    US military doctrine for the navy seems to make all ships as defensive shield for the carrier.

    • @neurofiedyamato8763
      @neurofiedyamato8763 Před 4 lety +15

      In open waters, the carrier is the longest reaching and most potent striking weapon of all, that's why. No other surface ship would stand a chance against a US carrier unless its another carrier or China somehow fit their carrier killer ballistic missile on to surface ships.

      Yes because the US relies on Air Superiority. Without the carrier, the US Navy and military is weakened significantly

      @neurofiedyamato8763 Před 4 lety +11

      Kirov doesn't disagree with me. A US carrier will sink the Kirov fairly easily. 40 F-18 with 2-4 harpoons each wil saturate the defenses on the Kirov while the 1200 km+ combat radius will ensure the carrier is out of Kirov's missile range, assuming Kirov even spots the carrier.
      The carrier would have a significant advantage in finding Kirov compared to Kirov finding it. The US carrier has several AWACS and helicopters for ocean surveillance. Kirov has its own radar(limited by radar horizon) and a few helicopters. A carrier is king in the open ocean, it's a different story along the coast though.
      TBH, the Queen Elizabeth and Liaoning would be able to sink the Kirov or any single surface combatant. The Liaoning with its 26 combat jets each carrying 2 missiles is too much for most ships to deal with. It's not just the US, any nation with a half decent carrier can.

      @@neurofiedyamato8763 In addition to the helicopter, Kirov will be helped the satellite constellation and target designation aircraft Tu-95RC.
      F-18 combat radius is not 1200km, but 720km.
      Russians have the best air defense systems in the world. On board Kirov are one hundred S300 missiles (S400 after modernization) and fifty Kinzhal missiles, not counting the short-range and electronic warfare systems. Kirov will withstand some raids of the Nimitz aviation group, will approach the distance of defeat and launch the hyper-speed Zircons that are being installed right now.
      But to be honest, I see no reason to use this box. This is an expensive legacy of the Soviet Union. With modern detection systems, it’s enough for the Russians to use strategic aviation, which will deliver and launch missiles outside the aircraft carrier’s cover zone.

    There's a great documentary on CZcams about the Falklands War with lots of first hand accounts from both sides. It's called "The Falklands War: The Untold Story" There was a section about the Sheffield with some really telling interviews with the seamen onboard.
    I remember the one guy was saying he initially saw ripples moving over the water and told the guy next to him he thought it was a torpedo. Then they realized it was an exocet missile, but he was transfixed on it and unable to move.
    The documentary gives you a feel for how brutal a war it really was. You tend not to think of The Falklands as being a particularly gruesome war because of how small and short lived it was. But people died and were seriously wounded just the same as any other war. It's easy to lose sight of the human aspect of it.

    the SM-6 is actually a very powerful anti-surface missile despite it original anti-air design. The missile itself weights about 1.5 ton and is able travel more than 370km. The terminal phase of SM-6 anti-ship variant travel at nearly Mach 4, almost twice of normal supersonic anti-ship missile, energy is the square of speed, twice the speed will give you 4 times the energy. SM-6 is also very hard to intercept because instead of sea-skimming, it flies a ballistic path, thus requiring defense ship having certain anti-ballistic ability to intercept.

    • @bigmike9128

    • @saturnv2419
      @saturnv2419 Před 6 lety +5

      Actually no. SM-6 used the active radar derived from AIM-120 which are designed to hit fast moving airplanes. SM-6 is able to intercept high speed sea-skimming missiles easily, so slow moving ships are even easier. SM-6 flies a ballistic path meant it can be guided by other air-born sensors(since earth is round), and by the conservation of energy, maintain much of its speed during terminal phrase since it flies at high altitude where air is thin. Essentially it is like a ballistic missile, just hitting ships.

    • @saturnv2419
      @saturnv2419 Před 6 lety +2

      First of all, no modern warship has armor thick enough to have missiles "bounce off", and things traveling at Mach 4 do not "bounce off" anything, the energy it carries is too huge. Not to mention even the most armored WW2 era battleship has most of its armor on the side, which does not help at all against missiles like SM-6 and Harpoons, which have terminal phase maneuvers designed to attack from the top instead of the side, and giving SM-6's unique trajectory, it actually is able to maneuver quicker since it has the most potential energy. Finally, depends on which type of ballistic missile you are referring to, the terminal phase velocity is between Mach 3(SRBM and Tactical Ballistic Missile like ATACMS) and Mach 25 (ICBM).

    • @saturnv2419
      @saturnv2419 Před 6 lety +3

      That is exactly where you are mistaken. SM-6 is very different from SM-2 series despite sharing the common name and similar structure, you could go to Wikipedia page of RIM-174 and it already have quite amount of information including the active radar part. SM-6 is originally design to intercept target below horizon, thus an active radar is a must.............
      For example a simple maneuver that SM-6 use to intercept low flying object is to use fins mounted on its tail, since unlike older versions of SM missiles, SM-6 has most air speed in terminal phase, making the fins more powerful in steering.
      Why comparing Harpoons? Because both Harpoon and SM-6 hit ships from above, causing the most damage to the ship itself.

