Best military channel on CZcams!! Keep it up man
so true, since i discovered it few weeks ago, ive watched dozens and dozens of his videos such a great detailed and unbiased work.
I used to work on one!. USS West Virginia SSBN 736 Gold. I was a cook. Best food in the Navy is on their Submarines, not kidding. Learned so much. Proud to be one of the few qualified submariners out there.
It seems like a not important job, but it is important to morale. I have seen on youtube the kitchen is so cramped beyond belief ;) Personally, I don't know if I would want to serve on a submarine, maybe if I had access to proper, nuclear subs like in the US?
What subs does your country have?
Thank you for the Pizza Nights... Been there done that. EDMC here ,yeah my nukes appreciate it. Morale is made and nurtured on the mess decks and of course a great command.
Let’s hope their missiles never will be needed to be fired.
Nope. Let's hope that our missiles will never needed to be fired.... they are a deterent.
@Archangel Migel Have you ever heard of the term "Mutually Assured Destruction", you warmongering piece of shit?
@Archangel Migel they also have ssbns
Archangel Migel wow you don’t sound insane at all
Scary to think how these boats are currently on patrol all across the globe
and the fact there has been several incidents of them actually bumping into each other while playing a game of nuclear hide and seek
I was just thinking the same thing!!
there you go a nother white night
I find it actually quite comforting that they're out there.
Yup, That's why we build them, for patrol & protection.
Covert Cabal i love how you keep your videos apoltical and overall objective. There are a couple of military tech channels out there that have turned into propaganda mouthpieces. What a shame!
Yeah! Fuck that republican and democrat shit
Thinking of the level of engineering it takes to fit a nuclear reactor onto a submarine hurts my brain
Nuclear reactors aren’t that big. 1 fuel pellet of uranium, about the size of a fingertip contains as much energy as 1,780 lbs of coal!
hfdydxydxy nope! I’m dead serious. Same reason why a nuclear bomb the size of a car could destroy most of a city.
@@tibtroopin you're forgetting all the systems that make up a nuclear reactor, it's not just the fuel
Space Dohonkey it’s definitely cramped in there but it isn’t much larger than a standard propulsion system. It may be smaller even because of the high heat flux.
@@tibtroopin could you give me an equivalence to the size so I can get an idea of what size you think they are, for example 'the same size as a car'
Man the video of Russian submarine launching a salvo of 4 bulava SLBMs is awesome.
kentucky fried I hate that thumbnail
@@willandrews9741 Me too
+KF nice trick with the thumbnail😏, when I saw I thought a hair fell on my phone, tried to wipe it but wouldn't go, then I looked closely😳
@@blue280485 just switch to nightmode and you'll see through this shit.
You got me with your comment symbol looking like an eye lashe on my phone screen.
The best thing about this channel unbiased level headed opinion. Making it one of my go to channels. Thanks for your efforts covert cabal
Thank you! That's what I aim for!
Just discovered your channel and a few other military youtube channels a few days ago. You are the only one that earned my subscription, your presentation is so informative, slick, and free of BS clickbait. hope to see this grow!
Agree with Chris N. No hyperbolic language ("worst nightmare and so on..), no stereotyping but in elaborate analysis and explanation. Great work.
Well done sir! This is beyond a doubt the best military channel on CZcams!
So I went to the website you mentioned in the description. I tuned into one of the frequencies you provided and heard a EAM being issued. Very cool
Man you have the most detailed military channel. Army should hire YOU
Yo, thanks for another great video 👍
I can not agree more with the man's assertion that SSBNs are the most important component of the Nuclear Triad (bombers, hardened missile silos & SSBNs)! I dare say that the other 2 are kept in operation purely to increase the amount of targets an aggressor state would have to neutralize. If we kept only the subs, then all resources of the enemy could be used towards attacking the subs, command and control, and population centers. Now just because I say the SSBNs are the most important part of the Nuclear Triad does not diminish the strategic importance of Attack Subs (Hunter/Killers). Quite the opposite, as the capability of a single SSBN illustrates just how important the mission of the Attack Sub's commander is in locating, relaying the position of, and if ordered, neutralizing an enemy Ballistic sub.
Pete Rhein Great point. An enemy could devote all peacetime defense resources to wiping out SSBNs. Then on first day of battle, the nuclear counter strike by planes and missiles isn’t there.
4:14 min. I‘m a genius and did decipher the message. It says: do not shoot your 150 nuclear warheads.
