Cool. I didn't know they had one down there.

The motors are basically the same configuration as the Prowler (just a
little less thrust).

It's a small museum on the back side of the airport, but it has a couple
of nice aircraft in the collection.

It must have been WAY back- no A-6E Intruders are flying anymore since
VA-196 sent the last to the desert in the mid 90's. What you saw was

likely

an EA-6B Prowler, easily recognizable by the two canopy (four seat)
configuration.
