NAWCAD's training program in development for the Marine Corps officers who oversee the safe launches and landings on carriers is expanding internationally.
The training will will provide interim training for the Marine Corps’ Short-Takeoff and Vertical Landing (STOVL) Landing Signal Officers (LSOs) after the Training and Education Command approved creation of a permanent school in late 2025.
This milestone marks a critical step in addressing the growing demand for STOVL LSOs as F-35B operations expand across the fleet and allied partners.
