This is the final part.
The US-2 descends into the sea again, moves on the water, and keeps on starting and leaving.
US-2, which flew away and disappeared from view, seemed to have made several turns over Futami Bay.
Thank you for watching so many.

I was stationed in Iwakuni for many years. I loved watching the JMSDF practice water landings and takeoffs on the surrounding waters.
Wow.
You have a great career.
It is a great honor for you to watch this video.
Thank you very much.
So was i 1978 to 1981 with the crash crew
I loved watching that, too! USMC and USN. Briefly at Iwakuni, about 1976.
Hi, a lot of people are commenting on the short take off. This is because US-2 is more unique than you even dreamed. It's a five engine active lift-augmented aircraft. 4 engines for propulsion, 4500 hp each, and one for active lift augmentation (also called Boundary Layer Control), 1300 hp. You can hear the lift-augmentation engine whining in the video, and you can see its intake/exhaust in the bulge at the wing root. This fifth engine runs a centrifugal fan (think 1300 hp leaf blower) to supply high pressure air to the flaps and also to the tail control surfaces of the aircraft. By blowing very high velocity air off these surfaces the coefficient of lift is doubled - US-1 achieves lift coefficient of 7. It can generate over twice the lift per unit wing surface of comparable size aircraft. Very high lift also keeps the wing small so the high speed performance is exceptional (for an amphibian, that is). Thanks to the low minimum flight speed, radically short take-off and very fast climb, the US-1 can operate in deep wave troughs of high seas. To my knowledge it's the only aircraft in the world operating today with such a system. I can imagine it must be horrifically expensive to build!
Thank you for watching.
And thank you for the very detailed explanation.
I can't speak a foreign language, so I read it with a Google translation. This reply also uses Google's translation.
As a Japanese, I was very happy and honored to have overseas people praise me for the best performance in the world.
In fact, many countries around the world are paying attention to this flying boat, but it seems that it is difficult to find a buyer because it is expensive.
The unit cost is about $ 96 million.
However, it is said that it is making a low-priced version for India.
Great insight..thanks...nice bit of kit...
@@palfab962ify Yes, wild stuff indeed. I've studied just about every strange device or system ever installed on aircraft and the lift augmentation system of the US-2 is probably my all time favorite. It's complex but the sheer efficiency and effectiveness of the system is breathtaking. By efficiency I mean that the augmentation system is actually very low power compared to the 4 turboprops (4x4000 hp compared to 1x1300 hp) while having an effect on the lift that is disproportionate to the power invested.
Don’t quote me but I think they call that “augmented” lift boundary layer control.
How can it generate twice the lift per surface compared to other airplane ? The lift increase is mainly due to accelerated air (more airspeed = more lift) coming from airplane engine (dedicated or not, see F-104 for instance). But the actual wing itself sure cannot generate twice the lift under the same conditions. That's not how it works.
何度見てもUS2の滑走距離の短さには驚かされる。
Разбега.
「滑水開始まだかな〜」と10秒ずつスキップしてたら、その10秒の間にもう滑水終わって離水しているという。

Greetings from the USA! Amazing footage of an amazing plane. The sight of this plane taking off in a cloud of spray is breathtaking.
Thank you for watching my video.
I know most would disagree, but there's really something beautiful about that plane! It's such a proud looking beast of an aircraft, and I was truly stunned by how little space it needed to take off! Thanks for the video :-)
Thank you for watching my video.
Самолёт похож на Тоторо.
@@user-uc5so7bf8t I can totally see it! 😂
Most agree,, why would you think otherwise ???
Shinmeiwa’s predecessor was Kawanishi. Kawanishi built the H8K flying boat, which had 50% more range then the current US-2. Its speed was also very good, being only 50 mph slower than the most modern example. Keep in mind that the H8K first flew in 1941, almost 80 years ago!
It ’s familiar.
Your comment is a great reference.
I look forward to working with you.
Thank you for watching and commenting.
That looks like a modernised WW2 design. The head on view as it taxied afloat looked like it was one of those Japanese cartoons. Great! 👍
If you're in a liferaft in the pacific somewhere I'd bet you'd be glad to see it. 🙂👍
@@TeddyBear-ii4yc One of these rescued a USAF F-16 pilot, who had to eject over open water beyond the range of rescue helicopters. No other current allied aircraft could have accomplished this.
@@redrust3
Because it had the range to get out there and could land on water next to him! 👍
I ended up here after hearing about Chichi Jima in WW2. I'd never heard of it before.
Cheers
２式大艇の子孫ですよね。世界一の性能であることは現場の日米両国パイロットなら承知している。もしよろしければ貴国にも導入如何ですか?。宜しくお願い申し上げます。
That is a beautiful piece of machinery & engineering......
That take off was surreal!
Thank you for these videos! The US-2 is such a phenomenal aircraft. The short takeoff run and initial climb rate are fantastic. The lift produced by those wings is amazing!
Plus, great camera work - some excellent framing, especially at the very end.
I am very honored to say that.

