NATO Virtual
Supporting the Mission. Beyond Combat.

Welcome to NATO Virtual

NATO Virtual is a non-combat flight simulation organization dedicated to recreating the support missions of NATO air operations with structure, realism, and teamwork.

Formed by aviation enthusiasts, real-world pilots, and experienced simmers, our mission is to simulate NATO’s critical air support roles — including Airborne Early Warning (AWACS), Strategic Airlift, Aerial Refueling (AAR), Medical Evacuation (MEDEVAC), and other critical OPS — using leading flight simulation platforms such as Microsoft Flight Simulator, Prepar3D and X-Plane.

We provide a professional yet welcoming environment for both new and seasoned virtual pilots who want to contribute to coordinated, multi-role missions. Our operations follow realistic procedures, leveraging real-world SOPs, airspace coordination, and mission briefings, while always maintaining a respectful and non-political atmosphere.

We are not a military unit, nor do we simulate combat scenarios. Our focus is purely on replicating the vital support backbone that keeps NATO air operations running.
