Although there are no perfect survivability systems out there, the systems on the Osprey are 1) more numerous and 2) more advanced, than the survivability systems on the CH-46 SNIP If it has a cobra escort..

The Cobras launch from a forward base and meet at the LZ with the Osprey which has travelled from a base further away. BB
