Hi all,
Do squadrons care about your scores on the AFOQT that DON’T apply to your pilot score? I have only studied math knowledge, table reading, instrument comprehension, block counting and aviation info cause those are the only sections counting to my pilot score.
Wanted to make sure they do not look down on that/only care about pilot scores as…

@hammer8 Great question! The Pilot score is undoubtedly the most crucial score. (The golden rule is to try and get a 90+.) Most squadrons heavily weigh it when selecting interviews, and it goes into the PCSM equation.
That said, I still think it’s important to score relatively well on the rest of the sections. Units will examine your scores as… Read more-

For the board that convened last October, we got results in December and most of the AF enlisted guys are going to OTS in July. I think the civilian applicants are a bit more varied, but will be going a month or so later.

Great news for the F-35 community. Marines have successfully flown the UK-based Meteor missile on their F-35B. The meteor is an advanced, long-range air-to-air missile already integrated on allied platforms. This combined testing shows us several things. The US and UK are testing weapons jointly to use on a common platform. This means we might…

Globally-minded BD Crew,
Things are heating up in Kashmir! India and Pakistan are back at it with fresh feuds heating up in Kashmir after a terror attack in the region last week. This is the latest in a long history of border disputes. But it matters to present and future tacticians for a couple reasons: 1.) Nukes are involved on both sides 2.)…
