I could write an educated guess on what they do based on the title, but I'd like to be thorough if at all possible. Thanks. In short, you would need to be a CSO first in some sort of MWS and excel at that, then apply to test pilot school.

Pilots operate the aircraft, but it's the Combat Systems Officer (CSO) who gets to actually do the cool stuff. After completing Undergraduate CSO Training (UCT), they become a Weapons Systems...

2019年1月6日 · Build the basics of a NFO, then track them to their community (in my day is was RIO training track, Over water Nav, and Attack A-6-EA-6B types). We all had core Air and low level nav fundementals we all had to do in advanced training, but with a trend toward your speciality. ATIS.

2019年1月3日 · The change yielded 85 days of fundamental training with exposure to core CSO skillsets and then up to 143 specialized training days more for WSOs, 88 more days for navigators and sensor operators, and 91 more days for EWOs. The increased specialized training reset the baseline for what CSOs believe are the fundamentals needed to be ready to fight.
