Default The Osprey Goes to War

Saying that the Osprey and Cobras can fly from different fields and
meet up violates the KISS rule. Their is a tremendous amount of
coordination involved in a troop lift. Implicit in what you are
saying is that the different units would not be able to attend the
same brief before they launch.


And yet different aircraft types all over the world fly from different
fields and meet up in a point in space and time daily. You're so
focused on making things fit the KISS rule that you're overlooking the
reality of combat aviation for the past...oh, let's be generous and
say 50 years. That's about how long routine air-to-air refueling has
been occurring, right?
