V-22 Product Improvements addresses requirements necessary to meet the aircraft capabilities specified in the approved Capability Development Document. Efforts included in this Project provide near and long-term improvements to the fleet, addressing deficiencies, systems safety, obsolescence, readiness, reliability, supportability, and relevance in any designated battlespace. Efforts include hardware and software development associated with increased performance capability, avionics upgrades and improvements, increased system processing capability, and the integration with other organic and non-organic systems.
