About the Sikorsky® SH-3A Sea King™:
Playing an essential role in the recovery of the Gemini 2 spacecraft crew, the Sikorsky® SH-3A Sea King™ was utilized by the United States Navy as an ASW (anti-submarine warfare) and utility asset for several decades. The craft’s primary objective was to detect and track Soviet submarines during the Cold War. The Sea King™ would’ve also been used to seek and destroy submarines had open conflict occurred. In Vietnam, Sea Kings™ were used to recover downed aircraft, especially across enemy lines. In the 1990s the Sea King™ began to be phased out of U.S. military service, though some continued to operate in reserve units in roles including logistical support, search and rescue, and transport. Finally in January of 2006, the Sea King™ was officially retired at NAS Norfolk in Virginia.
