Welcome Aboard!


Welcome to the home of the world famous Pioneers, Air Test and Evaluation Squadron ONE. We are located in beautiful Patuxent River, Maryland. Our mission here is to conduct tests, evaluations, and investigations of antisubmarine warfare aircraft systems, weapons systems, airborne strategic weapons system, support systems, equipment, and materials in an operational environment. Because of the squadron’s unique position as an interfacing unit between the development of new weapon systems and their subsequent introduction into the Fleet, VX-1 is considered the squadron that "does it first."
