US military grounds entire Osprey tiltrotor fleet
Briefly

The decision to ground the V-22 Osprey fleet was made out of an abundance of caution after a precautionary landing, emphasizing crew safety as the top priority.
The V-22's tiltrotor design offers significant advantages but has gained a reputation for unreliability, with incidents leading to safety concerns and grounding decisions.
Despite a reduction in flying hours, serious incidents involving the V-22 Osprey have risen significantly, highlighting ongoing safety issues with the aircraft.
The recent grounding follows a year after a fatal crash that killed eight, pointing to systemic problems with the V-22's complex design and performance.
