The Lockheed P-2 Neptune (until 18 September 1962 the P2V Neptune) was a naval patrol bomber and anti-submarine warfare (ASW) aircraft for the United States Navy between 1947 and 1978, replacing the PV-1 Ventura and PV-2 Harpoon and being replaced in turn with the P-3 Orion. Designed as a land-based aircraft, the Neptune never made a carrier landing, although a small number of aircraft were converted for carrier use and successfully launched. The type was successful in export, seeing service with several armed forces.

  • It was a good ASW platform but it was a bitch to work on.

    The Avionics bay was the size of a small broom closet...switching out boxes was an all day ordeal.

    And, in flight, if you touched that plastic nose you would get a shock your grand-children would feel.

  • Glenview NAS forever too.
