The warhead on the NSM is on the smaller side, as well. I am not sure why these navies are rushing to buy the NSM when the latest Harpoon variants are at least comparable in most respects and also have a much heavier warhead.
@@williamjpellas0314 This strike blew the the top of the ship off and that's a kill shot. The missile is also very accurate and can be programmed to hit the water line. It's not the only anti ship missile that you will need in your arsenal but it's a good one to have it can be fired from any aircraft or ship big or small and it can also be fired from land. ua-cam.com/video/jhGJ53oS1Bo/v-deo.html
This means they can give those Harpoons to Ukraine. I love how the Ukraine war is stimulating everyone to be better prepped for a China war. Russia's navy is so weak, it hardly justifies a big effort.
The sm6 1b is exciting they're enlarging the rocket from 13.5 inches to 21 inches giving it the same engine size as the sm3. The missile will go hypersonic and have longer range and has a 140 pound warhead. If they could enlarge the warhead to 280 pounds combined with the hypersonic speed it will be a devestating anti ship missile
@@dwwolf4636 Going hypersonic it will do even more and enable the missile to be effective against bigger ships even though the warhead isn't overly big
EMP is electrical, so no nuke needed. & they used missiles in the gulf War that threw out long strands of wires. When the wires landed on the electric grid & linked a lot of the wiring, it overloaded & shut down their whole power grid... 🔋
I'm not sure they have a surface combatant to fire it. It's not long range enough for coastal use. Russia doesn't have to come within 100nm to prosecute targets with their missiles.
@@nicholasmaude6906 Yes. Norway has them on light mobile vehicles with similar distributed radar, control and launcher flexibility developed for the NASAMS SAM system. And the US Marines have modified that idea for their own shoreline defence. Poland also operates them in a land-based configuration I believe.
The Russian ships seem to get slammed by multiple basic missiles by Ukraine in the black sea, even when the Russians are in heightened wartime stand by :)

The LRASM would have made more sense. The LRASM can be equipped to F-35, P-8 and has options for VLS and topside canister launcher but most importantly its 1000lbs warhead is far more lethal than NSM 276lbs
There are a lot of good options on the table nowadays including the tomahawk maritime strike missile and SM6. I think the NSM definitely has its place and costs half that of a LRASM. The warhead is plenty capable, just look at the damage a couple hundred kg of C4 in a boat did to the USS Cole which was out of action for over a year getting repaired.
Nearly every significant missile will be looked at as a potential palletized weapon for Rapid Dragon, including NSMs. QE and POW are also well positioned to use their F-35Bs to feed target coordinates to NSMs before and after launch. USMC is relying on NSMs to help control Chinese navy chokepoints in the SCS.
Is NSM really any better than the latest Harpoon? Simulator range, smaller warhead, SIMILAR SPEED or lack thereof. It's smarter, but slow, short legged, and light in punch. "INTERIM" is all this missile should be.
They should have opted for the LRASM as it has all the options The LRASM can be equipped to F-35, P-8 and has options for VLS and topside canister launcher The only difference is the booster for VLS and topside canister launcher
It seems a small upgrade, it is welcome we now have it but a far longer range/deadly missile will be needed.
The lrasm could be a good option with its longer range and 1000 pound warhead
The warhead on the NSM is on the smaller side, as well. I am not sure why these navies are rushing to buy the NSM when the latest Harpoon variants are at least comparable in most respects and also have a much heavier warhead.
@@williamjpellas0314 it has better stealth capability

Randomizing can be sort of predictable the closer you get. Think of approach trenches nearing a wall.
Thanks Defense News. Also for the real voice.

The speed will do enough of that already.
@@dwwolf4636 Going hypersonic it will do even more and enable the missile to be effective against bigger ships even though the warhead isn't overly big
I think Ukraine will get more harpoons
Where is that EMP directed microwave drone or missile talked about so many years ago? No nuke required to initiate EMP?
EMP is electrical, so no nuke needed. & they used missiles in the gulf War that threw out long strands of wires. When the wires landed on the electric grid & linked a lot of the wiring, it overloaded & shut down their whole power grid... 🔋
I wonder if Ukraine is going to get the NSM? They'd certainly put it to good use destroying the rest of Russia's Black Sea fleet.
I'm not sure they have a surface combatant to fire it. It's not long range enough for coastal use. Russia doesn't have to come within 100nm to prosecute targets with their missiles.
@@chrissmith-rv5ro Do mobile land based launchers for it exist?
@@nicholasmaude6906 Maaaaaaybe. I know the Marines are experimenting with launching them from JLTV, and some other TEL type of tractor.
Yes.

Neptune was an upgraded version of a cold war missile.
How far...who knows.
FK War Thunder it takes away from the serious aspect of this channel - but I suppose you gotta gets money somehow
Gee...do you think that maybe you could talk a little more slooowwwly and stick same pic up while you babble on & on so this could be MORE boring?

@snsproduc
There have been proposals for a VLS compatible NSM.
@snsproduc LRASM is just air launched right now isn't it?
LRASM is a tad bigger than a NSM.

@@chrissmith-rv5ro from what I understand it has been tested in a VLS and is capable of being launched from one

The UK F-35s still lack a long precision asset. The USMC is signed on for both NSM and the heavier JSM
Russia's cruising for a bruising and when they get it they're going to learn a big lesson in life
sea-skimming missile in combination with stealth, very deadly.
how?it is backup when the laser cannons recharge
once the new frigets come in with the mystic uk and french missle :P I can see the NSM being moved and put on the Type 31 and Type 32.
testing of this missile over water, as it skimmed the surface, is the video people called a UFO. so awesome to see this going to deployment.

Is NSM really any better than the latest Harpoon? Simulator range, smaller warhead, SIMILAR SPEED or lack thereof. It's smarter, but slow, short legged, and light in punch. "INTERIM" is all this missile should be.
Stealthy, and a non-emitting sensor suite allowing for better target impact site discretion.
My main gripe with NSM is range.
We should have just gone for the er storm shadow with a large combatant killer warhead... 300 could have been in service by now. ...
That would have taken severe modifications,storm shadow is a cruise missile for fixed targets,not a seaskimming missile to hit moving targets
They should have opted for the LRASM as it has all the options
The LRASM can be equipped to F-35, P-8 and has options for VLS and topside canister launcher
The only difference is the booster for VLS and topside canister launcher
