How can you stop a Nuclear Missile?

- When I was growing up in England in the 1970’s and though the 1980’s in particular, there was an almost palpable fear that a nuclear exchange could break out between the superpowers at almost any time.

It caused me and many others around at the time to wonder was there a way to stop a missile attack but to be honest there was very little you could do. If you lived in a big city or near a military base, there was nothing to stop an ICBM or Intercontinental Ballistic missile once it was on its way and with the 4 minute warning we would have in the UK, you might as well have one last game of missile command and hope for a quick end.
Roll on 35+ years and although we now live in a time of where the threat from nuclear attack is much less, it’s still present, even if it may have moved to a different area of the globe.
So, with the advancement of technology, can we stop a missile attack now, once it’s been launched

-Me, watching this video in 2022: no we don't
Was about to comment the same. Hope the war will be over soon, and that there can be peace again.
yes we do.
Nothing really changed lmao. Leaders with inflated ego threatening with nuclear bombs has been a thing practically since they were invented. Its a purely psychological weapon.
@@EpicGamer-fl7fn also one that can be put to action since these leaders are a little delusional
@@nicewater894 baffles me how many fucking people still think that he just has a red button he can press at any time and suddenly all 6 thousand nukes will be deployed in less than 2 minutes. This isnt a movie dude. its a complicated procedure involving multiple people, not just the guy in charge. one person aborts the process and there, no nuke launch. And given the current situation thats what would pretty much happen.
@@EpicGamer-fl7fn Spot on mate. However, we are talking about Putin here. Hopefully, he hasn't checkmated the military commanders in charge of the nukes like he has with the rest of Russia.
"Okay you are allowed 10 warheads but no more okay? If I count 11 of those warheads heading towards me you are in trouble!"
in practice only 1 missile was ever designed to have more than 10 warheads, and that was a variant of the Soviet SS-18, aptly named "Satan" by NATO.
It was redesigned, adding additional decoys to its warhead bus to replace some of the warheads.
@@jwenting They call it a WMD for a reason lol
@@EuanWhitehead yes, weapon of mass distraction :)
The SS-18s 32 or so decoys really do provide a distraction from its 10 warheads...
@@jwentingA horrifying invention.
@@EuanWhitehead in its destructive power, yes.
But at the same time nuclear weapons have effectively prevented a world war for over 75 years now.
And of course the moment it's known something is possible, someone's going to do it, so 'banning nuclear weapons' isn't going to do any good. We effectively tried that already with the nuclear non-proliferation treaty, and at least 6 nations built nuclear weapons since, with several more suspected of having tried or planned to (Argentina, East Germany,Taiwan, and some think Japan and West Germany as well).

"push it somewhere else."- Patrick Star
Why don't we just push the nuke to somewhere else or play your mayo aside
I just realized something: if we had an amazing defense system that could kill the missile/warheads a significant percentage of the time, then we probably wouldn't know. It would be top secret until nukes _had_ to be used, so that we could stop the enemy's missiles (because they don't know we're capable of it), leaving our missiles to destroy them only. We have the incentive to not mention it.
There IS an incentive to mention it - knowing your strike would be way less effective than the counterstice would probably make aggression apear more costly, or else require a truly massive strike capability to overpower (maintaining which costs - a lot). Of course, this is mainly a factor for those powers whose aims are mostly defensive.
Did you know that the little green men , e.g aliens , are testing such a system at Roswell now?
@@michaireneuszjakubowski5289 If the capability is limited, mentioning it might be worth it to serve as a deterrent, as you say. A bluff of sorts. But if the system operated flawlessly, secrecy would be advantageous to ensure the enemy does not pre-emptively develop a work around. Appear strong when you are weak, appear weak when you are strong - Sun Tzu.
if there was something which could nullify the enemy attack completely, lets just say the enemy would not exist anymore...

barge in yeah but in order for it to work, he laser needs to be close to the launch site of the icbm, making more difficult as the laser could be shot down if on a aircraft by Sam launchers or other fixed wing aircraft
Very good explained. In a full scale atomic war there could be hundreds (!) of ICBMs with thousands of warheads - nothing could stop such an attack.
@Aussie Pom Nobody will survive long after nuke attacks. Will be a nuclear winter and everything will die soon after. Our faith are in the hands of few idiots who are ready do destroy everything just because they too much greed.
@@sobczak0712 If they plan on making bases on mars in the future. Surely some people could survive. You just need a "mars" base on earth. Or just live in a bunker with a big food storage, enough to last till it's possible to grow food again.
@Aussie Pom youd emerge into a wondferfully zany post apocalyptic world, like a Fallout game. fun!
@@sobczak0712 oh there would be pockets of humanity though.When the communications are cut, isolated pockets of people would survive.

