Beschrijving A Lockheed P2V-5 (P-2E) Neptune of the Koninklijke Marine (Royal Netherlands Navy). The aircraft was built for the Netherlands but had the U.S. Navy Bureau Number 134671 assigned. However it has the last four digits of the Lockheed construction number painted on the nose wheel doors (426-5273). It was delivered to the Koninklijke Marine on 8 December 1953 as "19-21", later the hull number was changed to "086". It was returned on 9 March 1962 and passed on to the to Portuguese Air Force as "FAP 4701". Following negotiations between the governments of the Netherlands and Portugal, 12 Dutch P2V-5s were transferred to the Portuguese Air Force (serials 4701-4712). The P2V-5s replaced Lockheed PV-2 Harpoons of Esquadra de Reconhecirnento Maritime 61 (Maritime Reconnaissance Squadron) at Base Aerea No. 6 at Montijo, located near Lisbon. Contrary to the NATO charter, Portuguese P-2Es were used in combat operations during Portugal's colonial wars in Africa. In the late 1960s two P-2Es were assigned to BA 9 at Luanda (Angola), and carried out bombing missions and coastal patrols. Others operated from the island of Sao Tome during the Biafra war. At Portuguese Guinea-Bissau, BA 12 operated a pair of P-2Es in the bomber role. By 1977, only four P-2Es remained operational at BA 6, the remainder having been scrapped or stripped for parts. 4707 and 4711 were the last Neptunes that were finally withdrawn from service in 1978.
