- Lockheed Martin is pushing for funding for the development of an ER version of the THAAD to counter maturing threats posed by hypersonic glide vehicles adversaries may employ, namely the Chinese WU-14, to penetrate the gap between low and high-altitude missile defenses. The company performed static fire trials of a prototype modified THAAD second booster in 2006 and continued to self-fund the project until 2008. The current 14.5 in (37 cm)-diameter single-stage booster design would be expanded to a 21 in (53 cm) first stage for greater range with a second "kick stage" to close the distance to the target and provide improved velocity at burnout and more lateral movement during an engagement. Although the kill vehicle would not need a redesign, the ground-based launcher would have to be modified with a decreased interceptor capacity from eight to five. Currently, THAAD-ER is an industry concept and not a program of record, but Lockheed believes the Missile Defense Agency will show interest because of the threats under development by potential adversaries. If funding for the THAAD-ER began in 2018, a fielded product could be produced in 2022. Although the system could provide some capability against a rudimentary hypersonic threat, the Pentagon is researching other technologies like directed energy weapons and railguns to be optimal solutions. Therefore, the THAAD-ER would be an interim measure to counter the emerging threat until laser and railgun systems capable of performing missile defense come online, expected in the mid to late-2020s

As an Ordnance Inspector, THAAD is the shit.
We South Korea need whole lot more than 2 batches of THAAD system.

both militarys americans and south koreans already uses patriots missiles
@James Smith Missiles are arguably the bigger threat due to their role as nuclear delivery systems.
Pentagon should react promptly and finance this extended range THAAD since this is the only system that can provide us with some rudimentary anti hypersonic capability in a short period. THAAD is tried and proved and by just adding one more booster stage rocket motor the interceptor missile can reach incredible speeds capable of knocking out hyperosnic missiles. Base line THAAD travels at around Mach 8. With this additional booster I wouldn't be surprised that it could reach Mach 15-16.
This would of course be a stop gap solution until DARPA's counter hypersonics program moves from the R&D program towards the real development by the MDA.
Might as well bring back Sprint missiles as well.
@@Darkwizzrobe Don't get me started on those puppies. What a marvel of engineering. Reaching Mach 10 within a few seconds, and all that in 1960s. Those guys were giants of industry.
damm!! this is some good stuff. I see why the Russians and the Chinese are worried as this system is being deployed to South korea.
Andre Acha russian s400
Ravi kumar you do know that those numbers only signify range right? such as s300, s400 or the s500. don't get me wrong, range is good. But more importantly is the degree to which they can resist Electronic jamming and a host of other things. Secondly Russian Rader systems have often been bitten in places like Iraq and also in Syria when the Israeli bomb their nuclear plant like they did in Iraq as well. The Russian systems did do a lot of damage to the Americans in the Vietnam war. So in a nut Shell, this systems are not absolute. some are better than some and they can always use some improvement from time to time.
Andre Acha hug
Andre Acha they are really over reacting. Thaad can't intercept anything larger than a IRBM, it's just to slow. For a ABM system it's short range system made for local defence. It can defend South Korea but not anything flying by aimed at the continental US or Japan.
THAAD is only rated against IRBMs and MRBMs it can probably catch an ICBM in boost phases.(~150 seconds before it reaches Mach 20). However it has to be close to the ICBM,which is fine against North Korea.

US Missile Defense capability is very classified. Hillary Clinton in leaked speeches claimed current US missile defenses could ring China probably referring to SM-3 ships. The reason Russia and China are contantly improving their nukes to pierce US defenses.
I am fan of American tech
Thtas what Tawain needs for defence against CCP
very impressive
Random Videos - Cr1TiKaL Full Streams but just a cartoon video. it is impressive.
Hollywood. 1 Rocket Russia include 5-10 nucleo warhead. New Russia rocket flying at the speed of 7-10 km/s. The rocket is capable of maneuver.
THHAD isn't designed against ICBM's. Fail on your part, smart ass.
Andru Smith and you fucking idiot think the U.S hasn't had the capability of multiple nuclear warheads in one missile tip? You must be another Putin groupie.
Go Lockheed!! Meet those threats 2 thumbs up.
Impressive and educating. It only improves from here.
this thing made china's df-21 look puny, thats good
Amazing piece of equipment
Thaad , pac3 , Sm-3 , David sling , Arrow , iron dome nice
The world really is lucky to have the US, can you imagine if North Korea was the biggest military power, or Iran, Russia, Philipeans, or any other aggressive irrational country, US seems a good country to be at top, not the best, but definitely up there, it'd be very worrying when China surpasses them, India and its neighbour won't be save, especially since China is redirecting water away from its neighbours to the north
The problem with the thaad is its cost
I'd like to order a set of 12.

