Wow, I bought a bootleg Roman candle on the internet that worked better than this thing!

@malamagr they put a cover on the nozzle to protect it so water wouldn't get sucked up into it as it came out of the water and it worked. air alone didn't work apparently

Trident D-5 is something like 140 successful launches in a row since this first failure. In fact it's the most successful large ballistic missile. Ever. Suck it haters.

I remember when this happened. It was a big deal, the 1st launch of the T2 and they showed Soviet spy trawlers on the scene. They had to postpone the launch because a trawler got too close to the sub. The next day they said water pressure on a nozzle had damaged a gimbal, the air bubble didn't protect the nozzle as it was supposed to. They tried it again just a couple of days later, and it worked.
