Live near Myrtle Beach, these are flying around here all the time between Charleston and Wilmington, NC. They fly over my house a few thousand feet up.
You can find them often operating at the black sea at the moment. They're a little hard to find as they don't display a callsign. Today they have one at the border of Romania , Moldova and Ukraine by the black sea operating with one of the British RC-135W for example...
P-8 is more advanced but my heart is with the P3C Orion it replaced. 10 years as an avionics tech on P3C at Navy Depot Alameda I repaired many a black box and circuit card. Love the sound of the Allison turboprops The gold old days.
Yeah, my days in the Royal Australian Navy we often spent time operating with RAAF P-3Cs. They’d fly low and throw those things around almost pretending to be fighter pilots! I got to go onboard one once, not in flight, in Malaysia at RMAF Butterworth and they showed a handful of us footage they’d recorded just prior of a Soviet destroyer in the area. Now I’m showing my age! 🤣 And you’re right about the sound of those four engines, it was amazing! 737s are just normal jet noise…
I’ve never heard of the P3C before so I just looked it up and man does it look cool. It’s like the DC-3 had an edgy older brother (I know the DC-3 is from a different company, the P3C just reminded me of it)
@Iden_in_the_Rain the P-3 Orion was based on the Lockheed Electra airliner. I always thought it was hilarious that five decades after the Electra is no longer used as an air liner, the Orion is STILL in service around the world. P.S. 'Based on' is an extreme exaggeration (most thf the airframe is modified by now) engines, sensors, weapons suite, electronic warfare suite(s), are all generations from the Ekectra, and her modified ancestors.
That looks fun. Better than being stuck on a ship all day, every day or on a tarmac bas - all day, every day. No mud or water in the air (not quite accurate but, hey, it's the weekend). Thanks for the video, enjoy yourselves, stay safe.
What a great vid. For some reason, I had always pictured the internal weapons bay of the P-8 opening to the INSIDE of the fuselage of the aircraft. Like the torpedoes were on some kind of launcher that was up inside the fuselage, and maybe there were spare torpedoes off to the sides that were loaded onto the launcher similarly to how they are loaded into the torpedo tubes on a submarine...something of that nature. I don't know why that was an assumption I made, but I've never actually seen what the inside of the weapons bay on a P-8 looked like! Seeing that it is more like the internal weapons bay of an F-22 or F-35 was a revelation to me.
An angel for surface ships, a deathnail for submarines...but, they are working on an anti-aircraft-missile-system for subs, which launches AA-missiles from under the surface. Bad suprise.
Way back in the day, the RCAF had a maritime patrol aircraft built by Canadair called the CP-107 Argus. Piston engine, crew of 15 , long endurance. How long? One record flight was 31 hours. Now we all know that in Greek mythology, Argus was a giant creature with a hundred eyes. Additionally, Armourers will inform you of the fact that Argus also had 15 azzholes.
From January 8 to 24, 2024, Sea Dragon 2024, a multinational joint anti-submarine exercise sponsored by the U.S. Navy and involving seven countries (the United Kingdom, France, Canada, India, Japan, and South Korea), was held at Andersen Air Base in Guam. The Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force's P-1 patrol aircraft unit won the anti-submarine warfare skills competition among the countries. This is the second consecutive victory following last year.
not an expert but I suspect it may have something to do with a fact that there are nearly 150 of them and placing that much stuff outside will create untold amount of drag. Not to mention it will needlessly subject them to elements for prolong time
If they follow the P3C, she'll be able to carry the AGM-84 Harpoon, and AGM-65 Maverick. The Weapon Bay is normally reserved for Depth charges, Quickstrike Mines, or Mk50 Torpedoes.
Yes, it all looks so very impressive. Finding submarines is very difficult from 35,000 feet. Flying at mach 0.8. Even with all the advanced systems. A lower and slower airplane like Japan's four turboprop amphibious aircraft is needed to find a truly modern submarine. It can have all the same advanced systems including a nice MAD boom.
You know they don’t have to fly that high or that fast when conducting a search for subs, right?!? Plus even those slower planes relied on advance systems, since subs usually don’t just sit on the surface of the water.
