Help needed! In the Scramble Show Reports Database two US Navy P-3s are listed. There is no question about 161335, but the second a/c is noted as P-3C 161000. In my log I have noted this a/c as an EP-3E with Serial 163000. Any suggestions which is the correct serial?
Thanks in advance.

According to my log it was 161000. Just googled it, and saw a photo of the same aircraft at Cottesmore.

Indeed VQ-2. But still "just" a regular P-3, not an EP-3. So indeed 161000.heute wrote: ↑08 Jan 2022, 14:01Yes that is the one i am looking for. It´s clearly an a/c from VQ-2 .Alpha Kilo One wrote: ↑08 Jan 2022, 09:49 This one?