I always have regretted that flying boats went out of service. Good to see that some countries still use them! A very impressive machine too.
Thank you for watching and comments.
I also want to keep the skills of Japanese flying boats, but in reality, there are a lot of difficulties and it seems to be in a difficult phase.
One of the reasons is that it is difficult to sell overseas due to high cost due to high quality.
(I'm replying using Google's translation software.)
keroza emon there is the Cl-515, and also those by Russian, but both are also unpopular, and don’t perform as well as this aircraft does.
@@kerozaemon The US should order a bunch of these for maritime search and rescue; phenomenal and beautiful flying boat!
I am sure this aircraft can hold more fuel and cargo room then the old WWII Catalina, but I love her look...
Thank you for the wonderful video! I love the US-1 and US-2 so much. They're proper flying boats, not float planes as we mostly get today. So I'm really happy Shin Meiwa keeps the spirit of flying boats alive with these beauties! Also, very impressive STO thanks to the boundary layer control system. Would love to see them over here in my country. Greetings from Germany!
Danke aus Deutschland.
Ich fühle mich sehr geehrt.
Sie sind mit US-2 sehr vertraut.
Deutschland ist eine der weltweit führenden Technologiemächte
Wenn Sie Lust dazu haben, können Sie ein ausgezeichnetes Flugboot bauen.
Gibt es keine Nachfrage, weil es kein Inselland ist?
Da Japan ein Inselland ist, ist die Existenz eines solchen Flugzeugs von wesentlicher Bedeutung. Besonders auf abgelegenen Inseln wie Chichijima, wo ich wohne.
Wir werden weiterhin US-2-Videos hochladen, wenn wir die Gelegenheit dazu haben. Wir freuen uns daher auf Ihre weitere Unterstützung.
Vielen Dank für das Anschauen und Kommentieren. (^^) /
Thank you from Germany.
I am very honored.
You are very familiar with US-2.
Germany is one of the world's top technology powers
If you feel like it, you can make an excellent flying boat.
Isn't there demand because it's not an island country?
Since Japan is an island country, the existence of such an airplane is essential. Especially on remote islands like Chichijima where I live.
We will continue to upload US-2 videos if we have the opportunity, so we look forward to your continued support.
Thank you for watching and commenting. (^^) /
Once was a time when seaplane were about as common as land based ones. Nice to see that you can still find them.
Thank you for watching.
And
Thank you for a very meaningful comment.
It's not a seaplane. It is an amphibious flying boat.
A time when small runways were less prevalent
Nice to see that seaplanes are not out dated and still useful. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for visiting.
I am very honored.
Amazingly short take off run! Growing up on the West Coast of Canada I've seen many float planes and flying boats through the decades. From an elderly N3N-3, Cessna 180 on floats, Beechcraft B-18 on floats, Beaver, Turbo Beaver, Otter, Twin Otter, Grumman Goose, Grumman Albatross to the ponderous Martin Mars. None got up on the step and then airborne as quickly as this beautiful aircraft.
Thank you for watching.
I am glad that you were pleased.
Hot dam. That big thing jumps right out of the water. Very nice 👍
What an amazing airplane! The best amphibian in the world! The blown surfaces give it spectacular STOL performance on take offs and landings. The sea spray from the downward exhaust of the blown flaps makes it quite a sight to watch. It makes it the safe craft amphibian because gets off the water so quickly and lands, stoping quickly. I even read there was a proposed 100 seat passenger version. “That” would have been fascinating!
very impressive and fast take off... love the shape of the US-2.
Thank you for watching and commenting.
I am very happy as if I was complimented.
It's a difficult world with corona, but let's do our best for each other.
My great grandmother was a 2nd cousin to Glenn Curtiss (the man who invented and patented the stepped hull flying boat back in 1913). He also patented the amphibious feature of having retractable wheels on the flying boat. :-)
Really.
It ’s a great and wonderful family.

amazingly short takeoff - got a lot of GRUNT that thing !
It just leeps out of the water, an incredible aircraft
Only those familiar with airplanes and aerodynamics will understand the value of this amphibian.
You are one of them.
worthy of respect.
The engineering on these things has always amazed me. The way they throw the exhaust gas over the flaps to shorten the takeoff roll is an example of something that you don't see very often today, and it certainly gives this huge bird a very impressive takeoff performance.
You look amazing.
You understand this mechanism so much.
I am very honored to have seen this video by those who are so familiar with it.
Thank you for watching and commenting.
The exhaust vents under the flaps.
Even before WWII the Japanese Flying Boats demonstrated advanced engineering principles , Several were captured and taken to Norfolk Virginia USA where they were studied and later mothballed, finally being given back to the Japanese Government in the 1960,s
It’s not exhaust. The lift augmentation is by cold air blown by a dedicated 5th engine in the wing root. The engine spins an enormous centrifugal blower with ducting to flaps and to tail control surfaces, too.

