It’s been a pleasure seeing your channel go from a few hundred subs to where it is now. Your channel is a godsend to those who are addicted to defense new/
The good ol 🦃 days
Love the white board videos
nice pun
thought for a sec you were referring to actual submarines 😅
Yep, buy still miss Admiral Chair though 😁😁
As a 3rd shift office worker who loves Defense news i really love this channel. You dont tell our secrets but you give us some behind the scenes info. Thanks for your service and the content
Speaking of memories, I remember my first day at the Charleston Naval Shipyard. My boss was giving me a quick tour and we ended up in the bottom of a drydock and conversing with some men in the engine room of a supply ship (through a small hole). An hour later I was in the engine room looking out that same hole. It is an awesome memory. That ship looked huge when standing under it! About a week later we were trying to calm the ship's captain after telling him there was no way we could ready his ship to undock to weather a hurricane at sea that was approaching. The life of an (Assistant) ShipSup!!
How did the ship weather the Hurricane in Drydock?
@@1LEgGOdt The hurricane lost some of it's force before it hit Charleston, so the supply ship did not suffer any serious damage. The captain had a big smile the following morning.
Wow, small world. Any chance that supply ship you reference was the USS Frank Cable AS-40? We were in dry-dock at that time and couldn't get underway. As the only Cajun in Deck Div, I held the Hurricane party for the few of us that were standing duty for the duration. The aftermath was insane. We did weeks if not months providing protection, security, food and water to the communities afterwards. The lunatics and scavengers were out before the storm even subsided!! Hugo was at least as bad as any that I had previously experienced growing up in New Orleans. Thanks for hanging in with us!!!
@@helmsmanOfTheGalaxie I'm afraid I can't remember the ship's name, but I do remember that it was Hugo that hit us--it sure is a small world! Thanks for letting me know!!
@@1LEgGOdt As I recall, there were no serious issues. Have you seen the comment from a crew member on the ship?
I can’t help but think that the US often chooses the acronym first and only then makes the weapon description fit the acronym 😉
Same haha
They do, its called a backronym.
Something most people overlook when talking about hypersonic weapons is that, when they are in their terminal phase they have to re-enter subsonic speeds if they want to hit a military target.
Hypersonic weapons move so fast the friction with the air creates plasma sheathing. This plasma makes it almost impossible for the weapon to receive any outside information to guide the target or change its preprogrammed course. This means that if a hypersonic wants to hit a target that is 'small' and mobile, like a ship the missile will need to enter subsonic speeds so that the plasma sheathing will cease, allowing for it to receive new inputs to guide it to the target. This would make the hypersonic about as vulnerable as any other missile currently in use with the added penalty that it would have reduced subsonic agility and ships/satellites would have had a much easier time detecting it.
Oh detection for there won’t be a problem. Plasma also lights up on a radar like a Christmas tree. I’m guessing most plan on inertial guidance for the terminal phase (sub ~30,000 MSL). I don’t see how these are useful for anything besides static targets or oil tankers, and based on the US military’s initial development, then canceling of funding on hyper sonics I would say they see them the same way, but say that China is ahead enough in the media and suddenly congress says we need an arms race. (I’m basing the inertial guidance on chinas tests since impact speeds seem very high, but what you say seems to match the flight paths.
Sounds great until you remember that the US developed radio control signals strong enough to pass through the plasma of the Sprint ABM back in the 1960s. Granted, I don't entirely know the specifics of that control technique, but I have no doubt it's been further developed.
So there is no tech available? Didn't 3 Masonic baby boomers call the White House from the moon?
Can't penetrate plasma. But NASA called from 240,000 miles away, through the Van Allen radiation belt, in the "vaccum" of space?
@@it_aint_me9081 More complications to a weapon that the US doesn't really need. It should continue to science, test, and develop defenses of these types of weapons. But, hypersonics is a weapon for other nations that don't such a global presence as the US. The many spread out military bases and missile subs are much more of a deterrent. When the US starts closing down oversees base and missile subs then start pumping that money into hypersonics.

