Same as what happened in the mid-1970s, when we migrated to the CV deck (from the split CVA / CVS dedicated decks). Among other taskings was that the A-6s would become secondary SSSC platforms, and the primary delivery platform for the later-cancelled CAPTOR (encapsulated torpedo) weapon. Regarding CAPTOR, "later canceled" must mean "served for more than 20 years and was retired". CAPTOR was fielded in 1979 and phased out around 2002. -- Tom Schoene lid To email me, replace "invalid" with "net" |
