@spikedpsycho they are predicted to have an impact velocity of about mach 5 with a 200 mile range, that might be shorter ranged then missiles but they have an absurd amount of kinetic energy and nothing, absolutely nothing, is going to stop that round coming in at mach 5, there simply arent countermeasures against something like that yet and there likely wont be by the time they become practical. To be fair, that time might be quite far into the future so for now missiles are indeed far superior.
@spikedpsycho The range can be achieved by firing in a high arc significantly reducing the drag, the impact force is equivalent or superior to current navy cannons at about 10MJ. I cant say much about the rest as i havent looked up enough information to have a well informed opinion, I will go off you data for now. Railguns would prove usefull agaisbt stationard targets but I see your doubts about their actual effectiveness in comparison to missiles.
@spikedpsycho I have seen multiple reports of railgun rounds being GPS guided, closer to the way cruise missiles work then conventional rounds. Range has also been tested to be higher then you claim it to be. Youre also not considering the scale, its not be a needle thats fired but a rod made to have as much mass as possible fired by a 155mm naval cannon. Airbursts arent needed either as the kinetic force is enough to more then match that of convential guns, and thats with railguns still being far from perfection. The ammunition on the zumawalt calls wasn't a railgun round but a round accelerated with its own thrust after leaving the barrel which made it so expensive. Thats why the navy is looking into using railguns as a replacement. If we continue to make claims and counterclaims I would suggest using sources to prove your point.
@spikedpsycho For any of my claims I use wikipedia as a source as its very reliable and usually unbiased, can you provide me the source for you arguments?
Lol have you seen how much damage scorpion can take in the first movie? He got shot at by 2 A-10 warthogs and shot multiple times with a 102mm canon and all that happened was his tail fell off.
Assuming a 50kg projectile, launched at Mach 7. K=(m*v^2)/2 That thing had a kinetic energy a hair short of 142 megajoules. In the movie, the projectile went through the Decepticon like it wasn't even there. The Decepticon then proceeded to literally fall to pieces. This is probably the most realistic scene in the entire movie.
John Turturro was not suppose to climb on the pyramid. When he started doing his act he started climbing and Michael Bay was like "oh shit, well they aint arresting us."
LOL Not at all. He was allowed to. No Hollywood director would actually film a movie disrespecting a pyramid. That's not a "cool tidbit" about the movie at all....that's just being a disrespectful jerk.
Agreed. The reason he wasn't supposed to climb it and what I should have said in my earlier comment, he was climbing the wrong pyramid; like Devastator here he was supposed to be at a different pyramid. He was allowed to climb pyramid but climbed the wrong one, instead climbing one they hadn't asked for. That's where the yells came from.
@Jacob OHanian Would've had no effect (even worse, the Fallen likely would've just turned the weapon against them). This was explained in the film. The Fallen can only be killed by a Prime (and Optimus is the last surviving Prime).
Like ending the entire fight by blasting the shit out of the Star Harvester’s exposed portion? Why the fuck would you only fire a single projectile from such a powerful weapon? Why am I seriously analyzing Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen?
@Seannotconnery the rail gun is powerful but it puts out a lot of heat n it has to cool down before it can fire again not to mention maintenance that had to be performed before it can fire again it is by no means a efficient weapon
TMachine97 ...cmon let's be honest here megan was why we even fckn bothered...and boy am i glad of i did..sexxxy...as far as the steel balls are concerned..bollocks..only way you're gonna hit em from 200 fckn miles away is...if they were tap dancing on spot for 10fckn minutes.
remember, anytime us military assets are used in films, pentagon can revise and edit a script as they see fit. that means the giant roboballs were approved by military officials in the pentagon.
The railgun generates so much force with its speed that if implemented, it would make explosives obsolete in terms of stopping power. It brings a whole new definition to speed kills.
This is Agent Seymour Simmons of Sector Seven. There is a mother of all non biologicals getting ready to blow up our sun. Do you wanna help throwdown about my lack of clearance, or do you wanna help save a gazillion lives?!
