BREAKING: Universal Stainless and Alloy Products (NASDAQ:$USAP) is reportedly behind the deadly crash of a USAF Osprey in Japan last year.
@hntrbrkmedia found glaring issues in Universal's operation, which supplies steel to major aircraft manufacturers including Boeing.
On the 29th of November, 2023, a U.S. Air Force CV-22B Osprey, callsign Gundam 22, suddenly crashed into the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Yakushima Island, Japan. All eight crewmembers were killed in the impact.
After a series of onboard alerts, the Osprey had taken an emergency diversion and was on final approach when a critical gear in its left-hand Proprotor Gearbox (PRGB) shattered, stalling the left engine and sending the aircraft tumbling 800 feet down into the Pacific.
