	quote Genosider quote son of a bandit1 Malyasia? I know they have skyhawks, but I'm not sure about the carrier. sorry, we've phased them out a long time ago, and we don't have a carrier... We mostly use Mig-29s, F/A-18s and BAE Hawks. Yes, I'm a Malaysian... Wow, Mig-29s and F/A-18s that's a different combo. Which one do you like better?

	quote Michael Molina The Gannet AEW.3 was deveolped from the Gannet AS1/AS4 Anti-submarine aircraft,the AEW.3 was the Royal Navy's primary carrier-borne AWACS...TRUE or FALSE True. "The Gannet was originally designed as an anti-submarine aircraft. In this role the maiden flight of the Gannet was on the 19th of September 1949. It entered service with 703X flight in April 1953. The Gannet was the first aircraft to use a double Mamba turbine engine in a single engine configuration, each unit powering a set of contra-rotating propellers. It was also the first turbopropeller aircraft to land on an aircraft carrier. This event occurred on the 19th of June 1950 when a Gannet landed on the carrier HMS Illustrious. The Gannets entry into service was delayed because of some major teething problems with both the airframe and the systems integration. In March 1956 and uprated double Mamba engine was test flown and later fitted to all service aircraft. With the development of the dipping sonar in the US, the Fleet Air Arm need for a fixed wing ASW aircraft was in doubt. The Gannet in its ASW role was discontinued and the Gannet AS4 was paid off in July 1960. Earlier trials had shown the effectiveness of airborne early warning aircraft. As a consequence the Gannet was modified to carry the APS 20F radar used in the trials. In this form, the Gannet AEW 3 first flew in August 1958 and entered service in March 1960. Gannet EW 3's were deployed on carriers until December 1978 when the last unit, 849 squadron was disbanded." Now my question. What was the F-21? This message was edited by echo one on Feb 07 2004.

	I want to say the B-29 Superfortress/the Russian copy the TU-4 Bull as the forerunner to the TU-95 Bear. I'am not quite sure on the second so I am going with my first answer.

	I can say with full confidence that the F-110 "Spectre" is the USAF designation for the USN F-4B Phantom.
