REAL TO REPLICA BLUE SERIES
The Grumman E-2 Hawkeye
by Andy Evans
The Grumman E-2 Hawkeye was designed and developed during the late 1950s and early 1960s for the US Navy as a replacement for the earlier, piston-engine E-1 Tracer, which was rapidly becoming obsolete. The E-2 was the first aircraft designed specifically for its role, as opposed to a modification of an existing airframe. The E-2A Hawkeye entered US Navy service in January 1964 and in April 1964 with VAW-11 at NAS North Island. The first deployment was aboard the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk during 1965. Since entering combat during the Vietnam War, the E-2 has served the US Navy around the world, acting as the electronic ‘eyes of the fleet’.
This 100-page full colour ‘Blue Series’ book looks in detail at the history and employment of the Hawkeye, with photographic references, walk arounds, and as the ‘Real to Replica’ title suggests there is a section on how to model the E-2 using Kinetic kits, making this book and ideal resource for both the enthusiast and scale modeller alike.
