Naval 航空 is renowned for the demands it places upon its flyers. 技能和 concentration required to land a high performance jet on board an aircraft carrier deck pitching in the black of night, or to track a submarine while 飞行 at only a few feet above stormy seas, are linked to a solid academic background and top physical 调节. There is more to it than that; it requires a combination of talents and dedication that many people possess, but few are challenged to use to full measure.
NROTC graduates are selected for flight training during their final year of school based on their grade point average, 航空 Selection Test Battery (ASTB-E) scores, 以及他们的身体素质. 毕业后，学生将收到命令 到彭萨科拉海军航空站报到. 飞行训练的评论开始与 the Introductory Flight Screening (IFS) program.
IFS is a highly structured, fast paced course designed to provide initial aviation exposure and identify students that are aviation adaptable. IFS分为两个部分 parts: an online internet ground school portion and a 飞行 portion at an assigned 固定运营商.) The ground school portion is taught through Jeppesen online 需要两周才能完成. Students will be expected to complete all their online modules in order to pass the 4 exams that will occur in the ground portion. Upon completion of the ground portion, students will fly a total of eleven flights which culminate into a successful check ride and solo.
After succesful completion of IFS, the students begin the 航空 Pre-Flight Indoctrination (API). This course involves academic training in aerodynamics, engineering, air navigation, aviation physiology, and water survival, as well as physically challenging practical applications of physiology and water survival training.
Upon completion of API, a Student Naval Aviator (SNA) is assigned to one of five navy training squadrons for primary flight training using the T-6B Texan II JPATS. 主要的 flight training includes the basics of contact, instrument, formation, and aerobatic 飞行. After successful completion of primary training, student aviators are selected for their community pipeline and move on to the intermediate phase. 选择是基于 on personal preference, individual flight performance, and the needs of the service 在那个时间点.
Student pilots will be selected for one of five pipelines:
- 打击(战术喷气机)
- E-2/C-2
- 海上
- E-6
- 旋翼(直升机)
Upon completion of their intermediate training, SNAs are awarded their wings and proceed to specific Fleet Readiness Squadrons for specialized training in their aircraft, either fixed wing (including the F/A-18 Hornet, E/A-18 Growler, F-35 Lightning II, P-3 Orion, P-8 Poseidon, C-130 Hercules, E-2 Hawkeye, C-2 Greyhound, E-6 Mercury, V-22 Osprey) or rotary wing (MH-60 Seahawk, H-53 Sea Stallion, UH-1 Iroquois, AH-1 眼镜蛇).
海军飞行军官
Upon completion of API, Student 海军飞行军官s (SNFOs) report to the NFO training 佛罗里达彭萨科拉的VT-10中队. VT-10是美国最大的训练中队 the Naval Air 培训 Command providing fourteen weeks of intense training using the The T-6A Texan II is a tandem-seat, turboprop trainer. 学生学习视觉飞行 rules and basic airmanship while accumulating an average of twenty-two hours of flight 飞行时间超过8次. Additionally, they go through an extremely extensive ground syllabus concentrating on navigation and aircraft electronic systems. 飞行模拟器 也被广泛使用.
After the successful completion of primary flight training, SNFOs proceed to tactical navigation intermediate training which may be continued in VT-86 at Pensacola, Florida or Naval Air Station Jacksonville VP-30 located in Jacksonville, Florida. 培训 will include flight time in the T-6, the T-39N, a multiplace twin-jet operated by civilian contractors, or the T-1A Jayhawk, a multiplace twin jet.
Those selected for training at VP-30 will fly an average of eighty additional hours in the Lockheed P-3C Orion or the Boeing P-8 Poseidon developing skills in long range, over-water navigation using inertial, and radio navigation. 22周后， SNFOs are awarded their wings and proceed to Fleet Readiness Squadrons to train for navigator slots for the P-3C Orion patrol plane, P-8 Poseidon or the EP-3 Aries electronic 侦察机. Those not selected to join the joint Air Force training squadron will remain in Pensacola in VT-86 for an additional fourteen weeks of training including fifty additional flight hours in the T-39N, a multiplace twin-jet operated by civilian contractors, or the T-1A Jayhawk, a multiplace twin jet. 完成中间体的snfo training will be selected for one of three training pipelines: Strike, Strike/Fighter, 或航空战术数据系统.
