  • dear santa,,,, you know you like me :D:D:D

  • I bet this thing must overheat lots.

  • oh the sweet sound of beefy crunch burritos making there vengeful exit

  • unfortunately it takes almost 5 minutes to reload.

  • so those REALLY do sound like that...

  • Anti-everything seems a bit presumptuous. I'd like to see this thing take down Chuck Norris.

  • the CIWS is like...derp derp derp aircraft incoming, fire, *aims and kills target* derp mode initiate derp derp

  • BF3 kids

  • @ballsequer lol fantasy MMOs are so manly, yeeaah.....

  • I want an anti-everything killstreak in the next COD :D oh wait that's called the moab...

  • lol that gun is in bf 2 and 3

  • Can we not just mount these on a couple tanks and use them as Anti - Personnel vehicles, after all we need something to put the ZSU "Shilka" in it's place.

  • They are great now. in 1983 thru 1989, We used to designate the CIWS (close in weapon system) letters as Christ It Wont Shoot. The internal circuitry was too fragile for shipboard electrical supplys. Fix it, shoot it, fix it again and put it away hope you dont need it without time to fix it before hand. They have improved things now. The new mount we got in 1991 was reliable.

  • @BornRandy62 I had an old VHS tape called "Modern Weapons of the 21st Century" or something like that many years ago. It showed the "B-2" bomber, "Standard Missile" and others including Phalanx CIWS. It showed it destroying bombs, aircraft, missiles, etc. but only in tests. Did that thing ever work, and also, I read that Phalanx systems were being removed and eliminated, is that correct?

  • @clintonearlwalker the second evolution of the Vulcan Phalanx was very good. The first one had awesome parts that didnt play well together. The gun was always reliable. The mount and radar was reliable. ut the computer tied it all together and you have to remember that those were the days of main frame sized personal computers. We had a PC on the ship made by IBM that ran at 8 mhz and we upgraded it to 256 megs of RAM !

  • @clintonearlwalker The CIWS mounts shot down many incoming targets. Under every condition that you can think of. The limitation was that it only held a limited amount of ammuntion. (less than a minute of firing time) The ammo was linked and electrically fired so you had to shut down all of the topside radars inorder to reload to eliminate the potential of a premature cook off. if you are being shot at do you want to shut off your detection capabilities?

  • @BornRandy62 Thanx for that, I would imagine reloading would be an issue on something that fired so many bullets so fast. I seem to remember reading a ship had it's Phalanx turned off when it was hit, I don't think it was the USS Cole though. Are they still building these things and deploying them, or do you know? This was a fairly expensive program and I was just wondering if it was still being deployed. I would rather have it, than nothing.

  • @clintonearlwalker in 1987 USS Stark was hit by an Iraqi exocet missile in the Persian Gulf while Iraq was still best friends with the US. Those were the years that CIWS was normally left shut off because it would fry electronic circuits if you left it turned on. Iran and Iraq were in a shooting war that did not include us. and Stark was in an area outside of the conflict zone altho the Gulf is a relatively small body of water and gets smaller the further north you go.

  • @BornRandy62 Thanx for that, that's it, the USS Stark I remember now. I looked on Wikipedia and there is much info about Phalanx. Apparently, it is still in use, and used by several nations (including Pakistan). There are several other versions of CIWS deployed by other nations including Russia, China, and the Dutch. Thanx for your info and stay safe, the Persian Gulf can be a dangerous place.

  • This might be the most american solution to getting rid of a missile, just throw as many rounds at it as possible, you're bound to hit it eventually. Makes me proud to be an American.

  • @hjoh6588 'merica. F*ck yeah.

  • Place One on a tank chasis. Turn into robot. :O

  • It's almost cute?

    

  • draw a smilly face with tracers.

  • Is this gun controlled by a person or computer operated?

  • @Coolcow6 Computer operated. It Triangulates incoming rounds and shoots them out of the sky based on a rounds calculated trajectory, very useful. Often, the radar to detect the incoming armaments is well outside the perimeter to give it ample time/warning to engage. You can see it reacts to a warning and calculates it's own firing trajectory before the round is within range.