    • @saturnv2419
      @saturnv2419 Před 6 lety +2

      We do not know if the anti-ship variant of SM-6 perform active evasive maneuvers or not, all we know is that SM-6 is capable of doing, and Carter had said anti-ship variant used a new software. Keep in mind even without evasive maneuvers, a object traveling at Mach 4 literally falling from the sky is not that easy to intercept either.
      As for the height part, supersonic missile with the exception of 3M-54, all flying in a much higher altitude than subsonic missiles as well. Kirov's P-700 for example, can only travel above Mach 2 at altitude greater than 25 meter, almost 5 times the cursing height of Harpoon and Tomahawk anti-ship variant. If you plug into the radar horizon equation, it meant they could be spotted 5^(1/2) times further away. So even though it may travel twice as fast as Harpoon, it is spotted more than twice as far as well. So this is really a trade-off, part of the reason why US Navy is not depending only on SM-6.
      As for the number part, this may surprise you. A typical Burke class will carry 19 SM-6, that is almost the same as Kirov's P-700(20 carried), and if focus on anti-surface warfare, the 96 VLS could be fitted with much more SM-6 missiles, partially because the anti-surface variant can also use against air target.

    Lot[s of misconceptions in this video: The US has proven air defense missiles even against latest russian sea ramjets - namely SM-6 missile has been used against simmilar mach 3 wave-riders. The same SM-6 has been used effectively in a anti-ship role. Which with given its speed and range is comparable to russian counterparts.

    • @MrCristianposso
      @MrCristianposso Před 6 lety +1

      The problem to use the SM-6 in anti ship role is that it flies a ballistic trayectory, making it way easier to shoot down that a 'wave-rider' of similar speed. Also the warhead is ridicously small and lacks penetration.

      The US is developing a supersonic, or possibly hypersonic, anti-ship missile. It's called Sea Dragon. Coming very soon.
      And it's not just about the missile, it's about the sensor system that's in place to find ships in the vastness of the ocean. The US has the best sensor system, partly because of it's large at sea air arm, but other assets as well.
      Surface ships and submarines firing at long ranges cannot detect the carrier, or other surface ships, themselves; they need to operate off data provided by other assets, which tends to increase the time and uncertainty associated with targeting decisions. The United States has spent, essentially, 30 years developing and working out a reconnaissance strike complex that includes multiple redundant systems of surveillance and communication, resulting in a kill chain that transfers information in real time from advanced sensor platforms (satellites, submarine listening posts, drones, patrol aircraft) through communications nodes (satellites, aircraft) to ships, planes, and submarines that can launch and guide missiles to targets.
      No other country has similar capabilities, even Russia and China.

    The Hs 293 and the Fritz X are 2 separate things, so "The Hs 293, better known as the Fritz X" is incorrect.
    The Fritz X is a radio controlled bomb with fins you drop directly above the target and steer onto it, whereas the Hs 293 is a radio controlled glide bomb with wings and a rocket motor you drop above and away from the target then glide it into it.
    Also the 6 day war was in 1967, not 1976.

    Funny story about developing these guys.
    For developing the P-15 Termit (NATO designation SS-N-2), the Soviet leadership ordered that the missile needed to have the "punch of a battleship." The engineers took this literally, and used the 320mm shell off of the Soviet battleship Novorossiysk for the warhead design.
    With 458kg of armor piercing explosive, the P-15 Termit has proven itself incredibly dangerous when used in battle (see Indo-Pakistan war of 1971, Iran-Iraq war)

  • @BrokeJoker04
    @BrokeJoker04 Před 5 lety +1

    They don’t need those launcher housing on the desk of ships anymore, cause the new versions of the super sonic missiles will fit in the ships built in missile silos. That was part of the design specifications given to the designers, before they started designing the missiles. But, I believe there are 2 different versions of the super sonic missile; One is designed for the ships missiles bays, subs, and planes. Plus, I believe they are making a ground based launch system, that will be launched from a launcher towed by a truck. They are also going to start mounting the laser defense systems on several ships, after they get done with final testings. The new carriers will have them mounted, and should be operational by next year. But, in regards to the missiles, We should be able to catch up in a year or two. Because the U.S defense budget is so astronomical, that gives us the edge over Russia. Russia’s defense budget is a third of ours, and we have so many experienced minds already in this field, that it shouldn’t take us long to find a far superior method of designing, and producing our supersonic missile. More money means more research and development, and we have the resources to hopefully make ours better then theirs. The last thing is that you didn’t talk about all the kinetic energy any super sonic missile has, when flying at those speeds. Even if the Cwis shoots down a supersonic missile, the missile will be traveling so fast, that it will still do severe damage to any target because of the kinetic energy it will have . Good job though I liked the video.

It hit midships and vaporased the middle of the ship and whats more concerning, the warehead didn't detonate.
