Spiny Norman 88 I think I contemplated inserting a scissor though my neck while wasting away watching this, at least then I'd be doing something interesting.
Spiny Norman 88 do that be worse as in you seen better compilations,!?.!!? Or you just can't make a decision on how to punctuate your last sentence? Or this is the worst bunch of missiles you've ever seen?
4:40 It was therefore necessary for someone to wake up the Range Safety Officer and inform them that the missile was failing and that it might be a good idea to destroy the missile by remote control.
@@freerk That’s both good news and bad news. The optimist would admire the stability, while the pessimist would be freaking out because it’s pointed straight at the ground. Sometimes it can be so hard to take sides. 🤔
Awesome video. Not for nothin’, it can not be easy to get footage of live ordinance mishaps. Most of it is jealously guarded, secret classified and will remain that way until long after, and even if, the ordinance itself is considered obsolete. This kind of material & telemetry is held pretty tightly by military intelligence agencies. Not long ago, US Navy footage of Russian missile launches were among our most valuable intel grabs (not to mention the cost of obtaining the footage in the first place). Pretty amazing compilation - thank you for posting this.
the S-300 and S-400 are conceptually very scary missile systems but the fact that this video features 3 or more instances of them failing makes me wonder if its more scary for the enemy or for them launching the thing, lol
Can you point out where exactly was the S-400? The Russian missiles all suggest the systems were S-300s. A system that dates back to the 1980s. A system that old has its drawbacks. It’s the reason even American F-15s snap apart in mid air. Many missiles featured in the video are not Russian, care to tell me why Russia should be scared?
Quite surprisingly that clip of Sea Dart system failure can solve one argument about its rate of fire I saw many years ago: within 10 seconds a dummy round was already loaded to the arm, way shorter than many sources claimed it would take.
Hillarious ... honestly ...a bit long ... but pretty funy It remains me that we are all the same accross the world. No one is better than the others ;-) I love you guys wherever you come from.
Speaking from experience, that is a U.S Navy Mk51 torpedo. The torpedo isn't a dud, nothing is wrong with the torpedo. What happened was that there was a failure in the HP Air system that provides the push to shove it out of the tube. Either a valve didn't open properly, or there was insufficient air.
@@stephenhoward6829 do surface ships use hp & lp actuating air? LA class SS use lp air to actuate the hp air which pushes the weapon & water out of the tube.
The first "fail" is not actually a fail, that's a new Russian "hybrid" missile. When fired, one half of the missile dives underwater to search for submarines and the other half goes after aircraft or surface targets.
1:00 Senior officer to Private: - You must go out there and check the status of that missile. - I'm not going anywhere.. - Son.. I'm not asking you.. I'm giving you an order..
another crap effort at robbing old video. your weak try with humor at the end with the US ship and the lighthouse pretty much seals it. It never happened and was just a tele advert.
Normally the Soviet/Russian "cold launch" (Missile ejected from tube by compressed gas, engine ignites a safe distance away, rather than inside launch tube) is a plus, but obviously less so for missiles fired vertically.
