M.Clements - Moon Dogs over Japan /Military/
‘Who let the dogs out?’ A quartet of ‘Moon Dogs’ EA-6B Prowlers at Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni, Japan.
Head on with the Franken Prowler; in the background ‘Sumo 46', a VMGR-152 KC-130J, refuels two Prowlers on a refuelling track over mainland Japan.
The Franken Prowler BuNo 158542, radio callsign Dog 34, hooked up to a VMGR-152 KC-130J for aerial refuelling over mainland Japan, where it received 2,000lb of fuel.
This EA-6B is fitted with two ALQ-99 tactical jamming pods with low-band transmitters.
The responsibilities of listening to different radios on missions are split between the Prowler’s four crew members.