@@rifamycin Loiter time for a 737, isn't great. Of course they can go lower and slower. Really bad for fuel economy. It may seem counterintuitive, but it actually uses more fuel to do that. So it depends on range, onboard fuel capacity and the availability of midair refueling. Assuming of course that the capability is included with the P-8 package modifications to the 737 airframe. Which makes the P-8 great for area three dimensional ASW coordination. Yet, you still need low level sono buoys as well as platforms like a P-2 or P-3, or S-3 for more direct detection and prosecution of submarine contacts.
@@scottjackson5173 True. The P-8 does have the ability to mid-air refuel. I would think that if the navy wanted a turbo prop plane for this roll they would have just converted a C-130 for the job. The only other advantage I see with the P-8 is the availability of parts due to its relationship with 737s.
@@rifamycin I would have been shocked if the P-8 was NOT capable of aerial refueling. As for the rest? Perhaps there is a new top secret feature to the P-8, that makes all the difference. Trouble is, I just don't believe that. There is a rapidly growing body of evidence that the DOD is dominated by cronyism, corruption, and incompetence. As part, and parcel to politically motivated removal of highly qualified people. Look at the decks of USN carriers. Where are the long range bombers? The long range fleet interceptors, or the long range ASW aircraft? Anyone who thinks that we can win a war against a true blue water navy? One that enjoys greater numbers rapid loss replacement, as well as, stolen US military technology? Without the very BEST we can build? Nations that assume that they can't lose a war? Usually lose that war. We are headed not only on course to WW-III, but towards our ultimate defeat! After all? If the United States is not a great country? Why would anyone be willing to die, in a war to defend it?
@@rifamycin Unfortunately I think that the PRIMARY purpose of picking the 737 airframe, is the 737 parts commonly available. To make the program a CHEAP, as possible. After all, it's peace time, then there is more money for sexier projects like the F-35.
@Dragonx0562 yup, I'm a sys admin at the p8 training center across from vp-30's hangar at NAS JAX. I see them taking off and landing all day long. Been seeing a bunch of Korean p8's around lately. They just had their big wigs with secret service escorts in our building recently for a tour. Even the simulators for this plane are a sight to behold. One of the coolest jobs I've ever had. Sucks I'm not allowed to talk about it much but opsec is critical
@@halberderdier8073 the door plug happened ONE TIME. One time, and it wasn’t even Boeings fault. It was Spirits fault, and oh yeah by the way they make fuselages for Boeing and Airbus both of which have models with door plugs.
I want a pilot in the Navy to drop a 2000 lb bombs that is laser guided at a Mean Old Battleship. I don't want a pilot to drop Sonobouys from 200 feet in a fogbank that extends up to 5000'. Therefore, a drone that drops Sonobouys in any weather, controlled from Shore. It even has a small liveboat.
Of all the defense equipment for Maritime Aircraft Patrols, only the P-8 Poseidon aircraft is the only one that is the most sophisticated and most the best no 1 in the world and has no competition
Most are biodegradable, recoverable, or become inert By inert, I mean they are made of meterial that won't negatively effect the environment and sink to the bottom of the ocean.
I don’t know why but I think it’s so cool having an airliner with missiles and other weapons. Makes them look awesome!
check out rapid dragon
@bdub1934 I never knew such a thing existed, just like a large box carrying a bunch of missiles. Pretty interesting
India has been using it in the Himalayan region too. It seems to be a potent surveillance aircraft to survey the high altitude ground based targets.
Omg it probably smells in that plane
My first really duty station in the Navy was with VP-11 out of Brunswick, ME. Back then we flew P-3 Orion, love seeing the new stuff
Live near Myrtle Beach, these are flying around here all the time between Charleston and Wilmington, NC. They fly over my house a few thousand feet up.
Went to an AWESOME airshow at that base 25-30 years ago, they had an f117!!!!!!
VP-1, Barbers pt Hawaii. P3 super B
That cockpit is virtually identical to the standard NG. It was entertaining spotting the differences.
Thanks America from india for selling us these beautiful and super powerful bird❤️
The P-8 Poseidon, nasty piece of military Aviation.
Nice. I love it. I was a Bravo IFT then one of the first P-3C Baseline IFTs. Loved every moment. VP-40, VP-17, and VP-10.
You can find them often operating at the black sea at the moment. They're a little hard to find as they don't display a callsign. Today they have one at the border of Romania , Moldova and Ukraine by the black sea operating with one of the British RC-135W for example...
I served on P-3s in VP-45 out of Jacksonville. Love seeing this new stuff! So cool.
I’ll be on this next year!! I’m so excited I’m becoming a naval aircrewman operator

