Airborne Command & Control Squadron 125 (VAW-125), known as the “Torch Bearers” or “Tigertails”, was established on 1 October 1968, at Naval Air Station Norfolk. The squadron’s initial supporting command was Carrier Air Wing Three (CVW-3) deploying aboard USS Saratoga.[1]

The squadron is equipped with the E-2 Hawkeye. It was the first east coast squadron with E-2B’s in 1968, among the first to operate the E-2C in 1975, receiving the E-2C 2000 in its first operational year in 2003, and the first unit to operate the E-2D Advanced Hawkeye in 2014.