  • @fergiy89 dang thats cool. thanks!

  • @Coolcow6  /watch?v=SGrJnxdDbO8 This is how the system wrorks in detail.

  • Dear Satan.... because Santa doesn't hand out this kind of fire power

  • why is the gun wearing a chefs hat? ;-)

  • it looks like a cartoon character from a diatance. Great for when the Jehovah's Witnesses come round. I'm amazed I have not seeon one on one of those shoot what ya brung vids from US firing ranges. Very cool.

  • got one of these bad boys in the backyard to keep the damn squirrels off my fence.

  • Thumbs up if you use this in Battlefield 3!!

    

  • It's not Anti Anti~!

  • i need a couple on my house for the zombie apocalypse

  • Whip of fire!

  • where do all those rounds land

  • @paper000000 they self-destruct at a given distance 

  • BF3 is more realistic than this

  • bf3 anyone?

  • @philipmclulu yep real life best gun. bf3 worst gun

  • How many bullets would you need to operate that thing for a minute straight?

  • @cgord31 the barrels would overheat so its impossible.

  • @xrayfishx Sorry it is obvious you never served sillyvillian! These are real and work to perfection. The best time to watch is at night at sea when the rounds hit down range and bounce off the water! Been there, done that and got the wounds!

  • like if you watch in 2012 ^^

  • @YouChillha i'm watching this in 1806.

  • F......

  • very fitting name :D

  • This is "Our" goverment preparing to take us out!! At peaceful gatherings and protests and other such places where they deem worthy!!

  • @krawdaddy33 Oh fuck off wanka

  • @krawdaddy33

    yes because dragging a 13,000 pound weapon to every protest is very practical thing for a government to do

  • Reminds me of battlefield 3 Kharg Island D:

  • @xSurinach except this isnt a human controlled weapon

  • this shit is beast in BF3

  • @sirgrundel hahaha no shit!

  • @sirgrundel no it's not... you can't hit anything the bullets travel like 100 MPH or so

  • @Tuzzz94 umm. try 2600- 3500 feet per second for infantry rifles. who knows how fast the 20mm rounds go

  • @oStirFryo i don't know, maybe 100 MPH is exaggerated. but ask any PS3 player about the stationary AA guns and almost everyone will tell you that the bullets travel much too slow to be effective, at least when you are a kharg island and all the action is like a mile away.

  • Thats what its like when I ejaculate

  • Americans need a nerf in update 2012.2

  • R2-D2 jerking off...

  • AWSOME!!!!!

  • This is where our taxpayer money is going? We might as well throw dollars at the enemy!

  • @GaM3Fr3aK117 LOL :) this is good.

    I guess you right, congress prints our money as fast as this anti-everything Gun :) lol :D

  • @lexxx666777 Couldn't have said it better myself. LOL.

  • Battlefield 2

  • It cost $400,000 dollars to fire for 12 seconds

  • @ArchonMalloth no it doint.

  • but will it blend?

  • fuckin love the noise it makes!

  • Fart gun

  • I can picture in my head this thing being spun up... And the C.O. getting whoever launched the damn missile on the phone, and being like "heh heh heh watch this s***." Incorrect, but that's what's in my head

  • Now, I wonder how far those rounds go when shot at such a high angle ? If they continued on a ballistic arc they would travel well faster than terminal velocity and could potentially cause harm to persons/property many, many kilometers away. REALLY high angles, rounds would reach maximum altitude and simply fall back down under gravity alone.

  • @SBwingman We (USA) shouldnt't use them in places we shouldn't be. That being said, better them than us. War is nasty and should be avoided at all costs, but if were gonna do it, we oughta go all the way.

  • @SBwingman Due to the speed and the distance they travel, the rounds break apart after a few thousand yards or so. With that arc most of them are dust before the top of the arc. The rest break up when falling.

  • @masterjarred32 Ahh, thank you for the reply. Very interesting and exactly what I wanted to know.

    If you don't mind me picking your brain a little more, how do the rounds know how far to self-destruct? Is it similar to the way a 40mm grenade fuse works, IE it counts the number of revolutions the projectile has made?