Love that the Navy is totally flexing on people with the console photos.
Raleigh Burke was a great Admiral from the WW2 and cold war era. He was always a big fan of clean ships. He cleaned a lot of rust off from all the ships he served in.
Not only memories, but Evals, Awards, and commendations for the hard and excellent work you performed in service for a nation that isn't as grateful as they could be. In those times I like to read them. I endured so much, and most will never know why I was awarded, nor how they benefitted from it. As long as they are free under our Flag, I'm compensated enough. It's surprising what I have learned.
17:15 Unreps can be rather harrowing. As an engineer, I thankfully didn't have to main the fueling stations for it, but did have to divert fuel oil to tanks as it was being brought on, which is a huge deal on it's own.
Also, to my knowledge, the evaps are all run off aux steam (so A-gang) on the carriers. I'm not familiar with the evaps the Nimitz uses, certainly, but since they work off of condensing steam to create the vacuum required to flash sea water, I can't imagine they'd be need a combustion engine for it. The Nimitz would be just Unrepping JP5 for the jets and possibly FO/diesel for secondary equipment (back-up diesel generators, Captains Gig, etc).
I get so excited when I get a new Sub Brief notification! Keep em coming Aaron!!
Awesome! Thank you!
@@SubBrief Thank YOU man!!!
The US is lightyears behind Russia and China on the hypersonic market and how is Raytheon able to make something "affordable"!?
Your channel is my favorite. Always look forward to each video. My son is Navy, somewhere under the water doing stuff😉
Great channel . . . always enjoy getting your insight as to what is what in Naval / Defence matters. Also, how you support Naval Staff doing the job they do - keep it up !!
Much appreciated
The projected array weapons are very interesting, as the range is proportional to the power squared, and I would guess a similar effect to submarine sonar at close range: lots of energy to destroy electronics and materials.
High Powered Microwave weapon?
To damage the electronics of a modern device intended for military applications using em energy is almost impossible. As Tesseract mentioned, the energy received by the weapon decreases greatly with range. Recieving paths of these devices always have limiters and other devices intended to limit and control the gain of the received signal. More modern lnas may be made using gan processes which allow for very high compression points. Some devices may even include esd protection. Also, think that there already exist platforms that emit with peak power levels above the mega watt range and missile recieving ends from the 80s have no trouble with them.
Do we have any links on this? I’m wanting to do further reading.
@@jacobbaumgardner3406 No, or at least I hope no further info exists in public. In fact them even saying it exists at all is probably saying too much. We may be curious and hunger for forbidden knowledge but these are things that unless we are directly involved we do not need to know jack diddly squat about it.
@@NuclearFalcon146 ah ok. Well is there any article I can read that shows someone with authority saying it does exist. Not that I don’t trust Sub Brief but I like to have my sources when talking to others about topics.
Another great video as always! Thank you and God bless!
Thank you! You too!
Just as an FYI for all you guys that keep up with all the military stuff especially Naval news, I work a BIW and I can tell you we are moving forward on SEWIP very quickly, and we're about to start preliminary design work on the DDG(x), probably won't cut steel for the DDG(x) for a few years yet till we finish the FLT III program, although personally, and this is just my opinion, I would not be surprised if the Navy decides to quit the FLT III's early and start building the DDG(x)'s sooner than planned, again thats just my opinion. So make no mistake, the type commanders are begging for more Arleigh Burkes, as those that are out there now are being totally overworked, as are their crews too and we are doing our best, as is Huntington-Ingalls down south to get these DDG's out to the fleet ASAP.
Great insight. thank you.
You guys are doing the lords work (metaphorically).
My dad’s a merchant marine and he’s always impress with what you guys do, and so I am as well.
Kudos and keep up the good work.
@@SubBrief China war will start as soon as they have Nuclear dominance. Rapidly building ICBMs etc. 49 out of 49 times, any nuclear power that has more nuclear capability has always won every demand against other nuclear powers.
China knows this. We know it. It's why the B21 is coming at break neck speed.