Travis Crane some rail gun designs do glow before hand, however it isn't the naval one. and also Tanmang42 it wasn't molten plasma, it was an Armour piercing Tungsten carbide shell.
Real life railguns, Mach 7 projectile. Transformers, blue glowing laser gun with Mach 50.... still awsome. Anyone wondering where the projectile went after it killed Devastator?
Well the glowing would make sense if the magnetic rails where that charged and exposed but thats just for movie purposes lol in real life you'd need a very good cinductor with a high melting point lol
I remeber watching this scene as a kid and immediately falling in love the idea of railguns and other kinetic weapons that just fire a solid projectile fast enough to punch through damn near everything.
And the way they work is just so fucking cool! Imagine having a little piece of iron or some other magnetic metal behind a lead bullet and having the metal piece stop at the edge of the barrel, separating itself from the now nonmagnetic bullet that’s travelling faster than John Mulaney when he was screaming out zingers on cocaine!

Devastator: _Prepare to meet your Doom!_ _Nothing can withstand the might of Devastator!_ And in this movie, Devastator couldn't withstand a railgun. lol
Transformers are much more powerful in the comics and old tv show. I swear megatron was hit by a weapon called a "kinetic harpoon" with "more destructive power than a tactical nuke" and when he walks up to optimus, he says "I must admit, that did hurt" then basically wrecks optimus and carries him to an autobot base.
but your forgetting that plenty of transformers died by humans in that comic, e.g thrust and ironhide. not to mention, that issue your talking about was pure bs given how easily megatron is hurt in future issues.
Railgun requires a lot of energy which is probably why it's a prototype and it only fired 1 shot. A destroyer just doesn't output enough energy for a second shot.

To be fair, Devastor is a huge hulking mechanical alien, due to being made of several Decepticons. He would be slow as hell. He wouldn’t be like something from Pacific Rim 2, where they had some of the giant robots doing acrobatic shit. Standard Cybertronians are smaller, faster, unlikely to be hit.

I keep asking myself, how does Sam not have a special military or government commission to be a liaison with the Autobots. He has good relations and has been in every fireball the military has where the autobots are involved. Even with his age being a factor, these are special circumstances with no prior precedence.
That was his whole story arc in DOTM, he tried multiple times but the government turned him down labeling him as an amateur. By the end of the movie he just ditches all of that and just focus on his relationship with Carly.
I use to work next to the USA Kidd back in the early 90s. It hasn't been at sea in over 50 years. Hard to believe looking at it that it as been around the world
David Holaday there was a transformer heaven. No reason to bring in the humans characters. bad dialogue. and people like to hate on Michael bay for anything he does cause he isn't artsy fartsy but makes loads of money; hating on him makes you feel cultured even though you just another basic bitch.
Because after the first movie that was actually good, they made a second movie where the autobots and transformers in general swear and act like morons.

So many comments about real life situations :p in real life, this thing would break apart, because its front is open. Or maybe nor even fire because the rails are really far apart. And if they got the needed energy to make this senseful, it would break apart :> RIGHT BELOW *short pause* enemies scrotum XD
the projectile bridges the gap between the rails anyway, so its hardly a factor with how far apart they are. the front NEEDS to be open in order for it to fire, simple as that

The railgun bares striking similarity to Halo reaches Onager MAC gun which also charges up and utilises electromagnets to fire a projectile at supersonic speeds. The design is extremely similar too and both are railguns.
He's a comic relief character, they can't die. Well, I guess Brains and Wheelie in Transformers 3 but... exception that proves the rule... or something.
Comedy during a battle or a climax generally seems like a bad idea. It gives the impression that the situation is funny and not really serious...so why should anyone care about it ?
