Boeing 737-800 aircraft extention: P-8 Poseidon airplane
Boeing’s P-8 Poseidon plane may look a lot like the company’s 737 but
it’s actually a highly advanced military aircraft that’s equipped to
hunt submarines. The U.S. Navy has just deployed several of the
airplanes to Japan to increase U.S. military presence around the
disputed Senkaku Islands, which Japan controls and China claims.
It’s the first ever deployment for the aircraft, which has been in development for nearly a decade. Here’s a look at the game-changing capabilities of the P-8.
It’s been about 40 years since Navy reconnaissance officers flying the P-3C Orion have gotten a whiff of that new airplane smell.
