NATO Virtual operates multiple squadrons under shared SOPs and standards. Choose a unit based on aircraft, mission set, and preferred style of flying.
The 35th Fighter Wing focuses on multirole F-16 operations with structured training, disciplined comms, and consistent mission standards.
Pilots who want a modern fighter with strong flexibility and a training path that builds solid fundamentals.
VMFA-224 is a Marine carrier-capable fighter attack squadron focused on naval aviation, carrier ops, and expeditionary strike missions.
Pilots who enjoy naval aviation, deck procedures, and structured multirole missions from the boat.
Our rotary aviation element is currently being developed, with a dedicated helicopter squadron planned for launch soon. Once operational details are finalised, full information will be released here. If your preferred aircraft isn’t listed within our current squadrons, that doesn’t mean it isn’t supported. NATO Virtual flies across all active DCS modules and continues to expand as pilot interest grows. New squadrons can be formed whenever demand calls for it. We’re also preparing for future aircraft releases, with upcoming units already planned around platforms such as the Eurofighter, Tornado, Rafale, and more. NATO Virtual is built to grow — and every new airframe brings new opportunities.
Both squadrons operate under NATO Virtual SOPs: clear comms, teamwork-first flying, and consistent professionalism. If you’re unsure which squadron fits, apply with a preference — staff can help place you appropriately.
