Hopefully the one the Israelis are getting (the Valor?) doesn’t have the folding wings (Israel has no carriers) and some of the other advantages you’ve mentioned.

No, they're going to get V-22s directly off the Bell Boeing assembly line. The Valor is in the very beginning stages of prototype development and is a smaller aircraft than the V-22, intended as a possible replacement for the UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter.
