FSX Fleet Weapons School

The mission of the FSX Fleet Weapons School or Weapons School, is to teach instructor level courses, which provide the FSX Fleets most advanced training in weapons and tactics employment to officers of the combat air forces.

These instructors will be looked upon by other Fleet members as the tactical expert in their airframe. Graduates of the Air Force Weapons School are easy to spot. They  are followed by yellow-and-black bull's eye/crosshair patches that read "graduate" on the top and "Air Force Weapons School" across the bottom.  This “patch” identifies our graduates and gives them instant credibility.  Some say we need a catchy moniker, like Top Gun. But that's not our style. We would rather be known in terms of our value to the Air Force.

After we slap a patch on these students, they return to their units and become chief instructor pilots for flying and setting up academics. They are the technical experts. They advise their commanders on weapon systems and tactics. They are role models, too. They set standards for excellence in the air and on the ground. Getting to the school is as difficult as the coursework. Prospective students must be nominated by their commanders. They must meet minimum requirements for flying hours in their particular aircraft, including time as an instructor pilot.

The syllabus for flying builds from simple 1-v-1 aerial engagements and basic bombing missions to intricately planned and coordinated attacks on ground targets defended by large packages of adversary aircraft, helicopters, ground forces, and ground-based defense systems.
