its a good idea in theory, but then it will have the same problems where the osprey has now, (changing from VTOL to normal plane operations) if they manage to fix that then yeah it will be a great idea, AC130 but with VTOL
well the problem is that to change without problems it has to be high enough, cause of an inherent air flow problem when changing, which causes no air flow to hit the prop's
so a VTOL capable version of the AC130? O_o
I think its a new concept... and a good one at that!

I thought they did fix the Osprey, as it is in service now?
It is, the marines love it. Although the project was several years late and way over-budget.
@Hatak95 Name one plane that isn't over budget.

it would work and be super duper
how would the counter rotative effect affect in this design?? Imean the opposite engines compensate their self?
