The F-4 Phantom II is the only aircraft used by both the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds and U.S. Navy Blue Angels jet demonstration teams.

http://imgproc.airliners.net/photos/airliners/3/0/5/1579503.jpg?v=v40

In a surprise announcement today, the US Navy announced that the Blue Angels will transition from their current F-18 Hornets to unmanned F-47 aircraft for their 2018 airshow season. The team will still fly a full ‘delta’ aerobatic routine, including tight formations, using six of the cutting edge drones. The only difference is that the pilots will never leave the ground

I was a little surprised and don't think this move will be all that welcome to many airshow visitors but it is a sign of future times I suppose.

P-8 Poseidon maritime spyplane
http://i.imgur.com/ROOIXEh.jpg

[Mr Quatro]

The Poseidon P-8 only cost $150 million each. That's a lot better than the F-35, uh?


Why Russia and China Fear America's P-8 Poseidon Submarine Killer: http://nationalinterest.org/blog/the-buzz/why-russia-china-fear-americas-p-8-poseidon-submarine-killer-20877

http://nationalinterest.org/files/styles/main_image_on_posts/public/main_images/roblin_poseidon.jpg?itok=5qpqvny_

The P-8 is based on the 737-800ERX short-to-medium-range airliner. It typically has a flight crew of three and boosts stronger power generators for its onboard electronics. The Poseidon reportedly offers a much smoother ride than the Orion, thanks to its broader-swept wings and flight computers. Orion crews were often nauseated by the strong turbulence their low-altitude flight operations required.

While the P-8 does have a strengthened hull to operate at low altitude—though at reduced fuel efficiency compared to the P-3—it’s designed to perform most of its operation from high altitude, where the thinner atmosphere allows for greater fuel efficiency and a better vantage for some of its sensors. A Poseidon can loiter overhead at speeds as low as two hundred miles per hour, and can stay on station for extended times due to its in-flight refueling capability. However, with a maximum speed of 564 miles per hour, it can also dash two hundred miles per hour faster than the P-3 aircraft it is replacing.

The Poseidon’s primary payload is its diverse array of sensors. These include an APY-10 multi-mode synthetic aperture radar, which not only can track the position of ships over hundreds of miles away, but possesses a high-resolution mode which can spot submarine periscopes poking above the waves and even identify different classes of ships. An MX-20 electro-optical/infrared turret provides a shorter-range search option, while an ALQ-240 Electronic Support Measure (ESM) derived from a system onboard the EA-18G Growler functions as an electromagnetic sensor, particularly useful in tracking the positions of radar emitters.

A recent addition is the Advanced Airborne Sensor, a dual-sided AESA radar that can offer 360-degree scanning on targets on land or coastal areas, and which has potential applications as a jamming or even cyberwarfare platform.

A number of key systems on the P-8 are designed to track submerged submarines. A rotary launcher system in the rear of the P-8 can dispense sonar buoys into the water. A recent upgrade allows P-8s to employ new Multistatic Active Coherent buoys that generate multiple sonar pulses over time, allowing for greater endurance and search range. The P-8 also has its own acoustic sensor, and even a new hydrocarbon sensor that can “sniff” for fuel vapor from submarines.

However, the P-8 lacks the tail-mounted MAD sensor of the P-3 Orion, useful for detecting the metallic hulls of submarines while flying at low altitude. Various reasons have been offered for its removal: the MAD weighed too much at 3,500 pounds, it did not fit with the high-altitude search profile of the P-8, or the new sensors on the P-8 rendered it unnecessary. However, the U.S. Navy is reportedly developing a variant of the an air launched drone, called the High-Altitude Unmanned Targeting Air System, which can carry a MAD sensor and transmit its findings back up to the P-8.

Five operator stations on the port side of the plane carry multifunction displays that can be configured to display whatever sensors and controls are most useful under the circumstances. The P-8’s computers are designed to fuse the data into a single coherent picture for the operators—and can then “push” that data to friendly ships and airplanes. This is a capability the U.S. Air Force has been struggling to integrate into its new E-3G radar planes. The P-3 is also designed to be especially compatible with Navy RQ-4N drones.

In the event of hostilities, the Poseidon can carry five missiles, depth charges or torpedoes in a rotary launcher in the rear hull, and six more on underwing racks. While the P-3 had to fly low to deploy its torpedoes, the P-8 can use a special High Altitude Air Launch Accessory to transform its Mark 54 324-millimeter lightweight torpedoes into GPS-guided glide bombs that can be dropped from altitudes as high as thirty thousand feet. These shed their wings upon hitting the water and hone in on targets using onboard sonar. Poseidons can also carry Harpoon AGM-184H/K antiship missiles with a range of 150 miles.

The RAF phased out its bomber version of the Canberra in 1972, but the aircraft was to soldier on as a reconnaissance plane for another three decades. The Canberras flew high-altitude observation missions in Northern Ireland, Bosnia and Kosovo, and also were also used in Afghanistan the early 2000s, some 50 years after the first Canberras entered service.

It had been only a year since Amelia Earhart had disappeared in the same waters. There is a theory that the Hawaii Clipper disappearance was the result of a hijacking-A popular theory with the media was that Japanese agents had slipped into the Clipper’s baggage compartment on Guam. The theory goes that they took control of the aircraft mid-flight and hijacked it to Truk Atoll by radical officers of the Imperial Japanese Navy where her fifteen crew members and passengers were murdered, then entombed within a slab of wet concrete on Dublon Island at Truk Atoll, and the American government continues to keep this secret from the Japanese government and the American people.

The US Navy has probably already experimented with making a submarine sound like dolphins to undersea sensors ...
of course a surface anti-submarine vessel wouldn't be fooled, but another submarine's passive sonar could be fooled.

USS Gerald R. Ford - Super Hornets Call The Ball[QUOTE]

That's some kind of nice video Tim, thanks ... did you see all of those heads turning every time a plane landed. I heard a rumor that Russia didn't believe the USN could land and recover jet fighter planes at night back in the 1950's and sent a Russian submarine to shadow our carriers in the Mediterranean to see if it was true.
My how times have changed now they are budgeting for the largest aircraft carrier ever built: artist concept included on the link

https://www.rbth.com/defence/2017/04/13/why-is-russia-creating-the-biggest-aircraft-carrier-in-the-world_741689

[QUOTE]The new "Shtorm" aircraft carrier – a.k.a. Project 23E000E – will be included in Russia’s next armament program for the 2019 to 2025 period. The aircraft carrier will go into service in the navy by 2030 and experts say that its potential base will be Severomorsk (1,880 km north of Moscow).
