Hi

I dont suppose anyone can shed light on the 3 possibly 4 P3C's that are currently operating out of Clark? I believe they are US Navy and they are carrying small squadron badges on the tail but sadly I can't identify the unit.

Regards

Martin

VP-47 is deployed to Japan and may well have some Orions detached to Clark. Some even have extra cameras on top of the cockpit to film any close encouters.
I could send you a picture to illustrate the VP-47 tailmarkings and the extra camera.

Thanks that would be great...That would be great as I could see the tail markings at a distance and they also carried a fairing above the cockpit.

I have noted the following P3C / EP3C's on ADSB exchange inbound / outbound Clark AFB enroute to / from the South China Sea.

161414 P3C
159893 EP3C
161594 P3C

Any ideas which unit they are operated by?
