English: At sea aboard USS George Washington (CVN 73) Sept. 23, 2002 -- An E-2C "Hawkeye" from the “Tigertails” of Airborne Early Warning Squadron One Two Five (VAW-125) and an EA-6B "Prowler" from the “Scorpions” of the Tactical Electronic Warfare Squadron One Three Two (VAQ-132) stand ready on the flight deck at night. The "Hawkeye" is an all-weather, tactical warning and control system aircraft that provides command and control functions for the battle group. The "Prowler" is a twin-engine aircraft used to provide an umbrella of protection for strike aircraft by jamming enemy radar, electronic data links and communications. VAW-125 and George Washington are based in Norfolk, Va. VAQ- 132 is based in Whidbey Island, Wa. The George Washington is participating in Exercise Mediterranean Shark during a scheduled six-month deployment, which has included combat missions in support of Operations Enduring Freedom and Southern Watch.
