CS2F-3
The RCN developed further improvements to the Tracker, which resulted in Fairey Aviation substantially modifying fourty-five CS2F-2's to a new CS2F-3 designation.. The CS2F-3 featured a second generation AN/ASN-501 tactical navigation computer, a Marconi AN/APN-503 Doppler radar, improved Jezebel and Julie submarine detection systems and an analogue computer to automatically integrate information from the Tracker's anti-submarine sensors. This was called the Anti-Submarine Warfare Tactical Navigation System (ASWTNS) and is described in more detail elsewhere in this web document. The first CS2F-3 (#1552) conversion was completed on 18 July 1966 and the last CS2F-3 (#1555) was completed on 19 April 1968.
