Sail: Less turbulence around bow array. Can rotate vertical for punching through ice. Always extended. Creating hydrodynamic turbulence. Bow: Can retract to reduce turbulence and prevent damage from ice. (I think)
I will guess that bow planes, being in the water at all times, can increase the initial diving speed. I was a supply clerk on a target, so my bona fides are pretty weak :)
Pump Jet propulsors are less noisy as the shround deflects sound. The con is that they aren't used by diesels (except the Russian) because they have poor low speed performance
they don't have poor low speed performance they just require a lot more energy to run. which is no issue with new modern lithium battery AIP subs. it's certain that all subs will be pump jet in the next decades. technology needs to mature a bit more
Dear mr. Sutton, contrary to what you might think most of us really enjoy listening to you talk and learning. Well you might think that you're talkin on too long or that you should be scripted we disagree. Your vast knowledge is most appreciated, especially when you share with us you've taught me a great deal about the minutiae regarding National submarines and how they're used. Please keep up the Fantastic programs, so I can keep learning.
For a moment i was tempted to start a discussion on why 'Hunt for Red October' only got the 2nd place. But when You named Your favorite i figured that it's a bit dependent on the context. For me, 'Hunt for Red October' is generally my no. 1, but in part because i love the power plays and humor in there. I fully agree on your assessment of 'Das Boot' and the better TV mini-series. (I even have a VHS recording of that. ;) The way how they made it together with the movie is pretty interesting btw.) Other than that: Great video. I love those longer Q&As and your artwork.
Funny you mention Das Boot. My house was pretty much a non cartoon/kid movie zone when I was growing up. So, I got a front row seat to a lot of more grown up content as a young kid. Das Boot and Stalingrad, Great Escape, yadda yadda. I probably wore those tapes out. Both the German films were very emotionally compelling in their own ways-even to a kidlet like me. Great Escape was just fun to watch.
The best submarine film is the one where you never see the submarine but it’s always there. The Bedford incident is a brilliant Cold War movie, the greatest.
@H I Sutton - Covert Shores Question for the next video/Q&A: As an Aussie I'd be remiss not to ask what do you think AUUKUS will bring? Both in terms of what sort of SSN do you think the RAN will end up with , Astute, Virginia, other (if other what?) and why? And what do you think the strategic and operational implications are for AUUKUS? E.g. basing, logistics, servicing/refits (Since there'll be another yard in the pacific/infian ocean reagion, presumably capable orf refitting SSNs) , force generation for the AUUKUS nations and the US in particular will the RAN SSNs effiectively just be the Indian Ocean.East Pacific USN flotilla freeing up SSNs for the US to deploy else where or redeploy SSNs worth of funding to other programs?? Totally unrelated to AUUKUS question: Can active sonar be spoofed e.g. you send an out of phase ping back, or a weaker or stronger ping back of the corect frequency to make it harder to calculate the range?
general answer, Australia is part of Asia and as such already "gifted" to China to buy some "equality points" for West (USA, Europe) so China doesnt take us over in next 50 years, Australia is like a nice gift for them, so no, all your "investments" are only a way of West to pick every last penny of your taxpayers money before you are "lost to China" :D in general terms, cheerio
Could you do a special on the capabilities, operations, and missions of the NR-1, please? I have read a couple of good books about it, but otherwise I find it difficult to find out more about this fascinating submersible. Thanks for all the wonderful content you publish. :-)
I believe the USN pumpjets have a stator both forward and aft of the propulsor where the RN ones only have a forward stator , makes maintenance of the unit easier for the RN as there isn't a need to remove the aft stator first
Hi again! Love the video, thank you once again. I'm reposting my question from another video of yours in hopes that it may be noticed :P "Unrelated question, I've always been fascinated by the Russian approach to automation on submarines, specifically torpedo auto-loading systems. Would love to hear/see more around this, perhaps in a future video?"
