Established in 1974, the 962nd "Red Hawks" Air Airborne Control Squadron started out flying the EC-121 Warning Star until 1986 when the first Active Duty E-3 Sentrys within the OADF were pushed to Air Guard service in favor of the new E-767.
The squadron would serve with distinction during the 1995 Belkan War, and in support of the no-fly-zone operations that followed.
Today the Red Hawks are down to a final two Airframes, lovingly dubbed "Electric Eye" and "Heimdall" which stubbornly remain as the last few examples of the 707 derivative flying to this day.