Thank you for your service of keeping our nation safe.
modern DDs are more like old BB with more accuracy and firepower in the short term than even Iowa class
The AUKUS Submarine announcement is likely to occur in Washington between 10-19 Mar, and there is growing evidence here that a brand new design will be adopted by all 3 members. Also a funding request as gone to the US Congress for looking into the possible sale or lease of in service USN Subs.
I'd like to have the job to sit around and make acronyms out of the full names for these various projects. Great news recap episode again, thank you.
Great job! I enjoy the vids! And…. I want to applaud your insight on the Titan tragedy. Calling it with honesty and not letting the families of the crew suffer even more wondering what happened. Good job taking the ethical high ground on that!!!!
Awesome channel, very well done. Thank you.
Welcome!
Very much enjoy your videos thank you, your presentation is level headed and where you can you explain the nuts and bolts. Again cheers.
Thank you for the brief.
Loving your videos.
Currently at NNPTC. I can't wait to go out to the fleet.
Glad you enjoy it!

With the major role drones have taken with this conflict I'm keep to see the underwater drones like we got a hint of,
I'm excited if what you pointed out is true and those ships have a drone launcher
Thanks Captain!
Very interesting on that NATO console from that E-3. What’s more interesting is that apparently this isn’t the first time they’ve made these similar photos available! Kinda crazy to me.
My son's ship (AB) is currently in drydock.
Excellent. Long needed to keep people free.
Great content !
I'm surprised you didn't mention the HMS sub deficiencies that were found this week.
I'm still collecting information on that.
Thank you for specifying Amercan need for accuracy. Important point. Sandbox covered Mayhem in depth
Coquitlam BC, Canada at precisely 23:34HRS every week during 2020 June-Sept I would watch an interesting air craft race along (very very fast and in orbit (I would not have seen it otherwise) up the coast from the USA then as it reached Abbotsford airspace (estimated) it took a steep bank towards the middle of BC.
Excellent update.
Thanks!
Big news coming from the philippines as the us secdef visited the country and the government agreed to the base placement and old bases reopening....subic bay and clark afb might be for reactivation
Who are they kidding? The E-3 operator was just playing "World of Warships" on his console before his buddy tipped him off there was PAO taking pictures. "Ooops. Back to the War." 😁
The photo's of the E-3 station was released to show that they are still using 70"s and 80"s tech. This is them saying "Give us some new stuff please".
If something is so fast and agile it’s too hard to lock onto and destroy, wouldn’t defeating it be easier if it we just couldn’t see it’s target ie - an electromagnetic pulse across an arc sector in which it is believed to be, heavy chaff/em saturated smoke screens etc, if it’s GPS guided you could possibly even signal jammer?
Love this channel man. Great stuff pointing out the CIA director was in Israel, I missed that
That ship, DDG 91 in the dry dock is mine!😁
Several of the FCs I served with early 80s were ex-TALOS techs. They talked about how TALOS guidance radar pretty much had the same capability in burn thru modes.... This would be most useful as a drone swarm defence.
Alongside UNREP "has been used for decades" was pioneered by RN & USN colliers from the 1890s, but was first used operationally by USS Maumee (under one CDR Chester Nimitz) when refueling USN DDs enroute to Queenstown Ireland in 1917.
they used to put me as one of the throttlemen for UNREPs on our DDG....1 or 2 RPM adjustments to speed for an hour were SOP
When I was training as a ship's gunner in the Naval Service on Haulbowline, I came across a great picture taken from the refueling jetty looking towards Cobh, as it's now known, showing several US destroyers in the harbor: USS, Wadsworth, USS Conyngham and USS Porter. Few people realize that Haulbowline didn't exist before WWI and that the RN built it up from just a small sandbar to serve as the base of operations supporting destroyers hunting u-boats in the north Atlantic. Cork harbor was perfect, close to the operational area to reduce transit times and is widely regarded as one of the largest natural harbors in the world. Its loss to newly independent neutral Ireland less than a year before WWII did not go down well in some quarters...
Great channel.
