Run of the mill target practice. The climax is when the young officer says, "The gun is jammed. We don't know why this happens, but we'll have to go on deck and look at it." I can't imagine why the Canadian Navy would have allowed that bit of film to get off the ship. Another gem is when the gun crew doesn't want to fire the weapon. I could imagine the laughs Russian sailors would be having while reading the captions. Aside from the sloppy uniforms, beer guts, systems failing, and crews not wanting to fire weapons, all is well in the Navy of the Great White North. I am convinced that the Canadian Navy believes that it will never be in a major conflict, so what is the point. It is amazing to me how different Canada's military is from the U.S. Granted, things go wrong, but it is surely a different world in the U.S. military. Some pluses. The EOD team and Helo crews seemed professional. I am happily surprised that the Canadians still have air refueling capability. I find the F-18s to be a bit odd in a military that lacks aircraft carriers but I also find it surprising that a country that once had the third largest Navy in the world now has nothing bigger than a frigate.

It’s not easy

I was a sailor on the INS SAAR missle carrier. I think the general idea of the exercise was to see if non navale weapons could sink a ship. 20mm aircraft rounds are a joke. One harpoon missle or one torpedo are more than enough for the job. We actually shot one missle without an explosive warhead at a target ship and it just went through it like butter. By the way, there was at least one naval missle battle I know of that took place in 1973 between Israeli and Syrian navy ships.

Great show, thank you.

Actually there have been real naval battles since 1945. Maybe Canada wasn't involved but the US Navy has been. The last major sea battle was with Iran in 1988 when we sank or destroyed 8 Iranian ships in a 9 hour battle that saw Iran give up.

It's always a sad day to watch the ship you proudly served on slip beneath the waves. At least its a better way to go,instead of being scrapped.😭😭 My ship, the USS Concord AFS5, met the same fate during SINKEX2012 off Hawaii, but she was sunk with a torpedo by the HMCS Victoria. 😢 RIP USS CONCORD AFS5 You will live in our hearts forever.😢🇺🇲

Kully Killy, unless the armor was examined after the exercise to see how it held up, it had no bearing on this exercise. Obviously the missile fired did some damage, but considering that it hit an empty ship above the waterline, it most certainly didn’t sink the ship. And as the ship had also been entirely gutted before the exercise, there wasn’t anything left that could really burn either. The real damage came from the 5” and 3” guns that put numerous holes in her at the waterline. With all those hatches removed and left wide open, she didn’t have a chance. But the exercise proved absolutely NOTHING. They would’ve gotten the same results from an old barge. At the beginning they talked about how hard these ships would be to sink because they’ve got so many compartments. It doesn’t matter how many compartments there are if all the hatches are left open. So the exercise was a complete waste of time and money. It proved nothing. If you really want to see how well a ship can hold up, close all those hatches, give it power so her pumps can run, and bring all her defensive weapons on line so she can maneuver AND COUNTER the incoming threats. The Sea Sparrow missile might have been shot out of the air by CIWS, and hitting a ship that’s moving with guns isn’t nearly as easy as hitting one at anchor. Without a doubt, the submarine stood the best chance of causing any real damage. I’ve yet to see a Sinkex yet that actually proved a thing ... other than a floating object will sink if you put holes in it that allow the water to enter.

Now I kinda know how the sailors on the Bismarck must have felt. She was finished with a couple of torpedoes also. A couple dozen cheap drones on the Heiron to act as enemy fire would have added a new level of urgency to the attacking ships. Who knows the Heiron might have scored some hits. Would have been a great exercise for damage and fire control. We don't fight battles when everything is hunky dory.

I was the TAO aboard USS CURTS during the SINKEX, and one of the planners for Exercise Trident Fury. We were only allowed to use inert rounds (not High EX), as to not sink the the ship immediately, so as many platforms could target her as possible. There were no “explosions” as much as dust when the shells hit, as everything that could catch fire or be toxic was abated from the ship. Had we been fragmentary or hi explosive rounds it would have been over too soon -- especially with USS Shoup lobbing 5in shells.

Pretty impressive display of pointblank shooting against a drifting defenseless hulk...once the guns and missiles finally started working. 'Might not have been so easy if the Huron had been underway without compromised internal watertight integrity and while returning fire. In that case the sub would have had to do the job instead to reduce casualties. Those surface ships would have never come within range to dish out the shellacking they did with their pea-shooters if they were under fire themselves. Likewise, the aircraft would have had to deal with sea sparrows and a phalanx gun themselves. The Huron would have been sunk for sure, but would probably have dished out a lot of casualties, perhaps sunk one or more of its attackers if a surface attack had been attempted and might have even shot down aircraft. IMO exercises like this are great to work on fleet cooperation and test weapons to get out the unanticipated kinks as found with the Regina. Beyond that they indicate little about what would transpire in actual combat.

