I didn't see any ships from the British Royal Navy. Queen Elizabeth Carriers, type 45 destroyers, latest nuclear powered submarines (apparently the most quiet and deadly on the planet) plus the new frigates that are currently under construction etc. etc.
The creator of this video is HIGHLY ignorant. He should have consulted some naval historians before producing such a whale of misinformation. Guy's a putz!
It's the quietness of the UK Astute class that makes them so deadly. More so than more heavily armed subs since they can remain undetected and strike first, which is a deciding factor in war.
Let's include the DDGX that may never come to fruition but omit the type 26 frigate that's already being built with ultimately 32 examples being fielded by three different NATO partners.
From everything I have read on the Zumwalt they’re actually more of a disappointment than a advanced tech worship. To this day the Swedish Navy’s Corvettes are actually far stealthy. And because of major cuts during the construction process, it’s capability of actually using its radar for interception duties is negligible at best.
@@saulneinstein1110 no, they completed the three first ships. In fact, the third one is scheduled to launch sometime this year. What is important to remember is that three ships out of a proposed 25 if not more. On top of that, they were originally intended to be built as artillery support destroyers, rather than multi rule combatants.
Whatever happened to designing reliable destroyers that had real world capable proven weapons systems like the Charles Adams class we had from 59,60 till they retired them like what, 35 years later? My late dad was a retired career navy Capt. skippered the Henry B. Wilson out of San Diego right when I was around 2 and his flagship as Comdesron 25 after he was c.o. of the Naval Destroyer School in Newport, R.I. was the Cochrane. Funny when I visited Pearl again in 99 and we went on onboard the Missouri, there the two were birthed side by side after they retired them just a mile or two away over anchored. Brought a tear to my eye I must say.
I am actually very happy they are not mentioning the Royal Navy's Equipment. we have some of the best on the planet but we don't have to Advertise it. Just let the enemy find out the hard way! But mind you there is plenty of info out there already lol
England idk you do make good ships you just dont make enough of them .is that because you depend on USA way to much.thats my opinion.or there is way to much corruption going on like in usa
I’m kinda not convinced powerful radars hmmm I’m certain cea-far and some uk radars are more than likely quite a bit better and a ship is only as good as it’s radar my thoughts anyways
Dutch radars are where it's at. The UK use Dutch radars as well, like the S1850M, which is derived from SMART-L and was made in collaboration by Thales Netherlands and BAE.
Those sail drons should be armed with a small nuclear device, so when it is captured by a hostile state, that state would get a big bang for their trouble.
I disagree with listing any ship not yet built. The DDG-X may not be built at all, why include a hypothetical ship? And while I’m at it, where is the Royal Navy’s Type 45 DDG?!
This article loses all credibility by mot mentioning ONE UK Vessel . So advanced are UK radars that on some UK USA joint exercises the UK ships have been asked by the US to turn off some of its radars to give them a chance !
@@rayjames6096 EVIDENCE PLEASE. I expect that you don't believe that during the Cold War in an exercise against the US nuclear defence system the UK sent a few Vulcan Bombers to attack New York, Washington etc and despite the whole of the US defence systems, successfully destroyed ALL of its targets, with NO loses. A second exercise was held with just the UK as attackers. The whole of the US defence system was warned in advance. All targets were destroyed with the loss of ONE UK aircraft ! The US blocked any publicity for decades !!! I expect you think the US split the atom first and that the US invented the jet engine and RADAR ! THEY DIDN'T. The UK did. We also along wirh the Commonwealth were the major force in the D Day landings and totally thrashed the Americans in 1812 , causing the US president to flee while we burnt the White House down. Challenge me with PROOF, if you dare !!
@@davidsaunders1125 For one thing the Vulcan didn't have the range to reach the US and used Canada as a launching point and this was over 50 years ago when US defense systems were a new technology. The US supplying the UK in 1940 is the ONLY reason the UK didn't surrender. All the fuel, heavy equipment and transport aircraft and most of the war material were provided to the UK during WWII by the US...just like during the Falklands War. The US won the revolutionary War. You brits make shit up. No one believes your nonsense.
