    A U.S. Marine Corps MV-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft is on the flight deck of an amphibious assault ship, with rotors spinning in helicopter mode, suggesting it is preparing for takeoff or has just landed. Deck crew members in yellow safety vests are positioned around the aircraft performing flight deck operations. The ship's island superstructure is visible on the left, and the ocean horizon is visible in the background.

    A military tiltrotor aircraft, identifiable as a Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey, is captured in flight departing or approaching a naval vessel's flight deck over open ocean. The rotors are in helicopter mode (tilted upward), with motion blur indicating active rotation. The image is taken from the ship's deck level, with sunlight creating lens flare over the water in the background.
