Chief Naval Aircrewman (Mechinical) Travis Hughson, assigned to Patrol Squadron FORTY-SIX (VP-46), looks for identifying markers on various passing water craft during a surveillance mission in support of Operation Inherent Resolve May 2, 2017. The P-3C has advanced submarine detection sensors such as directional frequency and ranging sonobuoys and magnetic anomaly detection equipment. The avionics system is integrated by a general purpose digital computer that supports all of the tactical displays, monitors and automatically launches ordnance and provides flight information to the pilots.
