Zumwalt - destroyer from the future
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 лис 2019
- The Zumwalt-class is a representative of a new generation of guided missile destroyers, incorporating the latest solutions in the field of military shipbuilding: stealth, missile systems, artillery, new power plants and advanced electronics.
The ships were created as part of a program to replace both the obsolete destroyers of the previous generation, and the retired battleships with their powerful artillery.
The problem of the project is its excessive complexity and cost, which limited the implementation and series production of ships. As part of the project, 3 ships were created, the main one of which is the DDG-1000 Zumwalt.

They literally spent the equivalent of all of North Korea’s gdp on these
Joe Blow The gdp of Birmingham is 10 billion approximately. The nominal gdp of North Korea is approximately 30 billion.
Oh well, it's not like the money got deleted from existence. All that money got spent to companies and contractors and they spent it on companies and contractors and all the way down the chain. And even the presumably enormous profits get spent and invested and frittered away and pretty soon we're just describing how an economy works.
It would make a good naval spearhead for our Atlantic-Pacific Theaters and Non Blue Water coastal patrols in those areas.
Most of the ship was probably made in Korea, then shipped to a US facility for assembly. Korea has a very substantial dock yard.

Bath IW being head contractor of ship build & framework, mainly.
Original order: 32 ships
Actually entered service: 3 ships
I think that ought to clear things up
Ive seen 5 of them in person
So they can have one in drydock,
one being re-equipped and crew getting trained.
And one actually at sea.
Ignored Advice Productions - Not unusual. There are only three Seawolf submarines. Other programs, such as the F-22, have been cut back significantly, while not so drastically.
@@GH-oi2jf The Virginia is a cheaper version of the Seawolf that will replace the Los Angeles class subs going out of service. Bad example mate.
A mean to replace BB? and no ChobAm armor at all??
One thing I like about BB is that it has armor, and upgradeable.

EXACTLY.
How easy they can fool the taxpayer of united states !
Kinda silly looking,
500k-1 million is the round that got cancelled, the vertical gun. The current one is 70 k per, 26 mile range, gps guided, firing 10 per minute.
Standard round would cost a few thousand only, but good luck aiming, particularly in bad weather, among civilians, or from behind concealment.
Theoretically you could roll up and purchase the world's best vacation property in one minute for less than 1 million USD.
I'm not sure about the land - based fancy sattelite hooked rapid fire artillery system? does it shoots the same fancy rounds or just a conventional artillery rounds.
There are another arguements that pro-cannons could use to dissuade over emphasis on guided missile systems... defensive gatlings like The Phalanx Systems can intercept any missiles as long as the ammo still available. Cannon shells, nah! too fast and too small to intercept with that. There are possibilities that main guns may be used in naval battles if it ever happens again. (Though the most recent surface ship VS surface ship action did happen in Eastern Europe several years ago!!!.. Soviet-era missile frigates fought against each other. i'm not sure about if such actions were entirely executed with missiles VS intercepting countermeasures or with cannons as well)
have we run out of money ,, I thought that was the Russians problem …
"hey we need a new ship that can fire its guns at land targets because missiles are too expensive"
"ok sure go ahead"
"Hm, shells are pretty lame though, oh I know, let's have the guns fire missiles at the land targets!"
"..."
Uh . . . isn't the Navy a bit slow with the idea of a combination gun/missile armament? The Army was using the combination gun/missile on the Vietnam-era M551 Sheridan tank. 🤔
Lmao reminds me of this ua-cam.com/video/aXQ2lO3ieBA/v-deo.html
Lord Dash Donald Dappington Most destroyers, frigates, corvettes, and cruisers usually carry at least one deck gun. Battleships are your old era hammers so to speak. The Zumwalt has two 155mm deck Guns stealth conceal capable. Old fashioned artillery can be used, but it was mainly fitted for newer smart ammunition. Thus one of the high overhead budgets that conflicted the commission of the other 9 boats of 12 proposed for build/delivery.
paul larzazs When modern boats (plural), launch a missile or array of missiles your defensive counter measure for capable cruisers/destroyers is to launch a counterattack array of missiles as well. If those enemy missiles get through/get close. Your AN/SPY, X-Band, S-Band Raytheon Radar Systems and Ku-Band FLIR systems will use (these radar systems also used to target enemy missiles and vessels) the CIWIS PHALANX Gatling Gun systems for clean up for the rest. Basically your answer is YES they do, BUT it is way more complex system now as compared to Vietnam, Korea, and WWII. CIWIS is a very capable system for SUPPORT/DEFENSE role. With its radar controlled accuracy, rate of fire, and descent effective range, it can cut a plane in half while in flight, and yes, even shoot down multiple incoming aircraft, missiles and torpedoes.
When I went thru FO training in Okinawa, Navel guns were almost entirely obsolete. With GPS and laser painting of targets my job became more about being sneaky than about actual land navigation and trigonometry. It's been awhile but I can't imagine the Navy guns are as necessary with armed drones being able to take off and land on even a submarine.
"Spending $22 Billion on three boats is crazy" that sums up the whole video. 😂

WOW!
When the destroyer from the future has no future
3 Billion each is a little bit ridiculous.
The entire military procurement system needs to be revamped.
We used to make fun of ten thousand dollar hammers and twenty thousand dollar toilet seats that the military would buy. They say that is fixed but the only thing they did was switch those overpriced items to items that sound more expensive like "flux capacitors" or "quantum discombobulators". The military industrial complex continues to scam the US taxpayers.
@@jorgensenmj we all know it's a joke, but there doesn't seem to exist any good alternatives for the time being. Private companies would try to lower costs (which may compromise capability) and adopting the Chinese model (state run firms) is really authoritarian.

