Thanks for all the comments, I took quite a lot of pictures during the deployment so I'll be putting up more, hopefully you'll like them too.

James: it is used by the US Marines as a troop and cargo transport. Although it lands and takes off like a helicopter, as shown, the engines then rotate through 90 degrees so that it flies like a regular aircraft. It can fly alot faster and further than a helicopter but still land in small places.
