Lockheed Martin has released new details about the air-launched hypersonic Mako missile, which promises to be the first hypersonic weapon in the world that can be launched from the internal weapons bay of not just the F-35, but the F-22 Raptor as well.
This new missile has been under development for seven years and has been touted by Lockheed officials as a “multi-mission” weapon system capable of maritime strike, counter-air defense, and a variety of other surface-attack operations. It was originally developed for the U.S. Air Force, but now may find a home with the U.S. Navy instead.
Let's talk about what we've learned about this groundbreaking new weapon.

I am a Marine Veteran and retired engineering manager from the aerospace and defense sector. I worked for many Tier 1 suppliers and I would like to compliment you on the quality of information that this channel provides .
I managed F35 systems, Javelin missile housing productions and various defense and commercial programs. I really enjoy the content because it adds to my knowledge base and it is not opinions and “click bait.”

Now that’s funny !!!!
dear god if they add the B-21 to war thunder it's all over for us, documents will be everywhere
@@domestosteron I probably shouldn't say this, lol however what's one of the smartest things you could do to trick the public* and adversaries? Allow it to look like information was leaked when the information was never correct in the first place ;)
Btw I wouldn't take any open source data very seriously, I've watched it change back and forth, Russia/China over hype, and U.S. downplays 100%
Lol
@@Anarchy_420 well said, countries love rumors too, it keeps their enemies guessing.
More proof that it was a terrible move not to fund 750 Raptors.
In hindsight yes but I’ve learned that politicians AND voters tend to not look that far into the future. The USSR collapsed and the now Russian federation was being friendly enough that it was not a popular idea to continue Cold War era spending.
@cadennorris960 Actually, there were high-ranking officials who did see that far ahead and argued for a full production run.
Unfortunately, they didn't get to make the final decision.
Brite side is now we get NGAD
Taken away too soon.

That reversed, skipped, draw two, wild draw 4 is going to hurt.
@@user-kl3lg7tf3n-anx1ous Mineshaft gap? We can't have that.
This looks proper though. Not a wonder weapon with limited platforms but a very safe option to put out there as anything still flying can strap up an become a huge menace to a carrier etc
old story. you can see it in the street everyday. the weak project strength. the strong project humility. only when the fight begins do most realize the barker ain't got the hands to match.
Glad to see that the research done to develop the B-1R has not gone to waste... turn every non stealthy aircraft into a bomb/missile truck while using data link and now you've got a force multiplier multiplied exponentially.
@@ZodiousE I like the way you think. Thanks
Yes! Put it on the Lighting 1 p38. Or maybe the Jug p47. Just dreaming. Maybe on Growling Sidewinder?
@@ZodiousE B-1R was designed for Air-Air, The B-1B should be more than capable of spamming out tons of Mako's! B-1R was for creating a wall of AMRAAM's!✌
This seems like the best way forward. Probably need to narrow the amount of different airframes we have for logistic reasons anyways.
@@John-mf6ky Yes, that's valid for streamlined supply. The problem is that the Navy needs a really strong framework, landing gear ect. That makes it heavy or, a weight penalty that the Airforce really doesn't need. So they could haul more fuel to extend the range. Just have to keep in our minds that more fuel equals more weight. Then if we could carry two times the fuel doesn't mean it will double the range. It doesn't take long to get bogged down with these issues. The F-35 that the Navy uses has a bigger wing. Hard to see it, but they are larger for slow flight to land on the carrier. The one the Marines use can land verticaley. I looks about the same but it's so different. All three versions look alike. They have the same F-35 family name but, A is Airforce. B is for Marines and C is the Navy version. It's a mess. While the names and several components are the same, they're all different. Sorry for the lengthy text.
The Russians had to make a big deal about their crappy hypersonic Kinzhal, so Lockheed Martin said, "Hold my beer."
And thank goodness they did!! Right in the nick of time.
Pretty much
US research into hypersonic missiles is so much more well established than anyone else. It's not yielded any platforms until now because they weren't fundamentally needed. While unproven that there is a distinct advantage to them vs non-hypersonics, logic says that there likely is, at least in some circumstances. This is supported by the choice of closing speed profile for the Mako. If it can be widely used and priced competitively with existing other weapons systems, then that's definitely a winner.
@rob6052
We shot satellites down with them from F15s decades ago.
@@danboyd2725We did it once to prove we could. But most of the satellites were our's, so...

