	100th Osprey rolls off assembly line Story by Kimberly Johnson - Staff writer, Marine Corps Times
	The 100th V-22 Osprey to roll off the assembly line was celebrated in Texas on Wednesday. The production milestone, celebrated at the Bell Helicopter Military Aircraft Assembly Center in Amarillo, highlighted the joint partnership between Bell Helicopter and Boeing, said one industry official on hand at the celebration. “They said teaming agreements would never work,” said Gene Cunningham, vice president and director of the joint Bell-Boeing V-22 Program office in Amarillo, according to a statement. Two variants of the tilt-rotor aircraft are under production, for the Marine Corps and Air Force Special Operations Command. The Corps deployed 1`0 MV-22s from Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron-263 — the first to launch for real-world operations — to Iraq this past fall.
