MV-22 Ospreys Could Be Next to Get F-35’s Precision Landing System
 

Posted By: Hope Hodge Seck June 21, 2017

SALON DU BOURGET, Paris — The system that helps the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter achieve safe and precise landings in any weather could be coming next to the Marine Corps’ prized tiltrotor MV-22 Osprey.

The Raytheon-built Joint Precision Approach and Landing Systems, or JPALS, is a GPS-based system that triangulates between an aircraft and pieces of hardware on a ship or landing zone to create a cyber link as far as 200 nautical miles out.
