110127-N-2688M-078 SAN DIEGO (Jan. 27, 2011) An E/A-6B Prowler assigned to the Vikings of Electronic Attack Squadron (VAQ) 129 arrives at Naval Air Station North Island and is positioned next to an E/A-18G Growler, also assigned to the Vikings.

The aircraft are painted in a throwback tactical paint scheme (circa 1942), honoring U.S. combat aircraft that fought in the Battle of the Coral Sea during World War II.

The specially painted aircraft are part of more than 200 naval aircraft, from pre-World War II to the present, participating in a Parade of Flight over San Diego Bay, kicking off a series of nationwide events celebrating the Centennial of Naval Aviation.
