EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Grumman S-2E Tracker aircraft, specifically the MSN 251C (base code NT, call sign 106) of VS-33 and VSG-59, which was embarked on the USS Hornet during the 1960s. Originally built as a Grumman S2F-3S (Model G-121), this aircraft was redesignated as an S-2E in 1962. The S-2E Tracker was a versatile, twin-engine, long-range, maritime patrol and anti-submarine warfare aircraft, which played a crucial role in the United States Navy's fleet during the Cold War era. With its distinctive shape and powerful engines, the S-2E Tracker was a formidable presence in the skies, providing essential surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities. This image captures the aircraft in its element, ready for action on the flight deck of the USS Hornet. The S-2E Tracker's legacy continues to be celebrated in aviation history as an iconic symbol of American naval aviation during the 1960s.