They could shutdown 1 or more engines to stay on station longer. Not needed w' the P8.

Submarine Hunter 😎
As an AE in a VP squadron in the 70's, give me the P-3 Orion. What a bird that plane was and still is.
A great aircraft.
Indian Navy have these, latest ones....WoW!!! Wonderful Chinese Submarine Killer.
The Chinese sailors do that on their own. Didn't they just kill a crew by driving them into an obstacle they placed on the seafloor themselves?
Nice! Good to know just how good our guys tools are, thanks!
❤America's weapons is nothing compares 😍
Спасибо большое за видео. Ореон мне нравится больше. Особенно электронный

We have many anime, people who like Japanese culture in the United States
The best submarine hunter
Is another submarine.
We all need a couple of these, nobody can argue differently. NOBODY!
Как же он крут. Американскте технолошии во всей красе.
Nice video, very educative with footages from inside of the plane

お疲れ様です､いつも勉強になります
These depart Whidbey Naval Air Station in Washington state often, home of the 737 and P-8. Such an interesting platform, same with the E-7
Wow I had NO IDEA what a WEAPON this is!???? always thought of it as almost more of an AWAC type plane, nope it’s a KILLER!!!
ソノブイって自動で装填されて投下されるものと思っていましたが、まさか、手動でカートリッジを装填して投下していたなんて思いませんでした。
Same here I learned something as well
dad is an incredibly good aircraft with technology and weapons!
As an AX then AW then TACCO I logged over 4000 hours in P-3s, A’s, B’s and C’s. I’d kill to get a tour inside the P-8.
I remember NAS Brunswick well with VP 8, 11 and 23. On weekends the Stuff flew.
Yep, VP-10, ‘68-‘71.
Andy’s and The Heathwood.
Yes, I knew I was missing VP-10. I served with CPW-5 at the ASCAC.
These aircraft are also operated by the Royal Air Force with No.120 Squadron based at RAF Lossiemouth.
A little less of that background noise would be greatly appreciated...
👍 for the footage!
Beastly
*Spectacular*
Those built-in stairs are sweet though. MCAS, not so much.
737 NG , military modified! 👍
An angel for surface ships, a deathnail for submarines...but, they are working on an anti-aircraft-missile-system for subs, which launches AA-missiles from under the surface. Bad suprise.

Amazing Submarine hunters
My mom worked on p-3’s , still love the smell of jet fuel cause of it, she was an AM
Great vid, love it. That’s from a Brit.😀

Man, that's a nice airplane.
Its so powerful this submarines I like
I wonder why the buoys are kept in the crew compartment with manual loading and deployment instead of configured like underbelly hardpoints
not an expert but I suspect it may have something to do with a fact that there are nearly 150 of them and placing that much stuff outside will create untold amount of drag. Not to mention it will needlessly subject them to elements for prolong time
オプション兵器込み（AUV等）であればP8優れてるんだろうけど、軍事予算・人員が潤沢でない我が日本国は低速飛行が出来るP1の方が運用・コスパ的に最適解なのよね～
むしろ人手が足りない我が国こそ無人機を積極的に活用すべきと思うんだがな
And certainly for force projection in Japanese national waters.
Cool so its like the AC130 gunship but this one's for hunting subs. I didn't know about this. Submarines seem to be more and more vulnerable.
Canada just ordered 16 of those
WOW !!
Super !!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I wonder how much better these are at sub hunting than the old P3's were?
If I was in a Russian sub below in the depths with the p8 loitering above I would be very concerned
Explain to me please why this would be flying in circles over Mt Rainer in WA state on Oct 15th in the middle of the night for hours?
thank you friends from the United States Navy,s to support the WPSea
投射管のフタ閉め忘れて上昇したらえらいことになりそう…。
Obviously, there are sensors in all compartments
旅客機を魔改造って感じが良いですね！
I am guessing that those sonobuoy are single use and are not recovered and reused?
Do they self destruct or just sink to the bottom when the are done?
VP-22 and VP-47 both at Barbers Point any any years ago
Right On Go Army!
I'm pretty sure that's a Navy asset
Right On Navy @@JoeBribem
A *Weaponized Boeing 737* with sharp teeth 🦈
I know this song!! heard it on a video about cannons!
They are powerful
What? no video of the all-female P-8 DEI crew that ran the plane off the runway and into Kaneohe Bay??
What is the free fall chute?
That's to drop things out of that are not sonobuoys.
GO NAVY
So 5 missiles in the weapon bay and 4 under the wings
What missiles are they carrying?
Torpedoes and Depth charges
If they follow the P3C, she'll be able to carry the AGM-84 Harpoon, and AGM-65 Maverick. The Weapon Bay is normally reserved for Depth charges, Quickstrike Mines, or Mk50 Torpedoes.

Indeed, they are a prime target for enemy air defense. Even subs can now launch AD missiles.
