Among developments, Marine aviators should see more F-35s, upgraded MV-22 Ospreys, more cargo aircraft and data-enabled predictive maintenance.
Gear and clutch problems in the Osprey have killed more than a dozen troops in recent years, leading to groundings of the tilt-rotor aircraft.
The move comes as part of the Marine Corps' 2025 aviation plan that includes efforts to address Osprey safety concerns.
A cracked gear led to a November 2023 Osprey crash that killed eight airmen. The military is trying to see which Ospreys might risk a similar failure.
