| Description |
English: Built for the USAF as a standard Grumman SA-16A Albatross, with the c/n G-153 and the US military serial 51-0472. Later allocated US Navy Bureau No 149822 and sold to Japan (as a UF-1?). Heavily converted by ShinMaywa to carry out development testing for the PS-1 patrol flying boat and redesignated as the UF-XS. It now had four main engines as well as two internal turboshaft engines for a blown high-pressure air system. It also had a redesigned hull. In this configuration it carried out flight testing from 1962 to 1964 and was finally retired at Shimofusa in 1967. Between 1975 and 1993 it was on outside display at Aerospace Science Museum Tokai University in Shimizu City, then being restored by ShinMaywa before moving to Gifu for permanent display inside. She remains on display in Area A3 at Gifu-Kakamigahara Air and Space Museum, Kakamigahara, Gifu. 13th March 2020 |