Punishment for grunts taking out a loan at more than 30% interest.
Imagine how much pain The F-15EX could bring loaded out with Mako's and couple AIM-174's!🤯
Lol plus AIM-260's and or AGM-183's!
I hope the Air Force integrates the AIM-174 onto the F-15ex. It can carry 6 and maybe 8. The F-35/F-15ex combo would be a formidable force.
It seems like just about everything that can fly can carry and fire this Missile

200 mile range sounds a little short for a vehicle capable of mach 5. That would cover 200 miles in a little more than 3 minutes, ignoring the time to accelerate from launch speed to mach 5. Simply amazing

Nice warm welcome to Chinese intel analysts who may be watching.
They have sympathizers and nationals comment a lot.
@@NoGoodHandlesComingToMind Yes. You don't have to steal anything. Just Google it.
LoL. Intentional press release. China was just stroking their own about their new missle systems a few months ago. This is just to remind China that they will forever picking up our scraps, never cooking the meal that sits on the table.

OH!
The 187 F-22s have kept the peace for almost 25 years without breaking the bank with maintenance costs, so I call that a success.
@@Sect10n31 Luck, not foresight.
@@Chuck_Hooks Not Luck. It's sheer intimidation. Otherwise, the 1st air-to-air kill for an F-22 would certainly not be a Chi-Com spy ballon.
@Sect10n31 Lucky that the absurdly low F-22 numbers we have were enough.
USAF didn't just pull the number 750 out of its behind.
That number takes into account dealing with more than one serious crisis at a time, maintenance, availability and having enough aircraft that suppliers could stay in business making spare parts.
Anything that doesn't break the bank, is a success.
More like 150-160 combat coded F-22s. There's probably a dozen that can't be armed at all. Also you'll never have 100% availability. Every hour of flight is probably 40-60 hours of maintenance.
In other words lockheed martin doing lockheed martin things.
As always
Except this program is on-time and under budget.
this and the 174 just let us know that we were actually 15 years further ahead than we thought we were
I see that the USA is thinking about reversing the retirement of the F-22 raptor, promoting notable modernizations to the aircraft, this in my opinion is great news.
It might be more economical than rolling out 6 th gen NGAD
@Jonasbarbury Economical short term this is to keep air dominance till ngad rolls out
@@yurialves26 Yes that's good news. Thanks
@@Jonasbarbury I believe that the Pentagon must be fighting the war against China, a 6th generation fighter would not be ready in time
@@Morallyimmoral1 It is more economical, but the Pentagon is thinking about war against China, the NGAD must be a priority in the long term.
Finally some good news. I always wanted a missile that is small enough to be fit into a jet but also goes hypersonic
The U.S. was just being nice and giving china and Russia a (perceived) head start for hyper sonic.
@@kylezdancewicz7346yep we had our first research hypersonics in the 60s. we just never had a strong enough use for them to beat the cost of development until recently, and that "recently" came from a large drop in design cost, mostly thanks to better computing capabilities
tbh our next ace up our sleeve is likely to be lasers. not just anti-missile, but like downing planes and chewing through steel reliably. the main thing holding us back now is battery density.
The a heck of flex for the F-22
A video about the X65 and active flow control would be cool.
Radar operator: “Sir, that supersonic bumblebee just burped out a hypersonic telephone pole!”
Officer: “what’s the….”
Signal lost.
A-10's with 8 hypersonic missiles, letsgooo.
I wonder how much efficiency a missile loses if the body isn't round. I would think you could maximize propelant per missile inside the F-22 weapons bay if they were more oval or rounded rectangle shaped.
The US Army just chose General Dynamics and Rheinmetall as finalists for the 4000 Bradley replacement IFVs (well, a year ago).
Could you do a Firepower series video about this program, the two finalists and the other three that dropped out. Or more generally the current state of IFVs (Bradley, CV90, Puma, Lynx) and their most likely future. Maybe even including anti air IFVs like some CV90 variants and SkyRanger.
Lynx is such a cool vehicle
@@texasranger24 Great idea.

@@user-wb1wk8uz8x He has expanded to Sea Power Land Powder and I think Space Power. Ground Power. Maybe not land but Ground.

