One of 24 Neptunes operated by the RAAF and among a batch of 12 of the later SP-2Hs delivered in 1962 to 10 Sqdn at Townsville, Qld. It was operated in the ASR role and flew the last mission by an RAAF Neptune at the end of November 1977. Sold to a scrapper in 1978, it was not removed in time and passed to a private buyer, restored to flight during 1981 and bought by HARS in 1988. Repainted in original midnight blue 1991 and to Albion Park 2002 with J34s fitted. On 24th Dec 2023, flown again after two-year restoration, now the only flying P-2 in the world.

The last of a batch of twelve SP-2H Neptunes supplied under MDAP to Australia in 1962, allocated BuNo 149081 and becoming A89-281 on arrival for service with 10 Sqdn RAAF Townsville. Flown to Amberley for disposal at the end of 1977 and taken in by the Chewing Gum Field Museum, QLD for static display. Trucked to Archerfield Airport in 1990. Although registration VH-NEP was reserved it was not taken up and was eventually dismantled between 2003 and 2005 having been donated to HARS, becoming the third Neptune in the collection and providing spares for their flying aircraft.

This was one of a batch of 10 Neptunes supplied to the Aeronavale in 1959, serving 23F and 25F till transferred to 12S in Tahiti in 1983. Stored at Papeete from 1984, it was acquired by HARS and ferried to Australia in July 1999 under registration N8187Z, being allocated VH-LRR after arrival. After some airshow appearances, in September 1999 it flew from Tamworth to Bankstown and next in January 2003 to the then-new HARS base at the Illawarra Regional Airport where overhaul work continues pending return to airworthiness alongside P2V-7 A87-273 (which is once again flying).

Contracted as P2V-7 Bu Aer 135593 in 1955 but supplied to the Royal Canadian AF as 24113. It was acquired by Flying Firemen as CF-MQW in 1972 and converted as a tanker but failed to gain certification and was sold on to Johnson Flying Service, Missoula, MT as N14448. From 1975 it joined Black Hills Aviation, Alamogordo, NM as tanker 'A16' but was was damaged beyond repair the same year. On being moved to Pima, it was restored using parts from SP-2H 147957. Another SP-2H, 150281, is held in store by the museum.
