The RP-3D was originally a P-3C derivative which had been delivered to the US Navy as an oceanographic survey aircraft for project MAGNET run by the Oceanographic Development Squadron Eight (VXN-8). The aircraft was equipped with environmental sensors and a non-ferrous empennage (tail section) to allow the crew to accurately measure variations in the Earth's magnetic field. Designed as a replacement for the P2V Neptune Anti-Submarine aircraft, the P3 Orion was first flown in November, 1959.© Copyright 2003-2009 The Flying Mule, Inc.
