- Multiple clips of E-2C Hawkeyes during land based refueling, and launch/landing aboard U.S. Navy aircraft carriers. The Northrop Grumman E-2C Hawkeye is a twin-turboprop plane designed to be an airborne early warning and control platform. It has advanced radar and surveillance capabilities which allow it to detect enemy aircraft and missile activity, and communicate these threats to friendly aircraft and land forces.

This plane was made by Grumman. The SAME company who built the Lunar Excursion Module od LEM (the module that landed on the moon)
I lived 1/2 mile from the end of the runway in Bethpage, NY where they were built. So these planes (along with the F-14, and F-6) used to fly SUPER low over the top of my house. I could wave to the pilots (and they would wave back) Grumman employees over 85,000 people in the plant during the 60s and was a GREAT company to work for. The plant was a 365/24/7 operation. The enployeed whole families too! It was such a shame that the plant closed down and left long island a pure bedroom community
I was an enlisted aircrewman in the E2-C with VAW 124, Had 222 traps on USS America. You’d be amazed the capability it had in the mid-70s. Great plane, a blast to fly in, the good old days.
Nice video. Thanks for not ruining it with annoying music. Love the sound of those turboprops.
I served on the USS MIDWAY CVA-41 1974- 1975. I saw these Beauties take off, land, take off every day . All purpose, All feeling, All United States Navy USS MIDWAY CVA-41 R-Division. Mark V. Gutierrez.
mark v gutierrez Thank you for your service! People that work on carriers usually don’t get near enough recognition.
@@markvgutierrez24 I have a question for the navy. Rn I'm 14 and I wanted to know if navy pilots can prefer the plane they end up flying, or are they just assigned? Thank you for your time even if you may not know the answer to my question, thank you very much for your service.
@@childish8469 Before the Piolts get to the Carrier, they have a idea what they may fly and train for it before hand. Once they start flying a certain plane they will stay with it unless there commanding Officer tells them of a new command and plane. At Sea things change Daily. At Sea us the best. You know what your suppose to do and it is all in the Morning, Hot Coffee, Hot eggs, Hot Bacon. Good Sea fresh Air. No mainland Bullshit, no wives, Just girlfriends in every port.Your in the U.S. Navy. Yokosuka Japan, USS MIDWAY 🇺🇸 CVA-41 Repair Division, Pipe shop. Mark Vincent Paul Gutierrez.
@@markvgutierrez24 ok, thx soo much. And thx for your service.
Saw 2 of these flying with nearly wings touching near the Jersey shore just outside of NY this afternoon. Maybe at 1000 feet. They really move, in and out in no time.
Nice to see the Bells!
VAW-115 '92 - '94 Line Shack
Insanely awesome
In war, who ever detected first, lose. Plane like this are very vital in times of conflicts.
Amazing aircraft.
Jesus, that's a lot of blades! Just imagine the torque on that beauty!
And the way that the wings fold in and out is pretty cool.
Wow, just WOW.... Thanks, USN...! Gordon in Maryland
My dad flew this plane off the American Carrier back in the 60 and 70’s. I miss you so much Dad! I know this was close to your heart when you had to leave us.
That's a powerful SPLIT-SHAFT with 8 variable pitch bladed prop.
Those propellers are unreal
I'm still amazed on now the foldable wings (the joints) can handle all of the loads as well as fixed wings.
Do the wings have additional locking mechanisms besides the rotating joint?
Yes both extended and locked to the tail.
Where the wing splits off the center section there are 4 large hydraulic actuated pins that lock into place along the front and rear wing spar. They have not ever failed as far as I know. 100% reliable
Bill Mitzmacher Cool, thanks! I'm amazed the hinge and the locking mechanism are that sturdy! Unfortunately I can't find much information about these hinges via google, I'd like to know more about WW2 and modern aircraft for comparison.

Man can do any thing
Some plane captains will be proud to have this video when they get older
Excellent
tah plane is a real jewel
Was in VAW-112 during the 80s as avionics tech / aircrew (USS Kitty Hawk / USS Nimitz). West Pac '85, World Cruise '87, West Pac/IO '88
Beautiful plane! Was lucky enough to catch one flying near my house a few days ago.
I was in VAW-113 during the 80’s as an avionics tech. Those were the days! Great airplane.
That's a wild spot for the SPR.
Think of my Navy time everyday. Still have my "holdbacks" from from first cat-shot on Kitty Hawk on bedroom dresser.
Those props would make great ceiling fans!

I don't think I have ever seen a plane with 8 propeller blades per engine, amazing.
At full speed it's 147 blades per second
@@Roset595 Damn...
I Like The NP200 Propeller
Beautiful ✈️
I like how they put end at the end to let you know it was the end.
i would have no idea if they didnt
@@kittuete ģ
Inflight refueling ability in the D model, up to nine hour missions and service beyond 2040 is just wild to hear. Sons and daughters of previous Hawkeye drivers would not be shocking.
I love the look of those damn props
holy hell
epic.
Excellent video, thank you.
I found this information on my LinkedIn profile : Honoring Navy Lt. Miroslav S. Zilberman died nine years ago today (April 2, 2010) after his E-2C Hawkeye crashed into the Arabian Gulf on March 31, 2010. The recovery effort was abandoned on April 2, 2010 and his body was not recovered. Please share this post to honor him so that he is not forgotten.
31, of Columbus, Ohio
These things are loud. I live 3 miles from my navy base and can hear these props spinning all night
Night ops with those spinning blades of death must be a real hoot...
Jeremy Coppin they have lights on deck 😂 but no, even day ops with those spinning blades of death is bad lol one wrong move and you’re a human smoothie on deck.
Incrid Dazer The Flight Deck is one of the most dangerous places to work in the world. I was in the V 4 division (Fuels) on the USS John F Kennedy in the early 70's
exnavyphotog thank you for your service and information. Any service on these types of careers is dangerous. Day or night.
Jill Very dangerous. The hazard pay is not enough. A sailor died I think last year from a flight deck accident.
Very smooth flight...
i love dis plen!!111!!!
Power
I don't know why, but i somehow love the look of this airplane
beautiful
Damn big turbo prop
big prop go SPIN
VAW-122... Good old days
Air power 🙌🏼
o Señora
Love This from 77.
Best turbocharger prop engine ever sea👆👆👆👆👆
Amazing plane. I want one.
😂😂😂😂😂
It’s already stressful to maneuver a plane on a carrier, and that plane it Big

