Naval Aviator Career

Ok, I get that the P-8 is a jet, but doesn't land on a carrier. But, even after using the search functions and Google, it wasn't clear to me that P-8 pilots ever serve at sea. So, do such pilots ever do those two year "disassociated tours" that carrier based pilots do? If not, when, if ever, do they serve at sea?

edforescas,
In the unlikely event you are qualified to commission, please avoid the USAF.

Yes, it’s expected.

Lol. I wasn't planning on the Chair Force, but thanks.

Thanks, Brett. I'll now go to some research to find out what kind of sea duty P-8 pilots actually do.
