Boeing P-8 Poseidon. This looks like a Boeing 737, but looks can be deceiving ! The P-8 is a highly capable 'sub hunter' , search and rescue, and maritime patrol aircraft that benefits from a high degree of structural commonality with its airliner cousin. It is used not just by the US Navy but by other armed forces such as the Indian Navy, the Royal Australian Air Force and the Royal Air Force. The RAF base their aircraft at RAF Lossiemouth in Scotland.
