Marine Corps Aviation

Marine Corps Aviation is a vital part of the U.S. Marine Corps that uses aircraft to support combat, transport troops, and conduct reconnaissance. It includes fighter jets, helicopters, and surveillance planes, providing versatility for various military missions. Marines trained as aviators operate these aircraft, working closely with ground forces to deliver firepower, gather intelligence, and ensure quick mobility in both combat and humanitarian efforts. Their goal is to enhance Marine Corps operations by integrating aviation capabilities seamlessly into broader military strategies, making them a flexible and vital component of joint military success.
