Johnson to retire from NAWCWD after 45 years Sunday
Ridgecrest Daily Independent
Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake will celebrate Dick Johnson’s almost 45 years in the Weapons Division this Sunday but instead of a traditional flag-raising ceremony, NAWCWD will fly in each F/A-18 model currently operating at China Lake in recognition of his dedication.
Johnson came to China Lake in 1976, where his main focus for years was improving the capabilities and readiness for F/A-18s.
“He worked on sensor upgrades, navigation communications and data links and cockpit systems,” a press release from NAWCWD reads.
He has led the Advanced Concepts/Flight Plan team at China Lake since 1993, “supporting Super Hornet and Growler readiness and warfighting improvements extending out to 2040.”
