Welcome to the
Virtual 1st Air Expeditionary Wing!
A DIGITAL COMBAT SIMULATOR COMMUNITY
Welcome to the 1st Air Expeditionary Wing, home of the Virtual Vultures, Virtual Red Tails, & Virtual Red Devils! We are a group of virtual pilots that leverage Digital Combat Simulator to simulate the experience of being part of a front line joint A-10C Thunderbolt II and F-16C Fighting Falcon Expeditionary Wing.
We were created with the purpose of having fun and learning to fly the world's most deadly attack aircraft, the Mighty Hawg! We have since expanded to the highly lethal F-16C Viper.

1st AEW SQUADRON LIST
Formed in 2020 as the original squadron of the unit, the 511th Virtual Squadron "Vultures" is the premier A-10CII Close Air Support Squadron in DCS.
The 511th Virtual Fighter Squadron's vision is to balance the most authentic A-10CII experience with the real realities of life and time. Our squadron combines thousands of hours of in-sim experience with realistic U.S. Air Force tactics, techniques, and procedures without all the "out of game" formalities. Additionally, the squadron partners with military veteran Subject Matter Experts to bolster our capabilities.
Formed in 2022 as the 1st AEW's second squadron, the "Red Tails" bring a much faster paced environment to the wing.
The 100th FS focuses on all of the prolific F-16C Viper's roles including OCA, DCA, SEAD, and many other mission types that make the jet so versatile.
Watch how we fly!
