Lockheed S-3 Viking

48.6k Noman0rumeral  8.8 years ago

The Lockheed S-3 Viking is a four-seat, twin-engine turbofan-powered jet aircraft that was used by the U.S. Navy to identify and track enemy submarines. 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 the carrier battle group. A carrier-based, subsonic, all-weather, multi-mission aircraft with long range; VTOL for wings: ag 1 for tanks. i recommend 30-40% power for carrier landings. please enjoy

    I apologize for confusion. Speaking for former Lockheed engineers (yes I'm former) the S-3 Lockheed ASW design flew mail onto US AC Carriers, also dropped sounoboys to expose potential fleet enemy submarines. Also was equipped to fire " beyond visual horizon" AC to ship missiles. I am merely an engineer. Cannot speak for the elite (game world) SP creators.

    @Noman0rumeral OK. Upgrades: S-3 Viking can carry & launch two USN Harpoon missiles. Armed with conventional or special warheads. (SP is turning into a role-player weapons "game", maybe.)
