AWV - Naval Aircrewman Avionics

Few know what mystery lies in the depths of the sea—you can be one of them as a Naval Aircrewman Avionics (AWV).

As an AWV, you’ll use advanced sonar technology to detect, analyze and classify submarines. You’ll also fly with a fixed wing integrated tactical aircrew while operating aerial photographic equipment to uncover what threats lurk in the deep. Then, you’ll communicate your findings with larger teams, including joint special warfare operations where you could potentially conduct weapons delivery in support of their tactical missions.

Though you’ll perform in-flight and ground duties, you’re not just a tech working on a military aircraft. As an AWV, you’re our eyes in the sky.
