Virtual CIA Air Branch

[vUSIA 0]

It is our pleasure to announce the opening of the virtual United States Intelligence Aviation. We are a group of flight simulator enthusiasts simulating the operations of the Central Intelligence Agency’s Air Branch. 

The vUSIA has been in development since 2019, and active in its current form since the fall of 2021. Established by a group of dedicated and experienced virtual military pilots and former/current international relations/conflict students, the vUSIA aims to provide a realistic, engaging and exciting experience for virtual pilots of all skill levels.

We operate a fleet of aircraft based on known CIA linked dummy corporations and their operations. In turn, we operate our aircraft through a series of fictional dummy corporations (and one real-world US Air Force Unit). These corporations act in a similar way to a unit or squadron at other virtual military organizations, with a lead pilot supervising the training and participation of their fellow pilots. Details on each corporation can be found on the “hubs” page on the website, or in the vUSIA Discord server.

As with any virtual military or paramilitary organization operating on the VATSIM network, we make use of a regimented training program. This ensures our pilots are prepared to conduct operations on the network respectfully and professionally. Details on the expected training for every pilot can be found on the “school” page on the website.

By joining the ranks here at the vUSIA, you are entering an organization unlike any other in the flight simulation community. You will be operating clandestine missions unbeknownst to others, and participating in operations that will take you around the world. There are also always places for those who want to be engaged in the administration level, acting as a supervisor or mission planner. Both current staff members and open positions can be found on the “staff” page of the website. 

Our current fleet includes:

• DHC6 Twin Otter
• Dash 8 300 (DH8A and DH8D allowed as substitutes)
• Antonov AN32
• Lockheed L100 (C130)
• Dassault Falcon 50
• Gulfstream V (Gulfstream IV allowed as substitute)
• Boeing 737-700
• C32B Gatekeeper (B757-200)
• Boeing 767-300
• Boeing 747-200
• An assortment of helicopters (pilot’s choice)

 

We’d love to answer any and all questions you may have! Feel free to leave a comment here, or you can reach us online on our site or Discord.