in socialism there is no "second class" and whilst in capitalism, a captain will get all the benefits but the enlisted man is treated as animal, in socialism everyone has "equal rights" so if there is way to automate, it is done as it is one of basics of socialism, the human is the constructive element of the system and every human should be cherished and its ideological "difference" the West will never understand. In CCCP a cleaning lady in factory had "same rights" as the factory director - in principle, practice was somewhat lagging but the idea was there and general approach to things - wherever you can automate, you automate because worker is the basis of that system and there is no purpose of capitalist "abuse" of workers. If automation costs million, and you can pay enlisted man to do it, in America and West, its generally done that way as humans are "expendable" and "changeable" in West.
Thank you for your excellent work 👏👏 I would like to ask about the American Sealance missile which was cancelled back in the 90's and to this day I am not aware of it's replacement yet the Russians have had their equivalent for DECADES. Is there a current Sealance ?
In the film adaptation, their _Red October_ has a larger towed sonar on the top of its rudder just like the AKULA and SIERRA. I have no idea if the modelers and practical effects team knew what it was, but-they knew it looked cool.
Sutton as I understand it the pumpjet on Virginia and the upcoming Columbia class are the same design as that on Astute and are supplied by BAE and manufactured in Louisville Kentucky.
What are all the advantages and disadvantages of pumpjets? I've seen some sources say they're especially useful at low speeds, while others have said they're best at high speeds. Which is it, and why? And is it better across the speed spectrum, or can they be worse than screws? Is there a larger danger of debris getting caught in a pumpjet than in a screw? (I'd wager a fishing net would be LESS dangerous, though?)
As a matter fact you are my all-time favorite movies is red October and I just washed it yesterday, Das boat is an excellent movie but I watch the English dubbed version because I don’t speak German but I have seen it subtitled.
The huge topic in ASW is active sonar using multiple synchronized distributed transmitters, multistatic sonar systems. That's what the new "stealth" 212CD and the new british boomer are countering. These MAS use lower frequencies than more traditional sonar, which makes absorber tiles less effective, so a better solution was required.
Given a sub replacement program for the RCN has finally been announced, what do you think of all the various options available to Canada and what do you think would be the best choice and what do you think is the most likely choice of submarine the RCN will end up with?
AUKUS (or CAUKUS?) or Barracuda SSN would be best choice, but doubt they will go that way. Barracuda DE, KSS-III, Sorju/Taigei, A-26, Type-212CD and S-80P are obvious candidates in design/political terms
Another factor that I don't think was mentioned for the "cold war factor" is listening networks like "sosus". By now I assume most states with ocean shores have these in their regional waters with the big aggressors covering most of the large bodies* whether they have direct access to them or not. *Atlantic, Pacific, Arctic, South China, Indian ocean...
Hi, was alluding to them in the masses of data comment. Russia and China have decent ones. However submarines are quieter so overall these are less of an advantage than they were at times in the Cold War.
Do you have any comments on LiDAR Technology? Maybe I understood it wrong but the chinese are working on satellite/ aircraft borne lidar imaging to detect underwater bodies namely submarines.
LIDAR Technology works on lasers and I believe lasers could not penetrate water surface. We use a lot of LIDAR technology for getting topographical over large area.
@@shansuleiman2567 it does indeed penetrate water. There is LiDAR bathymetry / airborne laser bathymetry (ALB) used for mapping ocean floors and river beds.
@@shansuleiman2567 It will work, in shallow seas. In strong sun and clean water, you can see objects underwater for a few dozen meters, and that's observable light. Infrared lasers will reach much deeper. Perfect on Asian coast.
I took a “Film as Art”’ class in Jr College and I had to write up a critique of a movie and I chose Red October and my professor was pissed and he clearly disapproved… I feel somewhat vindicated now.
Given that the Yasen class eschewed a pumpjet in favor of a traditional screw are pumpjets really all that advantageous over the screw in terms of their quieting ability?
