A U.S. Marine Corps CH-53E Super Stallion aircraft, left, and two MV-22B Osprey aircrafts, all assigned to Marine Aviation Weapons and Tactics Squadron One (MAWTS-1), prepare to takeoff during Assault Support Tactics 2 (AST-2), during Weapons and Tactics Instructor (WTI) course 2-23 at Observation Point Feets, Chocolate Mountain Aerial Gunnery Range, California, April 12, 2023. WTI, hosted by MAWTS-1, is a seven-week course providing standardized advanced tactical training and certification of unit instructor qualifications to support Marine aviation training and readiness. AST-2 is a daytime, force-on-force event which affords prospective WTIs the opportunity to plan, brief, and execute a company-reinforced air assault while integrating the six functions of Marine Aviation.
