CIWS PAC Fire Aboard USS Kitty Hawk

[SammieeCarmello92]

Imagine this as a nerf gun or bb gun

[QbnBeast]

Tippmann!!! GET ON IT!!!!

[blitzkrieg1925]

maganda daw sabi ni papa pag gabi!!

[amiralgarner]

well... i think i don't want to be the target of this gatling...

[worldchamps271]

dang

[devastationz12349]

that's the sound i make after a bean burrito

[drumer919]

part 2

Just because the levels arnt high enough to power fusion/fission doesnt mean its not still dangerous, there are numerous NATO treaties banning, or at the least limiting the use of DU munitions because of this very reason, its well known its dangerous!

[drumer919]

@ Joek0617- Depleted Uranium munitions ARE radioactive. DU is simply another class of uranium (all Uranium IS radioactive) and has a half-life of 700billion years, the reason you can stand to be around DU without insta-death is its biological half-life (the time it takes for the body to eliminate half of it) of only 15 days, your still going to be at risk of radiation sickness for well over a month even after just the smallest dose

[salski70]

word!!!

[kingmigget]

chuck norris jokes are stupid as shit, chuck norris is a pussy now, and probably always was, have you seen his total gym commercial? look at his gay little mustache :/

[7themirror]

after that our waters are more contaminated are u retardars..? yes you are but good shot to ur economy,retardars

[joek0617]

@7themirror DEPLETED uranium is not radioactive, it's actually the waste from uranium enrichment, the stuff we don't use in nukes and stuff because it's not unstable or radioactive

[short55380]

Aaaannnddd... it's gone.

[AmphibiousReconMSOB]

pet the kitty I dear you to.

[fatoverlean]

Yeah!, I'm proud to say that I have served aboard the Kitty Hawk, 1976 - 1980.

[MWL4466]

Gonna mount one of these to my 88 Suburban. I've fucking had it with these slow-ass driver's !!

[drummermylo]

Bad memories of the Kitty Hawk sailors flooding the base with long lines and causing havoc out in town and ruining privileges for everyone else... But sure would have sucked to have been stationed on there though.

[ReverendSaucy]

@Macemeetface1 It's a MISSILE DEFENSE system, genius.

[xxzakthecoolxx]

i used that to clean my sink!

[Fightrt1]

@xxzakthecoolxx there must have been food CAKED on that sink dude

[MrLarryMead]

Phalanx CIWS (Close In Weapons System), Caliber 20x120mm, Firing Rate: 4,500 rounds a minute or 75 per second of Tungstrum Penitrating shells, Tungstrum wieght similar to lead. Guidance System, Ku-Band Radar and Flir. 6 20mm barrels. You can barely hear the gaps between each shell, driving by Pneumatics!

[flipmasta14]

excuse me???? butter anyone???

[MrXGAMES1000]

THAT'S REDICULOUS!!!!!

[0815tdl]

@MrXGAMES1000 THIS IS MADNESS

[RooForce]

@Macemeetface1 You're right, but that's not what it's designed for. It's part of the CIWS (close-in weapon system) and is specifically to counter anti-ship missiles such as Exocet and the more modern variants. It works.

[Ferdoche]

ca ferait bien sur mon balcon

[CBKillas]

Can a half ton Chevy hold one?

[iloveairfrance]

RAMBO fire it handheld ;-)

[Kiban00]

0:18 meoww

[5029]

At the end that gun smokes a cigar and says thank you mam.

[fibreoptik]

This is definitely for hunting seagulls.

[tpbdragon1]

hey it's Chuck Norris' BB Gun

[colts2170]

i want one.

[Romanflight]

I FUCKING WANT ONE!

[Snapshot290]

put some tracers in the chain and noone will fuck with your boat.

[Mouse18e]

@Snapshot290 good god, imagine how many tracers will come out per second. i'd shit my pants if i saw that coming my way.

[TuAFFalcon]

What no Chuck Norris comments? You all suck!

[Sidewinder9877]

BEAST!

[DEVASTATOR478]

FOR OUR ITALIAN POLITICIANS!



[MagicTsukai]

Seriously, get the fuck out of my lawn!

[malib0osted]

Let's see how somolian pirates go against this

[willj78]

I CAME

[highwayspeeder]

R2D2 taking a shit! XD

[nthnsome]

Wow what a let down. Can I put this on my civic and find some real targets down town.

