In November 2003, the V-22 Osprey program began testing the aircraft's deicing and anti-icing systems in Canada. An advanced version of the Groundhog(R), the RTWIN(TM)(Roadway Traffic and Weather Information Networks), measures road surface conditions such as temperature and can be used in conjunction with highway anti-icing systems. Aircraft 9002 is deployed to evaluate and test all onboard systems, and is presently engaged in pressurization, environmental control system and anti-icing systems testing. |