It's 20 years old just getting finished so now to do with timing and the technology that was available. That said there are US examples from this timeframe that have pump jet propulsion.
I've tried unsuccessfully to answer the following questions, so could anyone here help satisfy my curiosity? Are modern periscopes still optical or do they use digital cameras? Or both? Also can any submarines detach (and then retrieve) a periscope to the surface on a cable while remaining at depth? Can submarines launch anti aircraft missiles while submerged? Can mines be deployed by torpedo tubes? Can a torpedo be used as a mine? (ie fired, travel to a location, rest on the seabed and thereafter act like a homing mine) Thanks. All the best everyone.
Hmm i wonder about the scope or possibility of building pens in the Falkland Islands.. Would any of these other nations incl. USA be bothered enough to come DOWN to us if we did and it would give us scope to choose where to insert if ever done?(nuke powered boats)
I do not understand the physics of your saying there will be a minor rise of height of water over undersea mountains not just for the water spreads factor and tidal currents, but when ships are close to the seabed, there is danger of a downsuction effect which works in opposite direction so just sounds weird to me. // Do you know much about Holy Loch-if you do, can you say please-if it's not a now about then what you know about what it was, how it fitted in alongside us? // You mention nuclear reactors, I thought we were batteries. Others are reactors. Or is that just SSNs // What's your opinion on BAE and its coming in to proliference, with exhaustion and disappearing elsewhere and fact there's a BAE Inc and a BAE plc, one needed for American deals and seems based in USA but us having 2 different offices in Britain for the two? (oh this bracketted is more just a speak out as time moves on, I find it disappointing a company I remember in its early stages being involved in a cash bribery thing with Saudis and was known for just producing Hawk jet trainer aircraft (and that's what was involved) and should have been well behind other British military producers has surged through..it shows an extreme and serious British Government neglect (to Tom Clancy it) in my honest opinion and fact USN is using Rolls Royce nowadays(when wasn't as far as I can tell pre2005, it saddens me as to just what is happening in this world NOW and is not being revealed), just who has the reins here in Britain; that Saudi thing mentioned being extremely relevant in mentioning as we actually have closer history to Iran than Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabia is more associated with another Western Country wrt this modern era than Britain..[its not actually a call-out, but I would like to group with mentions here, BAE were(/likely moved to bigger hqs elsewhere now but I don't know) based near afai would like to say near the under dark cloud (remote, off footfall with its own telephone system) city of Hull at a location called Brough. And for other readers not the main post creator (who has wrote and narrated or rather unscripted some really good stuff) wondering what BAE have to do with all this, they appear to be the main military producer in Britain now and also appear to own one if not some of our shipyards and includes in the now present building (and design) of vessels in their portfolio, (British) submarines..])
@H I Sutton - Covert Shores - have you seen this - USNI and the CSIS video with the USN Director of the Underseas Warfare Division from 2016 talking about the fact that at that time the USN was using unmanned arerial and undersea vehicleslaunching from 21"and 3" tubes in "real world" operations, with many more on the way ua-cam.com/video/yfrrYcphFBo/v-deo.html .. Pretty sure in your lasy Q and A you didn't think there was much point when someone asked about UCAVs and a modern version of the I-400. Not sure if these are exactly UCAV but it definately sounds like they are using sub launched UAVs as well as UUVs.
Hi Mr Sutton, question for you. Between A26 submarine oceanic extended with vmls (Tomahawk capable launched), German Type 216 that was proposed to Australia, the enlarged Brasil Scorpene submarine and the Japan Taigei class, since all are the largest and longest version in their class which you reckon is the best bang for buck and is AIP and vmls necessary?
