Terry Winters

I see its my favorite time of the month again. Sub brief day!

Both Baffin Bay and a considerable damage picture are show on the last slide of K-279, but without explanation.

I nominate the Arleigh Burke for a ship brief! 😀

Thanks Jive, I enjoyed this one very much! Can we get a video on that India class submarine, or make it part of a video that covers multiple classes if there's not enough content to warrant an exclusive video ex: NR-1, & other noncombat subs.

As someone who calls the Cape home. I never knew about their ability to siphon power in an emergency at the Wharf. Cool to know my local hospital is directly linked up like that.

Fully expect the video to be 5 minutes and than end with Forrest Gump clip being spliced in "Thats all I got to say about that"'

"Sorry Because of its privacy settings, this video cannot be played here." Is patreon glitching or do I need a higher tier?

That is such a cool relationship to have with your Russian counterpart on twitter! Keep Representing Murica! :D Steller Brief Btw! It was a pleasure to listen to and watch! I was taken back by has fast this was out! This will be an awesome and rewarding series to watch. We appreciate your hard work! Your enthusiasm is contagious in this video! Thinking back to your improved kilo brief, was that 117 db at one yard for the improved kilo or original kilo?

K-171, the TV Show of submarines. "But wait, there's more!"

Mark Henderson

excellent overview as usual. Any rough idea on Delta III or Delta IV? Really looking forward to these. thanks again.

Seahour

He will be going through the entire Delta Series1-4 :D It will take a couple months :D

Seahour

Zumwalt: its expensive, its stealthy, the end. lol xD

The video is hosted from Vimeo, and if there are any access issues to be found, you may want to use a VPN to bypass any access limitations. This also goes for some YouTube video access as well as some movies.

Man these Delta's sure like ice with their vodka!

Whitzwolf

All of those periods where those Delta's seem to have perfect records really makes me wonder if they actually did...certainly there must be many casualties never recorded

Why it took them 2 decades to understand two crew method, and doing the high tempo op? Is it possible that the previous reactors were not that efficient, and that was the reason, it was not just about the crew? And VM-4 reactor really revolutionized there SSBN force. Aaron, is it possible that you able to go into a little bit detail of VM-4 reactors?

Andrew Blanchard

Thanks for the great brief Jive. Minor note: when talking about throw weight of the missile complex they probably mean warhead bus weight to rated range, not excess buoyancy of the missile underwater.

Ben Dean

Really enjoy these lectures Jive, I would like to see more cutaway drawings and in construction pictures with you going through more of the design aspect of the sub. If you have the info of course. Maybe something to roll into the later Delta lectures would be a side-by-side comparison between the different versions etc.

Aaron Amick

You are right. Good catch. I'll make a note of that in the Delta-II Brief.

David Matsche

Curious about the Mike and Oscar classes now.

Thrall

Man, I didn't know russia had SSBNs and fitting drydocks in 1798 ! Advanced stuff right there ! (40:14 ;)

Adrian Johansson

US Naval intelligence when they learned of the missile range. "What 9000 there is no way that can be right !"

Aaron Amick

not sure what the question is. The single-warhead missile range of the SS-N-8 Mod 2 is ~9000 km.

Hungry Box

The 1 ton throw weight you mentioned, refers to the RV/bus on top of the missile body...an SLBM weighs considerably more than a Mk-84
