That's true, although the image they use is cropped and facing the wrong way. No Greg I have that pic all the way from Sept 2008 that's similar but not exact. Hmm, puzzling.
Anyway, in my search I stumbled across something, I saved a Wikipedia entry regarding Dale Brown's fictional aircraft, specifically the MV-32.
"The MV-32 is the advanced version of the V-22 tilt-rotor aircraft. The traditional propellers found on the V-22 are replaced by advanced jet engines. It fires navalized versions of the FIM-92 Stinger and has two cannon pods, with a 20 mm Gatling gun under the nose. The MV-32 has enhanced range and speed over the V-22 and is traditional used in Tin Man support operations."
So Jet lift?
Instead perhaps some form of Un-ducted fan? or like an extended/enlarged A400M / An-70 style prop?
Can the transmission handle more than three blades thereby reducing the prop/rotor arc?
Or attach the wing to a different fuselage.
Or even search through the whole thread an see what else had been posted.
