This Unexploded Sidewinder Missile Got Stuck in a MiG-17 and Mailed to the Soviets
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- The American Sidewinder missile was unlike any other at the time. The Soviet Union and China envied the weapon’s capabilities, as it allowed a U.S.-armed Taiwan to successfully take down MiG fighter aircraft by the end of 1958
However, their jealousy did not last long after one of the American-made missiles failed to detonate when it met a Chinese plane. Safely lodged intact and sticking out of the fuselage, the Sidewinder would soon be delivered to the Soviets. By reverse-engineering the weapon, the USSR would make it accessible to the Warsaw Pact, enraging the Americans.
Not content with their initial intellectual theft, the Soviets would later launch a daring espionage mission to avoid inventing upgrades to the missile themselves...

"Hello, police, I'd like to report a theft. They ran away with my bullets in them."
ok
Police: I hope those are tracking rounds!
You are not wrong to use this analogy, this happened at a time when Taiwanese ROCAF would fly sorties into Chinese Mainland.
Police: WHAT THE HELL KINDA CRANK CALL IS THIS?!
dont use 9m.instead cal40 or cal45 for sure they stuck infront of you
During the Vietnam war an F-105 was hit by missile fired by North Vietnam fighter. The missile didn't explode but got embedded in the F-105. When the US Air Force inspected the missile they found that the parts were interchangable with the US sidewinder missiles.
The lack of F-86 Saber footage is disturbing
Agreed, my only real criticism of this channel is his affinity to talk about one thing while showing footage of another, for example in his xb-70 Valkyrie easily half or more of all aircraft footage shown was of the Concorde
1:50
Talking about the saber *Shows F-104*
Unfortunately there wasn't much footage of most aircraft pre 1970/that hasn't been bought up by companies and force you to pay them royalties for using it.
Even static images with a label would be better than nothing
I have to agree. Maybe showing a quick image of the object in question when it gets mentioned would be a decent compromise. Even just on top of the background footage would do it
No wonder they got caught, they mailed a freaking Missile
They mailed a missile for 80 bucks, a missile that could destroy a 800k bucks aircraft

Very true
China yes. Russia no. Americans stole many pioneer techs from soviets too like of mig25a and mig 21. China just copies everything Russia makes because it is accessible to them easily.
Not in the case of Russia or Soviet Union. Its a falsehood they just copied though they would do it if it saved them R&D. There was very few true copies of western stuff the Soviets actually used. PS modern US missiles actually adopted some design elements of late Soviet designs so everyone does it.
I still can’t believe they had these missiles but they didn’t have color tv
🤣
1950s TV was just a fad, will be gone in a few years...
Colour TVs don't bring down enemy aircraft, there's the reason.
They focused their money onto important developments like military technology. They couldn't afford to make (kinda useless) stuff because they didn't have leftover money to do so.
to be fair, the military got a bunch of funding
Steals a missile, serves 3 years. Sells a bag of weed, serves 20 years. Seems legit.

Those prison sentences seem very small for how much info they leaked
Probably as the result of plea deals that implicated others.

