It will be almost impossible... I you can't see under the stab it means it's a "black ops" P3

or it could be 163006? It can't be 161006 because that is preserved at Andrews AFB AFAIK.

During March 163006 was reported at Kadena with the recently arrived VP-40 deployment. If there was no BuNo nelow the fin, 006 is a P-3SPA of VPU-2. I f you can send me a picture I would be able to confirm this. See also our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/groups/376486919049384/
