You probably dont give a shit but does anybody know a way to get back into an instagram account..? I was dumb forgot my account password. I love any tips you can offer me
@starryapril yes. They are. I know this because I was a CIWS tech for 6 years. The point I was making is that the video is about CIWS and CIWS is a 20mm gun that, normally, does not use tracers. And, NEVER uses 25mm rounds. I'm not sure why they added the 25mm cannon in that video.
My rack (bed) was right next to one, plus the end of the catapult. Needless to say you had to learn to ignore the noise if you were going to get any sleep.
I worked on the CIWS in the Navy in the 90s. Fun fact- the 20 mm rounds are made from depleted uranium- you didn’t want to stand outside near the gun during firing, the smoke was toxic.😮
Same gun as fighter jets - M61A1. The way it aims at air targets is really neat. Its kind of a pain to load. It's LITERALLY a robot. I worked on block 0 and block 1 mounts in the 90s.
I wonder if such guns would stop missiles too that slipped through? Definately need such close range defense system tho like on a ship cuz against small drones etc sometimes..
My uncle was in charge of the sea whizz program here in Canada. When we had naval day somebody forgot to stand the weapon down and it trained on an American sea king helicopter and it opened up. Thank god it was unloaded at the time.
I remember watching a live-fire against a towed aerial target when I was on CVN-70. The R2D2 got one burst off, which severed the cable from the target, which then barely missed falling onto the flight-deck. Demo-fires at night were also a fun sight, all those tracers!
Sadly those things are crazy expensive to fire. Fortunately for those of us who served on Naval warships greatly appreciated the CIWS. On a FFG7 class frigate it was our only true defense against incoming missiles and aircraft. So yea, thank you for those tax dollars to help protect us.
You invade other nations, steal, kill, install occupation bases and still use this protection argument as an alibi to carry out your acts of atrocities. @@donaldharkness1325
It was my job to pilot those target boats during my time in the navy. A lot of sleepless nights. I prevailed and am proud of my skills that I developed. I now deliver for Amazon in Chicago.
That's not CIWS firing in that clip, that's the Mk 38 Autocannon. CIWS fires sabot enclosed Tungsten rounds. It used to use depleted Uranium rounds before they switched.
It’s fucking insane how they will shoot a handful of these and they’ll annihilate their target. But they can also shoot 1,000 of these in less than 20 seconds.
Absoulty amazing. There automatic too, so if ur at war the sea whizz can pick out an enemy plane and destroy it on it's own, never mind the rail gun, or the laser.
They aren't fully automated. Source my dad was a sea wiz operator which came in handy during a shooting drill when it shredded the target and then started tracking the wire up to the jet that had been pulling the target.
@@DavidTorpid It's so minimum though. No human calculations are made. It's not like some guy is sitting there: "yep more meters infront and it will hit".
Btw I find it funny how pirates are trying to board Navy vessels like what do they think will happen they’ll take the crew hostage? I mean say they got on I’m sure the personal have an armory
What kind of dope are those pirates on!!!!!!! Attacking a warship in small fishing vessels? They have to be on something or seeking their eternal Jiahd reward. Otherwise, they're just plain nuts.
These rounds explode on impact with the target, or on tracer burnout, thereby greatly reducing the risk of collateral damage from rounds that fail to hit their target.
This is a 6 barrelled 20mm Gatling gun that fires 100 rounds a second and carries about 900-1000 rounds on the mount (I wonder how many reloads are carried?). It's the same gun as carried by many U.S jet fighters and yes it does fire 100 rounds a second but if you're an enemy pilot with quick enough reflexes you could possibly get out of the way because it takes a few seconds to build up to firing 100 rounds a second. The Dutch have something similar/better called Goalkeeper that packs the 7 barrelled 30mm cannon as carried by the A-10 Thunderbolt (the cannon that will knock out Tanks!) and I think I'd rather have one (or more!) of those if I was Captain of a warship in hostile waters. I can just imagine what Goalkeeper would do to any aircraft/drone/missile/boat!!!☠☠☠
The mk 38 slow loader seemed more accurate at ground/base targets. Probably a better defence against shipping. The chain gun relies on volume off rounds to hit its target. Accuracy per round is actually very poor.
I remember being on CV-64 And hearing that sound..ahhhh..I'm safe..amazing though..They say it shoots so many rounds a minute but it's always not true.. It's all classified baby.
I will admint, that I kinda hate weapons (unless it is for target practice) and I hate war. But I also am not stupid, adn know these are nessesary.. And I could watch CIWS/C-RAM all day long.. they are needed and very cool ;-)