[jonshawn88]

FUCKING BIRDS!!!!!!!!!

[globemaster68]

CWIS shoots the biggest part of a missile first, and then the next biggest piece, and so on and so forth, until there is nothing but shrapnel left, the gun is guided via radar, and THAT is THE last ditch effort at defending the ship. 50 rounds a second, that is ONE BAD ASS GUN, wish i could put one of those bad ass guns on my car.

[fruchttragend]

@globemaster68 I need one for my house, too many bulglars XXXDDDDD

[billhaley1868]

more like the USS Chuck Norris!

[KaS10592]

@billhaley1868 Chuck Norris was killed by Bruce Lee in Return of the Dragon II. More like the USS Bruce Lee

[TuAFFalcon]

Chuck Norris was inside the dome.

[rbmdl]

DIE AIR DIE!!!!!!!!!!

[BawszDiva]

R2D2 cumming

[SuperNoobdude]

this isnt the CIWS, its an anti-everything gun!

[blazingfury26]

chuck noris called he wants his nerf gun back

[zachj589]

@blazingfury26 You totally stole that from the other video....way to be creative.

[1856eddie]

@zachj589 way to air him out

[zachj589]

@1856eddie damn straight

[Briliant571]

That is easily the scariest sound I've ever heard.

[fluffeesh]

@Briliant571

@Briliant571

/watch?v=S3oZP2tEbH4&feature=r­elated

/watch?v=riqu8hmPHd0

The A-10's GAU-8 cannon (or should I say the GAU-8 with attatched A-10) is easily the scariest sound I'll ever hear, the videos of it send shivers throughout my body.

[Briliant571]

@fluffeesh

I agree. I've seen videos of those things strafing targets and it is indeed terrifying. The pilots also come home smelling like gunpowder, even though they're in a sealed cockpit. I knew a guy who was a crew chief for an A-10, and he told me.

[KCHISMYCREW]

DAM BIRDS LAST TIME U SHIT ON MY BOAT

[ultraboy222]

@KCHISMYCREW XD XD XD I laughed like crazy XD

[SuperSpeedfreak88]

@KCHISMYCREW  yup, i guess that shut them birds up...

[wiscorhino]

accuracy by volume.

[gbgladiators]

Now THAT is getting rounds downrange in a rapid fashion!

[RXR102]

thats one mean bitch :D

[RoadCaptainEntertain]

Happiness is a warm Barrel.

[HarisonHopwood]

OMG I LOVE THAT SOUND.

[listenthinkspeak]

... I lost count of the bullets after the first round came out.

[sopos63]

well... i guess Pearl Harbor is never going to happen again

[hotdogman67]

@sopos63

Lol, no kidding. A single burst from that would tear a Japanese Zero clean in half.

[Pashazgv]

fired at the USS Hello Kitty Hawk

[hoplandappraiser1]

USS JOHN KING (DDG3), USS STERETT (CG31), USS MAUNA KEA (AE22), COMNAVSURFPAC. Watching this thing go off first hand and up close is an E-ticket. Same with the Harpoon and ASROC. USN '72 - '82.

[2dogsfkn]

Dear Santa, i have a rabbit problem at home and this should fix it!

[TheNDW123]

@imMORGANxD

you wouldn't make it far away enough fast enough

[shaoolmufazz]

wow, fast enough

[kcbuscher]

thats R2D2 with a hard-on.



[billhaley1868]

@kcbuscher R2 D2 blowing his LOAD! lmao

[MurakumoElite]

could you imagine firing this weapon from a weighted mount on the arm of a human sized mech?

[dgl1962]

Allrighty, that'll be $1900.00 for ammo please...

[surrelljr]

R2D2 with a uh you know.

[assholeyeng]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­Aoh!

[PilotWork]

Just in case you ever have to kill everything, ever

[ajg2business]

For all of you guys that have a clue as to what type of weapon this is and the amount of damage it can do would not make jokes about this. I was on a ship that ran test for this weapon. Who ever shot the video knew that they should have not been outside when this weapon is being fired. Ever heard of captains mass.

