GreyGhost Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 (All photos: US Navy) Is that the "Saddle" antenna on the aft spine of this Stingers F/A-18E like on EA-18Gs? -Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Did you mean SADL? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 I'm not sure, I've read the term "Saddle" before but it might indeed have meant SADL for Situational Awareness Data Link ... I've only noticed that on Growlers before ... -Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites

11bee Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 If you happen to come across recent pictures of VAQ-141's Growler 507, please feel free to post! Thanks again for taking the time to post all these awesome pictures. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 (edited) (Photos from Seaforces.org) Edit: (Photos: US Navy) CVW-5 photos are a bit lean on the Navy site right now ... I did come across these of #507 on there though ... Hope that's helpful ... -Gregg Edited May 6, 2023 by GreyGhost Quote Link to post Share on other sites
11bee Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 You the man Greg, that helps quite a bit. I'll be building this one in the near future. Just trying to find out what the current names are on the port side of the cockpit. On a weathering related note, that's a gnarly looking external tank in the first picture of 507 you posted.

Geoff M Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Love all the pics you post. Do you have any Tomcat and Phantom photos to share? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Geoff, nearly all the photos I post come from the Navy website. They revamped it about two years ago and all the older photos that were posted disappeared unfortunately ... I recommend >>> Seaforces <<< for older photos some of which they've archived from the Navy site ... HtH ... -Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Geoff M Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Got it, thanks for what you are doing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Geoff, if you're looking for something in particular, I will search for that for you ... -Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Geoff M Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Nothing in particular but your Hornet and Lightning pics give valuable information and detail on those planes. Just thought it might provide the same detail for others. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreyGhost Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 The cool thing about posting from the Navy site is that all these photos are Public Domain so you won't run into Copyright issues ... (All photos: US Navy) -Gregg Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Between your pictures and the others I've come across, the only part of 507 I still don't have details on are the names under the port side canopy and NG door. If you come across any pictures of those areas of the jet, please feel free to post them Greg! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
