Raptor Squadron[edit]

Raptor Squadron is the primary training unit assigned to the Vast Imperial Naval Academy, or VENA. It is commanded by the Commander of the Naval Academy, Lieutenant Stormz, while most day-to-day training is handled by the assigned Flight Leader, Master Chief Petty Officer Amacuse.

Training Goals[edit]

Note: This section will go into specifics on the goals each pilot Trainee is expected to achieve in order to graduate from the Naval Academy. It will become more detailed as the page is developed.

  • Flight School: Chapter II
    • This Chapter is concerned with the actual writing of combat posts.
  • Flight School: Chapter III
    • This Chapter asks the Trainee to ensure their ID Line is correct and requires that they send a Report to the Flight Leader and to the Commander of the Naval Academy.

Training Method[edit]

Raptor Squadron uses flight training simulators as the primary method of instruction, which means the Trainees post about the combat they experience in the simulator units while under the oversight of the Flight Leader. A specific technique is used for training missions, called the Continuous Combat Loop. Created by Drac, this technique places Trainees into a well known battle from the past and allows them to take part. New enemies are introduced as needed, and recruits come and go during the battle, so there's no need for many separate training missions. Instead it is one continuous fight.
