Is the intent of those flights to train the NFO to be the pilot in the front seat?
I did just show you where the intent is to be in a pilot training program of some type.
If this was some regular joe flying around in a 172 with an instructor maybe the discussion would be somewhat different, but the problem is the intent in the military is clear due to already being in the NFO position and the mission of these flights being defined.
