The P-8 utilizes a state-of-the-art acoustics sensor suite, sonobuoys, electronic support measures (ESM), inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) and the delivery of torpedoes for sub-hunting. The P-8 executes anti-submarine warfare (ASW) through an integrated sensor suite to conduct search, detection, classification, localization, tracking and attack of submarines. The P-8 is engineered for 25 years/25,000 hours in the harshest maritime flight regimes, including extended operations in icing environments. Boeing’s expertise in commercial fleet management and derivative aircraft sustainment provides customers with greater availability at a lower operational cost. The P-8 shares 86% commonality with the commercial 737NG, providing enormous supply chain economies of scale in production and support. The P-8 combines the most advanced weapon system in the world with the cost advantages of the most operated commercial airliner on the planet. The P-8’s performance and reliability delivers confidence in an uncertain world - in any condition, anywhere, anytime. Militaries that have selected the P-8 include the Republic of Korea Navy and German Navy.

Shorter transit times reduce the size of the Area of Probability when searching for submarines, surface vessels or search and rescue survivors. The P-8 can fly higher (up to 41,000 ft) and get to the fight faster (490 knots). ![]() ![]() The Boeing P-8 is truly a multi-mission maritime patrol aircraft, excelling at anti-submarine warfare anti-surface warfare intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance and search and rescue. ![]()
