This is 45 minutes of must-see video on the Osprey.
A few minor quibbles. Omitted in the history was USMC fudging maintenance records.
Other than that though, very informative.
What I like to see is the tribal knowledge and experience of the maintenance crews. That is make or break and it is present in this video.
The other part of the video shows the aircraft tied down having to mingle with slower airframes like the attack helicopters.
I believe in part this is why the KC-130J Harvest Hawk (not shown in this video) is needed. It would provide firepower, endurance and some speed to offer better support over range. And of course tanking.
