The FBI questioned Tom Clancy regarding his technical knowledge he shared following “The Hunt For Red October”’s printing. Clancy provided open sources for all data. Remember: that was published before widespread public Internet. The man was an aggressive thinker, tenacious, learner, and a master storyteller. His works are peerless.

My first Clancy book was Executive Orders. That was a BIG book. I was hooked. I immediately followed it up by Hunt for Red October and went down the line. Amazing series. Unfortunately the Jack Ryan series on Amazon really dropped the ball, though I do love Krazinski.

The shark-like black profiles of the Backfires against the lightening sky...chilling.

"Red Storm Rising" was once of the best books I've ever read.

To the publishers, including the audio book publisher - I purchased this book in paper and audio format on the strength of this episode. I've read this a dozen times and given copies to several teenagers wanting to experience cold war fiction. Let this be - what a shockingly, chillingly, intro to some of the greatest war fiction That Could Have Been, ever.

This is nightmare fuel for an electronic warfare operator.

The original narration was good to begin with, but the added value is priceless, the music choice, the sound effect and the edit are nothing less than breathtaking, it is a war movie without the nuisance of the actors, fast paced, intense industrial modern combat... amazing work 💯❤👌👍

This is a masterpiece

Tom got a number of technical details wrong here: I am a retired Ph.D. Computer/Aerospace Engineer with two different large American defense contractor Missile Systems companies that worked on both the AIM (54, above block 3) and the Aegis System. I also worked pretty closely with the Naval Warfare College in reviewing their doctrine for these weapons platforms in this environment of sailing multiple carrier groups into the north Atlantic/Baltic Sea to take on the USSR on its northern flank during a western European ground war. I love the Clancy novels, with Red Storm being my favorite, but there is no way the F-14's would launch their battle winning AIM 54's at radar signatures that early in a real fleet attack scenario. It was always assumed that the first airborne attacks by the Russians would be decoys and the AIM's needed to insure they had real backfire bomber targets before unleashing a major strike and using up all their 54's. Also, in all of our assumed full contact simulations against back fire's and the KH-22 and real-world tests we had the AEGIS kill ratio, when in auto mode at >85%....60% is unrealistically low. The biggest technical oops in this Clancy battle dialogue is in stating the Tu-22's (Backfire Bomber) anti ship missiles (KH-22) had radar homing capabilities. It did not until the 23 derivative which wasn't field until earlier in this century. The KH-22 was principally gyroscopically navigated and not terribly accurate against moving targets (the KH22 was nuclear warhead capable so accuracy wasn't terribly important in that case, but with its shaped charge conventional warhead it needed a direct hit to do significant damage.

All things considered he was working with Larry Bond and some of there technical data was from a board game. I believe he talked about keeping his information declassified from a publishers standpoint in a couple of interviews. In my opinion Clancy from what I can extrapolate from a number of parts from this book was trying to convey a few lessons we might want to expect come time for a big war. There will be complacency, there will be ignorance, there will be casualties and expect the unexpected. Fudging the technical aspect of a lot of it I from a fictional writers perspective is a forgivable sin.

I was in the Navy in the 80's when Red Storm rising and Hunt for Red October came out. Loved reading both of them while we were deployed, although Red Storm Rising was my favorite and up to that time the biggest book I'd ever read cover to cover! I think it was over 600 pages if I remember, that's a lot for a 20 year old sailor. Thanks for creating this video, really brought back memories of the book.

Red Storm Rising is one of my top 5 book reads. I served in the US Navy from 74 to 84 as an OS on CG's / DDG's / ADM staff and Flt Tra Gru. Of course reading the book I could, as every one else, visualize the events as told in the book. However, the computer simulations given here really take me back to my sailing days !

Over 30 years since I first became absorbed in Red Storm Rising- magnificent work bringing it to life like this! I think Tom Clancy himself would be impressed.

Red Storm Rising is my favorite Clancy book, even over Red October. I've listened to audio book versions, but this is the first time I've listened to an audio reading synchronized with computer simulated battle action. I must say it's an immersive experience. Quite enjoyable and gripping. My only (minor) complaint/feedback is that the sound effects and music come very close to drowning out the narration. Thanks for the video!