great and order toy model rockets from the local hobbys stores or online and have fun launch it at the local park
3/7/2017 The S. Korea deployment of these things got me interested in these. Hope they don't have to use one :/
This is going to be _AWESOME!!!_ 🚀 💥 💥💥 🚀 💥 💥
Missile Defender just got real.
Lockheed Martin, that's some bad-ass shit you got there.
Where can I donate?
You're donating every day you work if you're paying taxes in the U.S. Waste of taxpayers money. Here in Europe we worry more about the welfare of the people rather than white elephant projects.
you have to thanks US spend their money on Europe defense to make you enjoy your so call "welfare", if the US stop their taxpayer to fund your defense, Europe will become a part of Russia very soon. All your way of life will become history without those " white elephant projects".
lizadonrex Lizadonrex, that is absolutely ridiculous! You've been watching too much american propaganda LOL
cleric768 This is not propaganda, is the number and fact. and you sounds like know nothing about the cold war history.
Europe spends more on nonsense programs like Germany's Energie-whatever - a con program of "substituting" nuclear for coal, gas and solar. It definitely does not spend that much on welfare.
"Congradulations!" 💯
Australia needs this to compliment our new naval and air force resources. I hope the govt purchases it sooner thsn later as North Korea is a real threat to the asia pacific.
@James Smith We don't have Huawei 5 g. It was the Aussies signals directorate that informed the Yanks of the threat. But the POHMS do.
these should be deployed all along the border of this US, mixed with PAC3. At least until the US missile defense shield is fully deployed.
THAAD should realistically be deployed in every major city in the US. Even if in small batteries
God Bless America & the Good.
one shot for every time he says THAAD ER
Excelent
I wonder how fast a thaad missle would be with 3 stages,but I'm shure it would be wicked.
Virgin Chinese ICBM vs the THAAD Missile defense system.
These were sold out on Amazon. 1 billion dollars for the truck, launcher and 7 missiles. free shipping. radar not included. another 300 million for that.
the baddest fastest most advance missile in the world truly amazing
Brandon Black missile defence * the ICBM themselves are way more advanced
SM-3 ain't too bad either!
The forbidden model rocket
This guy need more voice over work
lets make lots of thads
i love these fucking videos
We need more advancements for thaad and aegis
the answer to their goose stepping dreams
Japan Taiwan demand urgently for
Sold!
What the difference between rnage and defended area? If im trying to defend. 200km do i look for range if defended area? I think the later can someone clarify please
1:40 oh my god, I'm back in Supreme Commander
gotta get that tech 3 shield generator back up, the next wave is coming!
I wouldn't put any delivery schedule on this. Unless somebody is trying to tell the adversaries "hey, we ain't got it yet".
Who names these things?
Thad was the slow kid when I was in school.
M.A.D. has been rendered obsolete
is this fire-and-forget type?
With a 6/4 failure to success ratio I wouldn't depend on this system to save your ass from anything.
Thanks colonel, but I thought we here to stop metal gear..
To hit the the target travelling nearly 9 kilometres per second is not so easy like that,that target will come over your head when you just guess its incoming.
But yaa,neither Russian S-400 is so capable to do that .
Not director i meant DICTATOR
Why no robot voice?
Can it stop a Brahmos?
There is PAC-3 for Brahmos.
Alexis Lysenko why can’t the thaad do it?
ESSM able to stop Brahmos
liked :)
We're #1 USA USA USA :P
What good is it or has it been tested against a hyperbalistic missle?
Up in space icbm hbt.slow too
Many times. 16 for 16 lately.
There might be a big problem: Can THAAD(ER) deal with an incoming missile or MIRV that can change its trajectory in flight? If not, then the enemy incoming just needs to change its direction one or more times and THAAD(ER) will miss it, thus allowing the enemy incoming to strike its target.
Yes, it believe it can. At 1:33 you can see the 40x divert picture. I think the cone shows how far the missile can go out of its original trajectory to fix its path to hit the target
@@bruhmomento4590 good observation.
It said it can retain targets mid flight
"just" xD
Whats the retail on one of those?
100 dollars per missle
missles made in China
eddie sanin BRUUHHHH that's a steal? Where can I pick mine up?
Unfortunately, it is not enough, soon enough.... The US need more affordable multi-role ballistic missiles which may be used both offensively and/or defensively. While THAAD ER may offer some unique advantages, emerging area denial systems will be able to counter ballistic counter-measures in time.. yet a holistic approach must be taken to effectively overwhelm the aggressors ability to shoot down offensive strikes or effectively manage defensive capabilities. In today's world, the most credible event is a enemy with plenty, and the willingness to use and launch hundreds or thousands of rockets and/or missiles to overcome the American war machine. An affordable multirole ballistic missile capability may be able to answer for volume attack and more over serve as a force multiplier in the overall strategic battle plan.
Mount them on all aircraft carriers
Absolutely no. I was purely trying to explain the desperate victim who is preferably willing to die in order to break the order of destruction of the camp that is a factory of death. No camp = loss of execution and disposal of the bodies
Look on Wikipedia under "why the allies declined to bomb the camps and what they knew.... Basically escapees notified the Polish underground brave people in my book
Build more
Mass raid response?? really???
i think like this
can THAAD be shoot down by enemy SAMs while it's trying to intercept enemy ballistic missiles. Russian S400/500 are technically similar if not superior than THAAD's 200km range.
LQc6VGMB2RHCexj4,
I rather doubt it since the location of the intended interception missiles would place them outside of their respective countries boundaries plus the slant range and catch up/overtake speed to reach the THAAD missile would have to be made at TREMENDOUS speed. Something that I doubt is a technical possibility at this time.
However, that doesn't preclude the use of a ground or air-based laser weapon designed to burn out the interceptor missile.
But then you still run into territorial issues, i.e., is the laser model in somebody else's back yard or within their sphere of military influence or, if airborne, will it (the laser) have the power to fire a laser beam with enough power, accuracy and speed to defeat the intended target?
But, long story short, I don't think your idea has much merit for the reasons (and more) I mentioned above. But then again I could be wrong. It's happened before. LOL
Can you block 7000 of its heading our ways? Each of ICBM can contain multiple warheads.
Hung Nguyen hi there well considering the U.S. And Russia have about 1600 warheads each
And China has around 240. We won't have to worry about 7000
Hung Nguyen yes
And blocking ICBM is not the main job for THAAD, If China dare to Lunch any ICBM to any US soil. China will become history, you seems forgot who won the cold war.
Make a better version
BENADRYL 😤😤😤😤 🤫
WE DO NOT THINK OFF SUCH PEOPLE .
Call of duty briefing.
what about the faliure rate?
As Far as I know the baseline THAAD today is 100% success rate
ill take 3
Pretty cool what tax money can do
Like moon landing for cause.
THAAD works by homing on the Installed beacon in the Target. This achieves a staggering 30% kill rate. Outstanding in an F-35 Quality Manufacturing environment in the USA.
Ракета США лучше.