Actually, I think Iran, with their 86 ship flotilla, heading towards the Panama canal will have something to say about it soon enough... if someone doesn't do something about it sometime soon! That is our critical passage between oceans, mainly. China already has a presence down in that very area, a strong presence. We need that canal like Iran needs the straight of hormuz.
nearly 40 years since EOS date and I still remember most of my 5 years of sea duty on an Adams class DDG
"Well, one's at least near-peer" lmao
Looks like your getting more fit. Good on you!
Yes! Thank you!
SEWIP can probably fry electronics, the LASERs are for physically destroying big things (IMHO). Still, destroy a seeker or the autopilot of a cruise missile and it is not very useful anymore. Further out the better, of course. A lot of this seems to have come out of the most modern AESA RADARs. I began hearing about destroying things/injecting code into things with the Growler and its AN/APG-79.
Thanks for the update on these new programs. Always nice for when I pull back into port and see a new video from you.
My pleasure!
Raytheon's missile I thought was more of a cruise missile. Of course a HS cruise missile has to stay at around 15,000 feet or higher to maintain those speeds except in the terminal phase. The advantage of the Raytheon missile is that it is similar in size to the AGM-158. This means it can be mounted on just about an modern US jet, like the F-15, F-15, F/A-18 as well as externally on the F22 and F-35. It likely can use the Rapid Dragon system to deploy from cargo planes too. The MoHAWC is too large and heavy and can only be launched from a strategic bomber like the B-1, B-2, B-21, and B-52.
There is one more HS missile... the AIM-260. That went into full production back in October 1, 2022. The Raytheon HS cruise missile goes into full production this October (2023). So far as I know there is no production time set for the MoHAWC. It would likely be a fairly limited run on maybe 500 or less and they will be expensive. The Raytheon missile will not replace the AGM-158B/C or B2 when that comes out because even at subsonic speeds, having a low altitude terrain following cruise missile has its advantages (other than just cost). The US HS missile program is advancing quite well... as are other missile programs (like the AGM-158B/2 with its 1200 mile range and the GBU-53/B small diameter glide bomb) as well as its laser programs. The F-35 is maturing well too and the F-35B and Osprey has brought new life to the Amphibious Assault Ships like the America and Wasp class ships. They can not operate as light carriers if needed with up to 20 or more F-35B.
I think the Arleigh Burkes are going to be around much longer than planned. 🤪 At least we know they work. Maybe we should suspend the frigate program too, and spend all our money on more destroyers. We might get more ships done sooner that way.
What are your thoughts on the new city class Royal navy ships?
no real thoughts, going to have to look this up.
Crazy to think, just one Ford class aircraft carrier group has more combat power than most nations.
a Wasp class has more combat power than most nations
Excited for torpedo armed uuv's! Do we ever do anything in the South Atlantic?
Great video as always, Aaron!
A hypothetical question here - what additions would the Arleigh Burke's need to qualify as a cruiser?
Seems to me that they're already pretty close but I'm a civvy...... :)
Holy crap we got half a dozen hypersonic program's that's great pick the best and cheapest for development
E3 Century with its 1990s keyboard. :D
I might not be a geopolitical expert so all I'll say is that if my neighbour from down the street comes over and blows up my kitchen I'd certainly consider that an act of war....
Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, does Electronic/ Information Warfare as well the United States in general and the US Navy in particular.
You're right about remembering these evolutions for the rest of your life. I remember being OOD for an alongside refueling in the Med in the early 80s while taking ammunition forward and stores aft by helo. We were doing it at 15kts while at the time period the Soviets were struggling to do refueling astern at 5kts. We were not the only ship being replenished by helo at the time.
The E-3 operator also appears to be German
@@DurpThought they never experienced the double back in Saudi 😏
The Burke hulls are stretched to beyond the max already. The US needs to bite the bullet and restart Zumwalt production, with the flight three Burke fit. The hull and engines are fine. There is no Burke or Tico replacement hull ready. The Burkes 70s era hull design has been stretched enough. Their crews certainly have.
Not sure how many Chinese viewers your channel has, but I’m one of them.
about .2% very low.
