Your frustration is so palpable and so relatable. I can't tell you how satisying it is to see field experts shut down this level of blatant, willful ignorance.
I like Bill Waterson's take in Calvin and Hobbes -- "Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us."
We as a species sadly probably won't be ready to truly contact intelligent life in the galaxy until we can safely leave our planet without having doubts about if you can come back home to anything but a radioactive wasteland
Because some of us are just smarter than everyone else and can do their job better than them. The difference between me and numbnuts dude that HLC just ripped is that he THINKS he's smart, while I KNOW I'm the smartest man alive and I still don't know shit lol
@@namantherockstar make worthwhile content, you earned it. I'll take a look, but be prepared for the same ruthless criticism all creators get. In other news, i think all the idiotic pro-russians in all this crap indirectly inflate russians incompetent ego which sets them up for ANOTHER fail against patriot.
As someone who was in the military, we appreciate the acronym breakdowns too. There are just toooooo fucking many and some of us aren't super smart, a lot of them overlap, so it helps, which defeats the purpose of an acronym, but still we appreciate it. lol
Heh. When I was in the USAF fifty years ago we were still snickering over the original acronym for traveling wave tubes. If you know, you know. If you don’t, ask me and I’ll tell you. I’m honestly kinda surprised to hear that any first world country has ground targeting missiles that can’t map. That tech is also fifty years old in its first incarnations. Hell, if it had been built Project Pluto would have had to have that capability while operating at dull red heat, no less.
I feel you. Having been a Navy Nuke for 10 years and then having people tell me why nuclear power is inherently dangerous was a special kind of frustrating. We take 20 year old college drop outs and teach them how to safely operate and maintain nuclear reactors that are using 20+ year old "cutting edge" technology. But yes, tell me how highly paid professionals are unable to safely operate a modern nuclear power grid.
I mean there are inherent risks involved, as with everything, but "inherently dangerous"? The by far safest form of electricity production we've ever had? There have probably been more deaths from people falling off of wind turbines than all nuclear power caused deaths total. =/
My dad and sister are both Nukes. Watching politicians fearmonger about radiation, drive the cost of nuclear into the stratosphere with pointlessly redundant safety (Yes, children, there is such a thing as too much safety), then point and say "See, nuclear is Too Expensive, that's why we need wind and solar" (while, of course, pocketing the kickbacks from "green energy") never fails to get entertaining reactions.
I was a 25Q in the army. Worked with grunts depending on the training exercise. Some were interested in what I did and could understand what I told them. Others were Neanderthal like and only understood point and shoot. Those guys still understood that if you knew next to nothing on systems you didn't say shit. You said this guy knows he'll inform you better. I taught them what I did they taught me how to disassemble and reassemble a M2 faster than I thought possible
91F, Small Arms Repair here, just wanted to agree, That M2 is impressively simple! When we were in training, our teacher, an old retired Italian born 1SG, said; "Privates, by the time you're done in this class, you'rea gonna know how'ta disassemble this weapon, in the dark, with your feet. You'll be able to look at this weapon and yell 'Transform!" And as he said "Transform," that went from an assembled M2 to a mess of parts on the table, "And do dat." Still makes me laugh thinking of that and wanted to share. xD
I'm wondering if he's stolen valor. His shabby facial hair and double-chin combined with his attitude makes me think he's never even served. I know quite a few vets who are overweight and disheveled because of PTSD and alcohol, but they aren't arrogant. They're broken. They're like the opposite of this guy. This is a guy that's never even been slapped in a school argument before, let alone seen boot camp, let alone had rounds crack above him, let alone seen his friends perish.
@manictiger or a "veteran" who failed basic but still acts like he served. Im a firm believer if you don't make it to your first real unit at least you haven't served. Volunteered to yes. But didn't truly serve. I've been out 7 years and let myself go a bit. Only reason you know I served is if you ask or if you see my plaques on my wall at home
@@Talon--B29555 But I bet you don't have that soft look. There's just something different about vets. They don't look or act like that guy. He looks like he's never left his mother's basement and he can tell you every single thing about Katanas and the folklore of Japan, a country he's never set foot in.
