E-2 Hawkeye: The Hummer You Don’t Mess With
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 июл 2022
- The Northrop Grumman E-2 Hawkeye is the Navy's all-weather, carrier-based tactical battle management airborne early warning, command and control aircraft. The E-2 is a twin engine, five crewmember, high-wing turboprop aircraft with a 24-foot diameter radar rotodome attached to the upper fuselage. Designed in the 1950s, the E-2 first flew in 1960 before entering service in 1964. The E-2 has been in production, in one variant or another, continuously since 1960 - giving the E-2 the longest production run of any carrier-based aircraft ever.
The E-2, which uses twin turbo-prop engines, also has earned the nickname “Hummer”, due to the distinct humming sound the prop engines make - which is easily discernible from the roar of a carrier’s jet engine fleet.
In addition, the sequel of new movie “Top Gun: Maverick”, featuring E-2D Advanced Hawkeye, even for a brief moment, makes a strong impression.

I was an OS on the carrier Independence CV-62. Always loved the E-2 C We had quite the capabilities with our ship board equipment, the E-2, the helo's with Sono Buoys and the P-3 Orion. Our job was to track and identify anything in the air, on the surface or sub-surface. The EA-6 Prowler was one of my favorites. The Cod. Our Task Force was a totally self-sufficient force which could project Naval Power for hundreds of miles in any direction. Mind you, I don't believe in Empire building. I believe that Defense is exactly what we should be doing. My Navy was responsible for keeping sea lanes open and free from any attack. The guys who operated our E-2's were top of the food chain. All very capable and professional. I can't answer for today's Navy but in the 1980's we were as formidable as a Navy could ever be.
I was a plane captain and " jet mech" on this bird from 76 - 80. Assigned to VAW-124 out of NAS Norfolk and served aboard CV-66 USS America.
I was also in VAW124, 1975 through 1978. Enlisted aircrewman, of course I must have known you.
I worked as an electrician on the F14 for 7 years. At night as soon as I came out of the ship and headed towards the flight deck and heard a Hawkeye running I would stop immediately and let my eyes adjust and find out exactly where the thing was. One of my biggest fears on that deck was walking into that big propped bird.
Saw one trap on the USS Coral Sea during 72-73 WestPac and Starboard main collapsed. Prop came apart and tore a nasty lice into the fuselage. Luckily he caught the wire.
Also had an F-4 from my squadron land gear up on foamed runway at Cubi Pt. that trip too. It's hard on the paint. I was an AME. Cheers.
The only safe way to go to flight deck during flight ops was from behind the island.
Fr they are annoying tho
The best Hummers I ever had were in Bangkok and Olongapo. Fly Navy !
Facts!!
I've been working as a mech on Hawkeyes for the last four years, VAW-120 and VAW-113, thanks for shedding some light on these glorious aircraft!
My dad worked at the wing of the Hawkeye for most of his Naval career, we still have many friends in the Navy working in this. One of them being a man with the Call sign “Princess” who’s I believe commander of one of the Hawkeye training squadrons. This plane is such a big part of my family and life in some ways and it’s nice to see these videos because I truly believe that it’s an underrated military aircraft in terms of public knowledge and recognition. Easily has been and definitely still is one of the most crucial aircraft to all of the Navy’s operations.
Hey! my dad worked on the dome & computer of the e2c hawkeye at northrop grumman and I agree with p much everything you said
@@hayden9876 Amazing! My dad also works at Nothrop Grumman but I don't know what project he works on because it's classified. He did apply for the E2 program but they weren't looking at the time
I served at VAW-120 under Princess! His real name is Captain Aaron P. Rybar. I never knew him personally, but he seemed like a good guy. He left the squadron about two years ago, not sure what he's up to now
@@Roset595 I actually DO know him personally! Used to help his wife and kids around the house when I was around 12 and we were stationed at the same place. Such a great guy and a wonderful family!
I flew one of the last deployments of the E-1B A/C aboard Ranger deploying to Vietnam 1972-73. Transitioned to the E-2B 1972.
mad dad was a mission Commander in the back of the Hawkeye
This is a clear example how a good airplane as long as it is being updated will remain for a long time: B-52, F-16, F-15, etc...
From 1976 to 1979 I was a intermediate level (I-Level) maintenance tech for the early warning radar system. I was later trained as an I-Level CAT-IIID tech and instructor. CAT-IIID was used for test and repair of various Grumman aircraft including the E-2 Hawkeye.
that's my dads plane!!
We have a B model at The Air Victory Museum in NJ. I couldn't believe how tight and cramped it was. The 3 operators stations in the aft section and the narrow aisle between the banks of electronics. The plane is so old up on the cockpit under each side window both the pilot and co-pilot have cigarette ash trays. 🇺🇸
Men's had awesome job to fly that if sky was clear and no worries, could just burn cigarettes and check everything going smoothly.
It's nice that some of these awesome builds were put to museum.
US has so long time handling of the best's plane's, so many countries trust their job. It's interesting to see under two year f35's becoming, but sad that f18's go away. Bodies will made to these in Finland, but design and parts are from US mostly. It's not just plane or fighter, it's part of link to stay alive and keeping our country safe.
Twing engines are always nice, but using one is light and cost effective.
Beautiful, Excelent.
Was an AMH in VAW-117. We had the B model. Based at Miramar and deployed on the Ranger for two cruises.
My dad was C.O. of the Brig at Miramar for a few years back in the early 2010's!
My mom used to call them Mary Poppins when we lived in VA beach as we lived near the flight approach to Oceana Navy flight base and would see them fly over.
The best Hummers I ever had were in Bangkok and Olongapo.