@Drew Peacock I think you are right, there would be no time for planning a retaliatory strike assuming the other side has already launched their missiles. Subs probably practice launch regularly. Not only targets but the scenarios are also predetermined. I think there are send orders what captain should do when the entire country is destroyed, for example, join the allied forces.
I like the commitment. You have to really know the subject of war and weapons systems to make such a bold statement.
Great video. I was so sure this would be a synthesized voice and was so happy to wrong.
Great video. Keep up the good work.
The most deadly. After McDonald's.
Max Venediktov lol
Max Venediktov nice comment McDonald’s really does kill people just like a ballistic missile would
I never saw anyone explode after eating at Mc Donalds
I have.
mabatommy look in the mirror
6:15 Wow I didn't know that the subs follow eachother discretely in peacetime, that's insane, it's almost as though the subs do 90% of what they would do in wartime in peacetime with the cat and mouse stuff and the main difference is no launching of the torpedoes on the enemy.
The best way to practice keeping up with enemy subs and sneaking past surface ships is to do so. Even at times when the US and USSR were having good relations, submarine operations deep within Soviet territorial waters never stopped, and we still haven't stopped trailing every Russian SSBN we can. I wouldn't doubt we trail friendly submarines if we can get away with it, and they do (or attempt to do) the same.
MillionFoul there are far too many Russian and Chinese submarines to follow for the USA to be wasting time following friendlies.
Kuro Usagi were at peacetime and we aren’t in a Cold War we definitely tag friendlies sometimes
@@keith5524 whats a freindly sub
@@kurousagi8155 They do follow friendlies for practice.
The last scene is pretty scary! I imagine that if the world was to ever come to an end, it will look like that with many missiles coming out of the ocean... 😥
Excellent work as always.
Thank you for another video!
I've watched every video but somehow forgot to like them, so im rewatching all of them again....not even mad.
That's alright with me! lol
Thanks for watching!
Very nice content I must say. Thank you
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Great video dude - thanks :P
Covert Cabal, Thanks for the video I've been waiting. Could you someday go into more detail of the submarine launch missile technology from the major operators for example the US D5 Trident or the Russian BULAVA series, perhaps breaking it up into separate videos for each if you like. Thanks from an old sailor.
Recently met someone that works aboard the USS Nebraska in a civil air patrol meeting and it was pretty cool
Good video man!
Best military channel
One of the best military channels keep em coming
You don't order artists what to do.
Awesome video!
Cool video ! Good info plus no computer generated voice. !
really good review, I agree, during a war the subs will be the one that cause the most damage.
"Sinpo class boat" sounds so cool to say for some reason haha.
Has the latest & info!! AGAIN, KEEP IT UP!!!
Sub: You're already nuked.
Target: Nani !?
Baka ... they been nuked ages ago.
Onii chan is such a weeb.
Another great video ..
People have no idea how close we’ve come on multiple occasions...and not just the publicized stories.
Attention all stations, this is *Yung Boiiii*
I am not sure the younger generations have any concept of the lethality that these subs can give . It is a Cultural touchstone for us living through the Cold War, living with the Bomb influenced every thing, the Nuclear saber rattling in the Korean War , Fail Safe (book and Movie), “On The Beach”, atmospheric testing of Mega Ton bombs, losses described in Mega Deaths, the Cuban Missile nail biter and in the end some awesome Gallows Humor with “Doctor Strangelove “ . A lifetime of starring at the abyss.
"footage of exercises, no actual combat"...LOL if there IS an actual combat, we probably wouldn't be able to talk here.
Nice video
Nice to know we have these Subs, hope they never have to be used.
the fact that these things can pop up to launch depth and unleash nukes anywhere and disappear makes them deadly as hell.
one of the reasons I feel there hasn't been another big war .
mutually assured destruction.
Sorry, you are wrong. The BIG ONE is coming soon.

I feel like such an insider watching this channel lol
Dude I went to the radio site and I swear it's cursed
This.... The Ultimate modern battleships are underwater
Damn! These things scary.