[Robbob9933]

@ajg2business You were never on a ship. Because if you were you would have known it is Captain's MAST not Captain's MASS. You are just repeating a misspoken term. And yes it is permissible for people to be on deck when weapons are fired. You just have to be in the safe zone and use hearing protection.

[ajg2business]

@Robbob9933 U.S.S. Camden AOE-2 93-96. Polly Wogg!!!

[Robbob9933]

@ajg2business Nope, not a wog. Shellback, Blue Nose, Red Nose, Golden Dragon and Rock. USS Tarawa, USS Blue Ridge, USS Guam.

[o7Antalyali]

ooo



[killersushi99]

This is how we got a hole in the ozone layer.

[NH3R717]

Kitty Hawk vet. here, that could have been me who shot the video but it was another guy from my shop, I could have been famous......

[underdogg87]

holy shit, did i just die?

[mackc6r]

I can see this being marketed in residential security.

[TuAFFalcon]

You got Chuck Norris upset. This is what happens.

[91238673]

The Orcs are on us! quick what do we do?

Use this says Gandalf....

Damn Gandalf! that worked like a mother fucker!

[taystew]

R2D2 has a wild ass penis yo

[OriginAndAbsolution]

@taystew That's easily the best comment I've ever seen! I'm actually LMFAO

[PandaXII]

@taystew i love you

[xXc0nqu3r3rXx]

@taystew Your funny.

[TheAmericanFreeBird]

@taystew HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH­AHAHAH x'D

[cglehman]

That's some funny ass shit man!

[powerXJ]

they should make a Condom for Mr.CIWS PAC

[jonahmelancon]

Damn!!! I need to add this to my Christmas list

[midnamechip]

I want one really bad

[minorpayne23]

when the flames out the barrel is enough to torch some one, you know you have a bad ass gun

[Fightrec]

39 ufos thougth fuck this shit im hyper spacing the fuck away

[clorox140]

Fuck yea this is what I get to work with when I go to the Navy. Im psyched!

[BigRolando]

@clorox140 do you have that nec in your contract if you dont pray to get it. if you do get it prep for lots of maintenance

[clorox140]

@BigRolando Well not this piece of equipment exactly but im going in FC

[HachiZenki]

If you're on a carrier pray you don't hear that coz then you know the Aegis didn't do their job.

[arvelos76]

They are cleaning the barrels with tracers before leaving the port... its a blue fluorescent box with 120 tracers in it. You cant miss it.

[sirtom68]

I bought my girlfriend one of these to carry in her purse.

[coffee484]

I make that noise everytime I take a shit lol

[XDarkLightNinjaX1]

@coffee484 lololololololololololololololo­lolololololollolololololol

[NeilLB7]

When all else fails...and the Chinese missles get through...this thing and its radar top hat is supposed to throw up a wall of lead to explode the missle. The way Obama is running our military...we'll need these.

[baldwin4200]

i wana see this VS airplane with no one in the plane of course

[Torggaddon]

Scary as shit when they decide to test fire these things without warning.

[wildmandazza]

sounds like a good experience...buzzsaw rockconcert :-)

[Lionwolf0777]

Remember on one of our gunshoots our forward CIWS was getting ready to fire off a 100rd burst. I didn't get my second earplug in on time and I couldn't hear anything for quite a while. Good thing I was off duty that day. Sounds like a buzzsaw rockconcert......really loud, you're really deaf, and you won't forget the experience.

[mosprime2]

EXTERMINATE!!!

[bladerboy201]

That would suck to get hit in the face by.

[goldpegasusfantasy]

OH YEAH MAN

[bnkrmike29]

air would be scared for it's life

[RainbowManification]

I love how it just goes back into a state of dormacy as if nothing ever happened.

[ILuvToBreakdance]

This USS Kitty Hawk Is Too Weak To Be A Kitty

[peprikarox]

EVERYBODY OUT OF HE POOL NOW!!

[Hunkola]

Reminds me of my big black dick when it's firing off a load.....

[peprikarox]

@Hunkola TMI and r u gay?

[turborabbit1114]

cut them down!!!

[Greil796]

My teacher has a head shaped like that

[Monkeynuts502]

My dad was in the Navy (ret.), and he had a freind who was doing maininence while on one of these while his ship was docked in Hawaii, it was facing inland, he (the friend) hears a "BRP!" from right behind him and looks up wondering whats happened and doesnt find anything wrong, later ammo count shows two rounds missing.

