft.
The cost of a CV-22 Osprey is approximately $70 million to $80 million per aircraft, depending on specific configurations and additional equipment. This price reflects the advanced technology and capabilities of the Osprey, which combines the functionality of a helicopter and a fixed-wing aircraft. Additionally, costs can vary based on procurement contracts and modifications for specific missions.
The V22 Osprey is an American Bell Boeing airplane. It was officially created in January 1985. It has had a rough past with a mix of successes and failures, but improvements have been done.
The coefficient of lift of the V-22 Osprey aircraft varies depending on its flight conditions and configuration. However, typical values range between 0.5 and 1.0.

The V-22 Osprey, a tiltrotor military aircraft, was developed by Bell Helicopter and Boeing. Its first flight took place on March 19, 1989. The aircraft was introduced into service with the United States Marine Corps in 2007, following a lengthy development process that included numerous design changes and testing phases.
The 'Osprey' has a pair of tilt-rotor propellers. Configured with one propeller on each wing, the rotors can then 'tilt' from the vertical position to the horizontal position, allowing the craft to hover or land an take-off vertically, like a helicopter. Answer: The fact that it's the only (first) tilt-rotor aircraft to enter service. The concept itself was tried and tested on numerous previous aircraft dating back to at least 1942.
