The Aurora is the first line of defense.

We have no uh live warheads in these ones, but we do have 8 gallons of fuel in the torpedoes.

The Aurora started its life primarily looking for submarines and uh and pursuing them and keeping track of them.

It's really turned into a true uh multi-roll aircraft.

YouTube Video Description↓

Canada's legendary Cold War spy plane, the CP-140 Aurora, is put to the test in a high-stakes war game. As Russian submarines once again probe allied waters, the Aurora must hunt down a mock sub in a massive air-to-sea exercise. But when mechanical failure, an illegal oil spill, and even a rogue whale threaten to derail the mission, will Canada's aging sub-hunter prove it still has the right stuff?