Role = roll
Good Job Brother, Semper Gumby. I wonder Habitual Line Crosser will incorporate this
he's already touched on it at least once
@@ravengrey6874 Yeah, he had a bit where the Buff said he was getting a photon torpedo
LM... always ahead of the game.
Bet General Atomic drones could provide F-15 & F-18 missiles targeting data
Can you explore the feasibility of the Precision Strike Missile being adapted to airborne launch? It's shorter, slimmer and lighter than the AIM-174B and would be a great strike option against land and maritime targets. It should be very affordable as Navy and AF orders could piggyback on massive Army orders
PRSM is short enough for the F-35 and F-22 bays as well.
I guess saying "source at Lockheed Martin" sounds cooler than "PR department at Lockheed Martin".
Ok, let's be honest. AirPower is the real reason we all come here. Speak up, come on, you know it's true.
Alex this episode is jam-packed. I'm rewatching it again, right now!
Why wasn't this chosen for SIAW then, or what makes Northrop's missle better?🤔
Pretty much said it at the start. It's cheaper.
Oh this makes me so proud. Glad you mentioned that the f22 can internally carry it. 🇺🇸🇺🇸
maybe I missed it but imagine the US Army getting these for their Typhon ground launched missile system for coastal defense. Typing error corrected
Typhon not Typhoon
Great idea. Or put them on the new 4×4 Tomahawk launch vehicle the U.S. Marines have.
No, PRSM is better for ground launch.
This is an air launched smaller lower end hypersonic missile you would have to put an additional booster on it to get it to speed and altitude, at that point you might as well load typhon with the OPFIRES glide vehicle
@@Dan-nx9zn He did mention that there is a plan to attach a booster so it can be launched from the Navy's standard VLS. So there is no reason why that version could not be land launched from a mobile launcher.
The Casey Kasem estate probably wants a residual for that introduction Alex.
I just saw this on their website this morning!
Props to the guy towing the targets!
Lots of “if, and, but, could…maybe” involved here.
But, it sounds like a credible system that certainly has potential.
Good stuff Alex!
Not really. Its ready to go. Just need to buy it.
Honestly there will be 3 years of talking about how great this missile is, than it will get cancelled and he will make 5 videos talking about how this missile was never good to begin with.
uh-oh, you're raining on the we're so good, we're so cool, we're so strong parade with facts. They don't like that.
Props for the "girthier" reference 😂
Amazing videos my man! Thanks for the great information!
Yo, you know how you asked for some Cryptid Plane ideas!
F-19 Stealth Fighter, SR-75, and RQ-180!🙏👍
Isn’t the F-19 literally the frisbee?
Good stuff, Alex - always worth a watch!
Unlike Russian “hypersonics” this U.S. one is the real deal. 🫡
O, fool...
It is also an air launched semi-ballistic missile just as Khinzal...
These missiles are used for high value targets, so the price tag should be worth it. The US military has other missiles plenty capable of dealing with anything Russia or China has. These missiles simply let other countries know that invading Taiwan is a bad idea.
@Sandboxx - would that also mean that transport craft like the C-5, C-17, C-130, etc could also deploy them using a system like Rapid Dragon and/or the REVOLVER launcher system?
We all love a good Missile Trucks!!! P-8 missle truck? Yes please.
Replace the F-22s with 300 long range B-21 Raiders that can act as both recon sniper, quarterback, & return fire with dozens of air-to-air missiles each.
I feel like everything is gunna move towards mother ships with drones. Have you seen the one missile that hovers around and can land itself if it doesn't find a target.
I'm a dyslexic and can't spell the word for the type of weapons they are called and spell check can't make sense of the garbage im putting in.