  • @SBwingman No, the rounds arn't strong, the speed there traveling and the distance they go, the rounds are not stable enough to stay intact, so they start breaking apart till there basically like dust.

  • I'm not sure why they put this in Battlefield 3. Generally, (as far as i know) they're used for shooting down mortars

  • @planesareawsome it's also used for destroying incoming missiles on naval assets which other countermeasures have failed to stop, as a last line of defense.

    It's usage as protection from indirect fire is really interesting though, it detects incoming mortar rounds, then calculates its point of impact. If that point of impact is within the area it is programmed to protect, it then does further calculations on how to intercept the round, and then.. well.. BRRRRRRRRRRRT...BOOM...no more mortar =D

  • We need a gun that is able of filling one cubic inch with 2,000 bullets.

  • hot large fart really nice!

  • impressive but... does it come with a cup holder?

  • "So what does it stop?"

    "EVEEERYTHING!!!"

  • anti bieber gun

  • did it destroy a motar at the begining

  • This is pretty cool, but I think I'd be more interested to hear what that 13 year old has to say about slut shaming.

  • Closest thing we got to a lazorrr

  • R2-D2?... WITH MACHINEGUN :D

  • just a pistol of chuck norris

  • faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaart

  • want one on my car !!

  • The Phalanx CIWS: turning any object deemed a threat by any U.S. authority (i.e., everything) to dust, 100% more effectively than almost any alternative.

  • i wonder where all those bullets fall

  • @CoLaKi1992 Paraguay.

  • @Killery96 yes. paraguay

  • @CoLaKi1992 The first time I saw one that's exactly what I thought.

  • @CoLaKi1992 in Shelbyville

  • @CoLaKi1992 Landin' in yo windows...

  • @CoLaKi1992 , in the desert???

    not like they fire in the city ffs :P

  • IS THIS GUN USED FOR DUCK HUNTING?

  • How about sowiet Kashtan 166 per second?

  • R2D2 is angry! That looks like White Sands,

  • Thats how my ass goes.

  • Thats a small cannon!

  • Its duck hunting in russia

  • Dam that thing is scary, bet it would turn people into red mist!

  • the deadliest fart in history !

  • @xXxAigoxXx lmfao

  • @xXxAigoxXx I'd say that distinction belongs to the GAU-8 Avenger on the A10.

  • @xXxAigoxXx fuck you for making me laugh so hard XD

  • fart gun?

  • its great for blowing up mortors in mid air

  • I don't really like guns, but I do love the title of this video. Funny~

  • i`ll take 2 plz

  • gun porn, sheer gun porn, flagged age appropriate!! :)

  • @Dragon32z LOL

  • sounds like ur mom in bed

  • the system costs 1.5 million and there are around 45 systems out. they are some deployed in the middle east and have defeated incoming mortars. The rounds are made by general dynamics and cost around 30.00 a round. so do the math 30 (cost per round) x 1550 ( the amount in the ammo drum) = $46,500.00

  • at the start, it looks like it is showing middle finger!

  • 0:55 that is absolutely crazy.. fuck fireworks

  • So much better than fireworks.

  • Chuck Norris can shoot faster farting towards a marble factory.

  • @cessna421ace chuck norris is jesus crist

  • Chuck Norris can shoot 2 times faster with a colt :D

  • @FBMToW2 chuck norris is jesus crist

  • LoL cool anti-air gun

  • VIDEO LOCATION: MEXICAN BORDER :P

  • I wonder how some were good at tax evasion, but I am sure this is how they keep the people from the tax office away. lmao

  • sounds like a prehistoric monster roaring - brilliant

  • I watched this used as a close quarters weapon on a ftx at ft sill.. you can use it for base defense too

  • this would of come in handy when those damn sea gulls come near my truck at mcdonalds!!

  • aim away from face

  • its the AA gun in battlefield 3!

  • LOL tile makes sense!

  • this is actually what is called a C-RAM and it is used to shoot down mortars, rockets, and anything else that is a threat to a base and it is a scary sound to hear because you know your being attacked and yes it will wake you in the middle of the night oh and to PSPmaster321 again im a tax payer also in the military but i am more than happy to pay every penny to this anti-threat system

  • So this is that retarded thing I see in Battlefield 3........

