The NA 33rd is organized under three Wings: the 26th Air Force, the 6th Carrier Wing, and the 17th Whirling Scourge. Flight operations reinforce the need for coordination between all aircraft in the AO. This is facilitated through live GCI and Strike Command in every mission.

The highest level of command at the NA 33rd consists of the Commanding Officer, Executive Officer, Staff Officer, Head Drill Instructor, Field Specialist (team is responsible for mission creation and enhancement), Training Specialist, and Public Information Administrator. Drilling down through the Navy, Air Force, and Rotary platoons, promotion opportunities also exist as Platoon Commander, Squadron Lead, and Flight lead. Under the watchful eye of the HDI, a staff of highly-qualified Drill Instructors conduct Basic Badge requirements with new recruits, as well as more Advanced Badge qualifications as needed. Finally, Server Administrator and Technician roles ensure the continued health of the four DCS instances operating under TAW DCS NA batallion. Those folks willing to contribute to a thriving community of DCS enthusiasts will always have ample opportunities at TAW.

AJS-37 Viggen

The 73rd Attack Squadron focuses on precision and planned strikes. Nicknamed Gremlins, these pilots clip trees at high speeds with the AJS 37 Viggen. Like a bolt of lightning the Gremlins strike and are gone in a flash. Focusing on entrenched targets, runways and ships the Gremlins bring an extra punch to the fight. When needed, the Gremlins ride the tip of the spear as the eyes of the NA 33rd Battalion with reconnaissance missions.

F-16C Viper

The Dragons roll in to the AO flying the venerable F-16C Viper. Whether the mission calls for Air to Air or Air to Ground, the Viper gets the job done. As weapons and systems come on line, you can be sure this squadron will become an integral part of the NA 33rd Battalion.

F-15C Eagle

The airframe called upon by the Air Force for the most demanding A2A encounters, the F-15C Eagle is the scalpel, the Death Rattlers being the hand that inflicts the damage. Rattlers are stationed at various airfields around the Caucasus and Persian Gulf theatres of operation.

A-10C Warthog

Punishers’ tool of choice for Close Air Support missions is the A-10C Warthog. Under the protection of the CAP flights, the Punishers support rotary mission objectives by raining down terror with their massive weapons loadouts, as well as the ‘brrrrrrrrttt’.

The Mission of the Naval Air Wing is to proficiently operate strike fighters based on the Carrier, providing a high degree of theatre wide mobility and increasing the striking distance of the NA 33rd. The Air Wing enables defense of the fleet through CAP, long range intercepts, and anti-ship strikes to ensure unimpeded freedom of navigation of ships and aircraft in ocean and coastal areas. The Wing is capable of conducting strikes on strategic and tactical targets deep into enemy territory while providing its own escort and SEAD flights and will also stay proficient in supporting CAS requirements. Our mandate is that the entire Navy team works together towards this common goal, and at the end of the mission we all safely return to the ship together.”
