One of the development MV-22B Ospreys sits outside, exposed to elements. It has been withdrawn from use and sits with several other Ospreys in open storage. - Photo taken at Jacksonville - New River Marine Corps Air Station (McCutcheon Field) (NCA / KNCA) in North Carolina, USA on May 14, 2011.
I'm a bit surprised that some are already withdrawn from service. Why is that, these airframe are not that old... And what are the result of the V-22 in operation ? Does some of you have some good information about it ?
cheers

It could be that they will be updated in due course to be pressed into service if there should be a need for them.
A good example of pre-production aircraft being witdrawn were the three Nimrod MRA-4's wich were used for testing etc. These were stored and were not intended to be used.
But now the Nimrod is also gone....