Sandbox is the best informational delivery system
The Kid with a hypersonic missile is scary. That can really kick open any door. This may be a game changer. Large aircraft launching a hundred of these can suppress any air defense system in a large area. Can we say B-52 & B-1 on the way. Great job on the development. Semper Fi Sandboxx.
The USN would be foolish not to adopt this.
Keep Congress out of it. Let them use the same toys for once. 😅
Time to build more F22 Raptors.
The factory model F-22 uses a 25 MHz equivalent CPU processor, which are slower than the Intel Pentium chip.
an efficient cheap cpu that does its job fine despite its simplicity? 🤯
meanwhile russian jets that still have vacuum bulbs
Embedded systems do not need a lot of compute.
The primary compute demands of the f-35 don't have much to do with the actual flying of the aircraft.
The most interesting question in my mind for a few years now has been about modernization...
The air force made a big deal when they unveiled the b-21 that it was the first "6th generation aircraft" in part because of how the expected benefits of digitized engineering have finally come to fruition after decades of efforts, which supposedly made it vastly easier and faster to go from scratch to flying prototype.
Now, if they have made advances that are as big as they say they have, they could do some really neat things that would get you laughed at 10 years ago. Neat, like "port all of the f-35 avionics to the f-22" neat. Now that we're at the point of technical development where we are running entire aegis instances in virtualized containers, crazy things like "run the unmodified Ada code for the f-22 FCS in a virtual machine on a different hardware platform"
@@MonkeyMakerMakesThings What happens whenever the chips break down & needs replacement? Who the hell even makes them anymore??
@@Sect10n31 -- f22 uses chips in production
--- "who makes them anymore"
the chips are still produced lmao. thats how they put them in newer planes.
now tell me, who the hell makes vacuum tubes for old ass soviet planes?
Just to put it in perspective... at minimum Hypersonic speeds, if targeting something at the weapon's hypothetical max range of 200miles, it would take 3 minutes to arrive at the target.
Seems like LM lost a contest and is trying to recoup their investment by selling it to the Navy or getting lawmakers to force the AF to reconsider by touting it's capabilities.
Meanwhile the SIAW gets no coverage because NG doesn't have to.
Makes you wonder what capabilities SIAW has that the AF could decide Mako wasn't worth pursuing at all.
Budget problems. Theyd buy it if they could but other issues need to be dealt with first.
I wanna know who the guy is who's driving the truck pulling the target vehicles. He's got guts!
6:10 What the hell, I thought that F-35 broke apart. That was a very weird glitch.
yep, video compression glitch
I wish you would do an in-depth episode about 2 different “black” programs .
1. The brilliant buzzard/dark star tsto plane that we “never built”
2. The “senior citizen” vtol craft .
I would enjoy that immensely
Open system architecture leaves you open to more attacks targeting your architectural weak point plug and Play leaves you open to plug and penetrate
The f22 will be the test mule for a hypersonic engine to, I've been saying it for awhile. It's clearly our best airframe
@3:20 for actual content
Thanks for uploading this the day after I got home from Oshkosh😂
F-35 with MAKO, with a couple of Kratos Valkyrie wingmen loaded with Peregrine missiles... Sounds like fun!
Followed by a few 4th gen with AIM-174B and JASSM ER...
@Sandboxx, can you cover what sort of manned vehicles the US Space Force might use in the future? What would the first orbital-patrol ship look like?
I love how ahead of everyone else Sandboxx is
Let’s get this missile in full production! 🇺🇸🇺🇸
I can hear the excitement in your voice
The P8 Poseidon is an interesting aircraft & this video explains how the f35 is the quarterback in the sky.
I hope they adapt it to be fired from MK-41 VLS systems. It sounds like they might be able to duel pack them or maybe even quad pack them in the VLS cells.
ATACMS, Javelin, etc. all also use FPGAs so there's nothing to reverse engineer. all the signal processing goes bye bye as soon as it loses power.
The Mako needs to be more "POINTY"
Uh oh, better call MAKO
“MAKO MY DAY. You’ll wish you hadn’t.”

The Kid is already a monster, why give it more power?! xD
If Franklin has a blow torch than the kid needs hypersonic missles. It's pretty obvious
So much innuendo at 13:34 lol
As usual Great Update, TU
RAAF & USAF are currently working on another hypersonic missile with Northrop Grumman and RTX Corporation called the HACM "hypersonic attack cruise missile" operational capacity by 2027 with a operational range of 1,000m or 1,900 km at mach 8
You know it's a good video when Alex uses this intro song.
IYAOYAS! I love your content on air launched weapons
...and that's a hypersonic missille system that acctually works...
;p; HACM works even Australia is testing it in Australia with their FA18 Super Hornets as we speak.
In addition to the (probably fairly small) warhead, I wonder how much kinetic energy a mach 5+ missile will be able to deliver to its target? Maybe more that the warhead? IF it hit-to-kill, but I'd think that the effects of blast fragmentation, rods, etc, would be more with a missile as fast as this seems to be...
Does anyone know? I find that aspect of hypersonics very compelling (see: SM-3, GBMD, etc.)
My sources also say it can also be carried by my local Cessna as long as there are no passengers or their luggage
Alex ROCKS!
Looks good in concept. Only problem is the Air Force, Navy and the military command. That will set this program back at least 20 years and $50B in onerous requirements.
The military excels at taking a great concept and creating a boondoggle that is ultimately cancelled.
Wait, is this an air to air missile or an air to ground missile? Or does it have a variable warhead?
Air to ground. It probably doesn't have the terminal maneuverability at Mach 5+ to hit a target moving at hundreds of miles per hour. Tens of miles per hour like cars or ships, but not something moving as fast as a jet. The guaranteed kill basket would be very small, probably too small to be practical for air to air use.
We arent even talking about loading up a squadron of B-21s with these things or something similar. The airforce said it was more than a bomber. How about an invisible missile truck?