Réal cool Channel ✊
Thats a scary sight seeing those missiles streak accross the sky.like the day after tomorow movie
I’ve seen a Trident in real life where that are made. Scary looking
You should watch the movie The Walf's Call. It tells the process to launch a nuclear missiles from a French SSBN.
after playing defcon a few times, i can comfirm this
Great work man. The US is building the Columbia class soon. I would love to see more videos of Russias new krasnador also
Wdym by krasnador? The new Russian SSBN is the Borei class
@@edbrook7088 Yes Borei correct. The new Belgorod is amazing too
Hypersonic ballistic missiles aboard a sub is a scary prospect
Never use the word "Ever" along with a superlative in the same sentence. Weaponry is ALWAYS subject to change with improvements.
What is a superlative?
@@sublimefermion2205 Google is your friend you know. Superlative means of the highest degree there is, none higher. So, when he says "most deadly weapon ever" suggests that none is higher or deadlier than that, nothing can surpass it now or at anytime in the future which is false.
@@sublimefermion2205 yes, same.
The new Columbia class should be one hell of a submarine.
Hope they test every individual component.
Instead of the last ship the last submarine......lol......
I think the Subs would technically be the most deadly weapons *platform* where the nuclear warheads atop the ICBM weapons delivery systems said subs would launch would be the most deadly weapon. Probably just splitting hairs though...
Which is the current most silent or stealthy submarine? And which one is the future? How do they achieve stealth and silence? Topic for video :)
Easy. Our diesel Perishers have not been detected by any navy on this planet for over 7+ decades now.
Go Walrus. ;-)
Most advanced submarine in the world will be launched in 2025 if it sticks to the plan.
The Gotland famously went undeteced as well slaying US carriers with ease.
Next best submarine will be the Ram and Walrus making babies.
Funny. I gave a clear simple answer to both questions.
Ofcourse Snowden did have data and? Yes posted it publically. Many have done that before.
Now the fact I stated will stand to the Burden of Proof and people can easily fact check this.
My class has not been detected by any navy for over 70 years. Not ever. ;-) Simple.
The Virgina class has been detected again and again and again. Very easy to detect.
You a armchair admiral maybe? Exercises mean nothing? Then what are they for? lol!
Oh beside never being detected over 7+ decades? We have a 100% hit ratio against CSGs and CBGs and even bigger fleets then that. We have never missed. You could try 2 CBGs ofcourse. We'd still win remember?
Yes US 'exercises' are scripted so they always win. NATO exercises ofcourse the gloves come off. Full capabilities are used and everything goes. Sonar is pretty WWII really. Most modern subs have moved way beyond that these days.
Tell the USN to field all 3 operational carriers next time? We can sink them all.
Michel Platteeuw The fact you gave a clear answer shows how little you know.
Yes your usual statement.
Can't fight the stated fact.
The Ram and Walrus baby will be the most advanced submarine ever.
Go ahead and tell us what drive it will have? You do know or ... Oh wait no never a answer from you cos you don;t know a thing. ;-)
Michel Platteeuw I don't think you have a design yet, so how would you know the drive? A future submarine is one you can know the least about with any certainty.
Imagine transmission based on quantum entanglement.
Where’s the link for the EAM transmissions? I didn’t see it in the description.
Sorry, I forgot to add it. Just updated the description to include the link, long with frequencies to listen on.
When they launched it, very easy to detect... they need to run as fast as possible
This is ever scary actually
GRIM REAPER English?
*Indian Navy* has 15 submarines in total and 2 more to join in this year. *Indian Navy* has 2 nuclear submarines- INS Chakra and INS Arihant. *INS CHAKRA* is on a 10 years lease from Russia and is an attack submarine. INS Arihant is built in India and can launch Nuclear tipped ballistic missiles from the ocean INS Arihant, was commissioned in August 2016. The first four vessels are expected to be commissioned by 2023. In December 2014, the work on a second nuclear reactor began and the second boat, INS Arighat is being prepared for sea trials.
Imagine firing these ballistic missiles from space
Just think about it: SSBN is nothing but cosmodrome and nuclear power plant combined capable of underwater movement. And at the beginning of 20th century we only had locomotives and slow-ass cars. Insane!
I'm glad it's not the Tsar boomba.
Watch out for those 40 caliber Sam’s
Plz make a video on Indian ballistic missile sub capabilities.The last I heard their only leased sub from Russia was docked for repairs due to accident that occurred onboard.
I now know why in some Hollywood movies they include the word "India" in the launch codes.
NATO phonetics.
why?
And I’m your biggest fan
You forgot Israel's dolphin class subs. They have 3 with 2 more believed to be on order.
those are not SSBN but SSG. their armaments are submarine launched "cruise missile"
@@zjpdarkblaze It's widely known that Israel has nuclear weapons. It's fair to assume that some nuclear warheads are used in submarine-launched missiles. But they're not _ballistic_ missiles.