I've never served but my dad did, and yeah no even though he let himself go a bit it's not hard to tell the man served. There's a certain look to it I don't know how to describe other than he just seems ready for anything. This guy has none of that, he looks like he's never left the fucking basement before
He states he has "no understanding of missile defence" then proceeds to explain why it's all a lie. LMFAO. HBL you handled that better than I could've well done
I was just a lowly Combat Engineer, I dealt with infantry stuff, simple explosives, and bridges. I understood what the MICLIC did and how it did it. Could make claymores out of C4, Csplints, and ball bearings. Improvised bangalores and all manner of fun bits. But uh... Don't ask me how a radio works. Or missiles. Or guidance systems. Or radar. This is honestly one of the reasons why we clash with MPs so often. Staying in your lane is important.
As a doctor I am perfectly comfortable saying. A brain surgeon probably couldn't operate patriot. We frequently joke that, "Thank god it is brain surgery." Some of them cant even learn that they should eat at regular intervals. Expertise does not transfer a specialist is a specialist. That being said I wouldn't attempt to teach brain surgery or air defense. But if you need to examine a body and determine cause of death. Drop me a line.
@@PeterJavi depends on the surgery. It can be as simple as an appendectomy or as complex as a kidney pancreas transplant. There are many brain surgeries. I mean a lobotomy is so simple you can perform it with an icepick from outside the skull.
There's been quite a bit of drama lately among thr war nerd community. As a Canadian myself, I'd like to reassure you that there are times when it's okay to stop saying sorry.
youre talking about lazorpig and the t14 drama arnt you? lets just pray he doesnt pull that stunt when it comes to AD assets, cause i feel HLC wont be as polite as Chieftan, Cone, or Red were
@@bigshow196the others don't have any proper evidence to back up there claims so should have stayed quite till they had a some more solid evidence for there case. The chieftain is pretty solid and a good youtuber, who also has a real understanding about armoured warfare in general that's valuable but cone and red effect have always seemed like only partially competent stogies for mostly Russian propaganda hence the but hurt in there videos. Unlike cone and red, but much more like the chieftain HLC actually knows his shit on his subject. He also wouldn't make reds error of Siting Putin's propaganda, as he knows his air defence. He's like Perunes less pc air defence cousin.
As a former air defender (14T) my favorite Patriot story is how we learned that Patriot could hit cruise missiles. The story as told to me in training was that during the Gulf one of our Patriot batteries was left on its automated mode and hit one of our Tomahawks, entirely on its own. Suddenly Raytheon was adding can hit cruise missiles to Patriot sales info.
I'm not sure "we can accidentally shoot down our own expensive missiles" works as an add campaign so hopefully they taught it not to shoot the good missiles down first.
@@OneBiasedOpinionJust like how Ukrainians are having Patriot and other weapon systems do things nobody else thought possible. It's impressive the kinds of crazy shit people come up with when fighting for the survival of their homeland.
"I have no knowledge or experience about this thing in particular but you should listen to what I have to say because I'm basically an expert on it." Imagine having the hubris, the audacity, to argue against an actual expert about Patriot. HLC is so specialized, so experienced, so knowledgeable that he TEACHES OTHER PEOPLE on how to be experts. He's not just an expert, he's literally a master of the Patriot. That guy is about as knowledgeable about Patriot as a squirrel is about the water cycle.
It's not the 11s that are the problems. It's the 13s. I've found artillery to be the most idiotic ones out there who will be the biggest and brightest example of the Dunning-Krueger effect.
As a civilian with limited knowledge on this type of stuff, you are by far my favorite follow of the year. Came for the memes, staying for the education (and the memes)
His comment on 'hit a Patriot Rocket Pad' also made me think. So a blast deflector got damaged? The tarmac took a hit? Oh no. Patriot exhaust goes a little further now without a blast deflector. What ever shall we do. Either that or he's picturing Patriots in a gantry, Space Shuttle style, just sitting on their tailfins and waiting to launch from a pad, which is equally hilarious given that Patriot missiles boxes are visually iconic ever since Desert Storm, and you can see them depicted everywhere from movies to freaking Command and Conquer.
