Marine Tactical Electronic Warfare Squadron 3 (VMAQ-3), known as the "Moon Dogs," was a United States Marine Corps aviation unit established in 1984. The squadron specialized in electronic warfare, flying the EA-6B Prowler to provide electronic attack, jamming enemy radars, and gathering electronic intelligence. VMAQ-3 participated in numerous operations, including Operations Desert Storm, Iraqi Freedom, and Enduring Freedom, supporting both Marine and joint forces worldwide. The squadron was deactivated in May 2018 as part of the Marine Corps’ transition away from the EA-6B platform.