Curious Droid" Roll on 35 years, and the threat of nuclear attack is much less"
2022 "Hold my uranium"
I was in elementary school in the 80's. The first time we had a "nuclear emergency drill". I asked my teacher "How is my desk going to stop a nuclear bomb?" She smiled and said "Sometimes you're too smart for your own good, just get under your table."
@@DW133_ Your desk won't save you from the radiation and blast effects from a nuke det., but desks will prevent a large amount of injuries from flying glass when the shockwaves finally make it to your location. Think lightning and thunder. The light comes first, followed by the sound waves. Think Chelyabinsk.
If you are close to ground zero its not going to help you, if your with in the blast radius within few miles depending on the size of the yield tou wouls need to have a sheild to protect against debris. Like a tornado
@@nunyabeeswax303 Obviously hiding under school desk isnt going to help you if you are within the blast radius as the building supporting your desk may be destroyed. At greater distances from ground zero where buildings will still stand, but may be damaged, hiding under a desk, in a closet, or in a hallway, away from windows, can and does protect from injury death from projectiles such as broken glass, branches etc. A little common sense could be applied here. People injured from flying projectiles from the Chelyabinsk meteor were 100's of kms away from the epicenter, most injuries were secondary blast effects from flying glass debris. There was in fact a teacher that saw the flash and quickly told her pupils to "duck and cover" saving many of them from injury as the resultant blast wave came minutes later and blew all the windows in. This was an approx. 430 kiloton explosion from a 10,000 tonne meteor.
What school's did this in late 80s? Duck and Cover was 50s and 60s most places.

"we now live in a time threat from nuclear attack is much less"; unfortunately it was true in 2017 but not anymore now in 2022
It's still true. The tensions between the West and Russia right now are not even close to Cold War levels.
@@GerstoxParty they are very close to cold war levels of tension. Better said, we are in a second cold war right now. NATO is moving troops towards the eastern NATO borders, russia is in alert and there is a war on european soil like there hasn't been the last 77 years.
This is much more serious than you believe
@@fuckinantipope5511 No, we aren't. During the Cold War we were very fucking close to launching nukes several times. We are not even near those levels of tensions yet
@@GerstoxParty do you even follow the news? Russia has it's nukes ready, germany is getting new air raft to deliver american nukes, we got an insane dictator at the top of the worlds biggest nuclear power, russia. And this nuclear power is waging war in europe to annex a part of the former USSR and with what Putin often said in the past, he probably won't stop with ukraine.
Is it as hot as the cuban missiles crisis? Probably not. Is it still a huge danger? Of course it is! Just pay attention to the things that are currently happening in the world
@@fuckinantipope5511 Russia putting it's nuclear forces on 'high alert' means absolutely nothing in practice. They're always on high alert. It's just a scare tactic.
And of course it's dangerous but saying it's anything like the cold war is ridiculous.
More relevant than ever.

Lots of puss-puss is not exactly a bad thing.... Ask Dave Allen - he could tell you.
I think people need to watch this again in 2022
The buzz of the "protect and survive" propaganda still sends chills to my spine.
Looking back it doesn't seem real anymore but we really did have the realistic fear that there could be a bright flash of light and that would be the end of everything.
I didn't know about them... then I watched Threads, and then I watched the Protect and Survive clips on youtube. Now that tone sends a chill down my spine too, and I was born in 1989.
reminds me of Neil from the Young Ones painting himself white to deflect the blast, only to be hassled by Rick for racism.
Oh man! Seeing those on the TV back then and then hearing those tones now... still gives me the shivers that we were briefed on what to do if a nuke exploded and how to survive. And that we believed that we could be killed at any moment in our normal lives and not feel a thing while dying or die a slow painful death due to radiation sickness. And that at any moment, if we saw a bright light in the day that wasn't there before, that it'd be the end of everything for us and our families.

Will it make it to the target?
SnipeAcat360 No.
But you grow a extra pair of organs for reserve.
from this video we learn that land to land systems are not that effective. but while space to land systems takes 20-30 min to reach the target as what man on video says. but for you holding it on space looks like the main problem there .
Just tell it No, it cannot legally strike you and/or your land without consent.
and if it doesnt obey, get the police involved and charge it for trespassing

Exactly what you want to be wearing in case the apocalypse starts tomorrow.
The M.A.D.-strategy has one weakness : What if your enemy does not care about being destroyed? For example, if your enemy is highly religious they might not care if they die, because they might believe that regardless whether they die or not, killing the enemy/unbelievers gives them rewards in heaven/paradise.
Stefan Hohnwald The solution is to eliminate them before they attack. Not that it will ever happen. Too many pussies worried about petty things like "genocide".