Thank you for watching.
This is a very nice comment.
Fantastic video. No stupid music or annoying robo-narration. I love prop driven flying boats (amphibian in this case, I guess), too bad so few countries use them anymore. Like others, I was amazed by how quickly that plane got airborne and climbed.
As of this writing this video has 94 dislikes. What the hell is wrong with people? Why would this video get a dislike? If you don't like aircraft, don't watch, but why "dislike" it?
hank you for your sincere message.
I am very honored.
I sometimes add music to my videos, but this time there were so many videos that I couldn't keep up with my work.
The result seems correct.
No good, No good, probably it is a “jealousy” for this flying boat.
I think so.
Nothing quite like the sight and sound of a big flying boat. Glad Japan still has a few. and this clip without music is just great. 👍👍
Probably most places have gone to helicopters. This one though can go long distances to rescue, can load a lot more people, probably use less fuel, doesn't need a runway to land. Considering Japan has a lot of small islands far out and too rocky for a strip or even a pad these make sense. Also considering they have a huge fishing fleet that goes out hundreds of miles they would work better than helicopters for rescue.

Thank you for your sincere comments.
That leads to future motivation.
Wow. Take of run in 6 seconds....very impressive...
Thank you very much for watching my video.
4 big Engines/props
Show off take off with light weight.
We exspect less :)
My father in law flew Catalina flying boats during WWII for the Australian airforce (stripped of all armour to give them maximum range). On a bad day, loaded with mines and fuel, it could sometimes take miles to get unstuck from the water. He told me he bent a few planes during take offs and especially landings in rough water.
Hell yea thats what i was goin to say that thing can take off out of swimming pool... very impressive
everyone.
Thank you for watching and commenting.Can you see this too?
US-2 can be almost stationary in the air if there is a headwind.
czcams.com/video/rmWwW9FxLqE/video.html
Wow! That take off was very impressive. I’m a sea plane pilot and I’ve never gotten off the water that fast.
Wow. How honored it is to receive comments from airplane riders.
Thank you for watching and commenting.
See all the spray? There's a 1,300 horsepower boundary layer control blower that provides forced air to the flaps, maintains laminar flow at very low air speeds. The US-2 can do amazing things ...
It's a testimony to the sound wing design and the awesome power of the 4 Rolls-Royce AE 2100J turboprops generating 3,424 kW (4,592 h.p.) each.
A lot of horsepower and boundary layer flow creating an extremely short takeoff, Wow!
Well I doubt a beaver can perform like that tbh.

The US-1A was always a favorite of mine as a child. Something about a flying boat, proper. With the US-2, Shinmaywa has built themselves a fine craft.
Thank you for watching my video.
Thank you for your comments.
Wow what an incredibly short take-off!
That's right.
Although the water separation distance is nominally 280 meters
It seems that the water is actually separated at a distance shorter than 200 meters.
When I was a kid my grandma's house was on a hill overlooking San Diego Bay (this was in the early 1950s). The Navy had some PBM Mariners stationed at North Island and they would take off from the bay, fly out over the channel and out to sea. It was fascinating to see such a large and ungainly-looking aircraft pull itself out of the water and into the air. It seemed like they would never get airborne - what a contrast with this new seaplane! Actually, the successor to the PBM, the P5M, bears a striking resemblance to the US2, except that it had only 2 piston engines instead of 4 (or 5) turboprops.
Thank you for watching and commenting.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful memories.
She is beautiful! Didn't know that anyone was still working on the flying boat concept. Best wishes.
Thank you for watching.
And thank you for your kind comments. .
I learned a lot from this video. My experience is with single engine seaplanes. The floats always leak due to the pounding they get in high speed taxi, takeoff, and landing; so the first thing you have to do is pump out the compartments. I think I see that this craft has a double hull, the outer bottom to take the impact of the water and the inner hull for reliable flotation. I think I see the double bottom can retain the water for dropping on fires, or drain immediately for short takeoff. Thanks and I wish I could kick the tires on this beauty!
Thank you for a very good discussion.
Certainly, this aircraft is designed to handle disasters such as fires. It is amazing to understand that just by looking at the aircraft in the video.
I am very honored to have such a sincere person like you enjoyed my video.
Fascinating aircraft. I had to look at the map to see where the Ogasawara Islands are located, but once I had it makes perfect sense that Japan operates these for patrolling its many outlying islands.
Many people who understand the value of this amphibian are familiar with airplanes and aerodynamics and can judge things fairly and correctly.
You are one of them.
worthy of respect.
WOW! never seen a flying boat enter the water like that, the undercarriage is painfully narrow too, I would not like to land on a runway but what a gorgeously cool aircraft and what a short take off run for an aircraft that size.
Thank you for watching my video.
Thank you for your comments.
I think seaplanes are the best. I have always found them fascinating.
Got to watch these planes when I was on a 2007 detachment to Iwakuni, very impressive seeing them up close and during takeoff.
Are you from the US military?
Thank you for watching my video.
I am very honored.
I retired from the Navy in 2009. While attached to the Expeditionary Logistics Unit, worked with the maintenance department for the EA-6B squadrons that was manned by the Marines. Spent 3 months there but saw more than I expected when I brought the mountain bike and spent every spare moment exploring. There was a few of these planes that would come in and park on the pier side, got to see it better during an air show held there at that time.

