The Frontiers of Flight Museum will mark the arrival of its latest aircraft, the Northrop Grumman EA-6B “Prowler” BuNo 162228, with a community celebration. This event features veteran speakers, photo ops, Q&A with former “Prowler” pilots and crew, refreshments, and activities for kids.
The EA-6B “Prowler” was arguably the single most important Electronic Warfare aircraft ever produced. Its primary purpose was to protect fleet surface units and other aircraft by jamming hostile radars and communications. First deployed in 1972, the aircraft remained in service for more than four decades, operating from U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps units.
