FA- 18 HORNET The FA- 18 Hornet is the Navy ' s newest strike fighter aircraft. It was first operationally deployed aboard Con- siellalion in 1985. The FA-18 is capable of flying nearly 500 miles inside an enemy ' s defenses, bomb targets, then fight its way back out. The FA-1 8 can be used in either the conventional fighter role or the ground attack role. The FA-18 is flown from Constellation by Strike Fighter Squadrons 1 1 3 and 25, known as the Stingers and Fist of the Fleet, respectively. S-3A VIKING The S-3 A Viking is used primarily for enemy submarine search and prosecution missions in the vicinity of the car- rier battle group. The aircraft provides an ideal balance of computer technology and antisubmarine systems which enable its crew of four to collect, process, interpret and store data. With an endurance of more than seven hours, the S-3A also provides the capability to locate and identify surface ships before they come within range of the battle group. The Viking is flown from Constellation by Air Antisubmarine Squadron 37, known as the Sawbucks. A-6E INTRUDER The A-6E Intruder is a low-level, high speed bomber, designed to deliver a variety of weapons on targets com- pletely obscured by inclement weather or darkness. With a two man crew, the Intruder can carry five 2,000 pound bombs or twenty-eight 500 pound bombs. In addition, the A-6E is capable of carrying the Harpoon anti-ship mis- sile. Attack Squadron 196, known as the Milestones, flies the A-6E from Constellation. The squadron also flies the KA-6D, the tanker version of the Intruder used for in- flight refueling of Constellation ' s other aircraft. SH-3H SEA KING The SH-3H Sea King is a gas turbine powered helicopter used in the primary role of carrier inner zone antisubmar- ine warfare. The SH-3H utilizes a unique variable depth dipping sonar, expendable sonobuoys and Magnetic Anomaly Detection equipment to detect enemy subma- rines. The Sea King has an on-station mission capability exceeding five hours and is airborne during all flight oper- ations. The SH-3H is flown from Constellation by Heli- copter Antisubmarine Squadron 8, known as the Eight- ballers. AIR WING FOURTEEN 15