Gives me chills thinking what it would be like deployed on an aircraft carrier like that. You ship goes to general quarters (battle stations) in the middle of the ocean unexpectedly. The all the aircraft are being launched off the carrier to help defend (and to help prevent fires if the missiles get to you) Sudden unexpected hard turns. Watching your missile escort ship dump it's entire battery of air defense missiles. The rest of the less capable ships start doing the same a few moments later. Feeling the ship vibrate as the anti missile chain guns start shooting in a last ditch attempt to shoot down as many as possible. That would be the moment you knew that your side just lost. Only mere moments before a supersonic missile detonated inside you ship.

Having listened to this a dozen times and read it another dozen, I'm most happy with how well the audiobook itself cleaned up. It sounds so clean not on my old phone.

Incredible work! It was riveting to hear Clancy's narrative while seeing it play out in DCS. Please do more.

I'm retired now, but while I was working I took a 3-year break from working in security to work for B Dalton Bookseller in Atlanta working at both the Five Points and North Druid Hills Road locations. During that time I became a Tom Clancy fan, and I remember once we started with The Hunt for Red October we couldn't keep it in stock same for Red Storm Rising it would literally just vanish off the shelf it didn't have to be pushed it had its own momentum. You know a novel is good when wives and girlfriends are coming in to buy it for their husbands and boyfriends and then come back to buy the next book that's how you understood this man could write. He is literally The Godfather of what we now know as the Techno Thriller genre in publishing. You know a man's writing is good, When government officials want to interview you about how did you know all of this. And you never served in the military or an intelligence community. That is the power of researching your material when you want to write something.

Fantastic....don't stop!!!! I've been reading this book on and off since the early 90's, great to finally "see" it!

I read this book several years ago while in OSUT, airborne school, and RASP at Fort Benning. It really gave a good picture of what war with the Soviet Union would have looked like. These videos really bring it to life.

Can't thank you enough for this. Beautifully done.

Have been a fan of Tom Clancy novels, have all of them in paperback and never have I been so attentive to his real description of battle stations and ongoing situations, wow, a great read and so true to what could happen in case of war, God forbid, but yes fantastically gripping stuff.

I knew a guy who was on P-3 Orion. They were cruising looking for hydrocarbons emitted by a submarine recharging with diesels.

My destroyer on deployment carried a cargo van crammed with gear so as to mimic the carrier group. Our job in this scenario would be distract inbound raid toward us. Glad the evil empire fell apart without seeing if strategy would have worked.

One of my favorite books Clancy every wrote. A masterpiece IMO. This is one that should be turned into a movie. Your work on these chapters is great. Love it. Keep it up.

Red Storm Rising is still my favorite novel after all these years. This video is just awesome. Keep up the amazing work!

Excellent work! I really enjoyed this. I read this book before I joined the Navy. Loved seeing it come to life like this!! Please make more!

Thank you! That chapter always stirred wonder in my mind. Amazing visualization!

I had the honor of serving as an Operations Specialist in CIC on both a cruiser and a destroyer a few years before RSR was published. I can attest to its realism and accuracy. As sophisticated as our sensors and weapons systems were, we were always under threat of being overwhelmed by sheer numbers in an airborne missile attack. I'm thankful that Aegis-type combat systems are now the norm to help prosecute anti-air warfare and protect our sailors on combat units.

TAO, EW: Vampire, Kitchen. Bearing 240. Correlates to track 8420. AIR, TAO: kill track 8420. TAO, AIR: copy kill track 8420, birds away. Happy trails to port.

I started reading Clancy with The Hunt for Red October when it was published in ‘84. I do think that was the only, and I mean ONLY, decent book-to-movie conversion of Clancy’s books. All the rest were crap. I agree that Red Storm Rising was one of his very best, and I still enjoy rereading it occasionally today.

keep this coming!

This is the best🤣 👍✌️👋👋👋👋🇨🇦 Wonderful I hope there's more of this stuff comming

THANK YOU for introducing me to this book! I had heard of it but not in any detail, only a few seconds in I knew I needed to listen at least to this chapter first on audible, I’ve experience so much tension, and because the dcs community has film makers that can easily put some hollywood movies to shame, I have no doubt this video is gonna make the experience even greater, i already got a little pit of dread in my stomach knowing whats gonna happen

This book is an old friend... what you guys have achieved is simply amazing. Thanks very much and look forward to more please.

This was amazing! I absolutely love Red Storm Rising and I cannot wait for more! I would recommend trying some of Clancy's other books like Executive Orders or The Bear and The Dragon