To the Air Defenseman from a former grunt, that loud mouth is an embarrassment to other grunts! We know what WE know and trust other service members to know their work so it all works right together. Even I ignore guys like him! After 22 plus years in war and peace, active and reserves I know better than to pass myself off as someone I am not.
In this I fully agree. I also was a grunt for 10 years (0311), and never heard somebody talking so ignorantly. Even more so as I actually became a Launcher Dog later in my career (14T) and got to see even more. But every unit has those that claim to be experts in everything and will go on about it endlessly. I think we found the guy that was like that in his unit. And I was hardly alone, I knew at least two 0311s and a slew of 11B that moved to PATRIOT.
I’m assuming that guy’s “I used to be a grunt” means the grunt his mom made by while birthing him. Also, I’m detecting the slightest whiff of stolen valor from that guy.
I’m so glad I found this man. I forgot his rank I heard you’re a Chief now. But I’m currently an Air Defender myself and I damn near had an aneurysm listening to that guy. For situational awareness I’m a TCA (tactical control assistant) wish you could’ve been in AIT when I was there lol woulda been great haha
Like you, I am a man of facts. Your military experience and education in your career field is exceptional , your humorous take on world events has left me in tear from laughing so hard. However, no amount of patient education by you can change the mind of someone who chooses to remain ignorant and closed minded. I do applaud you on trying to educated this person ONCE again, you have infinitely more patience than I do when it comes to people like him. Keep up the amazing work.
I couldn't do this video.....I wouldn't be able to put ANY of it online. I'm not military at all, and THAT is exactly why I love this channel!!!!!! You teach me so much about no only our air defense systems, but just history of our military and other things!
It's a little like watching a flat earther getting taken to task by an astrophysicist. I'm glad there are well informed people like HLC in the armed services.
more like a flat earther denying the earth is round so hard they forget why they denied the earth its roundness in the first place but there in to deep and they are just too comfortable being absolutely wrong.
HLC sounds so "military" until he gets on to talking about Patriot, at which point he sounds more like some guy showing off his favourite warhammer models. It's 100% nerd interest and I love it.
Our personnel that operate any of our hella expensive fuck around and find outty gizmo-fuckits are the absolute best at what they do. I am a similar level Hostile Threat Reduction Specialist but when i think about the level of baseline talent they have to have to be a candidate for that training, is on a whole other level. Which is why ACTUAL Grunts gonna grunt so they can do the insane shit they do without having to worry about the other soon to be past tense grunts on the other end of their knowledge.
Former RO trainee, I've only seen a teardown this bad once before and fortunately for him he didn't have a knife hand in his face for this. Thanks for editing out the stuff you weren't allowed to say.
Love your content brother. I was prior service, 12 Bravo, combat engineer. We hated it when other mos's would go thru the cg and get explosives that they knew nothing about and ended up killing themselves. Brother I know exactly what you are feeling. Ignorance is a death zone.
remember when they wanted to make us "11E" and integrate us into infantry units because we were "just grunts that used explosives"? That was a fun time teaching infantry how LITTLE they knew about what a Sapper does.
Darwinism. In this age of algorithms and social media, seems like critical thinking is completely abandoned in favor of... A: that fuzzy feeling you get when you believe you're right, or at least positively acknowledged. B: being super speedy and getting information FAST FAST FAST. Maybe to some people the concept of being wrong brings bad feelings, so they do something to try to make it go away. I sometimes feel that way if I'm wrong about something. *"Being able to figure something out because you think you're smart enough to put the available pieces together is a good feeling".* That summarizes myself when I was young. Everything in quotes is right and wrong. Right in that you pat yourself on the back for believing in yourself. Wrong in that if you input garbage information, your output will also be garbage.
14:57 And that, right there, is the tagline. The Russians like to claim they can do things they can't. We like to claim we can't do things that we really can.
Patriot may not be an acronym but I can make one up for it; Picking Apart The Russian Incoming Obsolete Tech Love your vids man, I'm learning and laughing at the same time! 😂

