An MV-22B Osprey tiltrotor aircraft flies over the open sea between Iwo To and Chichi Jima, Japan, July 29. The Osprey flew to Iwo To and Chichi Jima to demonstrate the far-reaching and quick response capabilities of the aircraft. Given the capabilities of the MV-22B Osprey, which have been consistently demonstrated during humanitarian assistance and disaster relief operations and exercises around the Asia-Pacific, it provides a reliable and effective means for response to future medical or humanitarian and relief needs for remote locations throughout Japan. The Osprey and crew are with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 265, Marine Aircraft Group 36, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force.
