I think most of the negative press is political.
Admittedly it is unusual for a transport to have the cutting edge
technology that the Osprey has, but it IS new technology.
It certainly has teething problems, but that is inherent in new tech.
Look at how long the F-22 has been in development. I think when early
teething problems caused a drop in funding, this was detrimental to
getting the bugs out quickly.
The Harrier went through very similar teething problems and IT was
almost cancelled also.
The CH-46 that the opponents want to just keep using is not the most
reliable thing around anymore either.
