A U.S. Marine Corps UH-1Y Venom helicopter assigned to Marine Aviation Weapons and Tactics Squadron One (MAWTS-1), flies over Marines and Sailors assigned to 3rd Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, during Assault Support Tactics 2 (AST-2), part of Weapons and Tactics Instructor (WTI) course 2-23 at Observation Point Feets, Chocolate Mountain Aerial Gunnery Range, California, April 12, 2023. WTI, hosted by MAWTS-1, is a seven-week course providing standardized advanced tactical training and certification of unit instructor qualifications to support Marine aviation training and readiness. AST-2 is a daytime, force-on-force event which affords prospective WTIs the opportunity to plan, brief, and execute a company-reinforced air assault while integrating the six functions of Marine Aviation.
