CommentDouble double-X, triple-X plus one ? More silliness or are we seeing a trend ? And surely this machine screams : "Look at me !". Never saw one of those near here and as with the triple-X MC-130J you have to wonder : where did it come from ? It's not the kind of machine you fly in from Germany or fly to Germany from the States, so I suspect there's a USSOCOM vessel in the Tyrrhenian Sea somewhere. You also have to wonder why send one aircraft to Crete and another to Sicily ? Why send any at all ? And if you're going to send one, why an Osprey ? Showing off ?