@@davidsaunders1125 The US Mahatten project developed the A-bomb and I never heard of a single British scientist involved. The UK didn't invent radar, it was under development in numerous western countries at the same time and also in axis powers Japan and Germany. The jet engine the UK developed is a forgotten variant, Germany invented the type in use today. The brits live in the past.
What really makes me shake my head in bewilderment is all the negativity being heaped upon the fujian ACC, most people are writing the Chinese dragon off as a useless piece of kack but I’d say that what the prc is doing is a mahoosive maskirovka. Let’s not forget that one of the typical useless items not working on the ford class was the bomb lifts and let’s not also forget the electronic Cato bar systems were only given a fifty out of 100 expectation of a cat or trap actually working and the busted flush ie the grf still has serious issues even after having to delay launching the 2nd Ford class because of of all the pieces of kit stolen to try and get the grf to work and so in closing I’ll say that give the PRC a chance because they may surprise us all
The Zumwalt class was designed for white water and even for that provved of questionable abilities. Last I heard the prototypes were."swept under the.rug" somewhere.
The USS Zumwalt DDG-1000, USS Michael Monsoor DDG-1001 are in active service homeported out of NAVSTA San Diego and the PRECOM Lyndon B. Johnson DDG-1002 is undergoing sea trials.
This is such a Chinese propaganda the Chinese have no idea about a blue water Navy tell me about their Blue Water Navy history over the last 200 years especially carrier operations
All this sky is gonna fall bullshit the press has been pitching about the goddamn vaunted Chinese navy and their threatened invasion across the South China seas is laughable. The Chinese would be looking at the same problem Germans were looking at in their proposed Operation Sealion in a cross channel amphibious invasion of England. Without the massive domination of air superiority like we had at Normandy and a big gunned Navy like the Brits had ready to send the German transports to the bottom of the Channel, they didn't stand one chance in hell of succeeding in anything but drowning their entire invading force. The U.S. Pacific fleet and it's far superior carrier battlegroups with their far superior nuclear attack subs sweeping the Chinese navy away surface and subsurface probably not more than a few miles off of their homeports, not to mention our far superior air force and navy fighters having another Marrianass turkey shoot with the People's Army air force, it would be all over but the crying very quickly for the Chinese military.
Left out the tug towing Russia’s little carrier. It has to know where and when the carrier will break down (not difficult admittedly), work out the best route back to harbour trying to avoid the world’s press (international navy’s having long since stopped bothering to track the ship by the amazing amount of smoke it puts out on those odd occasions when it operates for more than a few days), and help the Russian leadership explain why it’s constantly in dry dock when their yachts seem 5o cruise the world without a problem.
@@PartyhatRS well that just goes to show how uninformed you truly are if you think the USA is under prepared they are Australia and England best mates,and Australia is now brisling with the latest technology so you can think what you like but I know different try it and your country will see it's discussion capisce Aussie Aussie, ALL the way think again you . Australia is that prepared with the UK and USA help that we can see every single thing on the planet and also destroy it at will you can take that to the bank Sunshine. Your stupidity or your arrogance will be your country's downfall we are not blind and we are not underprepared not at all party hat rubbish slinger
Excuse me, you said the Zumwalt class destroyer is a jack of all trade but not specialised enough, then the same will apply to the other destroyers you have mentioned!! Whatever individual weapon system the Zumwalt carries it is more advanced than that of 🇨🇳, 🇯🇵, 🇷🇺, 🇰🇷🇬🇧 , so how can you say it isnot specialised enough?
The much vaunted rail gun system the Arleigh Burke's were designed to be fitted with that was touted as the game changing weapons system that would be absolutely unspoofable by enemy aircraft or anti- ship missiles ended up looking good in the lab but undeployble in a real combat environment as the sheer velocities needed to launch the inert tungsten bolts tore apart their own launchers very quickly and therefore became useless in combat as they were unable to reload and keep them in the game. Ridiculous they designed this ship and wasted all those billions on a ship class not to mention the billions sunk into the r&d of the weapons system itself. Did the engineers who designed this high tech piece of garbage not know this before the company snookered the hell out of the Navy pitching it to them? How could they not have? And shame on the Navy for being stupid and naive enough to buy their bullshit before it was proven. Someone needs to be fired, court martialed or otherwise held accountable for this debacle.
