In my opinion the chimaera was created by an anti federation state. ,In addition to its insane anti-Ground and anti naval capabilities. I have to say i was impressed by the insane amount of weoponry it can fit on its hardpoints One being the origins and capabilities of the ACG-01 chimaera and the replacement of the UF-22 with the VX-23 It has to do with 2 theories i have developed regarding project wingman. On August 2011,VX-23 flew the high-performance jet trainer on a biofuel mixture of petroleum-based JP-5 jet fuel and plant-based camelina.Ok i want to summon this discussion for some time now. On Earth Day 2010, a modified F/A-18 Super Hornet known as the "Green Hornet" was demonstrated by the squadron using a biofuel blend made from the camelina sativa plant. VX-23 conducts operations from a facility that includes three large hangars and also operates and maintains a TC-7 catapult and MK-7 arresting gear facility. The squadron conducts over 2,600 flight operations every year which sums up to roughly 3,500 flight hours, much of which involves high-risk flight test. Additionally the squadron is supported by hundreds of flight test engineers provided by NAVAIRSYSCOM 5.1.6 (Test and Evaluation Engineering) and various other contractors. These people support the squadrons 40 F/A-18A/B/C/D/E/F/G, EA-6B and T-45 aircraft.
The squadron consists of about 40 officers and 90 enlisted drawn from the US Navy and US Marine Corps and also 340 contractor and civil servant personnel involved with maintenance, planning and safety oversight. Recently, VX-23 have hosted and provided Flight Test Aircrew for the new Joint Strike Fighter X-32 and X-35 concept demonstration aircraft as well as the X-31 VECTOR test vehicle. Historyĭuring the years VX-23 have tested and evaluated fixed-wing fighter, attack and other designated aircraft including EA-6B, F-14, F/A-18 and T-45. The squadron also provides Government Flight Representative, test monitoring, chase aircraft support, facilities for contractor demonstration, validation and development work involving tactical aircraft and associated systems.Īn VX-23 F/A-18C releases Mk 83 bombs, in 2002. Their main mission is flying qualities and performance evaluations, shipboard suitability, propulsion system testing, tactical aircraft mission systems testing, ordnance compatibility and ballistics efforts, reliability and maintainability assessments, flight fidelity simulation and flight control software development. VX-23 provides aircraft, pilots, maintenance services, safety oversights and facility support for these operations.
VX-23 is an Aircraft Test Squadron that conducts research, testing and evaluation of fixed wing tactical aircraft and UAV's. Aircraft assigned to VX-23 include EA-6B, F/A-18E, F/A-18C and T-45.
