HEAVY ATTACK SQUADRON 2 (VAH-2)
“Royal Rampants”


VAH-2 KA-3B "Skywarrior"


VAH-2's first war cruise was made aboard the USS Coral Sea (December 7, 1964-November 1965), with the unit being credited with the first A-3 bombing sorties (March 29,1965). During the Southeast Asia War, VAH-2 detachments made eight more deployments to the Gulf of Tonkin. In the course of these operations, VAH-2 primarily provided air refueling for the fleet with A-3Bs configured as tankers and later with KA-3Bs. Finally, as combined tanking/electronic warfare came into being, VAH-2 was redesignated VAQ-132 on November 1, 1968.
