What training do you get to fly a fighter plane?

First you do a lot of classroom work and ground training. Following this you will usually start lessons on a small trainer aircraft while doing more ground training on that aircraft and on flying procedures. Eventually you will 'solo' in this trainer. In most western air forces you have now been at it about 6 - 9 months. After your solo, navigation exercises in the trainer will commence. When you graduate from that , you usually get your wings. At this point it will be decided, based on your performance, whether you are going to fighters, multi-engine aircraft or helicopters. You will then go to the appropriate 'Operational Conversion Unit' to train on the particular aircraft you will fly. This may take a further 3-6 months. -Of course, all of this varies a bit from country to country.
