136486 (MSN 395) The plane flew over 24 years with the US Navy and Navy Reserves and served its final three 
years of naval service as a non-flying instructional airframe. The aircraft was modified to an S2F-1S in 1959 
with the installation of AQA-3 Jezebel long-range acoustic search equipment and an improved Julie 
explosive echo-ranging system. In September 1962, the S2F-1S designation became S-2B. In 1963, the 
plane’s designation became S-2F with further updating of the Jezebel/Julie installation. 136486’s last 
conversion came in 1968.  All ASW gear was removed, and it became a target towing utility transport, 
designated US-2A. In February 1972, the plane made an unintentional wheels-ups landing, causing extensive 
structural damage to its lower fuselage. It was repaired and returned to flying duties several months later. 
136486’s naval flying career ended in 1980 when assigned to Naval Air Reserve Training Center, Olathe (Gardner), 
Kansas.  Olathe used the Tracker as a “training device” until declaring it surplus in October 1982. 
On January 23, 1983, the Naval Air Systems Command placed the US-2A on loan to Combat Air Museum, Topeka, Kansas.