This just shows how the hull floating high in the water will take random damage.

The Japanese know the fastest way to do it.

CAG Hotshot what do you mean many didn’t perform as designed. A 20mm would never sink a ship unless the ship is made of wood. The missile had a misfire and then worked fine after. The sub never got to test it’s torpedo but it showed a video of how a ship gets sinked by a torpedo. The only thing I saw was one of the cannons not firing and then the cwis not locking on the ship. But the cwis was never designed to aim for ship. It was for missiles, and planes. Not a ship. That’s why they had to manually control it. Either way the missile did its job and the 76 as well. Everything else wasn’t ever gonna sink that shit. Even in the state it was in.

I'm surprised that the largest cannon the destroyer carries is only 75mm. I would have thought something comparable to a Paladin's 155mm artillery shell would be more appropriate.

What a great video

Navy has the fitness levels of an office IT dept. How is that acceptable?

@likiliki93

That’s about the level of fitness required to serve aboard a ship. There’s no real physical rigors on ship’s anymore since most everything is autonomous or far too great for individuals. That’s why it’s acceptable. In the digital age the private sector has much greater incentives versus the Navy. Therefore we can’t afford to turn away great, willing minds due to being a little overweight or physically out of shape.

@@likiliki93 And I understand that logic, however I see some problems with having such fat and physically undisciplined sailors. Physical fitness is important because it helps you stay mentally alert, for longer periods of time. Harsh training is also a crucible of humility and strength and discipline. And in the rare circumstance they go down, you can imagine why fitness would matter. Simply put, out-of-shape but brilliant soldiers, are inferior to in-shape brilliant soldiers.

Saxon Israel The minimum push-ups, sit-ups, and 1.5 mile run required to remain in the Navy is still much higher than a large majority of people in America are able to do. If we make it even harder, those brilliant minds are gone to the private sector. I understand what you’re saying, but I can’t explain how long of hours we sometimes work in the Navy along with the mental fatigue of just being isolated from everyone you care about. Also, physical fitness plays a very minimal role in an abandon ship situation. If we got sunk by a torpedo, everyone is dead no amount of strength can help you. If we run aground and sink, then land must be near! If we’re sinking, the life rafts automatically deploy. There’s just no slightly probable situations I can think of where physical fitness is going to play an important role in survival at sea. I’m probably wrong, but having served on multiple ships in my time in, (while being in great shape, btw), I’ve accepted that death is all that awaits if our ship is sunk in battle.

@@likiliki93 Yes sir I think you make fair points. I would suggest that the whole system needs to be reworked to make sure the men aren't overburdened. Fitness, although hard to muster up the will to get started, quickly relieves a lot of stress, depression, anxiety, and loneliness. Again, if it is so impractical to exercise sailors in fitness, which I agree it is, I think that means that the current system is flawed. Thank you for your insight.

A much more realistic test would have been achieved if all the compartments were sealed; i think it could have withstood hours of shooting at it with the minor Canadian guns. I served aboard the U.S.S. New Jersey. Nuff said

I loved the Idea. However, they should have set the Destroyer up to follow its human commands wirelessly allowing it to defend while using Blank offensive in defensive strategies measures to fend off attackers. Id of used the exsplosives in Defense on the destroyer and if selected by attacking teams. Also, remote any emergency handlings it can utilize w/o sweat n blood. This would be Pricey but the data acquired would be priceless., and film it to utilize the public’s curiosity in a way of a challenge to create a source of revenue to cut some cost of this epic showdown never before seen by the public eyes.

Jamming of a gun isn't good news in a war scenario. Hopefully, this exercise gives the navy a lot of what to expect in those circumstances. Very interesting.

What did i watch? Close the doors and bulkheads! Welding them open or removing them?? SO you wanted it to sink fast? I don't get it. And that "camera" on ship.

0:53 That's the worst CIWS sound effect i've ever heard.

Love those looped CGI effects....lol

wow

As a US Navy Vet, this was hard to watch, but not for the obvious emotional reasons. As any US sailor with their ESWS certification would also know, thinking anything short of the largest gun (76mm i believe) is a waste of ammo. I know they had to play it up for the documentary, but the Sparrow, CWIS and 5 inch gun did NOTHING to that ship, as that’s not what they are designed to do. Plus they were firing 32mm and .60 machine guns at it. Those might as well been tooth picks. Lastly, you have a CD-18 Hornet, and only give it a Gatling gun? Are you kidding? That’s not gonna do anything. As a former sea dog myself, this documentary is slightly embarrassing to those who know anything about these weapon systems.

Nothin beats watching government personnel vaporize the citizens tax dollars.