@@SubBrief will you do a video on the recently-unveiled China’s new type 054-B frigate?
Carriers refuel their destroyers, too.
true.
When you've got the best stuff, might as well flex it on the Internet in 4k and put labels on it.
The energy weapon but isn't included in baseline 10 yet, they're working on integrating HELIOS into it in the future though.
Like they found some way around the inverse square law.
Always enjoy your debriefs.
No disrespect to the Admirals but moral it's primary component of the will to fight has always been a foundational principle of since the dawn of warfare. At least they're acknowledging something they should know as officers.
Regarding the IDF strike. If you view the conflict between Israel and her Muslim neighbors for what it is, a Cold War and the mechanics of how cold wars generally function and factoring in Middle East cultures and geo political culture, it makes sense how they communicate politically.
I'd also say study WWI and all of the interconnected moving parts between geopolitical and military alliances. It's complex but it demonstrates how wars can be avoided because it's generally never one nation vs another nation. It's historically, for the most part, been a nation & all her allies vs another nation & all her allies. Factor in military, trade, diplomacy, megacorps, digital cyberspace, media, & propaganda and you have very dynamic situations in Cold Wars, Proxies, Conflicts (political anonym for undeclared war), Open War, and Total Global War.
As a Cold War kid, how they talk to one another, engage media, geopolitically project power, etc, reminds me very much of how NATO and Warsaw Pact communicated with and at one another. It's their own regional version but we see this between India, Pakistan, and China in the Southern Asia Theater and we've been experiencing this in the Second Cold War between China and America for the past couple of decades.
0:30 looks like the GLSDB....was the Army involved ? :D:D:D
2:46 I saw a failed test of this vehicle in 2017. I live on a mountain in the middle of nowhere between several important airports/airfields. This thing came spiraling from outer freaking space, decelerating extremely hard, like an air brake, and finally leveled out about 200 ft before burying itself in the dirt. If u look up "Russian jet flat spin Ukraine" there's a 13 second video that sounds almost exactly like what it sounded like coming down, clearly on an unstable ballistic trajectory. But this came from way higher than I've ever heard a jet fly, and moved unlike any air vehicle I've ever seen. The noise got almost inaudibly low as it got closer to the ground. I swear the thing was like gyroscopically stabilized or something, cuz it shouldn't have been able to fly that slow without substantial wings.
So whatever Russia and china has doesn't scare me one bit. We've been working on this stuff for years.
Great video btw!
Hahaha
Interesting to watch the requirements for hypersonics come into fruition after only a few years of "development". Make ya wonder wonder what else they have hidden behind special access programs.
A lot of hypersonic research was begun in the 1960s. NASA, DARPA and The US Air Force have been working on materials and aerodynamics ever since. To me, it’s no surprise that these developments have occurred so quickly.
I think that's like screwturn capability. The US accumulate all the knowledge required to build a hypersonic weapon with out actually built one to avoid escalation. However should someone build one, the US can assemble the weapon real quick to retaliate. Perk of having a huge ass academia scene - they hide a lot military capability in civilian sectors, and that is wise.
Come think of it, first hypersonic weapon was US: the AIM-54 can come down at Mach 5. Among the first routinely flown hypersonic vehicles are the space shuttles. They must have learnt a lot about hypersonic with those system. Sure, the knowledge is public domain, but the US still have highest concentration of experience in operating hypersonic devices
@@VuLamDang the Royal Navy was famous for this from the mid 1800’s to the First World War. Dreadnought is a great example. The idea for her was at least 3 years old, but Britain didn’t do anything with it since it would wipe out her entire battle fleet. When the Japanese laid down Satsuma, it forced the British hand. Even though Dreadnought was laid down two years after Satsuma was ordered, the British were able to get Dreadnought in the water first. I fully agree that America does the same thing.
