1/72 Witty Wings US Navy EA-18G Growler, VAQ 129, Vikings Squadron
Good days everybody, Today is Sunday Time hahahaha. Just Relax and I give yours my new scaled 1/72 model from witty wings. This is first time I has collected new variant of hornet EA-18G Growler the dedicated EW Aircraft for US Navy Fleet. Electronic Attack Squadron One Two Nine (VAQ-129) is the United States Navy and Marine Corps' only EA-6B Prowler and EA-18G Growler training squadron. Known as the Vikings, they are a Fleet Replacement Squadron, or FRS, and are charged with training all EA-6B and EA-18G aviators and developing standard operating procedures for the maintenance and operation of the aircraft. The squadron is permanently stationed at Naval Air Station Whidbey Island, in Puget Sound, Washington.
Beginning in June 2008, VAQ-129 began transitioning to the Navy's next generation electronic attack aircraft the EA-18G Growler. On 5 August 2009, EA-18G Growlers from VAQ-129 and Electronic Attack Squadron 132 (VAQ-132) completed their first at-sea carrier-arrested landing (trap) aboard nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN-75).
