Trident II launch goes wrong

[OutlawGamer101]

well thats a MIRV now after it split up

[Nikolaii2571]

Looks like somebody goofed.

[StamZO]

look at that missile trying to be different and shit..

[t3hrasterbator]

Pause @ 0:30

RIP, Challenger...RIP

[TheGlasnost1]

that looks a lot like shuttle challenger.

[honestnestanderson]

thats my cum shot

[ganymedeIV4]

So today I learned,

The trident II rocket system is a hilarious piece of crap.

[Jospehporta]

@ganymedeIV4 Today you lean red you can't tell the difference between a Russian missile and and American one :) It isn't a Trident dumbass.

[ganymedeIV4]

@Jospehporta Hell yea,

Now come back when you can form proper sentences and spell words right, because it's rather obvious you would not of known the difference if it wasn't for the top comment of this video.

[ganymedeIV4]

@Jospehporta Hell yea,

*NUTMASH*



[sfarrel7]

As has been pointed out, that was not a Trident Missle.

[Soothsayer42]

Let me guess, it was made in China

[vh90278]

and they supposed to carry nuclear weapons, gives you confidence in our soljer boys dont it? lol

[Hellvern]

@vh90278 Anything can go wrong, sometimes no amount of training can save you from a tiny technical error, especially when that technical error is flying through the air at speed.

[rightwinger2]

It's OPM (Other Peoples Money) in this case the taxpayers.

[DJTarga]

Looks beautiful, albeit expensive :D

[BLOODYFT]

More like a Trident III if u ask me..

[tryithere]

This was actually a test of the fail button and abort launch button. They worked perfectly.

[clintonearlwalker]

The first Trident II launch occurred in January 1987, and the first submarine launch was attempted by USS Tennessee (SSBN-734, the first D-5 ship of the Ohio class) in March 1989. The launch attempt failed because the plume of water following the missile rose to greater height than expected, resulting in water being in the nozzle when the motor ignited--Wikipedia There were 135 consecutive subsequent D-5 tests, the last being in March of this year.

[ZaTubok]

Your new missiles will not be able to overcome the C-500. They will be destroyed in space.

Your "patriot" shit against the new Russian missiles, are able to change direction.

[zhmapper]

@ZaTubok The trident II was invented in 1990 and the patriot was invented in 1969. I guarantee you we have much better technology 21 and 42 years later!

[ZaTubok]

@zhmapper Sorry, i do not believe it.

The old C-200 was invented earlier than the "patriot"

In Yugoslavia, he destroyed your "stealth"

But now we have C-500, that can destroy Trayden 2 in space.

[RetSquid]

@ZaTubok

S-500 planned introduction date ~2015. But totally ineffective against Tomahawk missiles.

[xelsq]

@RetSquid

No one will fire S-500 at Tomahawk, it will be too insignificant target for this SAM))

Any relatively modern tactical SAM can shot down Tomahawk with no problems.

[RetSquid]

@xelsq

Sorry, you are wrong. Very few SAMs would have the reaction time and the discrimination to hit a low-flying missile like the Tomahawk, that is why it was designed as it was. Of all the thousands fired in the last few decades, I have not heard of a single one being shot down.

[xelsq]

@RetSquid

A few missiles was shot down during the gulf war (the number varies from 2 to 29), more during the balkan war (the number varies from 25 to 300). And none of that NATO targets had modern SAMs I was talking about, only an obsolete crap like S-125 and even worse, that was not designed to deal with low-flying targets.

[RetSquid]

@xelsq

I was there for the Gulf War and never heard of any being shot down.

[aeromech84]

@ZaTubok Really? at 18.000 mph??? lol

[ZaTubok]

@aeromech84 No matter what the speed.There is a ballistic courses!

The missile interceptor meets in the specified location

Speed​interceptor missiles at more in hypersound.

[SauseMix007]

Isn't that a nuclear bomb?

[97skinnyboyswag]

boom:|



[adrianroam95]

Columbia!

[ginofrater]

UGM-133 Trident II, or Trident D5 Unit Cost: US $30.9 million

No wonder we are in the red!!

[zhmapper]

@ginofrater The Gov't paid US citizens to build them.... internal spending has no effect on our foreign debt. And I guarantee you this was not mad in China!

