Pacific Ocean (May 22, 2004) - An E-2C Hawkeye assigned to the "Liberty Bells" of Carrier Airborne Early Warning Squadron One One Five (VAW-115) launches from USS Kitty Hawk (CV 63) following the ship's annual spring cruise.  The E-2C is all weather, carrier-based tactical warning/control system aircraft, providing airborne early warning and control functions for the strike group. Currently under way in the 7th Fleet area of responsibility (AOR), the conventional aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk demonstrates power projection and sea control as the world's only permanently forward-deployed aircraft carrier, operating from Yokosuka, Japan.