I have loved the US-2 since the first time I learned about it a few years ago. I noticed recently the US was looking at the possibility of creating a float version of the C-130. Maybe they should take a look at buying some US-2 planes instead.

Japan is one of the few countries in the world, to have mastered amphibious aircraft. If you look closely at belly of the Aircraft in the middle there is a movable ski section to help break the suction that occurs during water take offs, that very few amphibious aircraft have. It save a lot of energy on take off this way. The US-2 also serve with the Indian Navy who has 12 for delivery started in 2016 from ShinMaywa Industries, Ltd and has recently been completed.
Great consideration and insight.

You forgot the Chinese AVIC Russian United aircraft corporation and the Canadian Bombardier Aerospace CL 215 for mastering seaplanes. Had the Theme of WW II era seaplane airframes Modernized continued Airbus would have made a Short Sunderland or BV 138 using A400M engines.

I notice that it dumps it's water ballast from the very first part of the take off and it is still pouring out, but at a much reduced rate, towards the end of the clip. About 1 minute. Very nice, getting lighter all the time as it climbs.
Thank you for the detailed explanation.
I was not so detailed, so it was very helpful.
@@kerozaemon Hi, it is a very good video, thank you. I have a sailing boat background, which made me wonder how it stabilised until seeing the water pouring from the airship upon take off. Thank you for your response. Cheers

Thanks to you, it has been seen by many people in the world.
I'm honored to see a gentleman like you.
Thank you very much.
Awesome aircraft, and stol!!!
When I first saw the seaplane, I thought it was a C-130. Then I noticed that it had a Tee tail. It is a magnificent machine.
Amazing aircraft (or flying boat)....it took off in just 13 seconds!
Thank you for watching and commenting.
awesome footage, thanks!
to you too.

旭日旗を掲げたゴムボート、機動力高そう！ そして、総集編とのタイトルに恥じない、素晴らしい映像！ 車輪を格納するシーンもリアルに見せていただきました！
そうそう。
出したところ撮ったら、仕舞うところも撮らないとですね。
でも時々忘れちゃうんですよねー。(^^;
"I Love the US-2. The power and it's size is outstanding. It has an easy Takeoff ratio, and I think it is a number one water Transit."
Thank you for watching.
And thank you for your nice comment.
I can say that this is a beautiful sea plane with the latest prop engine.
Impressive short take off.
That's what I was going to say. Awesome plane in general, pretty cool looking.
Yeah thought the same, especially considering it was from water.... very impressive plane..
6500 SHP in each TurboProp = 26000 SHP. That helps get this beauty into the air. Also it has high aspect ratio wings that generate HUGE lift at low speeds. Its pretty unique.
Thank you for watching and commenting.
Can you see this too?
US-2 can be almost stationary in the air if there is a headwind.

Boa noite meu Amigo !!!!
Que aeronave fantástica.
Lindo demais.
Muito obrigado pelo vídeo e parabéns pelo canal.
Abraço do Brasil.......
Obrigado por assistir e comentar.
Sinceramente.
Dave needs to buy six of these ASAP.
High price due to high performance
It seems that it is difficult to sell to foreign countries
I saw in a Japanese newspaper article that the US military was interested.
I pray that the bond between the US and Japan alliance will deepen.
