The agreement with Boeing and Bell Helicopter announced Friday includes 39 of a new Navy variant of the V-22 Osprey aircraft, called the CMV-22B, that would land on the massive ship decks and would transport people and supplies. The job is now handled by C-2A Greyhound turboprop aircraft that use the carrier's catapult and arresting gear to take off and land.

Nice share. The Army, not to be outdone is going for the Bell 280 valor as it's rotating-wing aircraft of choice. At least in Prototype/Demonstrator phases:

The Bell V-280 Valor provides warfighters strategic options, operational reach, tactical agility and overmatch at the point of decision.
