little known fact but the warheads also contain a full symphony orchestra and a thousand decibel sound system that can be heard even in the vacuum of space.
like you strapped yourself to the missile and are trying to disarm it mid-flight before it hits its target to save millions of lives and possibly the world mission impossible style
No missile will ever be able to hit the target dead-on. The one in this video has an inaccuracy of about 200m CEP. That means that if two LGM-30s were launched from Vandenberg AFB right now for a system test, one of them would drop the test article within 200m of the target at Kwajalein Atoll
In highschool our rotc colonel showed us this video, y’all should’ve seen the excitement in his eyes explaining the process of what was happening in each stage. Especially at the end “and there goes Russia, boom! - gone”
Too late, you said God? God promised. To never destroy the world with water again.....but FIRE, it was written. Deep state Experts agree within the next 10 to 20 years nuclear annihilation. Why are billionaires all buying up doomsday bunkers
Nuclear weapons should only be used in the most dire situations, ones in which the consequences of using strategic nuclear weapons pale in comparison to the consequences of not using them. Just short of all-out war with either Russia or China, I don't see US nukes being used deliberately any time soon.
I couldn't help but notice the missile was lettered with "Amazon" on its side. I knew they were getting OCD about fast delivery, but this is ridiculous!
***** The rotation you saw in the video is to add stability while falling as the air has resistance. Think about the bullets fired from the gun, bullets spin as it left the barrel because the barrel is rifled. Spinning pointed projectiles add stability while in flight.
It's an ICBM dude, they do not use spin stabilisation (some do use controlled surfaces though) . They rely of vectoring for stability and trajectory, the spin and counter spin you see is a simple pitch and control manoeuvre. All high angle of attack vertical climb missile's and rocket's use these manoeuvres, you would only ever use other stabilisation method's for these function's if you are under financial restriction's (like home hobby rocket's) with exception to some highly effective Russia systems that use controlled surfaces and vectoring. (do some case studies to find out what i mean) The reason for the spin and counter spin function is due to the influence of wind, humidity, temperature, ect inducing spin on the rocket/missile causes un-desirable spin that result's in spin drift, spin drift is the natural deviation over time distance forcing a body off it's intended flight path. As these system's use INS and GPS system's continuous spin is not desirable as you would require more electronic's and pointless system's to calculate and control the motion. So in conclusion it is there to stop spin so the electronic system's can accurately calculate what is happening and have a high degree of trajectory control. Personally I rather the use of both vectoring and external control surfaces to control missile system's.
HONORGUARD308 He wasn't talking about the missile itself but rather the spin of the re-entry vehicle, which is indeed necessary for its aerodynamic stability.
+HONORGUARD308 I believe you're getting this a little confused. What you say is true, but the original guy is talking about the re-entry vehicle and the warhead, and not the initial missile lol. Still, thanks for the info, it's cool to know. :)
spinning is just to apply the law of conservation of the angular momentum!! A mass of that weight wont change its orientation once rotating even at low speed!! A bullet requires high rotation speed due its low mass!!
The warhead in it's RV spins for three reasons. The spin disarms one of the stronglink systems so it can detonate. It also helps it burn the RV casing evenly so it does not get a hot spot and burn through, and finally it creates centrifugal forces that stabilize it in it's way to the target like a tossed football.
Nice video, but with one inaccuracy. In the video, the silo cover stops just after clearing the top of the silo. In reality, the silo cover is propelled with enough force to hurl it all the way across the compound and through the perimiter fence, enabling the silo cover to clear and potential debris from the silo.
Yup the door is moved out the way by two large artillery gun charges, and yup it will be blasted clean across the field. Keep in mind it is a door so heavy that when a an ICBM blew up in place it only got tossed about 20 feet from the launch tube... the 9MT warhead got lobbed like a morter over 300 feet from the site perimeter fence. What happened is a tech dropped a wrench that poked a hole in the lower ADH fuel tank and the tank emptied causing the missile to crush like a can mixing the dinitrogen pentoxide with it causing a huge explosion. This is one of the resons we went to solid rockets, also they are quicker to launch as well.
What kind of softwares can I use to make animations just like these? (Missile launching, tanks, weapons, etc...) 3D simulators? Game engines? What is the best? I have some video editing background but that's all.
This Minuteman III can carry three reentry vehicle warheads with the speed 7 km/s this minuteman III also known as LGM-30 while the peacekeeper missile can carry 10 nuclear warheads with a yield of 300 kilotons and up to 475 kt each warhead this is also known as MX missile and LGM-118
Sean Yap the russian SS-18 "satan" can carry 38 warheads 250 kt each or the ss-18 orb Version could carry a FOBS satelite-MARV-warhead with unlimited range (can round the earth multiple times) a not ballistic trajectory and a single 5 Mt warhead...
Yes, but at that point it's accurate enough to get the job done. The last maneuvering vehicle you saw with the blue colored propellant will do all the precise maneuvering before releasing the reentry vehicle
+Horizon585 Yeah you're correct; the warheads aren't ENTIRELY accurate, lol. There's some constraints as the warhead drops down onto the target, an example being something like wind, etc. But I don't really think 150m would matter for a 150-300kt nuclear warhead, heh.
Javaman, one thing you may notice at the beginning, they are on the coast flying out of Vandenburg AFB which is where they do flight tests. A flight from there wouldn't have a silo cover like that (and probably not have a silo cover at all). They also wouldn't fly a real mission with a live nuke from Vandenburg AFB so realism is out of the window anyway.
***** Northrup Grumman? The animation has errors. The MM III (LGM-30F) had the body shown, yet the RV bus in the animation carries a single warhead found in the MM I/II series, which have very different body assemblies. The real 30F carries three W87 warheads. Moving at hypersonic Mach 24 terminal velocity, the glow of the RV shield would be white hot. Also, real prompt nuclear flashes are bluish white when not filtered.
Graviton64 no its ablating. It wouldn't be white hot. All ICBMs are ablative and not ceramic. Each layer of ablative material burns up too quickly to get white hot.
Graviton64 I really don't think the ablative surface itself is white hot. Every time some material burns off a far cooler under layer is exposed. And I dont think its possible to ever know because any camera in a position to film the ablative surface itself would be exposed to the same hypersonic airflow. ground videos are not going to show it clearly enough to tell.
Nope Minuteman III ICBMs can carry up to 3 warheads. Nowadays they usually have one. The Peacekeeper can carry up to 10. And North Korea probably has nukes, but car-sized bombs are quite far off missile-portable warheads.
As a person that knows alot about space i highly doubt that those RCS thrusters will be liquid fule powered. Mono propellent would do the same thing, just a thought though.
It's about as big as a man; size doesn't always mean power. The warhead shown here is probanly either a W78 or a W87 (most likely W78), which can still be at least 20x more powerful than Little Boy dropped on Hiroshima. Couple that with the MMIII's MIRV capability of 3 warheads, and you get 900+kt power probably (depending on yield set).
Because they are designed to be more precise and limit fallout and civilian casualties. Strange as that may sound with nukes, but the idea is to eliminate the other sides military capability, not wipe out their population.
Ever realize how over-complicated and must-be-properly-timed all this activity is ? In fact, we may all be grateful if most of these never work or totally fail.
Actually, the US Air Force Global Strike Command launches one off every year or so to analyze the Minuteman missile's ability to launch if it must. Because the Minuteman III uses three solid rocket boosters and only one liquid fueled engine, it can be left in the ground for about twenty years, only be checked twice a year and STILL be ready to launch.
little known fact but the warheads also contain a full symphony orchestra and a thousand decibel sound system that can be heard even in the vacuum of space.
