Core Skills

  • Basic radar and communications troubleshooting
  • Component- and module-level fault isolation
  • Communications networking and C4I fundamentals

Civilian Career Paths

Career associations are editorial assessments of the cited evidence, not an official crosswalk unless the evidence explicitly says so. O*NET supplies civilian occupation information, not proof of a military match. Related experience does not confer civilian qualifications. Tasks and tools below describe civilian work, not military training.

Electrical and Electronics Repairers, Commercial and Industrial Equipment

Introductory component- and module-level troubleshooting of radar and communications systems provides a foundation for diagnosing electronic equipment faults.

How to prepare: Complete a hands-on industrial electronics repair lab that covers fault diagnosis, repair verification, and maintenance records before targeting trainee repair positions.

What the civilian work involves
  • Test faulty equipment to diagnose malfunctions, using test equipment or software, and applying knowledge of the functional operation of electronic units and systems.
  • Maintain equipment logs that record performance problems, repairs, calibrations, or tests.
  • Inspect components of industrial equipment for accurate assembly and installation or for defects, such as loose connections or frayed wires.
Civilian tools and software (examples)
  • Circuit evaluation software
  • Computerized maintenance management system CMMS

Electronic Equipment Installers and Repairers, Motor Vehicles

Basic communications troubleshooting and knowledge of navigation principles transfer to vehicle-mounted electronic equipment, with additional vehicle-specific practice.

How to prepare: Take a practical vehicle-electronics course and complete a supervised communications or navigation equipment installation with fault testing.

What the civilian work involves
  • Install equipment and accessories, such as stereos, navigation equipment, communication equipment, and security systems.
  • Inspect and test electrical or electronic systems to locate and diagnose malfunctions, using visual inspections and testing instruments, such as oscilloscopes and voltmeters.
  • Diagnose or repair problems with electronic equipment, such as sound, navigation, communication, and security equipment, in motor vehicles.

Notes & Sources

  • V011 documents entry-level school preparation before an initial operational tour, not sustained operational maintenance experience or advanced repair proficiency.