[ginofrater]

@zhmapper

Just read my post, and then post your ideas.....

[ramoniak6]

1:10 i think it's an optical illusian but it looks like it hits a navy's ship

[Chudluv1973]

That is not a USA Trident II SLBM. I believe it to be an Russian SLMB R-39. At 0.06 you see a nose cap being rocked off. No USA SLBM system has that. I believe only R-39 system uses that kind of nose cap.

[TommyJMaylee3141]

@Chudluv1973 You're certainly correct that is not a Trident II

[DoctorPossum]

@Chudluv1973 Yeah, I think you may be right.

[DOMISFTW2009]

good thing there was no nuclear warhead in it =o

[ArabAstronomy]

Biggest spring ever :D

[kineticdeath]

oh dear didnt quite reach the range they were hoping for i think

[reb362]

"MIRVs" don't fire off like that. Looks like the Nose Fairing fired off therefore creating a non-aerodynamic boost. explains why the missile wobbled. guidance can't compensate for that kind of instability. Range officer had to blow it up. Plus...that wasn't a Trident II.

[akinkhoo]

@reb362 any idea what missile it was?

[reb362]

@akinkhoo all I can say is that is an OLD video.  Trident II wasn't deployed until the early '90's. This video was from the mid-80's. At that time the U.S. had the Poseidon and the Trident I deployed. Both had some failures that were taped. Neither are in service anymore.

[sw5mister]

any weapon system can malfunction. that looked like the MIRVs cooking off prematurely

[plankton22]

Looks like a squid

[johnniemojo]

that's gone about as wrong as wrong can be!! :)

[MultirStealthFighter]

who knows, maybe they were really aiming at the sharks lol...

[cassyogta]

pause at 1:03 ....it's just me or we have a pingeon in the clouds?

[sharkgator1]

our equipment made by the lowest bidder

[sharkgator1]

our equipment made by the lowest bidder

[84hemz]

thats stateside, alot smaller number in the uk. me thinks 5 trillion out of 191 trillion is in the grand scheme of things a good investment to keep your country safe. In the uk we only had 4 nuclear subs with trident carrying capabilities, im not sure but i guess you guys have alot more

[fiemosport1]

Thats when we stopped bying those things from ebay

[WarhawkWaffle14]

@fiemosport1 oh shit... i bought three of those a month ago... no wonder i nuked Russia and not my brother.. hmmm.. oh well

[WarhawkWaffle14]

@WarhawkWaffle14 jk... i agree though

\

[84hemz]

For all the funnys who say we dont need trident or that it cost too much, running trident cost 3.5% of our annual deffence budget.

[MrGingerkid51]

@84hemz ya so just a few billion dollars...

[ghostalin]

@84hemz 3.5% of 5.5 Trillion dollars is 191,450,000,000

I'm not saying we should get rid of trident, but I am most definitely saying that 3.5% of the national defense budget is not a small number.

[lamwai19927]

there go our tax money

[slimhope1]

Wonder what that cost.

[emmon72cz3x]

Thus, the government deemed it a success and ordered two thousand units.

[BitnikGr]

BEAUTIFUL!

[ReptigloRand]

Oops.

[aleksandarrudic]

That was MIRV(Multiple Independently targetable Reentry Vehicle), I guess. LOL

[Boy75402]

@RandomHuman1000

It's a missile, its unmanned...

[darrinr769]

0:30 double helix!

[toxiczebra17]

thats the scariest combination of words of all time. Trident Launch goes wrong

[twhite47]

Syrpad - Not sure where you got that clip but I have photos from our launch from USS Benjamin Franklin back in '82 that match your video - smoke puff for smoke puff. That's a 640 class sub BTW (in fact, THE 640) and the telemetry told them that the launch was bad so they allowed it to get a bit downrange and aborted it. It was packed with loads of extra HE (high explosive) to make sure any "fishing trawlers" in the area woudn't have a morsel of circuit board to pick up with a strainer.

[joeadzhiyev]

i think it was trying to spell something out

[radonas]

i see why its called trident it leaves 9 smoke trails doh@

[iaberis]

they named a rocket, trident? lol! does it come in flavors too?

