Welcome to Sub Brief, I’m Aaron. I’ve spent 20 years serving onboard U.S. Navy submarines. As a U.S. Navy contractor, I provided Strategic and Policy Level consultation for domestic and international clients on cleared Navy projects. Now, I work as a military contractor providing technical subject matter expert services to clients on Naval matters and submarine technologies. Over the years, I have networked with a team of open-source intelligence professionals to provide services to private clients. Here on the Sub Brief channel, I share some of my unclassified work.
There is a Zumwalt Class Ship in the port ,where I live, getting hypersonic weapons systems. All three are coming here. I’ll get some photos when they leave hopefully. They are currently parked where you can only see the whole ship by boat.
It wasn't a miracle that won you the cold war. It was money. Mountains of moolah. Stacks of cash all the way to the moon. Greedy, grubby capitalism in all of its indecent glory. The US always had more of it, and the Soviets were so desperate not to fall behind that they crippled and hamstrung their country socially and financially by pumping all their finances into their military. Their own stupid command economy made them a shambolic giant that lurched and stumbled its way forwards until its momentum ran out in the late 70s and mid 80s. Militarily they were indeed impressive (mostly on paper), and while I like a lot of their gear like the Typhoon, they maxed out their stats in that one department at the cost of everything else. The total collapse of the Union and the horrifying degradation of the 90s were not some fluke. They were an inevitability which old Gorbachev had ironically accelerated with his adorable little Glasnost and Perestroika policies.
10:04 "They're very lucky they didn't lose the whole thing right there." No actually if the *were* lucky they *would have* lost it right there and they would all probably still be alive today. At least until Stockton built another one.
I’m sorry, but everything that you’re saying that China is doing is the exact same mentality that Israel takes against the Palestinians and any policies that they dictate throughout the world and if you don’t agree, then you’re xenophobic and your anti-Semitic how is that any different?💀🤣
Making the shell part carbon laminate and part metal (titanium,) was probably fatal because they contract and expand at different rates under compression. This would open up the seams between the laminate and the metal, and BOOM!
Thus a us plot to destroy european naval companies with promising a valuable contract and trip you down the way tge same thing was done to Australian companies and the same the Germans did to Swedish submarine manufacturer. This is my opinion
276 / 5.000 is it possible that at the moment when they threw the weights, everything went wrong, they lost their balance and couldn't right themselves, they fell quickly and with the last part that we saw, they hit the bottom and simply fell apart, since that would probably cause a lot of stress on the whole structure?
I have not seen someone discuss why PH started communicating with PP. That seemed weird to me that he specifically told them it was him. Was stockton compromised in some way? It's fascinating to me but it may just be a nothing burger. Very curious
If you do the math calculations they were about an hour ahead of schedule on their depth, they dropped these weights I’m assuming to try and counter this faster than planned decent, whatever the reason it’s clear this sub should have been looked at with way more caution and care than was taken, and sadly some people lost their lives due to this experimental submersible!
I have to say "Thank you" for reminding people that these aren't really tourist destinations, they are the final resting-places of people who died. The fate of the Titanic has been romanticized so thoroughly that people seem like they've forgotten that.
This video is so informative. I’m so grateful for how well and clearly you explain everything. I’ve read and watched several videos about the new info released in the inquest hearing and this is by far the most informative!!
I dont think the shipyard is corrupt the government hadn’t paid them and wasnt likely too. They dont work for free the people need paid the govt is in the wrong there
And to think that the world watched as a "rescue operation" was launched to possibly go down there and retrieve the passangers alive with a monumental waste of money and resources for the sake of pure theatrics...
There likely would have been buckling, sounds, etc warning them that the pressure was getting too high or that a failure was coming. You don’t go from “tolerable” to “intolerable” that fast. They knew they were doomed. It ducks, but it is what it is. People make attempts to make it feel better about the loss, in my opinion. Hubris and arrogance caused this.
5:05 It's pronounced like lorry-Anne - the stress is on Anne. The combination "en" in French is always pronounced like Anne. Not exactly, but it will get the message across. Lorient is of course famous from the U-boat base there in WWII.
