Boeing P-8 Poseidon: America's Most Advanced Submarine Hunter
The Boeing P-8 Poseidon is an American maritime patrol aircraft derived from the Boeing 737-800 civilian aircraft.
The P-8 is armed with torpedoes, Harpoon anti-ship missiles, sonobuoys, and other weapons and operates in anti-submarine warfare (ASW), anti-surface warfare (ASUW), and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) roles.

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.
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)
Navy brat. Stationed at NAS Alameda (dad had San Jose there). Later dad was COMSeaBear out of NAS Jax.
They could shutdown 1 or more engines to stay on station longer. Not needed w' the P8.
@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.
I don’t know why but I think it’s so cool having an airliner with missiles and other weapons. Makes them look awesome!
That cockpit is virtually identical to the standard NG. It was entertaining spotting the differences.
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...
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.
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.
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.
The P-8 Poseidon, nasty piece of military Aviation.
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.
Nice! Good to know just how good our guys tools are, thanks!
I served on P-3s in VP-45 out of Jacksonville. Love seeing this new stuff! So cool.
Thanks America from india for selling us these beautiful and super powerful bird❤️

We have many anime, people who like Japanese culture in the United States
The most comfortable aircraft fighter in the world
Wow, great video.
Nice video, very educative with footages from inside of the plane
Great video, very comprehensive yet interesting!
*Spectacular*
お疲れ様です､いつも勉強になります
We all need a couple of these, nobody can argue differently. NOBODY!
Submarine Hunter 😎
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?
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.
Man, that's a nice airplane.
Как же он крут. Американскте технолошии во всей красе.
The best submarine hunter
Is another submarine.
Beastly
Boeing makes the coolest looking Airplanes together with Airbus
Спасибо большое за видео. Ореон мне нравится больше. Особенно электронный
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.
These aircraft are also operated by the Royal Air Force with No.120 Squadron based at RAF Lossiemouth.
My mom worked on p-3’s , still love the smell of jet fuel cause of it, she was an AM
❤America's weapons is nothing compares 😍
旅客機を魔改造って感じが良いですね！
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。
el humano es mas intuitivo que la maquina, puede detenerse o actuar de inmediato
Same here I learned something as well
自動収納の昇降ステップ凄いね。ダイカエ手段の縄梯子みたいな物も備えているのかな？Ｂ１７には油圧装置が故障した時のために手回しクランクが着陸主 輪には付いていたよね？
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.
Very cool
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.
P-8AとP-1は戦術思想が違うからどちらが優れているかとはわからないけど、各国の海軍、空軍はP-8Aを選択した。本来の戦術思想に沿った運用方法で活用されているのが米国と豪州、その他の国では単独もしくはMQ-9と併用される。海自も将来はP-1とMQ－9Bとで併用運用される。哨戒機はもちろん機体も重要だけど搭載しているシステム、ソノブイの方が重要なので日本の沖電気が作っているソノブイはめちゃくちゃ性能がいい（絶対に開示されない国家機密）。
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.
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
A little less of that background noise would be greatly appreciated... 👍 for the footage!
Amazing Submarine hunters
Right On Go Army!
I'm pretty sure that's a Navy asset
Right On Navy @@JoeBribem
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!!!
Very powerful weapon. Needs air support to protect it though.
Indeed, they are a prime target for enemy air defense. Even subs can now launch AD missiles.
@@halberderdier8073 Which is why the P-8 can launch torps from a much greater altitude and distance now.
What air defense is in the open seas lol
@@azulaquaza4916 warships with long range AA missiles.
@@azulaquaza4916 Some Russian subs are equipped with SAMs.
I wonder how much better these are at sub hunting than the old P3's were?
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.
A *Weaponized Boeing 737* with sharp teeth 🦈
Its so powerful this submarines I like
What is the free fall chute?
That's to drop things out of that are not sonobuoys.
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
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.
They are called “fuck around and find out” any questions? Russian polisher of knobs.
That music tho
How long does the buoy’s transmit for?
that's Classified
Putin could be reading the comments
Most of them are programmable for 2, 4 or 8 hours. Then they scuttle themselves so enemies can't recover them.
A year. 😅
VP-22 and VP-47 both at Barbers Point any any years ago
737 NG , military modified! 👍
thank you friends from the United States Navy,s to support the WPSea
💪
Sleeping all day. Awaiting morning
👍👍👍
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.
Either commercial or military the 737 is deadly
is opsec not a thing anymore?
They’re not revealing anything of significance in this video.
KZhead 3rd Worlders think they’ve figured out American secrets, lol. Fuck around and get you some. No balls
Canada just ordered 16 of those
Why do they fly them over the continental USA so often ? I see them take off from Jacksonville Florida to Buffalo New York often on flight apps.
NAS Jacksonville is the home of VP-30, the Training Squadron for the VP fleet. so most of those were probably training flights for the flight crews
I hope the panels stay on in flight
Simply beast
Jako jako ozbiljno srestvo
Just an military version of the 737. Suppose to do ASW, but people want it to become a bomb truck
Do they recover all that stuff or are they littering?
The Torpedo smells you.
6 orc subs in black sea they could practice on
Moskva, Vasily Bekh, Sergey Kotov, Tsezar Kunikov and 2 Tunets class Patrol boats?
Is this how they found the whistleblower?
No submarines can beat any stealth aircraft in terms of stealth.

Wish the Navy would bring back Nuclear Depth Charges.
Do the doors stay on this one😮
That’s a pretty stupid comment
@@cruisinguy6024 Well you are on KZhead, what are you expecting? 🤔
@@cruisinguy6024Boeing's situation provokes these comments.
@@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.

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.
So many sonabuoys and associated launchers; yet only five torpedoes ???
Need a lot more sonobouys to located the target, than you do to sink it.
@@Dragonx0562 no doubt: but a "25 to 1" ratio ?? ( are the torpedoes so very good OR the methods of detection quite bad ? )
@@r.b6170 The UK-made Spearfish torpedo goes 80 knots.
@@NorthForkFisherman "spearfish" is a "heavyweight" torpedo; the kind which only submarines fire. It wouldn't fit in this particular bay. The torpedoes that this particular aircraft releases ( and indeed all ASW aircraft ) are the size of those ( and often the same type ) fired from surface vessels. Spearfish torpedo is "twice the length" and probably 3 times the weight of the torpedoes attached to this aircraft.
@@r.b6170 Exactly. But they too are highly advanced now. One version on this bird is designed rather like a glide bomb that can be dropped at a safe stand-off distance to prevent any possible AA response from the boat they're hunting. So without access to and releasing classified info, I'd say that have damn good torps for the weight and mission limitations imposed.
But is it as good as the Nimrod was?
It's much newer. The Nimrod was good, but is dated now.
Lets watch the Wheels fall off and then the wings. Boeing ! boooooing!
What military doesn’t have a Poseidon?
Boeing... All their stuff is circumspect now. Hope it works
Поседон быстро разбирется с российскими подлодками он для этого и знает где они есть.
Skip the dam music and let us linsen to whats happens !

日本のＰ１より、確かに安いんだけど、反面ソノブイの消費が半端ないはず。 また、その回収任務も半端でなくなる。 実戦レベルでどうなるか疑問だ。