[jamcrane3]

@iaberis

A trident is a three pronged spear, most famously carried by Neptune, the Roman god of the sea.

[Spencerianism]

That would explain the Norway Spiral.

[tennisgeek1996]

How the fuck do things like this still happen? Come on humanity!

[planetcheck]

what goes up, must come down!

[EEEL123]

Without a doubt, this is the strangest rocket failure I have ever seen, although, unfortunately, not the most spectacular by any measure.

[EnclaveRobloxTV]

Trololol stupid seagull.

[mrFalconlem]

no sound? awww.

[THEMSASBOYZ]

Late looking at the vid...1:00 looks like a red arrow fail (Blue dolphins in the u.s)

[malamagr]

Well, that was the most tame yet entertaining rocket failure I've seen... thanks for the fireworks.

[mullethippie96]

ITS A FLAME WAR

[gibbsm]

expensive fireworks!

[xXxchipperchopperxXx]

hmmm parts made in china and assembled in mexico?

[YAVALIOMX]

@xXxchipperchopperxXx

You wish you piece of shit!!

[ZvedKa]

@xXxchipperchopperxXx  nope, US factories XD

[ShadowGhost777]

hmmmm failometer 9 out of 10

[valiantcc]

bet it was made in china

[MrNooneseesme]

Blimey what a waste of money - how much do those things cost? I bet there is no refund from the manufacturer either

[Ucaklar]

how to make a rainbow out of smoke. answered

[XxRuthlessKillxX]

Its the grim reapers saw!

[ToTirDeKK]

lol that was pretty fucking awesome

[doceigen]

Oh? Ouch... that was a painful kick in someone's career.

[evoldevildogs]

now days we spend big bucks for fail

[mooseasaurusrex]

It woulda been prettier at night.

[strikezero01]

well I guest that was the Trident missile's technician.. "Why did you set it off.............?!!!!!!

[washerjeber]

wtf

[djscottdog1]

one bomb died in this vidio

[abuhuj]

10 sharks was killed

[mogul50]

@abuhuj 10 sharks WERE killed dumbass

I love how everyone has gotten their panties in a wad over something they know nothing about other than what they read in the description of this video. I now have such faith in the citizens' whose rights our military is fighting so hard to protect.

[Dmac11a666]

@mrsbeegeorge Our military is not fighting for our rights...Name all the countries we occupy and name how many of them actually provoked us...We got to get that oil...LOL You fuckin bitch!!!

[Zhmenka]

such videos motivate to learn physics!

Nice Rainbow <3

[mekoskitecho]

THATS NOT A TRIDENT 2 IS A TYPHOON MISSILE FROM RUSIA, UNTILL NOW THERE NOT REPORT OF TRIDENT 2 FAILURE,THE REAL TRIDENT 2 IS A VERY DESTRUCTIVE WEAPON HAS BEEN EARN HIS NAME IN THE SECOND STAGE SURELY IT MUST BE CALLED PEACE KEEPER BECAUSE IT WILL NEVER WILL BE USE

[mekoskitecho]

THATS NOT A TRIDENT 2 IS A TYPHOON MISSILE FROM RUSIA UNTILL NOW THERE NOT REPORT OF TRIDENT 2 FAILURE IS A VERY DESTRUCTIVE WEAPON WHO EARN THE HIS NAME IN THE SECOND STAGE

[pete95035]

Solid-fuel rockets such as these make a lot of air pollution. Liquid-fueled rockets utilizing hydrogen produce only environmentally-friendly water instead of smoke. But perhaps this is a moot point because these rockets are meant to carry nuclear bombs...

[kubarebo]

@pete95035 Liquid hydrogen is the pretty much the worst fuel to handle in terms of complexity. Hydrogen is the smallest molecule around, and it tends to leak through everything. There's a good reason why SpaceX used kerosene on Falcon like on Saturn's 1st stage. The whole "hydrogen economy" is something an uneducated buffoon came up with. It's too hard to be used outside of very tightly controlled conditions. At least it's safe when it leaks and ignites: flames go up and away. No gasoline pools.

[kubarebo]

@Djinnfest And what has that (medical research whatever) got to do with using hydrogen as an energy storage medium?!