@@arizonaexplorations4013 and i think that’s very wise of them. They get to be the “good guys” for not building new type of weapons, they fund a healthy (ish - as a scientist myself there are a lot of things to be said about US academia) academia, and also politically the military seemingly on a back foot, so it justifies a larger budget
where do you think Russia and China got their starts......US had already been working on the technology and suspended it for a while....they either stole it or one of our traitors in the WH sold it to them
This will upgrade those FLT IIA's to nearly the level of a FLT III.
The spy 6 radar has many variants, I didn't see if there was any mention of how similar the radar will be on the two ships, but being that the F3s have additional electricity supply overhead this might limit the implementation on the refuted ships.
Good for the US, seems like a really good upgrade of the surface fleet after a lot of poorly performing programs
@@sebastianguerraty6413
I think the FFG(x)'s and the FLT IIA Upgraded Arleigh Burke's will each get a different version of the SPY-6 Modular radar system, but the FLT III's are getting the full SPY-6 system as will DDG(x).
@@sebastianguerraty6413 The two problems with the FLT IIA Upgrades getting the full SPY-6 is due to power requirements and the size of the SPY-6 Antenna Arrays. SPY-1 Array's are 8ft, SPY-6 are 12ft. In order to get the full SPY-6 on a FLT IIA the stern area of the hull would have to be enlarged to allow for the power generation equipment and the superstructure would have to be redesigned, ripped out and rebuilt to accomodate the SPY-6 Antenna Arrays. The FLT IIIs are being built with the bigger hull and superstructure for the Arrays.
Mineman Veteran, what do you think about the Avenger ships going away and the LCS mine countermeasures method?
Mayhem. MoHawc? Good names. Very good names. I approve on the names alone. Now all they need is a GeTT1nG Pi55ed, De5tr0-y Mk IX heh. Cheers old boy.
People dont seem to understand just how scary Burkes are.
they were bringing out Spruance and Perry class to replace the old steam-powered ships I help run in the early 80s......lot faster to get underway with a gas turbine
And when the DoD defunds the HAWC program like they do with most programs they can call the program the NoHawk. I wonder if the directed energy capability is intended for small drones? It;s hard to imagine it could trash an aircraft or large missile.
Non-kinetic destructive shootdown from EW. Yeah, I think I have an idea what they're toying with.
It's probably 1 -2.5 GHz, I'd say closer to 2.5 GHz and basically just high energy RF at 50% duty cycle, like a microwave oven feeding a phased-array antenna.
Question, I know the Kinzel is a highly modified iskander, Do we not have any intermediate range ballistic missiles that if launched at high enough altitude would maintain, above Mach 5 to the target. Or is that seen as an unnecessary half measure at this time.
Hey Aaron can we get a 2023 update on these weapons. Thanks man
How can they be operational if they are stil being developed . they can deploy faulty weapons all they want. I want to hear about defenses for these exotic weapons
Un-Rep is always a dangerous operation but can be memorable!
Israeli drone strike on Iran are not new. But they aren’t technically Israeli. They have a group in Iraq launching them.
The Mossad appears keeping things at arms length, for once.
This is not by far the first, or even the best quality public photos of live E3 screens, I'm sure it's fine sharing them.
I'm confused. Normally the supply ship is the "guide on vehicle". Except when fueling an aircraft carrier, the aircraft carrier is the "guide on vehicle". As I remember due to draft and wave action, the smaller vehicle always approaches the larger vehicle. Then when the evolution is over, the "guide on vehicle" stays straight and the other vehicle conducts an "emergency break away". By increasing speed and slowly turning to port or starboard away from the "guide on vehicle". The picture shows aircraft carrier left supply ship center and a destroyer right. That pins the supply ship in the center with the aircraft carrier to port, meaning the only ship that could conduct an emergency break away is the destroyer. I believe the reason why the aircraft carrier could not be the "break away ship" is the size and draft would effect the steering of the supply ship. Loss of steering is a real risk factor that occurs in this evolution. Is there any navy besides US Navy that conducts Underway Replenishments?
Where can I find the photos you used at the end?
Do you think the fact the Russia has tested so many of their missles in actual war gives them an advantage in furthering their missle technology?
most definately, just like states stir up conflicts to test weapons in mid east in last couple decades
20+ years of Russian corruption and lies even to their own leaders, IMO that would be a very hard judgement.
