VP-60

Patrol Squadron 60 (VP-60), known as the "Cobras," was a U.S. Navy Reserve patrol squadron established on November 1, 1970, at Naval Air Station Glenview, Illinois. The unit was part of the Naval Air Reserve Force, operating a series of maritime patrol aircraft, including the P-2 Neptune and later the P-3A and P-3B Orion, conducting anti-submarine warfare, maritime surveillance, and reconnaissance missions during the Cold War era. VP-60 participated in numerous training exercises and operational deployments, both domestically and abroad, supporting fleet readiness and augmenting active-duty patrol squadrons. The squadron was disestablished on July 1, 1994, as part of post-Cold War force reductions.