A few nitpicking: The USN no longer operate any Battleships The Railgun is supposed to be mounted on the DDG-1000 USS-Zumwalt Captain Wilder implies that the USS Kidd (DDG-100) from the Arleigh Burke class has the rail guns mounted on it However, it was the USS Preble (DDG-88) that had the rail guns, not the Kidd. It also shows how REALLY weak the Decepticons are without the Railgun. A few airstrikes and naval bombardment (via Cruise missiles) is all what's needed. No need for an amphibious landing force. They just need a drone for spotting.
If you notice, the ship that actually fires the railgun in the movie is the Preble. Check the "88" on the bow. Minor details aside, at least that part is correct, though it's clearly CGI, and looks nothing like current railguns. Also, my old man served on a "kidd", DDG 993, for years before she was sold to Egypt.
+TEXAStooTAL L Humans did pretty good in these movies even with out the Autobots help. In the first Movie I totally believe those F22s would have destroyed Megatron if they just kept hitting him. And if you remember those military guys took out black out without help. Then there was Cemetary Wind in the fourth Movie. Yeah they had Lockdowns Help but they did pretty good taking out Transformers on there own. And in Dark of the Moon Also.
+KingreX32 yea but megatron wasn't targeting the jets his attention was on Optimus and when starscream was killing the jets he took out like 4 or 5 of them before they could even hit him with a missile and it didn't do shit to starscream so ya humans don't stand a chance against deceptions
I just love the idea of him yelling into the radio angry that he’s not able to reach anyone, and then a commander responds, and he’s almost dumbfounded

@@fritzdaddy-135mmgetstagger4 mom got butt-bumped by a wilder?
The only wars that the USA fights alone, and win, are in the movies.

that's some EU grade PJSalt right there
simunator I didn't understand a word of that.
john adams keep up with the memes or get left behind in dank old man
simunator Memes? You've lost me mate. I'm off to bed now with some hot chocolate and heart pills. :D
Devastator got balls of Steel
I keep asking myself, how does Sam not have a special military or government commission to be a liaison with the Autobots. He has good relations and has been in every fireball the military has where the autobots are involved. Even with his age being a factor, these are special circumstances with no prior precedence.
My guess he was offered but wanted a normal life, normal as possible
@@elgordo2162 That’s exactly why he just decided to go to college in Revenge of The Fallen.
That was his whole story arc in DOTM, he tried multiple times but the government turned him down labeling him as an amateur. By the end of the movie he just ditches all of that and just focus on his relationship with Carly.
I’m stationed on the USS John C. Stennis😀
I use to work next to the USA Kidd back in the early 90s. It hasn't been at sea in over 50 years. Hard to believe looking at it that it as been around the world
2:41 Now that is what I call devastated.
This was actually a good movie. It puzzles me why not many people liked it.
David Holaday there was a transformer heaven. No reason to bring in the humans characters. bad dialogue. and people like to hate on Michael bay for anything he does cause he isn't artsy fartsy but makes loads of money; hating on him makes you feel cultured even though you just another basic bitch.
Because after the first movie that was actually good, they made a second movie where the autobots and transformers in general swear and act like morons.
@@RavenbonesAnd also, they killed Arcee. That, was a mistake.
1:31. DON’T TALK TO ME ABOUT CLASSIFIED ALRIGHT?! Now if you’ve got a battleship in the Gulf, which I know you do, you tell ‘em to READY…. THAT…. WEAPON!!!
Contact destroyer USS kidd
2:11 Probably the funniest scene in transformers ever!
So many comments about real life situations :p in real life, this thing would break apart, because its front is open. Or maybe nor even fire because the rails are really far apart. And if they got the needed energy to make this senseful, it would break apart :> RIGHT BELOW *short pause* enemies scrotum XD
But what if the projectile is large enough that it fits within the gap in the rails?
@@jollygoodfellow3957 I already told you why its a non-working design dude....
@@LaserGadgets It's a sci-fi movie what the hell did you expect XD
My guy who tf is u
the projectile bridges the gap between the rails anyway, so its hardly a factor with how far apart they are. the front NEEDS to be open in order for it to fire, simple as that
2:19, actual DD. Real gun.
