NWL EP-3B

  As far as I know only two P-3B were converted to EP-3J and that was 152719 and 152745. This is one of three P-3A modified as EP-3B in 'mid 1960's' It was later redesignated as an UP-3A and went to AMARC in 1992. Stig

  The first of the "two-door" EP-3 'Batrack' Orions. NARF Alameda installed a second, "mirror" door alongside the original, doubling the opening in the fuselage side, but they failed to install additional fuselage bracing. On takeoff following conversion, torque down the length of the fuselage nearly twisted the tail off. The door opening was strengthened and '673' went back into service, but a 4 degree twist in the tail remained until she was scrapped at AMARG in 2017.
