History

The CMV-22B is the U.S. Navy’s dedicated carrier onboard delivery variant of the V-22 Osprey. It replaces the C-2A Greyhound, offering increased flexibility through its ability to take off and land vertically, removing the need for catapult launch and arrestor gear.

VRM-30 was the first operational squadron to receive the CMV-22B. Operating from bases such as Iwakuni Air Base, these aircraft support fleet logistics and ensure rapid transport capability for carrier strike groups operating worldwide.
