Desktop trainers display naval aviation's new carrier-based joint air training program in a lab at the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division near its Patuxent River, Maryland headquarters on July 31, 2024. The training system, called Simulators at Sea, is designed to train aviators onboard carriers for joint missions while deployed and features connected simulators for aviators who fly F-35C Lightning II, F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet, EA-18G Growler, and E-2D Hawkeye. Simulators at Sea will enable carrier air wings to rehearse joint flight scenarios at a scale not previously possible as some air tactics are risky, flight operations can be expensive, and open-air rehearsal puts Navy tactics on display for adversaries.
