-
- US naval aircraft are:
- F-14 interceptor
- F/A-18 fighter/bomber
- A-6 bomber
- EA-6B electronic countermeasures
- S-3 ASW turbojet aircraft
- SH-3 ASW helo
- SH-60 ASW helo
- E-3 early warning radar plane
- ^^^
- That would be ... "interesting" ;-)

- I realize that this is probably just a typo, but I think that the
- dedicated AEW plane in use on US CVs is the E-2C Hawkeye. I believe the
- E-3 is the Sentry.
