Firing Some of the Navy’s Deadliest Weapons

Share

    When you’re a Fire Controlman, you ready, aim and fire some of the Navy’s deadliest weapons. Protect the ship from inbound aircraft with the 5-inch guns, or conduct offensive strikes with the Tomahawk cruise missile weapon system. From detection to defense, you are prepared to neutralize enemy targets as the need arises. This job in weapons engineering isn’t for everyone. It’s challenging, technical and requires a steady hand to protect freedom for your fellow Americans.
