VT-24, also known as Training Squadron TWENTY-FOUR, was a United States Navy training squadron established in 1959.
History
[edit]Initially based at Naval Air Station Chase Field in Beeville, Texas, VT-24 was tasked with providing advanced jet training for naval aviators, primarily flying aircraft such as the McDonnell Douglas TA-4J Skyhawk and later the T-45 Goshawk. Over its operational years, the squadron played a crucial role in preparing student pilots for carrier operations and fleet assignments. VT-24 was disestablished in 1996 as part of a restructuring of naval flight training operations.[1]