@@marshalmontez6795 America really needs to cheapen its weapons, tanks cost millions, planes cost hundreds of millions and the warships cost billions, ships in the past costed much less
Hugo Huang yes I agree 👍
No railguns, no lazers. Just a floating lab with new computers
Frank Galeon Floating smoothing-iron)
Relax, those will come later. It's not the ship's fault that the railgun and laser projects are taking longer to develop.
Not quite comparable to the Monitor as this isn't needed to stop the Virginia. But if one thinks about it, there is a resemblance.
They said there is room for adding weapon systems later :)
Well, the paradigm shift has to take place and the shift will be costly and time consuming but will make the usn the top dog again
5:30 fun fact after my time around this ship when I was active duty. When this ship is picked up on radar, it shows to be about the same size as a small fishing vessel.
So that's what they mean by stealth. Those crazy angles work similarly to the F-117 Nighthawk, nice. Thank you for your service.
That’s fucking sick. Thanks for the info
Thats cool and all but notice the very few portals and escape hatches on the ship unless seems are hidden, i noticed that if it capsized in battle it would be worse than being in the Oklahoma at pearl harbor.
Shablé u are comparing a ship that used over 1,300 people to operate versus a ship that uses 175 at maximum.
@@shable1436 Instead of designing the ship to be easy to escape from, the idea was to make it so the ship won't be sunk in the first place. And the crew is well-trained and could evacuate very quickly in any case.
You said it: There’s nothing Zumwalt can do that far cheaper ships can’t also do. All the new tech could have been tried in the fleet over time at far less cost. This is SNAFU on a grand scale.
Ah, I see that the Tarkin Doctrine is already in motion
The Rainman here said what I was going to say. I see both of you are men culture.
I see everyone here is a man of culture
At least the Zumwalt does not have a thermal exhaust port that can be exploited by a small snub fighter.
If we follow the Tarkin Doctrine, maybe we’ll return to battleships in the near future
Yay star wars!!!
This ship looks like a new old model of navy ships from the American revolution
Maybe you mean the civil war monitor ships?
She looks like CSS Virginia sisterships

The front end always reminds me of the uss Olympia personally.

Navy: We need a new ship design but we only got 5 bucks.
Designer: I got u
The ship so smooth, the sunlight reflection is its main way of attacking
The R and D that went onto it will be useful for an actual warship
It already is going into actual warships, look at the crew compliment on a Gerald R Ford class aircraft carrier versus a nimitz-class. All of that automation didn't come from nowhere
And could have been developed for a small fraction of the cost on demonstration platforms, each looking at just one or perhaps two new technologies. The Zumwalt program, like the LCS or the F-35, has been an overambitious fiasco that has ultimately weakened the deployable Navy.
But the construction cost of each ship without R/D is 4b$ its a disaster.
@@marinecommando3445
"But the construction cost of each ship..."
...All three of them?
...Say, have you heard of this little thing called the SEAWOLF-CLASS?
@@matchesburn lol seawolf reference you sure are making enemies in pentagon by refering that boondoggle
One day when they have a good projectile for their guns and have a laser for defense, maybe then it will be a great idea. Till then these ships are just white elephants.
They got castrated when the geniuses canceled their main gun armament. After this point it did not matter what was done, it was a failure.
A 16,000 ton "destroyer" with guns that have no ammo available..... this is one huge trio of boondoggles. The money wasted would have bought a LOT more Arleigh Burkes. As an old tincan sailor myself, this whole project sickens me.
I'm sure these can carry the latest rail gun already fitted to ships ...you are up to date at where they've reached yes? I didn't think so ,you wouldn't have spotted that crap if you did .....
Lance Revell amen!!! They are building larger versions of the AB destroyers for South Korea and Japan,,,, why we do not do this is beyond me. Cruisers are getting long in the tooth and need replaced, seems like a smart plan to use that platform.
w8stral they are getting lasers soon so that’s pretty cool
This is amazing. I am a civilian. The Zumwalt looks to me like a 21st Century avatar of the 19th Century Monitor ironclad. A magnificent work of naval engineering art and science! I always wondered how Monitor did not sink in rough water, its deck was so low to the sea level. Again, I'm just a civilian, I don't understand anything here. But this ship looks to me to be a real work of art, unlike a lot of what are called "art works" by "artists" in the civilian world in 2020. Don't give up the ship!
These are wonderful ships (if one can say that about a weapon of war) but just too expensive. A "slimmer' budget model of destroyer that fits the taxpayer is now coming into place.

