Basic notes: Virtual CVW-5 is a DCS MilSim Group that is based on the North American west coast. At CVW-5, we define MilSim through tactical operations and expectations of knowledge. This means that as a group, we strive to simulate as closely as possibly the tactical operations of real world Naval Aviators. To do this we expect that you obtain a minimum amount of knowledge on the procedures governing the aircraft of your choice which we ensure through the use of a regimented training syllabus. Where we draw the line is in the administrative aspects. We do not conduct multi-hour briefings or debriefings, our missions are considerably shorter than real life sorties, and we do not impose any form of military discipline.  We accept DCS players of all skill levels that are looking for a realistic experience.

We provide a mix between MilSim/Casual and we want everyone to enjoy flying without feeling like it's a second job.