@@mytube001 Yes i know that is why i said they are cruise missiles.
Did you interview any submariners for this?
Totally agree . As the second largest navy , we have 2 carriers , 33 destroyers ( 055 destroyer ftw !) ! 55 frigates , 60 patrol subs , but only 10 subs were nuclear powered . Also , only 5 were npbm sub , compare 40 subs in Russia and all 72 sub are np in USA , PLA navy need to built more NPBM submarine.
*Coastal Navy. Yours isn't a "Blue Water" navy by any stretch of the imagination.
@@neilgriffiths6427 a blue water navy with all 6 destroyers which cant cruise?
@@neilgriffiths6427 so that you can take those destroyers
豬白皮 - Clearly, you have a lot more rubber ducks than us. Careful with the bath salts...
@@neilgriffiths6427 thx for reminding , but be careful on russia first
TOOOOP!
154?! holy shit....
Submarines are the snipers of the Sea.
not only are they the deadliest weapons delivery platforms, they're also the US guarentee for a retaliatory strike even if our air force bomber bases and ICBMs have all been destroyed. and we have 14 of them still, so if you take the number of SLBMs on each submarine (24) and each missile carries 10 warheads (totalling 240 warheads per submarine) that works out to about 3360 warheads. and keep in mind each warhead has a yield of 350 kilotons each. all of that firepower + the ability to remain hidden and hard to find, yeah you have a lethal deterrent
Not to be that guy, but technically it's a weapons platform, not a weapons system
Well do not be the Greek or Italian submarine commander then? Ramming speed!
Eh you could full of it there. It seems pretty system like.
@Bob, what country are from that doesnt adhere to USN hulll classification and designation?
Not one weaponsystem in the active fleet list. Not NATO, China or Russia either.
The Nuclear Ballistic Missile Submarine (SSBN) is classified by the United States Navy and just about every other formidable nation in the world as a weapons platform. A weapons system is something like Aegis, or the targeting and firing systems and computers used to launch the actual missile. Doing a simple google search of the definition of a weapons platform would have proved you wrong before you even bothered commenting and saved you from looking like the dumb ass who can't even do the slightest amount of research before stating their opinion and assuming it's factual. Quit being that dumb ass, Bob.
its fucking semantics, you can view a sub as a weapon and there is no real problem with that, the weapons that the sub carry can't be as deterrent and powerful without the sub
Why is SSK = Submerged Ship Konventional NOT SSC = Submerged Ship Conventional?
SSK - Conventional Submarine (Conventional Attack Submarine)
The letter designations are pretty bad overall. They make little sense. Your average ten-year-old could come up with a more consistent and logical set of letter designations.
Very scary stuff
Best music
Just when you thought it couldn’t be any worse...
“Hey, you know ballistic missiles? What if we put them on a submarine so they would be a pain in the ass to find.”
“...fuck”
EAMS are much more encrypted than that, you would never be able to make out words, if you were even able to pick up the frequency, without getting myself in trouble subs don’t need to surface to receive them either.
That's all well and good, but can you tell me why so many knights are facing snails in medeival paintings?
There used to be a species of giant snail in Europe.
It's the most feared weapon the most deadly is foot soilders
This weapon system is designed to save foot soldiers lives.
The original Death Star!
NUK'EM DANNO ('til they glow green)
US was the first to launch nuke missile "the polaris" on a submerged submarine in 1960.
whats patreon!?
Make a video abt strategic relationships in future between India and USA
How about the status 6, that is a ballistic torpedo, and a submarine.
USA deploys three aircraft carrier battlegroups to a global crisis hotspot, 40+ ships, the media goes absolutely mad. Other world militaries: *shrug*.
Other world militaries catch wind that an Ohio class SSBN has left port: *shit just got real*
Only if it was an unscheduled deployment. But to TRULY mean business, you send out all of them that can get under-weigh

MrRacer1029 why
The last thing you never see
This sounds like a recipe for a slight mistake that could lead to war.
Imagine if instead of the British and French sub it was say a Chinese and US and just before impact one of them manages to detect and sink the other. Hmmmm I would love to be in Bhutan or New Zealand when that happens
LineOfCars thank you
your not welcome in New Zealand.
The current Chinese subs are noisy though. They would probably be detected before impact.
