Yankee Sub Brief Super Cut

34 Boats in 10 years - That alone was an incredible achievement.
To be fair, for every new Yankee going to sea, the Americans put out a new
Sturgeon-class to potentially hunt it down.
What an incredible time that must been to work in shipbuilding.

Congratulations! This is apparently “the most boring thing “”my wife”” has ever heard! I found it fascinating. Maybe these Yankees weren’t very good?

Army Vet here, 10 years with Field Artillery and counting. Amazing videos and lovely briefings, would love to see something similar on earlier examples of submarines or even some of the weirder examples like a brief of the WW2 Japanese i-400 aircraft carrying submarines. Continue the excellent and informative content!

Hi Sub, thanks for the Time ⏲️ Machine lookback.

👍

We made them go broke deciphering white noise with cable taps, during the cold War!! Lmfao & that was my contribution during the cold war!!

At 35.61 I think you meant the missile was a 500KT warhead not a 500 Megaton warhead.

Sergey Preminin deserves every one of those awards. He saved countless lives and the Atlantic Ocean itself from radioactive contamination. May his soul rest in peace.
Also, can you post links to all of the photos you use for these videos?

isnt that Yankee stands for Afrikan Americans and Charlee stands for Vietnamese during Vietnam War

Tracked a Yankee summer of 85’ in EastPac.

I wonder how many people John Anthony Walker got killed. He sold this country and our Navy down the drain when he provided the codes to the encryption machines taken off of the USS Pueblo for 18 damn years.

A horizontally stored vertically launched missile on a rotary launcher? Wow! I had never heard that detail, nice brief Jive.

I suspect the R-27 is 9.6m long, not diameter.

Can you launch a ICBM horizontally? Sure, why would you want to?

Russians:
I paid for those R-31 missiles, I am gonna use all of them.

That engineer may have developed back problems... from holding up all those medals.

Ohhh a famous cold war sub Ill just start watching... and... get a second drink... and a third, all with a child's grin thinking of Jame Bond films, HFRO and cold waters.

9.6m diameter missiles, are you sure that's correct?

I'm willing to bet those "special purpose" subs built between 74 and 81 but no service record were related to a Soviet version of Project Azorian but they stopped when they found out the Americans got to it first

Seems getting the Order of Lenin was no joke, you have to lead some seriously crazy projects... O_o

Really interesting. Thankyou!

Using Freon to put out a fire I can’t believe it Freon passes over a flame turns into phasing gas that’s the poison gas they used in World War I I am not sure that’s the proper way to spell it

Man oh man, one disaster after another!!! What a low class Navy! How many nuclear incidents can one country have??

Just wanted to thank you for your decades of service and for your fantastic research and videos.

The term "Special Purpose" is getting used a lot. It has me intrigued.

That is all we need, the launch keys given to the political officers. The men on the front lines in ww2 hated these idiots. On both sides. Mostly completely divorced from reality as a good Communist should be.

I guess that was a 500kT rather than a 500MT warhead on the SS-N-17. ;-)

Question: would it be feasible to put small hydrophones on a type of periscope to listen for subs or ships in a different thermal layer?

500MT warhead can’t be right. The largest warhead ever tested was “only” 50MT.

if 1MT is big then think of the 9 MT warhead that was on the titan 2 missiles.

papa sub could do 51.4 mph underwater. that's crazy fast. think of that the next time you're in cheat deep water and try to run then you'll get a good idea how hard 51 mph must be to do.

There is sub with all war heads sunk 😑😑😱😵 communists are awful lot 😤

@sub brief - Yankee II - 500MT warhead, really? Wasnt that supposed to be 500KT? Believe 100MT thermo-nuclear is one of the biggest in the world.

Sorry this is probably a stupid question and you’ve probably answered this but the designation KS-### are we talking deployment of naval Spetsnaz or special as in used say to test a new reactor configuration or a new communication feature? Oh and a very interesting lecture as always

Have you ever thought of having a Russian expatriot sonarman on a cast?

“yankees🇺🇸 class”xd

I always get a laugh when they claim reactor was cut out and placed into storage....... yeah they dump them into the ocean off Norway where they are safely stored on the sea bottom .

What a great piece Aaron, very well done, those two hours and a half hours flew by.

Very informative, and great to have this in one piece of media for future generations to watch and resource.
