  EA-6 Prowler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
When the US Air Force retired the EF-111A Raven, an aircraft similar in mission to the EA-6B, because of budget cuts the Navy agreed to share with it a number of "expeditionary" Prowler squadrons composed of Navy and USAF personnel.
The Prowler is unaffectionately known as the "Queer", partially because of the distinct coating on the canopy, designed to protect the crew from powerful electromagnetic emissions, and partially because of the "VAQ" designation of electronic warfare squadrons.
Though it remains in service today, the EA-6B Prowler is slated to be replaced after 2009 by the EA-18G Growler, a new electronic warfare derivative of the F/A-18F Super Hornet.

 VAQ-209 Sailor masters the desert
When Navy Petty Officer 1st Class Roger Etherington, personnel specialist, stepped off the C-130 in Al Asad, Iraq, last summer, he had no idea how much work lay ahead for him and a small advanced team to prepare the facilities Electronic Attack Squadron 209 and subsequent Navy units would need to perform combat operations.
While the Marine Corps and Army had established a significant presence on the former Iraqi Air Force base following the 2003 United States invasion, the Navy had operated from the base only sporadically.
‘‘Finding a replacement will be extremely difficult if not impossible, but the ‘can do’ attitude he exhibited during Operation Iraqi Freedom could not help but rub off on his fellow Sailors and lead the Star Warriors into an extremely successful future.” (Courtesy of the Electronic Attack Squadron 209)