If during sensitive mission we may invert the active scan so passively low intensity sucking in signal around so analyze but if not careful the inverter is the key killed it during active or enemy can use during all active radar like mirror of high power operation
We had the E-1 on my first cruise 1968-'69 and the E-2 on my second cruise 1969-'70. I arrived on the ship in a C-2 Greyhound, which is the same airframe as the E-2. I also flew off the ship in the C-1, the same airframe as the E-1 and S-2. I doubt the C-1s are still around, but there are still some C-2s flying as CODs. Norah O'Donnell flew out to Nimitz on a C-2. I'm not sure, but I think the B-52 and C-130 are the only planes older than the C-2/E-2 and are still active. Great grandchildren could be flying the same aircraft that their great grandfathers flew. How's that for getting your money's worth?
John, I think you meant the C-1 was the same airframe as the S-2, not C-2. The S-2 Tracker, a venerable old ASW bird, was in the F model by the time the E-1 was developed. The old E-1 Tracer was what we affectionately called, "Stoof With a Roof". I'm sure you knew that, but I mention it for the benefit of those who didn't know.
@@jimtownsend7899 Actually, I had meant to say E-1. But, S-2 would have been just as accurate. Both the E-1 Tracer and C-1 Trader were derived from the S-2 airframe. We called our C-1 "Triple Nuts" as the side number was 000. It was also called Ranger Airlines. We had the E-1 on my first cruise and the E-2 on my second cruise. The E-2 is still providing the same service that it did over 50 years ago. Let's see the Navy try to put a big radome on the back of an F/A-18.
John, were you a commander in VAW124 aboard America circa 1976? If so I remember you. I was an enlisted aircrewman in the E2 and if you are the same Cdr. Slaughter I believe you were our XO then CO. Was that you?
@@walterrichmond6251 Sorry. I was enlisted. Started in 1st Division and then went to S-7. I made 3rd a month before coming back from my 2nd cruise. I made 2nd just 13 months later. Nice being in a critical rating. Just pass the tests and you get promoted. Oh, I was in USS Ranger (CVA-61).
Laser 📌 pin point bombing system
E1 was around far longer than 1964. >rolleyes
We should have made a whole family based on them. Not just the C-2 Greyhound for COD (also have it drop paratroopers and supplies). But also a refueling tanker. A maritime patrol/ASW plane like a carrier launched P3-Orion or P-8 Poseidon. An electronic surveillance and electronic warfare plane. And a medium bomber/missile truck. All with way more hauling capacity, fuel efficiency, range, and loiter time than a jet or helicopter. A turbo prop missile truck that can throw way more missiles at enemy aerial targets than a jet fighter can might be a cheap force multiplier, especially when accompanied by its Hawkeye, tanker, and electronic jamming siblings
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That was a strange ending.
I feel love donna summer 1977
Folding of airplane not flying automobile. Runway speed or VTOL vertical?
It was an E-2C in Top Gun, not a Delta
Top Gun Maverick, too?
If I remember correctly it was VAW-115, they only transitioned to deltas in 2022, Maverick was filmed several years before that
@donhancock4644 yes, the little cone on the top of the rotodome is a distinguisher of a Charlie, Deltas don't have them
@@Roset595 I can't really tell what squadron it's from, but it kind of looks like the liberty bell on the nose
Support is the best way to get my rethinking rethem inside and outside the door jam's Amen 💕🔙😳🆒
👍🏻
I was in charge of the datalink when I was on the USS Bunker Hill cg-52 back in the late 80s and those E2-C's were the worst radars to put in the Data link. At least back then.... absolutely garbage. Not even close to the AWACS.
I always heard nothing linked well with you guys.

Us military toys; people sleeping on streets and drug sellers all over the cities, public transport and airports all in miserable conditions and these guys playing million dollars of toys, doing nothing
Soviet Union collapsed, spending more money on weapon than on their people. U.S. is following in the same footsteps.
Aerial refuleing is riduculous, just buy more. The tankers cannot be anywhere near the bad guys, the airborne C3I can't be anywhere near the bad guys: so they just circle each other 1,000 miles or so away from the action?
Your comment is ridiculous. First, E-2s don't go anywhere near combat. They carry no weapons and have no purpose over a combat zone. They are standoff command and control platforms. To make that simple for you, they go high and they see far. Unclas figures state 300+ miles for detection and tracking, let alone C&C duties. AR lets an E-2, like any other platform, remain airborne longer, on station. "Buying more" doesn't solve anything. That's like buying more cars so you don't have to stop at a gas station. Yeah, doesn't make much sense does it?
