The V-22 epitomizes this sort of tactical flexibility. Prior to joining Boeing, Vehlow served as a colonel in the Army and Army Reserves during a 28-year career that included command and staff assignments in the United States, Korea and Vietnam. I traveled with our Washington Bureau Chief, Nicholas Kernstock, to Boeing's sprawling Philadelphia facility, where we interviewed Vehlow about the V-22 and a wide range of other rotorcraft issues that fall within his purview. Provide a synopsis of exactly where the V-22 program stands now. The total military requirement is for 458 V-22 Ospreys.
Osprey production is on schedule and on cost.
We now have four production prototypes that we're testing. We've accumulated about 1,000 hours of testing. We're pleased with the way the testing is going forward. Based on what we're hearing from international customers, there will be multiple opportunities to sell the V-22 beyond our strong domestic base. There are commercial applications out there, too.
