ABOUT US

 

Blue Air Training provides the highest quality Close Air Support (CAS) training available — anywhere in the world. We ensure that every Operator is 100% combat ready and elevates the standard of the US Armed Forces.

We have served shoulder to shoulder with the same troops we now train. We’ve seen training shortfalls that couldn’t be overcome due to institutional constraints.

At Blue Air Training, we have the agility and freedom to provide Operators what they really need and what was previously considered unattainable.