2:22 DAMN THEY REMODELED THAT SHIP FAST
Belkin level world of warships uprade speed
@@apocalypticsurvivor6111 Yeah you can upgrade them, but the Turret doesn't change fam
@@pizza1540 okeh
That railgun was a transformer this entire time
“DONT TALK TO ME ABOUT CLASSIFIED” always kills me
"Don't talk to me about classified" Simmons owns the captain
God I love Simmons. Hope he's on board for the last film.
2:16 “25.7 meters above sea level..” The peak of the King Khufu’s pyramid in Giza is actually around 208 meters above sea level. Fun fact.
Remember, he's talking *American* meters. Bigger than flaccid Euro surrender-metres.
Good to see a movie where the military isn't useless up until the climax
DO NOT TALK TO ME ABOUT CLASSIFIED
A Certain Alien Transformer.
hahaha i get that
I understood that reference.
Given her battle with the Doppelgänger literally
@@victorselve8349 Sorry but what does your and the original comment refer to?
@@Sk-vh5ox it's a refrence to the anime series called A Certain Scientific Railgun. The main character Misaka is named Railgun because of her electric powers which she can make a railgun out of. The series is a prequel side story of the series A Certain Magical Index.
Crazy how like 5 years after this movie was released the Navy Announced hey were testing a Railgun that shot at the exact speed he mentioned 7 Knots
ah yes 7 "knots" not Mach 7
if he says it"s classified, he admits it exists. Very smart.
Ah transformers, if I want my brain cells to die I just watch it
GOOD JOB MISAKA MIKOTO!
didn't disappoint..found what i looked for
NOO don't talk about anime they are unrealistically stupid
@@eddharriselmedulan6187 whatever buzzkill
They killed off Devastator because he was so damn hard to animate…computers can’t handle him
"Did we just invade Egypt?"
"Fuck yeah we did!"
One day that will exist. 'Murica.
RepublicanG8mer It already does exist. They're planning to mount it on Destroyers for testing this year. :) Should be fully operational by 2020 according to the DoD.
+LazyFaux5656 lol like they don't already have them fully functional and loaded on several Destroyers already. Why let the world know your true progress?
dkrypto911 Good point... It's ridiculous how amazing the U.S. Military really is, I swear. We're decades ahead of anyone else, or, we use to be..
+RepublicanG8mer I already sold the plans to Russia and China. Muahahahah.
You're all idiots. The US isn't even creating these. The UK is making them for them. lmao. And it was invented in France, there's nothing American about it
+LazyFaux5656 Funny thing is. Now, by your own logic, you are decades behind them...
2:29 "Oh shit my arm fell off! SHIT MY EVERYTHING FELL OFF!"
The railgun bares striking similarity to Halo reaches Onager MAC gun which also charges up and utilises electromagnets to fire a projectile at supersonic speeds. The design is extremely similar too and both are railguns.
no matter how advanced a alien race you can still beat it with a fast enough chunk of old realiable lead lmao.
Depleted uranium. Lead would probably liquefy before it got the end of the barrel
The acting between Agent Simmons and Captain Wilder is just amazing!
One A-10 would have done the job cheaper.
Woulda been shot down
Some say the projectile is still flyin til this very day.
Random guy on radio: “FIRE THAT WEAPON!!!!”
High-ranked Navy Guy: “Ok….”
“Contact destroyer” damn thats so fire
The Capt. face at 1:01 is like, "Did this dude just say Sector 7? Well its finally
happened"
BAE Systems are currently working on this weapon.
I love how a simple 'ting' sound is all the sound that got made when they killed 30 ton monster.
Yeah but his scream as he falls down and breaks apart was hilarious... BTW are you sure just 30 tonnes, that's probably one of his legs 😉
so no rocks hit Simmons....how bazaar
he was on the left side of pyramid
Arby
The shockwave alone would have killed him.
And no falling rock sounds too
He's a comic relief character, they can't die.
