A Naval Air Squadron is a unit within a navy that operates aircraft for various missions, including reconnaissance, combat, and support. These squadrons are typically part of a larger naval aviation organization and can include different types of aircraft, such as fighter jets, helicopters, and surveillance planes. Naval Air Squadrons play a crucial role in maritime operations, providing air support to naval fleets and conducting missions that enhance national security. They are often stationed on aircraft carriers or naval bases and work closely with other military branches, such as the United States Navy and Royal Navy.
