Interesting visitor to RAF Mildenhall, Suffolk on October 4, 2018 was this P-3C-BMUP+ (Block Modification Upgrade Program plus) marked for Patrol Squadron 46 (VP-46). It was on its way to US Naval Support Activity, Souda Bay, Crete. The pod underneath is the APS-149 Littoral Surveillance Radar System, a wide-aperture active electronically-scanned array surveillance radar. A similar pod for the Orion's successor, the P-8A Poseidon has been under development for some years.

Belgian Alpha Jets have flown over 190,000 hours of flying training since 1978, a statistic displayed along the side of the aircraft’s port engine nacelle.
