The Air Force Special Operations Command will begin receiving the modified Marine Corps MV-22's in 2002, with full operational capability scheduled for 2010. The CV-22 will replace 89 various Special Operations C-130s and helicopters. Historically, there is a tendency to use new weapons systems in a role that others had previously performed, even if the capabilities are not identical. This does not always take advantage of what may be a new system's unique capabilities. The purpose of this paper is to examine some of the doctrinal issues that arise from the addition of the CV-22 to the SOF arsenal; to look at some historical data on cases where similar evaluations were called for and consider their results; and to consider what measures are being discussed or proposed currently.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Biblioscholar","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47573153939607,"sku":"9781288281886","price":5099.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781288281886.webp?v=1774892097","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-special-osprey-impact-on-special-operations-doctrine-9781288281886","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
