Torpedo Hit video: a bit OT

cmdrk · 01-24-07, 02:19 PM

Don't know if this has been passed along before, but check out this video
http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...it+video&hl=en

It's a bit modern day but shows how powerful a torpedo can be.

This one is WW2 footage.

Watch the torpedoed HMS Barham sink.

While these are indeed great videos (although the Barham one is quite common on these forums

), it appears they are in the wrong section. The General Topics section might be a more appropriate place.:hmm:

Yes seen it plenty before its a real exercise done by the aussie navy.

this you can call officially a Depth Charge

This is why I couldn't be a military sailor that works below decks.

That torp hit was scary to watch.. it is amazing how it makes that destroyer look like a toy... amazing power (bit better than the WW2 torps eh? hehe).

And the depth charge.... holy crap, all I could think is thank god the ships pinging me dont have those!

Controlled demolition of old explosives folks, not a deployed DC....

That was a frigate not a destroyer,hardly giant and at one point the narrator refers to it as a battleship!

that vid is at the intro part of sub command too.

And a photo of it was used as "proof" by Hezbollah that they had sunk an Israeli ship in last years Israel-Lebanon conflict.
