  • Do you know these 50 submarine facts?
    The US Navy's submarine force is known as the Silent Service- quiet, deadly, and utterly secretive, they represent everything that makes these weapons of battle the most feared by sailors on the high seas. With nations around the world fielding submarines ranging in size from half of that of an aircraft carrier to barely the length of a school bus, these undersea terrors are as versatile as they are deadly.
    Hello and welcome to another episode of The Infographics Show - today we're taking a look at 50 incredible facts about the history, development, and deployment of submarines.

      The coolest thing about subs for me... is that they taste so darn good with white bread, roast beef, lettuce, onion and mayo.
      All served in a little deli; that piles ON the BEEF...
      unlike corporate food places that DO NOT! My gosh, if you go into a place (I will just call bun-way) you get 90% bun and like 10% meat. You have to pay a whole buck for 1extra slice of meat! Also: It's meat that has been processed like crazy, shipped to us over sea's & frozen for MONTHS before we eat it!
      NO thank you...
      I just love a good SUB from my favorite little hometown deli.

      @daniel_poore Před 2 lety +1

      That whole part of the video was mixed up. The Russian K-129 laid one the floor as 1 piece, and the CIA mission was designed to grab the entire sub, but when lifiting, some of the "claw" made to grab it broke, which in turn snaped the k-129 into a lopsided half. They were only able to recover that forward part that the claw device was still able to fully support. Weird how they depicted it here since this channel has a very detailed video on the entire operation.

      It's the truth... Trident missiles and their mirvs account for about half the entire nuclear arsenal of the country.. this is on purpose because of the stealthiness , survivability, and endurance of the subs they are aboard... They are only limited by the amount of food they can carry for the crew... They set sail in secret, remain in secret sitting silently is strategic places around the world. And can reach any place on earth. And in all out nuclear war, are likely the only surviving military assets ... In nuclear war all effort will be to neutralize the opposing countries ability to retalliate .. China and Russia both have long known the location of our minutemen silos.. airplane delivery is fraught with danger due to radar, and other ways to see them coming.. that's why so.much emphasis is put on the b2 spirits stealth capabilities.. this make nuclear missile attack subs the most deadly, reliable, survivable and likely to be used means of attack in nuclear confrontation

    One time in WW2, on a quiet June night, Japanese submarine I-25 attempted to enter the Columbia river (between Washington and Oregon). But at the entrance of the river, there was a coastal defense artillery base (Fort Stevens) which they needed to get past. They started firing at the around the area with its 3 inch deck gun. The fort chose to not return fire and go lights out as to not give away its position. The submarine eventually gave up and turned around. During the incident, there were no casualties and the only thing destroyed was part of a baseball field.

First off, the Akula isn't a ballistic missile sub, it's a fast attack sub. And second, the Typhoon was WAY bigger, with a length of 574 feet, beam of 75 feet, and a displacement of over 48,000 tons submerged. The Akula is big for a fast attack sub, but not a big submarine overall.

I feel like to this day I could step inside the USS Texas and tour guide the whole thing effectively haha. I love that beautiful beast and I feel at home inside her legendary hull. I'm so glad they finally took her to be repaired, and honestly I'd love to see her put in dock with the USS Cavalia and USS Stewart at Seawolf Park on Pelican Island, Galveston. She'll be taken better care of for there than anywhere else as they've done a good job at keeping the Cavalia and Stewart looking great.

      @Siti Mufida Hasana No, because he gave the length of 372ft. Our Ohio Class is 560Ft. Red flags should have gone off for them at 372ft....

    14:47 I wonder if the underground waterway was inspired by Stingray in 1964?

    The Turtle, built in 1775. The world's first sub with documented combat use. Built by David Bushnell, funded by George Washington. Used in the American Revolution, she failed to sink a single ship and her carrier was eventually sunk while aboard.

      Nice try but was also the first submarine detected by the enemy if I'm not mistaken.

      No, the Turtle wasn't the first of it's class. Along history many other had done similar machines. The first working submarine as we know it today was the one built up bu Isaac Peral in 1888. He solved all the problems of the submarine machinery of that time. He designed an underwater navigation system, he designed the torpedo launching system using a german tube and he also solved the propulsion question by using 2 electrical engines powered by batteries. Al the previous ones like the Turtle worked on pedals or had to be towed. The first working submarine wasn' t american, it was made in Spain.
      Oh, and I forgot this. He made the ship as silent as possible becouse he thought that the enemy could find it by it's noise. He did this before the invention of the sonar, he was a great visionary.

    Am i the only one to realise that the thumbnail is actually based on a cyclops concept for subnautica? (the concept’s name is the manta)

    Your thumbnail is concept art for a game called Subnautica. I hope you didn't just steal that from them.