Totally agree, it's not just the amount of data collected by everyone it's the ability to produce actionable results. If I'm going to arm chair quarter back here. The average Chinese and Russian citizen have more abilities with tech as they are all playing cat and mouse with their governments and in some cases, other governments. But, the OSINT ability might be a bit stronger for the west as the those counties can handle the good and bad side of intelligence leaks. Where I think China and Russia would tolerate you getting around a firewall and serving pirated DVD's..., but, the moment you release state secrets. (Even if by accident). It's game over.
Didn't the US develop a nuclear Tomahawk in the 70s/80s (TLAM-N) ? PS I'd prefr multihour Q&As should you be willing to do them - no need to sweat over trimming your word count on my account. (long form videos haven't hurt Joe Rogan) Just saying. ;-)
The Hunt for Red October is arguably the world's highest grossing sub film to date; followed by Crimson Tide. Both Crimson Tide and Red October are national adaptations to historical Cold War events. I believe Das Boot, though undoubtedly the most realistic, is only the third highest grossing Sub film; rest are flops.
Iirc satellite based interferometry could 'see' surface wakes of large things moving quickly (watching big fish in a pond will give the idea). There was also wake-following torpedoes, which did something (ultrasound?) to sniff the fog of tiny air bubbles left in a ship's wake
@@JohnMullee: I read in some book about it quite a spell ago, ( 25 yrs ago)? But it did say that it picked up the wake. I believe I also read a book of fiction, however, that said they detected the “heat signature” of underwater objects. I’m just an old man. I can’t help but think that 1/2 of this is true…?
Worth noting is the fact that the vast majority of modern US technology is based on the techtransfer from the UK in WWII, the Tizard mission. Before that, USA was technologically primitive in almost everything except massproduction.

What’s the advantages and disadvantages of sail mounted and bow mounted planes
Sail: Less turbulence around bow array.
Can rotate vertical for punching through ice.
Always extended. Creating hydrodynamic turbulence.
Bow: Can retract to reduce turbulence and prevent damage from ice.

I hit the like button because this channel is pure gold.
Could we please have more information what a “pump jet” is for a future video . Pro and cons verses impeller type.
Pump Jet propulsors are less noisy as the shround deflects sound. The con is that they aren't used by diesels (except the Russian) because they have poor low speed performance
they don't have poor low speed performance they just require a lot more energy to run. which is no issue with new modern lithium battery AIP subs. it's certain that all subs will be pump jet in the next decades. technology needs to mature a bit more
and can it stay underwater for more than 20minutes ?
@@thibaultroucaute5212 they can stay for 20 years.
in other words, pump jets are far less efficient than open screws.
Very often (but not always) optimisation for stealth costs efficiency.

Does anyone know what the reasons are for mounting dive planes on the bow as opposed to on the sail?
That we don't paint shark mouths on subs is a damn tragedy.

Was that narrow trunk in the KILO's sail for a man-held Stinger type AA missle engagement? Or was that space a 'crew capsule'?
Not sure I know which trunk you mean, but they do carry MANPADS 100%
I recall some of their subs had mast mounted SAMs hence why our ASW aircraft were fitted with flare packs and IR jammers.

@H I Sutton - Covert Shores - have you seen this - USNI and the CSIS video with the USN Director of the Underseas Warfare Division from 2016 talking about the fact that at that time the USN was using unmanned arerial and undersea vehicleslaunching from 21"and 3" tubes in "real world" operations, with many more on the way ua-cam.com/video/yfrrYcphFBo/v-deo.html .. Pretty sure in your lasy Q and A you didn't think there was much point when someone asked about UCAVs and a modern version of the I-400. Not sure if these are exactly UCAV but it definately sounds like they are using sub launched UAVs as well as UUVs.
Why do British subs (modern ones) look so angular and not like a smooth torpedo-like shape of US and Russian subs?
Erm doesn't there have to be a number 1 first?
Hi Mr Sutton, question for you. Between A26 submarine oceanic extended with vmls (Tomahawk capable launched), German Type 216 that was proposed to Australia, the enlarged Brasil Scorpene submarine and the Japan Taigei class, since all are the largest and longest version in their class which you reckon is the best bang for buck and is AIP and vmls necessary?