Russian jamming is a problem especially with the krasukha 4 activly jamming allied assets with great success. This system has been vulnerabile to jamming from the beggining.
breakingdefense.com/2015/08/us-wargame-pits-army-missile-defenses-against-russian-jamming/
Why was this system has been vulnerable for jamming?
Lockheed Martin vs. Boing
🇷🇺☢️💣🇺🇸😂
THAAD better then Israel Irom Dome or the same?
Israel has THAAD to.
Oh? They have that Iron Dome system and now they got THAAD? So I guess its double protection for them.
ualuuanie no no no it's the same thing :P
Oh I see another name for Iron Dome is THAAD? Thanks for clearing that up :)
dude THAAD and Patriate missile system in Israel.
Реклама чистой воды. Эта система бесполезна против современных МБР при контрсиловом массированном ударе.
Put an emp device in it and some titanium dioxide tungsten depleted uranium kitchen ware with order in the next 5 minutes
Топол-М Have a smart head parts. This stuff from video is fail. Булава и Воевода next level missiles.
Your are a delusional dreamer, go back to your backwards, paranoid shithole of a country and stay hungry.
@@ohcliffy, it's not a smart. All world mast will live in peace.
Very amazing the world of American battle with the enemy North Korea
Hope all that is true.
'
oh nooo...
that is a bad video from the lousy computer edit videomaker...
keep up american THAAD missiles / THAAD ER missiles stronger arms weapons
its cool, but China & Russia already have anti-missile missile systems
& so U.S is working on an anti-missile missile missile system called the ANTI-3M system
You liar Lockheed! Nonsense!! You should know just a man yorself!!!
Not impressed since Lockheed Martin develop this. Just look at the F-35.
Then China shouldn't scare the shit out of it.
If F-35 is bad, then which place should take the JSF place? That ugly big fat X-32?
Lockheed's just the prime contractor. It's the subcontractors that make or break this. The ones that design/build these are not the same that make planes.
Sure, the F-35 had its share of problems early on, but now, 180 of the air-craft has been produced, and currently priced at $95 m each, and should continued to further get cheaper in the future. ✈️
thanks bradley we know your extensive knowledge about the f-35 and its capabilities. idiot.
Archangel Michael missile defense system by Lockheed Martin we’re gonna need anti-drones and not 7.62 x 51 mm NATO Gatling guns we’re gonna need something with 150 missiles per pod 10 pounds per region 30 regions covered NSA notice I’m working with you here let’s just say I know the Russians well my biological father is in my biological mother American and I’m staying safe in America