Actually though it's humbling the amount of dedication and training you went through to be at the God like tier you've managed to obtain through hard work and dedication to your job. 2.

God if I could pick your brain about all the classified stuff you manage to not spill, my head would probably explode...

Thank you again for taking the time to create content. You make so many people laugh and the country is a better place with guys like you around. You farkin rock
I showed my brother (101st airborne 75th Ranger) this guy's video. He cracked up saying " I don't know details of the Patriot system, but this guy knows even less..." 🎉
As a former CBRN NCOIC in a Patriot Battery I can confirm that learning to use the Patriot system is not that difficult. I will say that I was not aware that we had PAC3 in Ukraine seeing as we "never" give out our best Patriot. Someone should inform him that the Patriot Launchers are actually set up inside a barrier system to protect the blast area. Also you can see how a Patriot system is properly deployed on Google Earth if you know what you are looking for. Oh and I'm still annoyed with Raytheon about that issue in 07, I almost got in trouble for insubordination in country for telling a Colonel off for asking me about it in a Starbucks.
I mean yea for our permanent emplacements in places like Korea we have barriers, but I know when my unit practiced deploying to our wartime site outside a different Korean airbase we didn't have barriers. For field deployment we simply relied on space between launchers and knowing we would pull all launcher crews back from the launchers if the system was engaging.
@@ronaldchaplin8094 you are correct, i apologize fixed position they are barricaded, when we were in country we were always fixed. Only time we weren't was in Garrison during Table 8 and Table 12 certs.

Hey, I’ve got to say this video has been a good introductory video on missile/air defense and the basics of how it works. I walked into this not knowing much about the actual workings of the PATRIOT System, and by the end of the video, I had at least a *small* understanding of how it works. Thank you for creating this educational video for all of us to enjoy.
I'm also a former infantryman, the difference between me and Johnny there, is I read. And I listen to people who have expertise in different areas. I'm not going to have a debate on economics with an economist, chances are, they know a shit-ton more about the subject than I do.
I have no knowledge of what you guys are talking about but I love seeing a professional who knows what they are talking about humble idiots. Beautifully done good sir.
As a civilian that loves your channel and what you did for our country, I’m glad you explain this the way you did. I know he got under your skin, but it was funny and educational to me. Thank you sir!!!
Love all your videos! Keep up the good work. I had no idea how missile defense works. Thank you for making it understandable to a total civilian like me.
My dear brother from the US, I love you a lot, but this "their, there, and they're" sh!t has got to stop, man. "Their job." 1. Their - possession 2. There - location 3 They're - they are.
I'm right there with you about ignorance. I've begun using a saying I came up with, "Stupidity, foolishness and ignorance are, in their effects, indistinguishable from corruption."
Was a 29Y later 31S Q7, Satellite communication systems repairer/ operator. I worked on the AN/GSC 52 SAMT. Love the tech talk, LOL. I am intimately familiar with waveguide, the "magic T" , TWT, and probably my favorite word ever: orthomode transducers . Love explaining that stuff and watching people's jaws drop.
Hilarious and educational, thank you. The phrase of the 2000, 2010s, and 2020s continues to be Dunning-Kruger. Everyone knows everything about everything, and no one is willing to admit they are wrong about anything. Smh
Gotta love it when a self admitted infantryman, who admits he knows NOTHING about air defense, then tries to disprove the air defense. The hubris amazes me! Good job calling him out, crushing his misinformation/idiocy/stupidity, and setting it all straight. Well done HBL!
I was a 13m A1 then retired as a MP, I love you guys. I never cared about anything you did, other than keep me alive! Thank you Brother, keep up the awesome work!
As a person that spent half his career as a 14E, it's hilarious watching one of the most educated people in my former field destroy idiots on the regular.
lesson of the day. dont mess with someone who is passionate about what they do. thanks hlc for sharing what you can. we all learn a lot from your videos. I thought it was fairly common knowledge that part of the patriot systems mission was ballistic missile defense. I guess some people still cant comprehend how math works. you dont have to be faster than the thing your shooting, you just have to be fast enough to intercept. i guess theres a lot of people that still dont understand, patriot is not chasing the ballistic missile. it is flying into/at it. projecting a flight path is easy for an object moving in a more or less straight line, or parabolic curve, no matter how fast its moving.
I was an infantryman, but I’m smart enough to understand there are a lot of things I don’t know. I was also a submarine reactor operator (4yrs Marines/8yrs Navy), so I’ve found I can learn pretty much whatever I set my mind to. Love your videos about air defense systems. I’ve learned a lot, but would love to learn more. Any suggestions on good books on the subject?
I as a disabled retired Aircrew Egress Systems Craftsman, I felt like this when Neil DeGrasse Tyson said that Maverick couldn't have survived a Mach 10 ejection at +100K feet. Hab, this was a glorious thrashing!
he is just a troll for attention edit: the radar is definitely more than 99m, there are a lot of expensive "parts". When you mentioned the TWT's i got all warm and fuzzy being a previous system maintainer. Also, you'd make my warrants proud by not saying the "radar can see" lol
The tard troll's counter arguments are as accurate as Russian missiles and Russian artillery. It's all over the place and around the place but never hit the actual target.

