Warrant Officer

In the Lumenic Air Force, warrant officers are known as sottufficiale and are considered to be non-commissioned officers, outranking the senior-most enlisted ranks, as well as officer cadets and officer candidates, but below the officer grade of C‑1. They are primarily utilized to handle the upper administrative tasks of the Lumenic Air Force, serving as senior non-commissioned officers at the wing and air group level. Sottufficiales are employed in highly skilled, single-track specialty roles. In general, the Lumenic Air Force utilizes Sottufficiales as technical specialists, though in some cases a  Sottufficiale may also command detachments, units, activities, vessels, or aircraft. A Sottufficiale primary mission is to serve as a technical expert, providing valuable skills, guidance, and expertise to commanders and organizations in their particular field.

One special exception to this general rule is the rank of Maresciallo dell'aviazione or Marshal of the Air Force, who serves as the senior most non-commissioned officer in the Lumenic Air Force. The Maresciallo dell'aviazione is appointed to serve as a spokesman to address the issues of enlisted soldiers to all officers, from other Sottufficiales and Sottotenente's to the Air Force's highest positions. in effect making the Maresciallo dell'aviazione the senior most enlisted advisor to the Generale dell'aviazione, or the General of the Air Force. The exact duties vary depending on the Air Force's current Generale dell'aviazione, though much of the Maresciallo dell'aviazione's time is spent traveling throughout the nation to various Air Force bases and facilities, observing training and talking with soldiers and their families.