Absolutely - everybody has to have a cut, otherwise there would be competition in the tendering process and the whole project might only have transferred $10-12b of taxpayers' money to 'the complex'. Lockheed Martin got the jackpot on the F-35, GE got it on the Zumwalt class, my guess is that it'll be Boeing's turn to lead the next over-budget, under-spec fiasco.

Much of the hull desings of Stealth-Era warship projects will be that way. except that navies lost interests in armor platings of any form since the end of WW2. which the BBs are decladed obsolette.
The Battleship Wisconsin served admirably in the first Gulf War. Long range guns, vertical and cluster strike missiles, immunity to land based weapons. She's in mothballs now.

@@lordbucketheadpolling5824 exactly. The US has a massive logistical and Technical advantage over all modern navies and non state actors, however their countermeasures, motivation, training and planning, have brought them closer to parity at a much lower cost than the billions the US spends to maintain it's navy.
@@grontelp77 Drones are taking care of the riff raff. Watch documentaries on Isis and other terrorist groups and they freely admit their fear and frustration of drones. These larger projects are obviously for potential future conventional warfare, and their very existence decreases the likelihood of large-scale warfare because of their deterrence.
The more automated they get the more expensive they are to build. I had a chance to tour the Zumwalt while docked in Newport, RI. Indeed automation and computer networking in every p-way.
As someone who plays From The Depths, that isn't enough guns
It can’t do a damned thing it was intended for, and curtailed from 30+ to three units. Pretty sure it’s not only a failure, it’s a colossal waste of taxpayer dollars.
It did exactly what it was meant to do. Military procurement is less about defense and more about contracts.
Colossal being the operative term - at nearly 16000 tons it has somewhere between 80% and 90% of the displacement of HMS Dreadnought (18000 tons at normal load). For a destroyer, that seems to be a little bit overweight...
So is the entire US military spending

I did watched the video, that is why i commented here. The railgun cannon development start 2 decades ago, which eat a lot of resources and money.

Never have I heard someone troll a warship so hard within the facet of a documentary so hard!! LOL
I mean it's a revolutionary design. I think something to keep in mind is that at some point or another in history new ships coated quite a bit. Here are a few examples:
1. Introduction of steam powered ships
2. Introduction of armored ships (ironclads)
3. Introduction of submarines
4. Introduction of carriers

@@IgnoredAdviceProductions You know, if they actually made this into a submarine instead of a destroyer, it'll probably do quite well. A sub that can insert Spec Op teams, but can also support said teams while keeping minimum radar presents. It can also contest the water, preventing enemy naval assets form interfering the Spec Op's unless they bring their own warship. And if the Spec Op's doesn't need help, it could simply submerge.

but this one actually ended as a pile of shit. The F-35 is still struggling
@@Alecxace F-35 is progressing rather well after *that clusterf&k of a dev. phase.* Many of the problems the press are highlighting are out of date or out of context.
And as you say this ship is a travesty
From the future? She looks more like the CSS Virginia from the past to me.
Blast from the past!
And probably less significant historically XD
@@IgnoredAdviceProductions eh, at least CSS Virginia participated in the first Ironclads battle in American history. That's significant enough.
@@hanselsihotang That's what I'm saying, the Zulmwalt's going to do absolutely nothing other than be a sad footnote
I had that same thought - it's ironic!
Awesome channel
When it arrived in SD back in 2017, it was towed in because it broke just miles from port. I stood there on the pier thinking why is that ship being towed in from a much further distance from any other small boy (small ship). Had the privilege to walk on board. Very nice inside.
12:01 - General Data? Is that a promotion from Lt. Commander?
LoL
Look at that girl at 2:03 flirting with the camera man
Or just the camera, noting the number of commenters that have pointed it out.
This is one hell of a ship you have. Yet when compared with others its suggested it wasnt really anymore capable. But lets not forget. This is a very deadly capable vessel and your efforts and expense is note worthy in your effort. Not many countrys if any can explore new ideas that go so far ahead in desighn on chance and its still a deadly vessel. Certainly not a failure by any means.
That is the coolest ship on the water.
Do you think the Zumwalt Class is a good looking ship or absolutely ugly?
It is very unusual. But, in the future, I think they all will look like this
Gorgeous ship
She's not pretty, but she's tough

Great video man...
Also, I know this is an odd video suggestion, but do you think the USA is being too greedy with its military designs and generally overbuilding what should be simple things?
I have noticed it often that later US military vehicles like the Sargent York and even the more recent tanks designs have a hard time advancing forward in design without extereme cost and labour...just and Idea and again love your vids!
Super Cool Awesome!
The Zumwalts- while Troublesome, the Technology is the Promising Part, and they have to be Tested somewhere beyond the Shore (shoreside testing grounds and labs, that is).
Remember the MBT-70 project ended in failure. What it did lead to was smaller and cheaper electronics and its design inspired the M1 Abrams tanks series.
Failure is only a complete negative if nothing is learned from it.
I remember seeing one of these (I think) Being built at the Bath Ironworks during a tour.
Super Ship 👍
