MLD Historie 159

This time only pictures of the famous Lockheed P3CII Orion in the air service of the Royal Netherlands Navy. Nl.320 SQN started flying the Orion in 1982 together with Training squadron 2. Nl 321 SQN took over in the early ninetees when Nl.2SQN was disbanded. The dark livery was well liked by other navies. After midlife modification and aircraft selling to Germany and Portugal the livery changed to light grey. End of the Fleet Air Arm in 2006. HOW STUPID A GOVERNMENT CAN BE(2006) IS PROVEN BY THE WORLD SITUATION AFTER 2022.

Grandiose prenten van een vervlogen tijd - helaas.

P-3C Update II with a great ESM and countermeasures suite. Liked the images showing aerial minelaying capability and the MK 46 release.