Zumwalt's AN/SPY-3 radar has a range of 320 km. Zeven provinciën's SMART-L ER surveillance radar has a range of 2.000 km. Pretty obvious which one is the superior, by a factor of 6 in fact. Even most other countries have better search/surveillance radars, generally with a range of 400 km. Zumwalt sucks, the only thing it has going for it is stealth, and even that only goes so far.
THREE Ford Class carriers in operation? Beside the USS Ford, which others? USS Kennedy is still under construction. The USS Enterprise is still under construction. The USS Doris Miller is in the early stages of construction. And #4 slips my mind. Bottom Line? Only one, the USS Ford is at sea. Getting this right should have been easy.
Oh yes,that radar must be from alien technology to the ship navegate without the fear of hitting land mines. Uauuu. Where did they built that ship,area 51 perhaps,no. PS: i wonder where did you get all this missiles and weapons designations on the Chinese ships when by your own words they are involved in absolute secrecy. Do you have a mole on the Chinese department of defense...??!!! Or an very good imagination.
OK, so that link is for a video you have on your homepage but how about you describe yourself and your hair? I find it fascinating when ladies grow their hair long like Rapunzel's so tell me all about yours since I do find it beautiful just like I said.
Lol no UK aircraft carriers arguably the best in the world nevermind the astute class nuclear subs definatly the best in the world our new frigates being built and not lastly our destroyers the Americans asked us to turn off the radars because there too powerfull can target 1000 targets at once just my opinion but im glad because whoever trys to mess will have a huge shock lol
Which Arleigh Burke class ship? They entered commission in the early 90's so those ships are worn out (the Flight I's) and the newest ones are still under construction and will be for many years and trying to compare the technology on them is ridiculous.
@@ronrowan4828 I know that information isn't correct. I'm a retired US Navy submarine veteran and I know it isn't right. The internet is full of erroneous information especially when it comes to military hardware.
Maybe the reactor is capable of putting out 280,000 hp if you were able to use every bit of heat it makes, but reactors don't work that way and maybe you can use 1/3 of the energy they produce. Also, 260,000 hp is what a Nimitz class CVN has for power, not a Virginia class SSN. (The Kitty Hawk class CV's had 280,000 hp).
Nope, not anymore. the USS Ohio is no longer a SSBN, but was converted into a SSGN and carries 154 Tomahawk cruise missiles. The first 4 submarines of the class were converted into SSGNs.
For the Chinese Aircraft carrier to be that high is crazy being that it is unproven. The first aircraft carrier China had was a casino. The second one was a copy of that casino with Russia helping to install systems. The third "The Fujian" is a brand new design from the ground up with the technology they learned from the first 2 carriers. There isn't a lot "groundbreaking tech" on it. Even China will say it is still an "experimental" ship. I would fear the 5th or 6th carrier they build. But the Fujian shouldn't be any higher then any other carrier out there. We just haven't seen what it can do.
The sharp end of the stick for any carrier is its aircraft and so far I haven't been overly impressed at all with what China has put to sea with any of their carriers. Quite possibly they are waiting on the next generation of the U.S. fighter and attack planes so they can copy them.
@@jerrykahn6894 Yes, the "cracks" in those photos are at least 2-3 meters wide in proportion, and the Fujian crew has a 2-meter-wide long crack that won't break even after overtime. This is alien technology
The Fujian is a ODD BALL on the visible aspect. your video showed TWO different carriers. one with a SLOPPED flight deck to launch air craft and another one with a FLAT flight deck. who is who?
flat deck is the newbie. other is chinas 2nd carrier built by china and is a copy of the 1st they purchased from Russia , tho I don't know why he put it in 2nd spot because nothing about it has has been proven, but it does look nice
Yea their new one with the flat deck is being fitted with steam catapults from the british designed ones the Brazilians let them copy from the French carrier they bought and operated for awhile and saw action launching the Skyhawks with the Exocets they gave Brits such a tough time in The Falkland Islands war. The Brits surface to air missiles and their radars on their frigates could not lock on to the sea skimming Exocets after the Skyhawks launched them and dove away.
