Naval Test Wing Pacific Conducts Gray Flag 2024 With Multiple Partners

Allies, Academic And Industry Partners Join U.S. Forces

The Naval Test Wing Pacific and VX-9 at Naval Base Ventura County, Point Mugu, California, hosted Gray Flag 2024 in September with more than 3,000 personnel from the Navy, Marine Corps, Army, and Air Force conducting more than 60 test initiatives.

Multiple allied partners along with participants from academic and science and technology partners joined the U.S. forces in the testing activities. The complex event included about 600 aircraft sorties and more than 25 systems being tested on the ground.

The Point Mugu Sea Range comprises 36,000 square miles of instrumented sea and airspace operated by the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division and provided a unique location for Gray Flag’s multi-domain, joint test requirements.

The event included live, virtual, and constructive test elements which permitted more complicated modern warfighting problems to be modeled, tested, and addressed.

Capt. David Halpern, Commodore of Naval Test Wing Pacific said, “Gray Flag 2024 was an opportunity to bring together a diverse group of participants from different branches of the military, academic partners, science and technology leaders, and allied partners.

“The broad scope of participants allowed us to test and evaluate our systems and how they interact with one another in an operationally relevant environment. This was the most expansive interoperability event to date, with the data captured informing requirements, tactics, techniques, and procedures for future kill chains."