Hey HLC. I'm a civvie IT professional. I never got the chance to serve for mental health reasons, but I understand pride in your work, and I understand the frustration of ignorant people trying to talk as if they're experts in your field. Dunning-Kruger is a terrible plague. I appreciate all your education in these long-form videos, and I find myself making small connections about some parts of what you talk about due to my own expertise; there are transferable skills between the fields, after all. However, if anyone ever asked me about air defense, I would tell them to ask you. The only way to avoid becoming Dunning-Kruger myself is to admit my ignorance, and direct others to better sources of information. Seems the B11 Johnny Cage there didn't get the same message.
You can sue for anything. They are called frivolous lawsuits and Judges don’t like you wasting the court’s time and especially hates when you waste their time.
You can, but I mean, it wouldn't get far before the Judge laughs at you, tells you to fuck off and closes the case, effectively meaning you lost because of your own stupidity
"You can't call me out. The reason? I'm not wrong." Good lord. The moment someone says that, we go past reasonable suspicion and go straight to "yeah you're probably full of shit." It's fine to be wrong, hell it's fine to be salty about being wrong... but if you go so far as to say I'm not wrong because I say I'm not? You lose immediately.

But didn't truly serve. I've been out 7 years and let myself go a bit. Only reason you know I served is if you ask or if you see my plaques on my wall at home

He looks like he's never left his mother's basement and he can tell you every single thing about Katanas and the folklore of Japan, a country he's never set foot in.
I've never served but my dad did, and yeah no even though he let himself go a bit it's not hard to tell the man served. There's a certain look to it I don't know how to describe other than he just seems ready for anything. This guy has none of that, he looks like he's never left the fucking basement before
He states he has "no understanding of missile defence" then proceeds to explain why it's all a lie. LMFAO. HBL you handled that better than I could've well done
Ya, I would have gone straight for the low-hanging fruit: his looks. But hey, I'm a "haircut half-finished" kind of guy.
I was just a lowly Combat Engineer, I dealt with infantry stuff, simple explosives, and bridges. I understood what the MICLIC did and how it did it. Could make claymores out of C4, Csplints, and ball bearings. Improvised bangalores and all manner of fun bits. But uh... Don't ask me how a radio works. Or missiles. Or guidance systems. Or radar. This is honestly one of the reasons why we clash with MPs so often. Staying in your lane is important.
I mean, no one in any branch likes MPs except for other MPs lol
MPs just hate that Leonard Wood is Engineer Land instead of MP-Ville.
That and the fact that Engineer is an actual combat MOS 😂
As a doctor I am perfectly comfortable saying. A brain surgeon probably couldn't operate patriot. We frequently joke that, "Thank god it is brain surgery." Some of them cant even learn that they should eat at regular intervals. Expertise does not transfer a specialist is a specialist. That being said I wouldn't attempt to teach brain surgery or air defense. But if you need to examine a body and determine cause of death. Drop me a line.

