Wear the pride of Naval Aviation's airborne warriors.

This premium t-shirt honors Aviation Warfare Systems Operators (AW)—the highly trained Naval Aircrewmen who operate advanced sensors, weapons systems, and mission equipment aboard Navy aircraft. For those who served as AWs or support Naval Aviation, this is your tribute.

The Aviation Warfare Systems Operator Rating
Aviation Warfare Systems Operators are the tactical experts aboard Navy aircraft, responsible for operating sophisticated radar, sonar, electronic warfare systems, and weapons platforms that enable mission success. AWs serve as sensor operators, tactical coordinators, and weapons system operators on a wide range of aircraft including P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft, E-2 Hawkeye airborne early warning aircraft, MH-60R/S helicopters, and other mission-critical platforms.

Mission-Critical Expertise
Whether hunting submarines in the depths, tracking surface threats, conducting search and rescue operations, or providing airborne early warning for the fleet, Aviation Warfare Systems Operators combine technical expertise with tactical acumen. AWs operate advanced acoustic sensors for anti-submarine warfare, manage electronic surveillance equipment, coordinate tactical communications, and employ weapons systems to neutralize threats. Their work directly enables the Navy's ability to maintain maritime superiority and project power worldwide.

Aircrewman Heritage
As Naval Aircrewmen, AWs are qualified aviation professionals who fly operational missions in demanding environments—from low-level maritime patrol over open ocean to tactical operations in contested airspace. They maintain proficiency in aircraft systems, emergency procedures, and survival techniques while executing the complex missions that keep the fleet safe and America's interests secure.
