The carrier-specific CMV-22 variant of the Osprey, which the Navy started using in 2021, is currently only deployed on the aircraft carrier Carl Vinson. The Navy considers the Osprey a critical component of its future air wing and plans to continue adding new platforms and capabilities to its carrier air wings over the next decade.