Bruh what up with your avatar pic?
They should of made this a Transfomer! I guess the radar dome could be a shield in robot mode. What!?? I was a kid in the 80's. Also a paratrooper on the 90's.😁👍🏿 Edit: Then again looking at it harder, it would have been a crappy GoBot!🤷🏿♂️
My son worked on the Hawkeyes (BlueTails)
Maintenance crew or pilot?

E2C or SAAB erieye, which one do you guys think is the best?
I saw one of these things fly over my house and I was wondering what this was
Dominik. toje. hustý. :-)
05:17 she is shakin the tail like a nervous dog who can't wait any longer to go and get the ball
I really miss that life.
awesome
Power plane
Who Plays Turboprop Flight Simulator?

Used to.
Bro do you even 1to1 power to mass ratio

What help the hawkeye plane?
0:20 - 0:30 one propeller needs more lubricant IMO.
B-roll, the movie...
So that's why they call it a hummer. Are the number of blades for putting fuel efficiency over speed? All the sims I play have them hovering around as high as possible to get the best radar horizon.
More blades reduce the vibration
Ah. Better radar picture that way, or is it just to increase pilot or frame's endurance?
5:26 Go E-2C Hawkeye
Turbo prop flight sim
The most expensive plane in the Navy
Nope, E2-C about 90 million, E2-D last I saw was around 250 millon.
That's my old squadron.
may bay ...thật đã
What was the original airframe for the E2C?
Umm, the E-2A and E-2B. As far as I know the E-2 is it's own design. The C-2 Greyhound though was derived from the E-2.
they sound more like a hornet than the hornets

R2-D2 Hawkeye!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!
Same engine as C130J?
sounds the same Pratt and Whitney turboprops that are on the c130
Its a Rolls Royce, the engine its self is relatively quite, the props are the same and where angry bee sound is from.
identical engine T56 turbo Prop
Different version of the T56 but the same basic design. 8 blades props have a bit different sound than 4 bladed
No, they’re not.

In California we refuel aircraft without PPE?
Naval bases are federal land
E-2D?
kawakuni1 these are all c’s. E-2D’s are still in the testing phase.
There's any plans for a replacement ?
Are there any plans for replacement?
Boeing, and Lockheed ( the two companies who will dominate US Aviation markets currently ) dont have any contracts to build new models or bodies for EW planes, but the closest replacement would be the E/A-18 Growler, but give it a decade and we’ll see new planes that will carry the role of the Hawkeye.
Imperial Gaming Nope! Growler is not a replacement to the E2C, it's the E2D. Growler's role is electronics warfare while E2C/D is early warning (radar) a/c.
Nope, Northrop Grumman aircraft.
Ineke Mateman! Are there any "planes" for replacement?
what's the giant circle thing on top
An umbrella to protect the pilots if it's raining
A float for landing on water.
Donut. Very tasty.
But what is that round plate for ?
@ItzB okay
VAW-88 E2B im that old
That was in the 80s, thank you for your service my friend.
MYy father was in VAW-77

Why'd they fold the wings? They're not on the carrier, space isn't an issue.

I’ve often wondered how she’d fly minus all her gear and dish. Bet that’s a bit faster
That's what the C2 is. Same engines and wings but with a big hollow fuselage for hauling passengers
Is this an E2-C or a “D”?
I had to look close, but it's a C. The Navy generally puts aircraft type on tail and in this case, above the Bureau #
Charlies have a cone on top of the dome in the middle, Deltas have a flat dome
2:03 - Iwakuni, Japan
What this plane are for?
@ItzB oh thx for the explanation
E42
A marinha do Brasil deveria adquiri os aviões, E-2c hawkeye a ir Creta tornozelo plane. Seia bom para o Brasil.
What's its use? Somebody tell me, why does it have a stage over it?
Early warning system... VAW 122 '76-'79
The big circle is a radar antennae for detecting enemies from far away
A swam od bèeeeeeeeeees
I wonder if anyone was chopped up by those blades

please could you give to chilean navy only four hundred units of this beautiful or handsome airplane? best regards
Anyone tell me why the Hawkeye has a white cross painted on its nose? What's it for?
bigdmac33 marks like that help the landing signals officer recognize the particular aircraft type, since it’s similar to the COD aircraft, but handles differently.
@@johnkaufman5146 No, the plus on the nose indicates a 427 engine vs the older 425 engine. The 427 is more powerful and requires different correction calls from the LSO.
Bob Cranston I’d seen something similar on an A-6 vs an EA-6 B, but didn’t know about the Hawkeye. Thanks
To remind the PCs that God is watching
Do these planes get shot at? They seem important, like a lightbulb on a Christmas tree, without this their eyes are gone