[kubarebo]

@Djinnfest OK, you fail at communicating what the heck you mean. I talk about problems with using hydrogen as an energy storage medium. Then you rave about someone making millions from research (research by whom and into what?). And then you switch to speaking about medicine. If you mean something, say it. Don't get your ego all worked up because people aren't mind readers.

[kubarebo]

@Djinnfest There is no research needed into using hydrogen as an energy storage medium. It has been well figured out at the time of Apollo program -- you know, with Saturn's 2nd stage being LH2 fueled and all that. The only engineering (that's not RESEARCH!) that has been recently done is into optimizing production cost of cryo storage needed to keep that hydrogen in a car. And some improvements were done to the fuel cells, but that's nothing major. You're just making stuff up.

[samcitadel]

I wonder how much money that cost us tax payers...

[potatomanjr]

That looked pretty cool falling back down....

[randomdotification]

loving the two top comments LMAO

[Inigo93]

FWIW: 2 of the first 3 D5 launches failed. They figured out what went wrong, made some changes... And have never had another failure. Today, the D5 program boasts the highest demonstrated reliability rate of any large scale launch system, bar none.

[465fire]

it doesnt run off vegtable oil its canola oil

[XxMLGxZEZExX]

It's a double rainbow all the way across the sky!!!

[0369DevilDog]

2 Million dollar shit happens huh? LOL

wow fireworkssss!!!

[Pyrotechnican]

perfect smoke bomb!

The best thing is that it falls in a trident formation :#

[Alexxx2276]

@younglove552 No,you wont blame china.Made in UK!!! SHIT QUALITY!!!

[GymmFFreak89]

@Alexxx2276 Yea UK makes such shit quality ( Aston martin , Mclaren, rolls royce, bentley, Range rover , jaguar, Best Tank in the world, best Destroyer in the world, the first Verticle take of jet , the first Radar, Telephone, television, concord) etc etc etc etc etc ETC ETC ETC .... stupid kid

[killswitch445]

Thats a russian Buluva. Not a Trident

[stitches611]

i bet that nuke was built by either the french or the english lol

[Redmanfms]

Not a Trident. Nice try though....

[G250174]

This kinda test going wrong can prove very dangerous, especially if launched from a maned Vehicle . Lots of lives at at risk.

[obese1konobe]

Interesting to see the unburnt fuel still burns even after hitting the sea!! Happily burns anywhere has own oxidiser so once lit that's it!!!!

[floydfreak63]

Very acrobatic.

this is what happens when people try to make gum fly...

[bennon1221]

Am I the only person who can hear tourettets guy yelling in the background at the missile?

[listenthinkspeak]

OMG it's coming back!

[misterbonzai08]

Ima firin mah lazor!

[stevesg92]

can someone explain something to me? are nuclear bombs that are in these types of missiles set off by like a button or if they simple hit something with there be a nuclear reaction and thus nuclear explosion? thanks

[lotteein420]

@stevesg92 neuclear bomb = neuclear fission, or neuclear fission. you either split atoms apart, or fuse them together. each releases energy. i don't think trident missles are neuclear. the first neuclear bomb, the one dropped on hiroshima, was fusion i think. i'm pretty sure it was a metal case with dynamite in it lol. i also heard it only used a fraction of it's "fuel" not sure if that's charges or potential. button operated neuclear bombs are definitely possible though

[ELEMENTSFAN666]

@lotteein420 no hiroshima was not fusion it was fission, fusion reactions create alot more energy than fission.

[TheRascalKing007]

@lotteein420 Trident missiles are nuclear. As ElementsFan said, Hiroshima and Nagasaki were both Fission.

[lotteein420]

@stevesg92 Hey bro my bad, I meant neuclear fusion or neuclear fission.I typed fission twice lol

[Fuzz40]

Well that was a successful test of how a Trident II can fail.

[kanesabian]

Fre uranium anyone?

[janssen70]

Expensive fireworks

[TheOriginalKrakker]

I found that pretty interesting

[ipponify]

how did it go wrong?

[Buggerme77]

I would have thought it was remotely detonated, by the sub-commander, after a successful launch during a training exercise.

[kill3r197]

It was aborted, the part of the launch they tested was complete and you cant reuse the launch vehicles. The kill vehicle was not on board for obvious reasons.

[Pearlharbor350]

Bad ammo!