I wonder how Pearl Harbor would have ended if we had these guns aboard
It would have been like lambs to the slaughter
Guys would have still been in the mess hall, eating breakfast. These things would've made short work of Zeros.
It would’ve been a bloodbath but in this case literally
"it's not what you think". It's possible the CIWS wouldn't have a target profile that would cover a slow moving propeller aircraft.
Actually I think some planes would have gotten through (depending on how many CWIS are armed and scanning)
Has Thunderbolt the same gun?
Thats a WOW! John P.
I have to ask, is that a windshield washer reservoir on the side lol
Never gets old... sounds like a bunch of mechanics inna shop🎉❤
Yes This is not ArmA 3! It's a Real one.
I think they should paint it yellow and give it a pair of goggles.
Agreed. Death Minion.
Ah yes... Kevin had enough
Looks more like the head of the assassin droid from the Mandalorian or one of the robots from lost in space
Seems like too many rounds are fired to hit the target, considering that it’s radar guided.
Supposed to be able to stop antiship missiles, but they don't seem to be able to hit a small boat with that ciws
LoL yeah ok, feel free to hop on those boats to find out if it misses! FYI boats don't sink instantly......
at 0:52 were they using HE or AP?
That's not CIWS firing in that clip, that's the Mk 38 Autocannon. CIWS fires sabot enclosed Tungsten rounds. It used to use depleted Uranium rounds before they switched.
Can't it shoot any faster than that?
When fired, you can hear and feel it four decks below !
An A-10 Thunderbolt gun on a ship, cool!
No the A10 GAU8 is 30mm these are 20mm 👍
Bullets are hitting so hard they're skipping off the water 🤔
And another thing on that scene, that’s not a CIWS that’s the main autocannon.
I can throw stones so hard that they too skip off the water :)
It was the 25mm Bushmaster Cannon

For every round that connects, 99 miss. A true "government success!"
Isn't that machine guns too? Both aren't meant to be sniper accurate, they throw a lot of stuff out, and suppress or deny an area.
Umm let me explain how machine guns work
I would love to bring Mr Gatling back to have a look at his creation.

That thing must get so freakin hot.

Perfect for aircraft and pirates
How does it not melt?
didnt no the rpm of the barrel spinning was adjustable
For tanks, its gonna get bombarded from above, but for planes, its certain death for them in the sea
R2FU , installed them on the indy and the kitty hawk
Sick!
This is one of those moments you say "idk what that was" cuz its nothing anymore
If that R2-D2 lookin thing stares me straight in the face, I’d just accept my fate.
So when do they actually hit anything??
R2D2... nobody does it better..
Has it ever hit anything?
For as much as those weapons cost, they seem to be missing those little boats a lot.
if they hit it right off the bat they have nothing to shoot at
Most likely going right through it. Until it hts something vital you won't see much
they're training make no mistake they will hit you when they pass[
RTX developing civilian version for porch pirates
Can't wait til they make a C3PO
So like...where and how far are those thousands of stray rounds going?
These rounds explode on impact with the target, or on tracer burnout, thereby greatly reducing the risk of collateral damage from rounds that fail to hit their target.
Ain't nothing getting by that.