[Smokeyvette]

@Monkeynuts502 Sorry but I've got to call shenanigans... first of all, if he were that close to it, he would have heard the hydraulic or pneumatic system go active, after that he would hear the barrels spin, and then he wouldn't be able to hear ANYTHING for a few moments. You would definitely know if it fired or not... the best description I've ever heard of this gun firing was that it sounded like an atomic zipper. Besides, we don't pull into ports loaded...

[Monkeynuts502]

@Smokeyvette OK, I believe you, It was just a story I heard, I dont have any knowledge of proper procedure or anything like that, so thanks for clearing that up.

[theaznfishy]

GOOD MORNING!  BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

[pythongunner]

I TOLD YOU WOODCHUCKS TO STOP CHUCKIN MAI WOOD !!!!!

[TankNutJohn89]

Fuck China! USA 4 Ever!!!

[McFaegle]

Seriously. GET. OFF. MY. LAWN!

[SoloWingPixy]

We had land based version at Balad and that friggin thing was crazy loud, and they test fired every week

[krishaas2000]

That will wake the neighbors. HAHA

[donttazemebro3434]

Warning shot.

[Smokeyvette]

I used to love to load this gun and watch it fire from my missile deck...

[kahetel13]

Hi, can i have a set of those to go please?::)

[redq182]

That machine is about 500,000x10^100 times better than the worlds best sharpshooter

[soulassssns]

OUCH!!! I think it just shot down Chinas Carrier destroying missile.

[Wayne2219]

THATS A FUCKING BEAST

[RunwhenyouseeM1]

that would be sick if it shot candy out

[YSBCITTAR]

@RunwhenyouseeM1 or free condoms for the poor...

[ZOCKER1001]

@RunwhenyouseeM1 lol now im thinkin bout someone whos is laying dead at the ground with many chocolate in his head

[MurakumoElite]

@RunwhenyouseeM1

Then this would be Pedobear's ultimate weapon! XD

[miniatureme95]

look what i got for Christmas!!!!!!!!!

[DrD0000M]

R2-D2 is PISSED!!!

[187SicknesS]

so they just put a trash can full of bullets on top of this thing? looks like a lethal conehead.

[MR911paintballa]

a million dollars in 6 seconds

[Breakneckhydra1]

@MR911paintballa Not even close. More like $2,000.

[billy1303]

@MR911paintballa I guess if you think each bullet cost $2222.23 In 6 sec. of fire with that, you would shoot around 450 bullets which comes out to $6750.00

[MR911paintballa]

@billy1303 wow dude could u not tell i wasnt being serious

[billy1303]

@MR911paintballa Yes, I just wanted to solve the math problem and figure out how much it would actually cost in 6 sec of firing it.

[UPGR4D3S]

Everyone OUT OF THE FREAKING WATER!

[cjellwood]

It looks like something out of Sonic the Hedgehog that Dr Robotnik would make

[MainFist]

@cjellwood

Pingas?

[mechinary]

Semper Paratus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jamesdewer]

Can this be used on a surface vessel?

[TuAFFalcon]

@jamesdewer It is used on a surface vessel.

[KCHISMYCREW]

uss KITTY HAWK reall intimidating "terrorist laugh" then bffffffffzzzzaaaaaaa a fucking gun dose work

[pyroman645]

why the fuck is it not on a tank?! :D

[Joelduffy]

@pyroman645

I'd wager a guess that the tank would either slide or go flying from the recoil. :O

[Nater245689]

@pyroman645 Because of it's ammunition consumption and the fact that it's 20mm rounds would be ineffective against other tanks. It's the last line of defense against incoming anti-ship missiles if the Aegis cruisers and destroyers, fighter aircraft, and such fail to intercept them.

[HBSchool]

@Nater245689

How do they load that thing?

[Nater245689]

@HBSchool

Linked rounds are cycled into a drum that is contained within the system. Ammunition loadout is dependent on the version of the Phalanx.

[HBSchool]

@Nater245689

Haha, I don't know why I didn't think of that, thanks.

Final question, what's the big dome, radar or ammo? It seems a tad ironic, given the weapons purpose, and the RCS it gives away. If it's ammo why not have it fed from below deck?