I feel "unxploded" missiles would actually be a good invention for war, Most pilots would assume the warhead malfunctioned and head back to land for repairs, with GPS technology being what it is you could time it perfect to maximise damage.
Perhaps, but for this to be effective, the enemy must be able to know they have been impaled, while also being damaged enough that they can’t fight back and shoot down their attacker. The signal for the impaler missile also needs to be fairly strong so that it can’t be lost or jammed easily.
Absolute legend just straight up picking up a missile and wheelbarrowing it to a waiting car and causally driving off with it like you have to admit like that's incredibly ballsy.
1:47 isn't that an F104?
TO be FAIR , the US did send F-104s to Taiwan, dismantled in C-124s, and that video IS probably those F-104s being reassembled in Taiwan. They didn't see combat, they just flew up and down the coast at Mach 2, just to make the Chinese wonder WTF was going so fast...
In fact, Taiwan's F-104 did see combat and score one, probably two kills.
1967, one RF-104G belong to 12th Reconnaissance
Squadron was doing its job along china's coastline.
Suddenly, two Migs show up on the radar, and RF-104G starts heading back to Taiwan.
As the RF-104G trying to escape from the Mig-19, four F-104G belong to 8th Combat
Squadron comes to rescue.
Two kills were scored by the F-104G numbered 4347 and 4344, using AIM-9 sidewinder.
Check out his last 6 videos regarding jets... he shows completely different jets than the ones he is talking about.
Also he is talking about modifying sabres and shows footage of a mig 19.
Felix Chang they did had starfighters but they have nothing to do with the video and the incident he is talking about.
So you noticed that too.
The F104 stories may be true, no argument here. But, Taiwan did have an alert pad with at least 2 aircraft loaded for war. I spent some time as a weapons specialist on the pad in the spring of 1964. I slept on a top bunk when on the pad, and that claxon horn must have been near my head. That thing is very loud! And all I remember the Taiwanese having was F105 Thunderchief aircraft.
I'm astounded at the extremely lenient sentences these spies received.
Yeah no kidding

Voix de la raison orange man bad
Spying is actually a good thing. It prevents that one country can become the only superpower.
The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't.
In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has acquired a variation, the variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was.
The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows. Because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be from where it wasn't, or vice-versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be, and where it was, it is able to obtain the deviation and its variation, which is called error.
It's guided by a meme
They always say "where is missile?" But never "how is missile?"😥

When you know, but can't prove you have a spy, you just kill him.
At the very least they should have restricted his access and barred him from any positions invovling access to sensitive information on grounds of suspicion alone.
@@SoloRenegade That's too likely to initiate a "witch hunt" mentality inside your own organizations, and that can be crippling. Plus, if you do that you will never catch him - either he will bug out from fear you already have enough information, or he will shut down his operation and all you'll have is suspicions...which having never been proven, will falter, and sooner or later he'll be promoted or transferred to something sensitive again.
@@sundoga4961You're wrong. My plan would not to be to fire anyone a random person is paranoid about. Rather, only those people who've come under serious investigation more than once under suspicion of legit espionage acts. the amount of information he leaked over 60yrs merely because he was unchecked is outrageous. And I wouldn't be "looking" for people to investigate without cause either. But I can recognize a security risk when i see one. There was no good achieved by letting him leak so much information for so long. And you can easily place a lifelong hiring/promotion ban on an individual in positions in which gov secrets are involved. Whenever he's up for a promotion or hiring into such a position, he would be flagged. All other nonsensitive positions he'd still be eligible for. You can classify a person as a risk to security with regards to classified materials without finding them guilty. People have been denied military/gov clearances for less all the time.
@@SoloRenegade Yes, but you'll find that those people were generally denied a high security clearance on application, not after a long period of possessing one. The exceptions are situations where the person themselves or their intimates have done something that causes a reassessment, like joining a radical organization or being involved in poorly chosen activities.
A relatively high-ranking military person? De-rating their security clearance is executing their career. Sure, a Colonel involved in advertising and public relations has little need for a high clearance...until he does, in order to massage the loss of a new, high-tech and classified weapon system and ease the press interest in why you're sending an entire division to recover one plane. In a very real way there are no "nonsensitive " positions.
If you don't have enough information to act against a suspect, he remains just a suspect and you could be dead wrong.
Suicide them. You wouldn't want to get bad PR from your own side.

