The V-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft equipped by the US ** team is known for its fast navigation and immediate take-off and landing, and has become its right-hand man in air operations. However, the safety of this aircraft has recently become the focus of public discussion, especially since its successive fatal accidents have touched the nerves of the world. The latest reports point out that the U.S. military V-22 Osprey stationed in Japan suffered another crash, which is also the first fatal crash of the aircraft in Japan. Before the CV-22 crashed off Kagoshima, there were warnings that the engine was on fire, and there have been many similar crashes in the past with no precursors of engine failure.
At a U.S. military base in Japan, the V-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft, mainly from the U.S. Air Force and Marine Corps, crashed the Air Force's CV-22 model. According to US information, despite the rapid launch of a large-scale search and rescue work, all eight core members of the plane have died. The casualties included officers of the 353rd Special Operations Wing and the 21st Special Operations Squadron of the Air Force, as well as medical personnel of the 1st Special Operations Squadron and combat personnel of the 43rd Intelligence Squadron of the 363rd Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance Wing.
After the crash, the U.S. military immediately grounded the CV-22 Osprey aircraft, but not all aircraft of the same type followed this order, and some V-22 Ospreys were still on duty, including the aircraft deployed on the "Carl Vinson" aircraft carrier. At the same time, when the US military suffered a serious accident, not only did not relent, but once again sent the P-8A anti-submarine patrol plane through the Taiwan Strait, which has been common in recent years.
Such frequent crossings of the Taiwan Strait by the United States are undoubtedly a military adventure, and such actions have been rehearsed many times, as if they were trying to react on the edge of a sensitive situation in the Taiwan Strait. This bold posture shows that the US military is trying to assert its military power on the international stage, while ignoring the potential risk of military miscalculation that its actions may cause. On the other hand, the activities of the US military in the Taiwan Strait have also revealed its geopolitical ambition to define the Line of Control.