  • @pspfanboy100 You can actually use it too.

  • @pspfanboy100 It is very much dumbed down for the game. If it performed in game as it does in real life it would demolish everything.

  • @pspfanboy100 You can use it in Battlefield 3.

  • @fsx12354 Um.....yeah....I know

  • @pspfanboy100 Yes and no. In real life it is automated and more amazing.

  • @pspfanboy100 yes this is the fat piece of shit , wich is planted on a ship or on ground

    and it can destroy your holly jet xDD

  • @pspfanboy100 hahahaha fuckin works though! accept in BF3 it has FUCK ALL RANGE :(

  • @dannyday58218195 that's 'cause it would be massively OP otherwise. I do wish it had better range and firing velocity though...

  • I thought only pretty girls could make me do what I just did.....wow. I was wrong!

  • Wow, base camper.

  • That burst was probably worth a good $1,000,000 of taxpayers money!

  • @PSPmaster321 Well worth it.

  • @PSPmaster321 yeah and it saved my life several times in balad iraq so if you got a problem with that then you go there with no C-RAM to save you

  • @skullcrush67 lol, dude. y u so mad? I wasn't saying it's a bad thing, just stating what is most probably a fact.

  • @PSPmaster321 again that burst had probably saved about 5 soldiers so are you telling me that the burst shown here that was probably worth 1 million should not have happend? all i can say is your about to piss off alot of army, marines, civilians, and airforce members such as me about how their lives, children, husbands, wives, etc are not worth that 1 million dollar burst

  • @skullcrush67 "That burst" was in fact a training one...so it saved jack shit. Anyway, you have a big mouth on you, which almost makes me doubt the validity of your claims to being in the military. You just sound like a typical Walter Mitty to me. A real serviceman wouldn't make such a big deal out of what I said. I wasn't insulting anyone, just stating what is true, I didn't even say it was a bad thing...

    tl;dr just shut the fuck up you candy ass keyboard warrior.

  • @PSPmaster321 really? you basically told me that the military is an ass hole for making sure that this system works on a regular basis... yeah it used your money and mine as i pay taxes in the military too but would you rather be the bullet bag or have that system to stop mortars? your choice, you can stand infront of us or stand beside us by the way candy ass keyboard warrior? and before that you type something about how a normal military person wouldnt over react... now who is?

  • @PSPmaster321 im just giving true facts as to why this weapon system is in deployed locations... and it is there to protect the people that reside on the base... oh and by the way you try to call me out and say I'm not military? okay then when did you hear about balad iraq closing? in december? ha your wrong i know the true date of its closeur so give me your guess and ill tell you the true answer...

  • @skullcrush67 1st that burst didn't cost a million dollars. 2nd that was training. 3rd i'm ex military and i served so people could speak freely. so if the arm chair Rambo wants to talk shit who cares get a grip.

  • @Megabyteme325 first of all I'm going to clue you in as i am still military i have been to balad iraq i almost got killed by a 122mm and yet you served so people could speak freely and talk shit about the people in the military that give us a bad name and group us normal humans with them... yeah good job... sorry pal but i fight for people's freedom but i don't believe in freedom of speech that is one thing life has taught me because if people had freedom of speech i promise

  • Comment removed

  • @skullcrush67 NO DOUT

  • Every time this thing farts I orgasm.

  • Dont point that bastard at me

  • Shit, you better not angry up this thing ....

  • Sounds like me taking a shit after too much Taco Bell......

  • sounds almost as good as an A-10s 30mm lol

  • Those rounds maybe land on a far planet and make aliens declare a intergalactic war against earth. But that would not be a problem because we can just shoot them down.

  • @coolmanyeahhihi they explode after a distance

  • We rule!!!!

    

  • I need one of those to keep kids out of my yard. And people that let their dogs shit in my yard.

  • op gun reality plz nerf...

  • Thumbs up if it looks like Marge Simpson.. Sounds like her too!

  • Great title =))

  • no exactly a bullet saver
