On display on the deck of museum ship CV-10 USS Yorktown. Derived from the A3D Skywarrior designed to operate from supercarriers as a nuclear bomber, the seven-seat EA-3B was the electronic recce and ECM variant. A crew of four operated the long Q-Band sideways looking ventral radar. The type entered service in Apr 1960 and was still flying during Op Desert Storm, standing down in 1991. This EA-3B served with VQ-1 "World Watchers" at NAS Agana, was embarked on CNV-70 USS Carl Vinson and went to VQ-2 "Sandeman" at NAVSTA Rota. It was saved for preservation by many donors and volunteers.

The unit moved from the F-8 Crusader to the F-4 in 1966. Deployed aboard CVA-66 USS America, it arrived on Yankee Station on 13 Jul 1972. On 11 Sep 1972 Maj. Lee T. Lasseter and RIO Capt. J. Cummings shot down a MiG-21 near Hanoi but were hit by a SA-2, forcing the crew to eject over the sea. It was the only all-Marine kill during the Vietnam War. VMFA-333 was the last regular USMC unit to operate the Phantom.

The original '66' of HS-4 was the primary recovery helicopter for Apollo 8, 10, 11, 12 and 13. It was lost at sea off NALF Imperial Beach in 1975. Commissioned in 1952, HS-4 "Black Knights" became the first ASW helicopter squadron to deploy aboard an aircraft carrier. During a single deployment in SEA in 1966, it set a record of rescuing 24 downed airmen. HS-4 pioneered SAR techniques for the Apollo capsule recoveries.
