I thought this trip was all about demonstrating the V-22's ability to
self-deploy?

In this week's transatlantic journey, one of the aircraft made it all
the way to the U.K. with no problems. The other V-22 experienced
"right engine compressor stalls" and made a precautionary landing at a
U.S. military base in Iceland.
