this date is 2 days after CVW-5 returned from a criuse.Therfore all their EA-6B were on base.I take it the jet you saw was in grey colours?.If so the chances of identifying it are virtually zero.Richard from Rotterdam wrote:Hi All,
a query for 2 November 2011. On this date we saw a lone EA-6B parked on the US Navy platform, but due to distance and heat haze we were unable to decipher its identity. Can anyone supply an ID for this Prowler?
Thanks in Advance!

Re: Atsugi (RJTA) - 2011 MIL
Nope, you are wrong on that one, CVW-5 was still out on a cruise. They only arrived back on the 19th of November 2011. That's why I am hoping someone is able to help me with the ID of this lone Prowler!Le Addeur noir wrote:this date is 2 days after CVW-5 returned from a criuse.Therfore all their EA-6B were on base.I take it the jet you saw was in grey colours?.If so the chances of identifying it are virtually zero.Richard from Rotterdam wrote:Hi All,

164402 NF-500
163034 NF-501
163401 NF-503
163404 NF-504
So NF-502(163049) should be the missing one present at Atsugi on the 2nd.

Thanks. Searching the web I could only make 3 of the 4 on cruise. Shame, 163401 would've been the only new one for me... :-/