Well, I guess Brains and Wheelie in Transformers 3 but... exception that proves the rule... or something.
gpoop23 brains didn't die he's in TF4 but wheelie died
i love transformers and imo the trilogy was entertaining. but i could do without the comedic relief..
Comedy during a battle or a climax generally seems like a bad idea.
It gives the impression that the situation is funny and not really serious...so why should anyone care about it ?
Yeah, that's true. Just get rid of the idiotic characters and keep the cooler human characters and that's it.

every time they show the guy, there's a pyramid in the back ground, which is exactly the one that is being climbed by the robot.
Rail Gun: One shot a Transformer.
Also Rail Gun: Two shots a Bile Titan.
"I am directly below.... enemy scrotum."...……………………..Best line in this scene XD
Now you have to ask yourself: why didn't they just use the railgun to try to destroy the pyramid?
No damn clue
They got one homie
Just a movie, but I'd be upset if I even saw the Pyramid get fictionally destroyed. What it stands for is timeless and Universal.
If that would even reach the Star Harvester inside it. Don't hurt the pyramid.
Simple, it couldn't destroy it
2:30 damn, Mosin-Nagant is one hell of a rifle
For some reason that "TING!" was extremely satisfying
So I just notice an ARCEE Twin friendly fire another ARCEE TWIN XD
Quake III Announcer: "Holy Shit!"
2:10
The real footage of balls of steel
Superman: man of steel
Transformers: Balls of steel
*“WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU, YOU WATCHING THE WEATHER CHANNEL?”*
"When our battleships have railguns in 2020 we will be able to repel the Decepticon invasion!"
Don't... Please just don't 2020's bad enough bruv
A few nitpicking:
The USN no longer operate any Battleships
The Railgun is supposed to be mounted on the DDG-1000 USS-Zumwalt
Captain Wilder implies that the USS Kidd (DDG-100) from the Arleigh Burke class has the rail guns mounted on it
However, it was the USS Preble (DDG-88) that had the rail guns, not the Kidd.
It also shows how REALLY weak the Decepticons are without the Railgun. A few airstrikes and naval bombardment (via Cruise missiles) is all what's needed. No need for an amphibious landing force. They just need a drone for spotting.
He did say contact destroyer, not battleship.
also its a michael bay film, you really expect him to be correct in all details?
Indeed.
Simmons does say "Battlleship" in 1:35 though, but I guess he's generalizing ships.
Don't assume ship classes
If you notice, the ship that actually fires the railgun in the movie is the Preble. Check the "88" on the bow. Minor details aside, at least that part is correct, though it's clearly CGI, and looks nothing like current railguns.
Also, my old man served on a "kidd", DDG 993, for years before she was sold to Egypt.
If you pay attention to the first scene of the destroyer, you can see that there is no rail gun in the front but a normal cannon.
1 of my favourite movies i never get sick of watching it
That was amazing!
I like how it showed the destroyer with a 5 inch gun and then it switches to a rail gun
"You've shared your intelligence with us but not your advancements in weaponry?"
2:30 I don't think we need them.
+TEXAStooTAL L
Humans did pretty good in these movies even with out the Autobots help. In the first Movie I totally believe those F22s would have destroyed Megatron if they just kept hitting him. And if you remember those military guys took out black out without help.
Then there was Cemetary Wind in the fourth Movie. Yeah they had Lockdowns Help but they did pretty good taking out Transformers on there own. And in Dark of the Moon Also.
+KingreX32 Simple military jets would have definitely not taken Megatron himself out, not when he was at his best.
+KingreX32 yea but megatron wasn't targeting the jets his attention was on Optimus and when starscream was killing the jets he took out like 4 or 5 of them before they could even hit him with a missile and it didn't do shit to starscream so ya humans don't stand a chance against deceptions
I just love the idea of him yelling into the radio angry that he’s not able to reach anyone, and then a commander responds, and he’s almost dumbfounded
This is the best Marines ad I've seen!
