The C-2A Greyhound's six decades of service have come to an end with its final in-service flight landing at NAS Pensacola. The aircraft was attached to the 'Rawhides' of Fleet Logistics Support Squadron (VRC) 40. This marks the conclusion of the platform's operational use.

Why it matters

The C-2A Greyhound's retirement is significant as it represents the end of an era for a platform that has played a crucial role in naval logistics support. Its retirement will likely be followed by the introduction of new or modified platforms to fill its role.