No, they're using S-300's as ground attack weapons. They are not considered a major world power anymore. Maybe a nuclear power, but not a super power. They've shot themselves in the foot like always.
Yes
it certainly gives them an opportunity to find out what works and what doesnt. However all the sanctions on them making it incredibly difficult to get the parts needed for high end missiles will make it next to impossible to put those findings into new advanced systems
First, I believe that Israel would view that strike as self-defense as whether or not Iran is sending them to Russia, Iran surely intends to use them against Israel!
the Isreali action vs Iran can be interpreted by Iran as a declaration of war but it's more likely to not be pushed as such by Iran considering their internal issues.
Modern day war declarations are very hard to figure because actions that constitute clear declarations of war by themselves often aren't counted as such by both the defending and attacking country because countries rarely want an actual war to be openned.
Ya, I agree. It was an act of war, just like the American assassin of one of their generals a few years back. However, Iran has no ability to do anything about it militarily. I believe that this was a terrible mistake and will have major consequences down the road for everyone though. Iran is a neutral 3rd party to the war. All they’re doing is making a buck. By doing and saying nothing, America is saying it is ok to strike the military factories of 3rd party neutral states. Guess who else is a 3rd party neutral state selling arms? If the giant Lockheed Martin plant in Akron explodes tomorrow, will America be ok with that? I worry people are more concerned about can they do or get away with a thing vs. what kind of a precedent are you setting? Is that precedent going to come back in a few years and kick your teeth in?
Does baseline 10 involve a computer hardware update or is it all software?
Think of baseline 10 as baseline 9 + SPY-6. So, both HW and SW. this is obviously an oversimplification, but it’s close enough.
5:47 this is true.. Especially when they are faced with foe many times more powerful than themselves, america has lots of experience in this, just look at Vietnam, Korea and recently Afghan
Haha, sub brief didn't get it.
Great channel, facts without the emotional rage…
Didn't the US have a hypersonic weapon system as in the Nike Sprint in the 1970s (ABM defence system).
I mean technically any ICBM and most ballistic missile can be qualified as hypersonic. A good portion of the ABM defence missle are as well as well as THAAD. The difference now with hypersonic weapons is the ability to sustain hypersonic speeds as well as have the ability to maneuver hence why most of them have some sort of ramjet or other propulsion method. Hypersonic is kinda the buzzword of the hour and if you go off the definition of above mach 5 that encompasses a lot of missiles over the years as well as pretty much anything going to space.
I live near WPAFB, and doubt they're doing any physical testing here. I'd guess they're doing all the design and simulation stuff. WP is known more for research and design rather then actual physical aircraft. It's too populated and we also have the DayInt Airport 10 miles away and operating around the clock. We do get some C17 touch and go's at the airport, C17 being the only aircraft based at WP anymore. I'm right in the flight line of one of the runways and get some pretty good close ups.
Why don't the other 7 Carrier Strike Groups appear on the map?
I wonder what we have already that we don't know about
Energy weapons? As you said, what range, do atmospherics interfere, etc...
Germany sank U.S. shipping prior to the U.S. entry into 2 World Wars. Iran is supplying a belligerent (just like the U.S. prior to the World war parts 1 & 2) therefore some may consider the action in question to not be an act of war. To my knowledge, no one has claimed credit for the damage - one youtuber has suggested it may have been careless smoking.
HACM(HYPERSONIC AIRBREATHING CRUISE MISSILE)
THE PROGRAM WHICH STEMS FROM HAWC AND MOHAWC..!
Sure hypersonic can be done .. but with the MACH 5 plasma shield… it’s tough to see where your going and your GPS doesn’t work ..plus your windshield wipers melt
I guess they just wanted some MoHAWC.......
QQ: Does the US Navy Submarine Force have UNREP capability? I know it's possible since the Kriegsmarine did it during WWII, but I've never heard of it being done nowadays.
Yes, but there are only two submarine tenders in the surface fleet (and none laid up in reserve).
