The “Screwtops” of VAW-123 are based out of NAS Norfolk, VA and fly the Grumman E-2C Hawkeye. They were established in April 1967 and participated in Operation Desert Storm onboard the USS America (CV-66) with CVW-1. Their trademark is the screwtop design on the upper surface of the radar dome and this is the large, circular version of the top of their radar with the “All-Seeing Eye” in the middle.
