in 1967 VAW-12 disbanded and reformed the Navy’s east coast Airborne C2 community as VAW-120 "Greyhawks", VAW-121 Bluetails, VAW-122 Steeljaws, Vaw123 Screwtops, VAW - 124 "Bear Aces", VAW 125 Tigertails, and VAW-126 SEAHAWKS.

in 2015 the E-2D began its first operational deployment aboard USS Theodore Roosevelt from N.S. Norfolk with VAW 125 Tigertails as part of Carrier Air Wing ONE, CVW-1. This significant milestone marked an important leap in Airborne Command and Control capabilities available to the U.S. Navy carrier strike group.

in 1991, an E-2C from VAW 125 Tigertails provided critical air control of the US Navy’s only two confirmed air-to-air kills of Desert Storm.

Flying from USS Saratoga (CV-60) as part of CVW-17, Air Control Officer LT John Joyce's all-important comm of "bandits off your nose, 15 miles" led to an immediate transition of the F/A-18's radar modes from air-to-surface into the air-to-air mode allowing for LCDR Fox and LT Mongillo to achieve a lock-on and destroy two MiG-21 aircraft. The E-2's timely communication and efficient weapons employment allowed the F/A-18's to retain their Mk-84 bombs, proceed in to their target area, and employ on the original targets: Iraqi airfields.

A huge thank you to VAW-113, VAW-120 "Greyhawks", and VAW-126 SEAHAWKS for all of the assistance at WSINT 22B! The community’s support ensures future squadron Training Officers and Hawkeye WTIs have the experience and knowledge to effectively integrate the E-2 in the joint force against any adversary.
