The Lockheed S-3 Viking is a 4-crew, twin-engine turbofan-powered jet
|
|
aircraft that was used by the U.S. Navy (USN) primarily for anti-submarine warfare.
|
|
In the late 1990s, the S-3B's mission focus shifted to surface warfare and aerial
|
|
refueling. The Viking also provided electronic warfare and surface surveillance
|
|
capabilities to a carrier battle group. A carrier-based, subsonic, all-weather,
|
|
long-range, multi-mission aircraft, it carried automated weapon systems and was
|
|
capable of extended missions with in-flight refueling. Because of its characteristic
|
|
sound, it was nicknamed the "War Hoover" after the vacuum cleaner brand. The S-3
|
|
was phased out from front-line fleet service aboard aircraft carriers in January
|
|
2009, with its missions taken over by aircraft like the P-3C Orion, P-8 Poseidon,
|
|
Sikorsky SH-60 Seahawk and Boeing F/A-18E/F Super Hornet
