Summary
Armed Forces of the Philippines members, along with U.S. Marines and sailors, and volunteers offload relief supplies from an MV-22B Osprey assigned to Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 265, deployed with 3D Marine Expeditionary Brigade, in support of Joint Task Force 505, at Guiuan Airfield, Philippines, Nov. 21, 2013, during Operation Damayan. The Osprey provides a unique capability in this type of operation due to its vertical take-off and landing capabilities and its ability to convert quickly to fixed wing configuration giving it increased speed and range over traditional rotary wing aircraft.