NICE PRESENTATION DROID !
Thanks for a quick guide
If it wasn't for the Nuclear Missiles ww3 would have happened years ago. Its the fear of a nuclear war that is keeping peace ironically.
Aldo Malaj yeah, personally I’m not too scared because if one country launches there missile then all others would too. Also even if a country takes out another, the radiation would eventually spread to other countries or there own.
speedy mountain,SEAsian countries are still safe from any fall-out ...
Anson In some cases it can. Transporting materials, food or people from a contaminated place to a safe place can be dangerous. Even animals used for food can be contaminated from the air or they're food.
Anson Zhao Certain types of radiation can be carried through the air currents. I’m not a scientist but I’m pretty sure it can.
Anson Zhao, look up "nuclear fallout" or search for information about the Fukushima nuclear disaster which resulted in untold millions of gallons of radioactive water being dumped into the Pacific Ocean. Just imagine how far ocean currents can move radioactive particles (eventually around the entire globe). Also consider ocean life like fish becoming irradiated, then caught by fisherman and eaten by the public.
There are many many ways for radiation to travel from one place to another.
“Think happy thoughts.” - Japanese official advising people how to avoid effects of Fukushima radiation.
there's more background radiation on my back porch than in the fukishima exclusion zone.
@djhavok101 the joke is that there isnt more radiation than normal levels but because of public fears millions if dollar's are being spent on a pointless cleanup effort.
LZ129 Brazil It IS diluted. It’s like taking a millionth of a dropper of arsenic and putting it in a lake. No fish will die. Nothing will even notice the addition, cause it’s instantly diluted into nothingness.
LZ129 Brazil Not sure why you had to stoop to insults. Cute though.
I was using an analogy, not making a claim about the direct vicinity of Fukushima. It was an analogy about the relative size of Fukushima’s radiation leak compared to the size of the ocean.
We’re clearly looking at and reading different sources. Time for me to start reading more research articles.
Ps. Consider NOT being a complete dick when talking about important topics. You can make a point without taking a shit on someone 👍🏻
@LZ129 Brazil kids literally walked up to the plant with a dosimeter, leaks less than a metal detector.
You tell the nuclear missile you don't consent.

I was looking for this comment! Lol
the multiple kill vehicle seems incredibly promising, we should really develop that technology
This technical video explains some extreme limitations: czcams.com/video/8DdrN3CKz90/video.html&ab_channel=AtomicTestsChannel
Summary and implications: If the attacker decides to detonate one of the nuclear bombs the others become undetectable because of visible, infrared, radar and radio interference. Perhaps the delicate sensors of the KKV (kinetic kill vehicle) get destroyed directly. Nuclear bombs however are quite able to survive the in-space-nuclear-explosion and continue through. So KKVs could never stop a serious ICBM attack, no matter how accurate, reliable or plentiful your KKVs are.
The KKVs are a complete waste of money. They are super expensive since they require extreme technology and constant readiness. They only have value if you actually will get attacked with ICBMs, but in that case they still cannot protect you.
Nuclear weapons do have value even if you don't use them, because they deter attackers.
Actually KKVs could be even worse than a complete waste of money: They may make the attacker think it could be all-right if they use nuclear weapons (since maybe they won't destroy the world, maybe they don't have to live with the guild, maybe the attacked country won't retaliate if they manage to destroy the ICBMs), making it less likely they refuse orders and do destroy the world.
Also, the KKVs are designed for use in vacuum. They will not stop bombs or missiles fired via airplanes, which also have a long range.
Not effective in real time attack as well as developing ICBMs are being made at super sonic speed now even at burning faze such as russias satan 2 that is impossible to intercept even with all these techs mentioned in the video you just cant stop a hypersonic missile even in earth not to mention on space also russia is now replacing it's old icbms with satan 2 so I think M.A.D is still and will be held for along time

FYI: That scene of Sprint missile at 7:58 isn't speed up, that's real. 0 to 7 kilometers per second (yeah second) in 4 seconds. You can see that the missile is glowing white hot in the next video and the first stage is just 'explode' on separation
Interesting, thanks for the note. I guess the text was slightly incorrect, then, because it says "Sprint ABM will be fitted with 20k tons warheads". But perhaps it's my understanding that's not complete on the matter.

Carlo - 20 k tons seems about right. That is not the weight but the equivialnt explosive power - how much TNT you would need for the same explosion.
And that is about the yield of the 2 atomic bombs used on Japan.
One of my cousins was present when they tested the Sprint. I asked him, Did they let you light the fuse?
@ABaumstumpf - Thanks :)

The best defense against a nuclear missile is to have MORE nuclear missiles.

You can... the problem is not to stop a nuclear Missile but ALL nuclear missiles....

Chuck PK you can’t STOP them - but you CAN put a brown paper bag over your head and lie down under a table...
Best thing to do immediately prior to a nuclear attack: put your head between your legs and kiss your arse goodbye 🤪
Simple, be on board your own missile headed in the opposite direction.
When the wind blows.......I was a child of the 80s living near Greenham Common and the Aldermaston Atomic Weapons Research Establishment..I still remember the fear of first strike. Crazy how it stays with you 40yrs later.
Great explanation