Yo forgo th t
Not true, their last video was 2 days ago

The Lada is a copy of an early 50's Fiat. Fiat sold the Russians a copy of the plans and a whole factory, and helped them move it from Italy.
That’s what the Chinese learnt

Pity it didn't !!!!
Demolition and munition experts won't find it too hard to get into something like that. It's dangerous, but not trying to get into boobytrapped bombs n stuff. 🙄
My papaw was on the navy ground team that tested the first gen sidewinders back in the mid/early 50s. He fitted old corsairs and hellcats with radio control systems and flares on the wing tips for a heat signature. Apparently those things will fly with only half a wing.
That’s pretty neat

@@SekritKomrade Correct this seems lazy on their part also I think it misleads the viewer if they aren't knowledgable. They discuss a Mig-17 and show a Mig 21, if you don't know what these aircraft are that's going to give you the wrong idea.
Half the footage of fighter jets were from the cockpit of a F14.
in fact.... pretty sure i didn't see an F-86 the entire video....
or how about what looks like the T-28's
I remember when I was a boy, my father was working as a civilian in Neuburg German airforce base, it was a big discussion about how it was possible to smuggle out a 3 meter (6'6") long and 70 kilo (155pounds) heavy thingens out of a high security area.

Stig Wennerstrom not a very tribal name.

Why isn’t almost any picture coherent with what is narrated?

It's because it's hard to find footage from way back then, and even harder to find footage that isn't copyrighted

I agree completely. Talking about an F-86 while showing an F-104 is just dumb.
And then shows an F-14 RIO firing a Sparrow while talking about F-86's firing Sidewinders.
Yes. It was very distracting.
I have to wonder what else they got wrong.
I thought that I was the only one annoyed by the 'Chinese Tu-22 Blinders'. ;)
I knew of both of these incidents though I lacked details on the second one. So thanks for the additional information.
From what I read the part of the fuselage they first missile struck was for the aircraft's tailpipe and was partially damaged by the hot exhaust from the engine.
Imagine being the pilot flying back with that jammed in his aircraft. Obviously his knowledge of what had happened was limited. But the aircraft's flight characteristics must have been effected so he would have been aware something was going on. Plus he would have felt the hit. I bet he had the smoothest landing ever.
USA (sarcastically): GREAT SHOT KID THAT WAS ONE IN A MILLION!
Maniacal Chinese and Russian Laughter.
Very interesting documentary, very surprised there are such high quality videos free on UA-cam
Some plans for the Sidewinder were stolen from China Lakes Naval Weapons Testing Center in California. I don't remember what year this was.
Dark Docs is great about using footage that do not have anything to do with their actual subject matter, but then again half the documentaries on UA-cam is great about that.
They were waay too easy on those spies.
Anything short of the firing squad is an unfair sentence
also this was the reason why the US never sold their advance weapon to ROC again
How is it an intellectual theft when it was literally flown and sent to you?!...minus the explosion thing...
Because communists are evil and steal things duh
Locally, we have a law that says if someone mails you something or gives you something you didn't ask for, it becomes your property.
This prevents the old scam of mailing people books they have to return at their own cost, or pay for.
And that's why it should have had a self-destruct option.
Is it really intellectual theft when you attained the item in question when it was fired at you, trying to kill you?
No I would say that one is finders keepers.
Stealing plans is
sc1338 keeping the missile fired at you isn’t stealing plans
Best way to steal enemy technology? Walk in the base and take it.

@@akacurmurdar1 mostly by paying off those that have power to give you secrets. I kind of doubt that universities have any secrets to give. They have couple of extremely interesting courses.

There's a Soviet made copy of the AIM-9 seeker in a corner of the China Lake museum. How it was acquired isn't documented, but the China Lake engineers learned things from the Soviet copy, and incorporated those things into the next generation of the AIM-9.
U.S. security was pathetic that these clowns were just able to walk into an ammo dump and waltz away with a missile poking thru the car! Also penalties were ludicrously soft - pathetic !
Walter It was a West German airbase ( not American) with West German Army guards. The reason they got off lightly was they didn’t manage to steal the navigation unit, which was one of the most secret technologies on the missile. The theft was committed by people whom were not American so the US had little to do with the prosecution. An American caught doing that would probably get 20 to life.

The 'And signaled the protusion with a red piece of fabric as required by law' was a very interesting touch
4 hits from 6 Sidewinders fired, that doesn’t sound like very comforting odds for a revolutionary infra red missile!
