Taken on strength by the US Navy in June 1965, this Orion was retired to AMARC in January 1990. It was among eight P-3s bought by Brazil circa 2002; five to be upgraded by EADS / CASA in Getafe, Spain to P-3AM and the other three for spares. This one left AMARC in 2009 for upgrade and was delivered to the Brazilian Air force as FAB 7208.
