Just found out that I am joining the community! Reading through this old thread to learn a little bit more, interesting reading about the transition to 8 blades over multiple years in about 10 mins time on here. couple quick questions. Whats all the E2c2 squadron Callsigns? kinda random, but something I was just thinking about. Oh, and what equipment do they file, /A or /I... /G haha kidding, well actually the E2D? I'm not even sure if /G is part of the Navy vision.

VAW-124/125 not sure.
VAW-126 closeout.

All the 12x squadrons are in Norfolk, all the 11x squadrons save 115 are California, 115 is Japan.

Until 121 gets D's, then they move to Japan.

125: Tiger

The D transition plan is always in flux. The Magic 8-Ball is as good a source as any, frankly.

/G is in the works and a reality for a few platforms. On several of the EP-3's I flew, we legally filed /G and shot approaches etc...Can't speak specifically about E2/C2, but it's not out of the realm of possibility.

So I guess it's /I for the time being? I was also surpised that the E2 has no weather radar. Guess with the props coating they don't need to be picking through nasty weather anyways.. I imagine there is technology to improve the 8 blades and their issue with water?

/G is also in the works for 60S. not sure about the Romeo.

Not yet for the R. I recently went through IGS (I refuse to call it HITS) with a bunch of Sierra dudes and there was no mention of being able to file /G yet.