The chieftain is pretty solid and a good youtuber, who also has a real understanding about armoured warfare in general that's valuable but cone and red effect have always seemed like only partially competent stogies for mostly Russian propaganda hence the but hurt in there videos.
Unlike cone and red, but much more like the chieftain HLC actually knows his shit on his subject. He also wouldn't make reds error of Siting Putin's propaganda, as he knows his air defence. He's like Perunes less pc air defence cousin.
As a former air defender (14T) my favorite Patriot story is how we learned that Patriot could hit cruise missiles. The story as told to me in training was that during the Gulf one of our Patriot batteries was left on its automated mode and hit one of our Tomahawks, entirely on its own. Suddenly Raytheon was adding can hit cruise missiles to Patriot sales info.
I'm not sure "we can accidentally shoot down our own expensive missiles" works as an add campaign so hopefully they taught it not to shoot the good missiles down first.
@jamesedwards6985 well yes there was a software update involved, I am sure.
"...can also down cruse missiles"
have you tested that?
"Wellll, not intentionally."
The few stories I’ve heard people tell about this system and its capabilities seem to involve a surprising amount of accidental discoveries!
@@OneBiasedOpinionJust like how Ukrainians are having Patriot and other weapon systems do things nobody else thought possible. It's impressive the kinds of crazy shit people come up with when fighting for the survival of their homeland.

He's not just an expert, he's literally a master of the Patriot. That guy is about as knowledgeable about Patriot as a squirrel is about the water cycle.

Agreed, as a fellow bang bang we don’t claim him
It's not the 11s that are the problems. It's the 13s. I've found artillery to be the most idiotic ones out there who will be the biggest and brightest example of the Dunning-Krueger effect.
'Facts don't care about your feelings.' Truer words have never been spoken.
As a civilian with limited knowledge on this type of stuff, you are by far my favorite follow of the year. Came for the memes, staying for the education (and the memes)
His comment on 'hit a Patriot Rocket Pad' also made me think. So a blast deflector got damaged? The tarmac took a hit? Oh no. Patriot exhaust goes a little further now without a blast deflector. What ever shall we do.
Either that or he's picturing Patriots in a gantry, Space Shuttle style, just sitting on their tailfins and waiting to launch from a pad, which is equally hilarious given that Patriot missiles boxes are visually iconic ever since Desert Storm, and you can see them depicted everywhere from movies to freaking Command and Conquer.
To the Air Defenseman from a former grunt, that loud mouth is an embarrassment to other grunts! We know what WE know and trust other service members to know their work so it all works right together.
Even I ignore guys like him! After 22 plus years in war and peace, active and reserves I know better than to pass myself off as someone I am not.
There's probably a reason why a young dude like whatshisface says "I USED to be a grunt"
@@ryanderenbecker8837 There probably is. But if you want to know it would be best to step up and ask.
Otherwise you probably will be ignored.
In this I fully agree. I also was a grunt for 10 years (0311), and never heard somebody talking so ignorantly. Even more so as I actually became a Launcher Dog later in my career (14T) and got to see even more.
But every unit has those that claim to be experts in everything and will go on about it endlessly. I think we found the guy that was like that in his unit.
And I was hardly alone, I knew at least two 0311s and a slew of 11B that moved to PATRIOT.
I’m assuming that guy’s “I used to be a grunt” means the grunt his mom made by while birthing him. Also, I’m detecting the slightest whiff of stolen valor from that guy.
@@robthaham3408 Good one.
I’m so glad I found this man. I forgot his rank I heard you’re a Chief now. But I’m currently an Air Defender myself and I damn near had an aneurysm listening to that guy.

