Love it and didn't know that the P-3 could carry ASROC's though it makes sense

P3's never carried ASROCs (Anti-Submarine Rockets). Those were for skimmers only. What you're seeing on the wing pylons are Harpoon anti-ship missiles.
As for the painting, it looks pretty good, except for the engine nacelles. They're too pristine. P3's usually sport a heavy line of exhaust residue on them. These planes took an unbelievable amount of abuse on patrol and had a lot of grime and soot to show for it. The pilots flew 'em like bush pilots --low and slow, as they laid Bear Traps. Been there and done that --great times! CC |

Cheer guys for the kind words, I'd forgotten about this post myself.
In a terrific postscript the painting is now with the VP-45 Association and has been accepted as a donation for display at the National Naval Aviation Museum, Pensacola. Needless to say I'm very proud of this. Pete |
