USN VAW-120 "Greyhawks"
Norfolk, 2010

In 2010 VAW-120 "Greyhawks" received new E-2D Advanced Hawkeyes as well as C-2A Greyhounds to complement the existing models. VAW-120 was an Airborne Command and Control Squadron used as a Fleet Replacement Squadron based at Naval Station Norfolk. One E-2C assigned to VAW-120 was 166503 -661 that departed Norfolk on August 31, 2020 for a training flight when something went horribly wrong and the crew were unable to react or correct the problem. The only action left was for the 4 crew to parachute to safety while the aircraft crashed on Wallop Island.