Like you, I am a man of facts. Your military experience and education in your career field is exceptional , your humorous take on world events has left me in tear from laughing so hard. However, no amount of patient education by you can change the mind of someone who chooses to remain ignorant and closed minded. I do applaud you on trying to educated this person ONCE again, you have infinitely more patience than I do when it comes to people like him.

I couldn't do this video.....I wouldn't be able to put ANY of it online. I'm not military at all, and THAT is exactly why I love this channel!!!!!! You teach me so much about no only our air defense systems, but just history of our military and other things!
It's a little like watching a flat earther getting taken to task by an astrophysicist. I'm glad there are well informed people like HLC in the armed services.
more like a flat earther denying the earth is round so hard they forget why they denied the earth its roundness in the first place but there in to deep and they are just too comfortable being absolutely wrong.
I would think a real grunt would know when to shut up with something he doesn't understand this was beautiful to watch
@@tomtomb8522 Like that time flat-earthers did experiments and ended up proving that the earth is not flat
My personal favorite so far as watching miniminuteman (Milo Rossi) destroy Graham Hancock's whole fake pseudoscience archaeological series lol
Honestly if y'all haven't seen Milo Rossi he's really the habituallinecrosser of archaeology😂
HLC sounds so "military" until he gets on to talking about Patriot, at which point he sounds more like some guy showing off his favourite warhammer models.
It's 100% nerd interest and I love it.
Our personnel that operate any of our hella expensive fuck around and find outty gizmo-fuckits are the absolute best at what they do. I am a similar level Hostile Threat Reduction Specialist but when i think about the level of baseline talent they have to have to be a candidate for that training, is on a whole other level. Which is why ACTUAL Grunts gonna grunt so they can do the insane shit they do without having to worry about the other soon to be past tense grunts on the other end of their knowledge.

In this age of algorithms and social media, seems like critical thinking is completely abandoned in favor of...
A: that fuzzy feeling you get when you believe you're right, or at least positively acknowledged.
B: being super speedy and getting information FAST FAST FAST.
Maybe to some people the concept of being wrong brings bad feelings, so they do something to try to make it go away. I sometimes feel that way if I'm wrong about something.
*"Being able to figure something out because you think you're smart enough to put the available pieces together is a good feeling".* That summarizes myself when I was young.

I showed my brother (101st airborne 75th Ranger) this guy's video. He cracked up saying " I don't know details of the Patriot system, but this guy knows even less..." 🎉
As a former CBRN NCOIC in a Patriot Battery I can confirm that learning to use the Patriot system is not that difficult. I will say that I was not aware that we had PAC3 in Ukraine seeing as we "never" give out our best Patriot. Someone should inform him that the Patriot Launchers are actually set up inside a barrier system to protect the blast area. Also you can see how a Patriot system is properly deployed on Google Earth if you know what you are looking for. Oh and I'm still annoyed with Raytheon about that issue in 07, I almost got in trouble for insubordination in country for telling a Colonel off for asking me about it in a Starbucks.
I mean yea for our permanent emplacements in places like Korea we have barriers, but I know when my unit practiced deploying to our wartime site outside a different Korean airbase we didn't have barriers. For field deployment we simply relied on space between launchers and knowing we would pull all launcher crews back from the launchers if the system was engaging.

Thank you for creating this educational video for all of us to enjoy.

lesson of the day. dont mess with someone who is passionate about what they do. thanks hlc for sharing what you can. we all learn a lot from your videos. I thought it was fairly common knowledge that part of the patriot systems mission was ballistic missile defense. I guess some people still cant comprehend how math works. you dont have to be faster than the thing your shooting, you just have to be fast enough to intercept. i guess theres a lot of people that still dont understand, patriot is not chasing the ballistic missile. it is flying into/at it. projecting a flight path is easy for an object moving in a more or less straight line, or parabolic curve, no matter how fast its moving.
I was an infantryman, but I’m smart enough to understand there are a lot of things I don’t know.
