Junior Non Commissioned Officer Ranks:

| This is the lowest NCO rank available and is assigned to pilots who are either promoted up through the ranks or through the training programmes. Unteroffiziers are not normally given responsibility over others, instead this rank serves to observe and learn the requirements of being an NCO. | At this rank a pilot can gain their first bit of leadership experience as this is the minimum rank required in order to be assigned as an acting Rottenfuhrer. |
Those pilots who demonstrate ability as an acting Rottenfuhrer are eligible to be promoted to the rank of Feldwebel where their status as Rottenfuhrer is confirmed. |
