Default Bell asked to come up with a tilt-rotor gunship to escort V-22s

http://dallas.bizjournals.com/dallas...05/daily3.html

Gee, if only we had a fighter aircraft with the range, speed and S/VTOL
abilities of the V-22 that could deploy from the same ships to replace the
Harrier and escort the Osprey.

It would be nice if it were stealthy and supersonic too. ;-)

And oh yeah, make sure it has lots of common parts with Air Force and Navy
aircraft also.
