Naval Aviation

Naval aviation is a dynamic and specialized branch of military aviation that operates aircraft from naval ships at sea. Naval aviators, both officers and enlisted personnel, are trained to fly a variety of aircraft, including fighter jets, helicopters, reconnaissance planes, and transport planes, which are crucial for both offensive and defensive naval operations.

Naval aviators are responsible for a range of missions, including air superiority, close air support, anti-submarine warfare, search and rescue operations, and electronic warfare. They work closely with surface and submarine forces, providing air cover and support for naval operations worldwide.
