Pentagon puts in order for Textron’s Osprey
A 60-page memorandum approved by U.S. Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England last month approved Navy and Air Force plans to buy as many as 35 V-22 tilt-rotor aircraft each year through 2013.
The Navy will request money for 171 aircraft, 25 aircraft less than last year's plan. The Air Force will get 31 aircraft.
