Originally designed as a Fast Light Patrol Carrier, all three airships were taken out of service during the mid-80's and converted into RDF Patrol Ships with the installation of a "Longeyes" airborne long range radio direction finder and 3 "Telescope" engagement area radio direction finders. Due to additional weight and volume considerations brought about by these installations, and the 20% increase in fuel storage capacity, the ships complements of 8 "Sunset" attack dynes were replaced by 2 "Arrowhead" long range patrol dynes and a 1 "Oklahoma" 16 place transport gyro. The ship Tsi-s-qua-ya (R 1124) was cocooned at the Ute Air Storage Depot on July 13, 1993.
