S-3A Viking 159390 was delivered to VS-29 “Dragonflies” and shortly thereafter converted to an S-3B. In 1992 this S-3B was sent to VS-30 “Diamondcutters” coded as AA-700 aboard the USS Saratoga before moving to the USS John F. Kennedy in April of 2004 as the CAG aircraft. VS-30 made its last deployment on June 7, 2004 in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. On January 3 2005 159390 was sent to AMARC. After 53 years of active service a deactivation ceremony for VS-30 was held on December 9, 2005.

The Lockheed S-3 Viking is a four-seat, twin-engine turbofan-powered jet aircraft that was used by the U.S. Navy to identify and track enemy submarines.
