Current service use not established
This code is listed in the directory. Inclusion alone does not confirm current service use.
A Navy officer classification, not an enlisted rating.
Overview

They advise on ordnance capabilities and limitations, enforce ammunition and explosives safety requirements, and manage qualification, expenditure allowance, and weapons information system programs.
Notes & Sources
- NOOCS Part A (Edition 96, Jul 2026) prints officer code 736X as “Aviation Ordnance Technician…”, paired with its Chief Warrant Officer billet row (billet 7360 requiring the specialty); the row states who holds the code and which specialty the billet requires, not what duties every holder performs. See the cited block for the exact pairing text.
- Because the Navy carries no duty, training, or clearance prose at designator level, occupation-specific recommendations are not published here; a 736X officer’s duties depend on the assigned billet.