There is also the Barracuda DE and KSS-III/DSME-3000 designs to consider.
@@HISuttonCovertShores yeah, of which the Daewoo is already producing the III version while the Barracuda remains on the storyboard right?
Totally agree, it's not just the amount of data collected by everyone it's the ability to produce actionable results.
If I'm going to arm chair quarter back here. The average Chinese and Russian citizen have more abilities with tech as they are all playing cat and mouse with their governments and in some cases, other governments. But, the OSINT ability might be a bit stronger for the west as the those counties can handle the good and bad side of intelligence leaks. Where I think China and Russia would tolerate you getting around a firewall and serving pirated DVD's..., but, the moment you release state secrets. (Even if by accident). It's game over.
Didn't the US develop a nuclear Tomahawk in the 70s/80s (TLAM-N) ?
PS I'd prefr multihour Q&As should you be willing to do them - no need to sweat over trimming your word count on my account. (long form videos haven't hurt Joe Rogan) Just saying. ;-)
DAS BOOT...FOR SURE
I agree Das Boot is the best
The Hunt for Red October is arguably the world's highest grossing sub film to date; followed by Crimson Tide. Both Crimson Tide and Red October are national adaptations to historical Cold War events. I believe Das Boot, though undoubtedly the most realistic, is only the third highest grossing Sub film; rest are flops.
09:17 Ok but There must be a speed limit. I doubt it that any submarine can launch a missile while cruising "all ahead flank" at say 27 knots.
And what depth limit?
Der Jules Verne war schon ein toller Hecht Herr Specht !
The Soviets supposedly had the wake technology in the ‘80’s.
Iirc satellite based interferometry could 'see' surface wakes of large things moving quickly (watching big fish in a pond will give the idea). There was also wake-following torpedoes, which did something (ultrasound?) to sniff the fog of tiny air bubbles left in a ship's wake
@@JohnMullee: I read in some book about it quite a spell ago, ( 25 yrs ago)? But it did say that it picked up the wake.
I believe I also read a book of fiction, however, that said they detected the “heat signature” of underwater objects. I’m just an old man. I can’t help but think that 1/2 of this is true…?
I totally agree with you that Das Boot is the best sub movie. I can only watch it in original German with subtitles. The English dub is unbearable.
if you fart in a submarine, how many people will inhale it until it gets out again?
I like the picture of the Barracuda (Edit: the Soviet one) under the ice👍
That's leviathan playa what have you been up to?.......australian cancelled non nuke barracuda version sub😂
@@RUMBLE.com_ClickthruMAN so glad we cancelled that rip off contract and will be getting the subs we've always needed!
@@montys420- 2nd hand ones 👏👏👏👏👏 what r you gonna do with that obsolete ones? to scare out Indones fisherman 😂
@@RUMBLE.com_ClickthruMAN I meant the Soviet one.
@@RUMBLE.com_ClickthruMAN 2nd hand 1's? Your delusional we're building them new! 🤣🤣 👏👏👏 what rock do you live under??
The Pakistani 🇵🇰 cruise missile 🚀 is a reverse engineered US 🇺🇸 Tomohawk which went down in Pakistan on its way to Afghanistan.
bummer.
Worth noting is the fact that the vast majority of modern US technology is based on the techtransfer from the UK in WWII, the Tizard mission. Before that, USA was technologically primitive in almost everything except massproduction.
They robbed and conned the British. Tech transfer is a euphemism.
Crimson Tide had too much overacting and too many unbelievable characters for a sub movie.
how about you stop ripping off sub brief
Sub-Brief uses articles published by Mr Sutton (i assume with his permission) So i would guess they are on good terms.
Aaron Amick,
What an ignorant statement.
Skipped first minute of Sub brief video which mentions sources?