I stopped watching because of your ignorant use of the term battleship. That is a very specific class of giant surface combatants. Not a generic term for warship.
Tons of BS and non-sense : "lasers able to destroy any incoming missiles" ?? Dude, right now are NO lasers able to destroy a superonic missile, and I not even talk about HYPERsonic missiles ! Stop inventing BS, you make a fool from yourself ! Lasers are decent FOR SMALL DRONES, and USELESS against fast missiles ! Learn some fraking physics ! And secondly, a warship is ONLY a sea based platform, we are long pass the days when the ship was relevant, as in ww2 ! Now what made a ship dangerous is the quality of the weapon systems installed, especially the missiles. So, next time focus in the MISSILES deployed on these platforms and not in the ships. Nowadays, even a container ship can pop in an instant a dozen of these destroyers if that container ship is armed with enough good AS missiles !
It was because of the aluminium (alumina) super structure that is no longer used in ship design and the wrong anti flash equipment then they were made with nylon incorporated but this type is no longer used. The USA also fazed out these issues after the falklands war
@@davidlangton3778 And the fact they didn't have any CIWS installed on their ships. Signaal Nederland offered Goalkeepers (which came out 3 years before the Falklands) to the Brits, but rather painfully looking back the Brits ignored the offer. Untill after the war of course, then they jumped on the opportunity and bought a bunch of them, but obviously a bit too late.
@@davidlangton3778 Well, 17Ticonderoga class CG's are still in commission with their aluminum superstructures. You're right though that the Arleigh Burke class DDG's don't include aluminum in theirs.
@@cj64343 did I hear a ‘ correct ‘, maybe that should be kept in mind while USA, Japan, South Korea keep threatening China and pretending China is 3rd world weak militarily!
In terms of the number of VLS, it's 2nd to Sehjong class destroyers. In terms of radar, its Type 346B is comparable to European SMART-L radar. Both are better than SPY-1, but not SPY-6. But in terms of offensive weapons is where it shines the most outclassing any other destroyer IF it carries YJ-21. Otherwise Burke will take its spot while also being the best in terms of defense.
@@johnsilver9338 Dutch SMART-L is the best on the planet by a decade or more. It's been exported to a whole range of countries, like South Korea, Denmark, Germany, and to the UK, France and Italy as its derivative S1850M, but all of them received the base version. However Thales Netherlands developed a new upgrade, turning SMART-L into it's ER variant and giving it a 5x increase in detection range, from 400 km to 2.000 km. SPY-6 doesn't come anywhere close to that, no one does.
@@pieterveenders9793 THAAD's TYP-2 radar has a max range around 4700km. SPY-6 is also from the same company Raytheon. SPY-6 with 24 RMAs on Burke Fligh IIA has a comparable max range around 4600km. SPY-6 with 37 RMAs on Fight III will even be more powerful.
It's a pity this channel can't tell the difference between a Destroyer (Arleigh Burke) and a Cruiser (Ticonderoga), while they both use more or less the same hull shape, everything from there on up is, totally different and doesn't even look the same.
The Chinese Aircraft carrier will not be ready until 2026. The Queen Elizabeth class carriers will have 40 F-35 jet's onboard by then. Plus there's two Carrier's. With the Astute-class Nuclear attack submarines which are the very best in the world.
Without inclusion of the UK Type-45 destroyer, type 26 frigate, the Astute class submarine, which is so quiet that it can shadow America's best, and QE aircraft carrier, this is not much of a comparison video. In fact it is very American biased. Some of the vessels listed are not advanced at all. But a revealing video.
The Royal Navy has 4 active Astute class SSN's. The US has 3 Seawolf class SSN's that are far quieter than the Astute class. Oh, you're talking about the Los Angeles class SSN's that entered service in the 70's being noisy.
the UK does have small fleet of ships but nothing outstanding enough to make the list, their type 45 destroyers are pretty useless due to major mechanical problems and currently only have one type 45 seaworthy, their carriers are very limited being able to launch only one aircraft type which they RN do not have even when they are not flooding or being in dock for major repairs when they break down which is often.
The Type 45s will be one of best Destroyers in the world once the refitted ships have been upgraded with engine and lots of new weapon upgrades. And are new Frigates will also be highly regarded among our allies. The Royal Navy's Nuclear powered Astute-class attack submarines are new and are the very best in the world. Also are two Queen Elizabeth class Aircraft carrier's. And buy 2026 they will have 35 F-35s on each carrier.
@@georgebarnes8163 the astute class submarines are amongst the most advanced attack subs on the planet at least on a par with US subs and Superior to any sub the Russians or Chinese have.
There are lots of less than amateur videos in youtube and this is one of those. The Zumwalt program is already cancelled and the destroyers decommissioned. It was a disaster. Not only its usability is questionable, it was plagued with problems since sea trial. It is not the future of US navy as the author said.
This chap is boasting about the Chinese capabilities despite the fact that Chinese carriers are still using steam turbines. Besides the aircrafts they carry are Russian made. He is exaggerating the Chinese capabilities
All the Chinese ships here are not advanced for more the show of it. They are parade ships… one of the most advanced is the Swedish Visby class corvettes, it’s a very small boat but workingly advanced.
Warships are amazing but dangerous too. Bismarck is best warship. Ps I remember when United States uss Kearsage warship was here in Finland in Summer. 😮
@@bartmason3395 Was NOT a pocket battleship. Graf Spee, Scharnhorst, and Gneisenau were pocket battleships. Bismarck and Tirpiz were full size. The ignorance displayed in comment like this one is appalling, showing that education has gone to Hell.
Bismarck best battleship ? You serious ? Sunk on its maiden voyage . It’s brother the tirpitz hid in a Norwegian fjord for most of the war , before being sunk by the RAF
@@ronrowan4828 Scharnhorst and Gneisenau were battleships, not pocket battleships. They did have 11" guns but that was only due to treaties and were scheduled to have them removed and armed with the same 15" guns as the Bismarck class.
Stop calling then "battleships"! Call them "warships". A battleship is a specific type of warship which no navy in the world uses anymore. Such ignorance!
Well the Chinese Aircraft carrier will not be ready for 5 years. And in that time the Queen Elizabeth class carriers will have 40 F-35 on each carrier. Plus the Astute-class Nuclear attack submarines which their will be seven of. Moving on to the Nuclear Dreadnough class.
Hahaha, the Arleigh Burke. Lol. That's anything but the most advanced. Just its mast alone is primitive and ancient, super bulky and will cause it to stand out like a massive beacon on radar. Compare that to the frigates/destroyers of many Western European NATO countries and you can inmediately see how ancient Arleigh Burkes are. The Zeven provinciën class is literally a decade or more ahead of the Arleigh Burke and still easily 5 years or more ahead of most others, especially thanks to it's unrivalled sensor suite. It's equipped with the new update of SMART-L only the Dutch have, giving it a 2.000 km detection range while all the other ships have a detection range of 400-500 km.
under the heading of pesky details... as the earth is round, or spherical shaped, it doesn't have straight edges, instead, it's a series of curves. by definition, anything round cannot have corners. so when you say, as you have twice so far, every corner of the globe, you are stating a place of impossibility, or non-existence. sure, it's part of the lexicon, but it's in fact, inaccurate, wrong, impossible, not definable. even if you argue that the intersection of a longitudinal line with a latitude is what people mean, that only references a single point, and not a corner. a corner is defined by 2 hard edges meeting at 90 degrees or other variant degree, but no corner of the globe exists. far reaches of the globe, absolutely. same holds true to the term edge of the earth. unless you're a flat earther, no one will be chasing anyone to the edge of the earth or end of the world, nor will anyone be visiting the four corners of the the world, 2 of the cardinal points are possible though.
True, but a widely used expression. More importantly, this video is inaccurate inasmuch as it includes an unlaunched design, old inventory and omits many more advanced existing vessels.
