Filming of Battleship movie from aboard the Missouri.wmv
The Movie Battleship was filmed using footage of the USS Missouri being towed out the Pearl Harbor channel to just off Waikiki and Honolulu on January 8, 2010. These images were taken after the helicopter and hydrofoil cameras had already zoomed by. During those times, we aboard had to "tuck inside", as in no personal cameras sticking out, spoiling the shot.

USS Missouri being refloated in Pearl Harbor drydock #4. It took 2 1/2 months to repair her hull, miscellaneous rust, some new hull plates, new$$ dehumidifying system and other issues. For the refloat, 700 people, including VIP's, MMA founders, ship's crew, volunteers, and over 100 military to be reenlisted during the trip out of dry dock and back to our Pearl Harbor pier. I am very grateful to...

A quick visit to the USS Missouri in dry dock, early January 2010. This is just video of the aft end, the screws, rudders, keel. You can really get a size perspective with the people walking around underneath.

Navy volunteers unloading a 40' container of teak wood, to be used for a new deck on the battleship USS Missouri. The teak delivery was made while the ship was in dry dock, fall of 2009.
Battleship USS Missouri entering Pearl Harbor drydock

USS Missouri entering Pearl Harbor drydock #4. It took 1 hour to tow her to the dock, and 7 hours to guide her in and set her on the keel blocks. A brow could not even be attached to let us off the ship until she was hard on the blocks. P.S. I am very grateful to be allowed to be aboard, and honored to take part in this chapter of the USS Missouri's history. God bless America. Anybody who has a...
Battleship USS Missouri tow to dry dock

The battleship USS Missouri being towed to Pearl Harbor dry dock for 3 months of repairs, Oct. 14, 2009.
I saw battleship new Jersey in drydock on April 21st. I posted pictures and videos on my channel
Can’t wait to see the New Jersey this beautiful really nice work looks like brand new
It's awesome seeing the amount of work engineer's and trades took to preserve the heritage of this ship truly one of kind. If possible you should ensure this ship is fully operational under her own power. Bring the past back to life and allow future Americans to feel the accomplishments of what americas about god bless and good work everyone.
Hopefully in early 2024, we’ll see New Jersey in dry dock!
She needs to be back in the fleet. We paid too much to have a museum made out of her. Especially when she is more than battle effective Especially now in the age of aluminum ships.
They are all beautiful ladies and need to be kept up. I am happy to see the USS MISSOURI in drydock and see the restoration work on her. I may never get to see her but my father served on her. I feel that these are the most beautiful battleships that were ever built. I would have liked to have seen the USS PENNSYLVANIA restored instead of being used as a target ship. She was the only sister to the USS ARIZONA. I am happy to see these mighty ships in our possession. Long may they wave the flag of the United States.
12 yrs 3 ships MM2 thanks you, new Sub
It's got to be the sexiest ship ever made it looks gorgeous with that shaped Hull. I bet if checks were made even 31 yrs later, if you had a boatload of fuel it would power up and possibly even do a world tour... Now that would be something very special indeed.
3rd comment on the video finally visited her yesterday what an absolute treat.

just imagine this thing turning the Bismarck or Yamato into minced meat!
Thank you "Mighty Mo"for protecting my life, freedom, rights and country 🗽🇺🇲⚖️.
What a majestic old lady! I love the Iowa Class Battleships, and I know some may disagree, but I think we need to have such a capable warship commissioned in the USN. A Battleship Strike Group off each coast. Missiles are very effective weapons but those 16”/50 guns are a projection of power unlike any other.
You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but the Aircraft Carrier was the death knell for the Battleship ship type. They're not going to come back.
@@patrickwheatley2693 Carriers & Battleships coexisted for quite some time actually. And effectively so. Both being utilized as flag ships for commanders of the various battle/strike groups. If anything made the Battleship veer toward obsolete, it was box launched cruise missiles. Which ironically were installed on the USS New Jersey (BB-62) herself (among several other classes) during the Gulf War.
@@OldStreetDoc the Iowa class ships were brought out of the mothball fleet because the range of their primaries was far enough to inflict a lot of damage on Saddam Hussein's infrastructure. Sure, there were some noteworthy battles involving Battleships after 1941, but if the sinking at Taranto in 1940 wasn't enough proof, the IJN used six Carriers to knock three Battleship divisions out of service in a single day in December of 1941.
Space Cruiser Missouri. Star Blazers Argo in live action. Super Cool
Please put these girls back in Service...
At 50yrs old I have never been to an Ocean from near Chicago... Never then seen any bigs ships,, EVER. It is a dream to actually see giant ships someday. Even a cruise or cargo container ship. I really have no idea how big they can be ☮️
Gay
cool
I don't care that the Battleships aren't really all that useful in today's Naval combat picture...I still want to see them still in service even if only in a ceremonial capacity.
Thank you for posting! My father served on the Missouri from 1944 - 1953 he had lots of stories. 👍
Thank you Mighty Mo and all those who have served on you, or worked for you through all the years. You are a source of great joy and pride to this American heart!
Tell them Missourans ta appreciate that thing, 'cause we in West 'By God' Virginia are still trying to figure out a way ta get our namesake on top of the Mountain State! 🤣👍
WOW! It's Ginormous!
I'd like to try one of those propellers on my pontoon boat..
As an anchor? 🙃🙃
that actually looks like a pretty short draft, compared to other BB's I can see why it could sustain 33 knots, and get up even faster when pushed to the limit.
The New Jersey holds the title of the fastest battleship ever made, granted this was before all the heavy modernization was added and after they removed all the obsolete AA weapons so it was the perfect situation for a top speed run. They’re pretty quick pieces of engineering these iowas, shame they’re not still used.
I'd love to set foot on an Iowa one day. I was able to crawl all over, in, and through the USS Texas on a hard hat tour and even she is huge. The last WWI dreadnought still in existence. But when you compare her size to the Iowa class she looks like light cruiser. (Iowa class is roughly 300 feet longer!!)
You think Texas is small compared to Iowa, take a look at IJN Mikasa, the infamous Japanese battleship preserved in Yokosuka Japan, and the last Pre-Dreadnought battleship.
Wow!
Glorious ship.
Cher turned back time on this massive vessel. 🇺🇸🇦🇺🇺🇸🇦🇺 🕊💕🕊
They’re a massive BOAT!!! 😳😃😃 Magnificent ship. 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇦🇺🇺🇸🇦🇺
I wish we still had ships like this in Britain. The majority of our historical warships ended up at the bottom of the sea or at the scrappers yard.
It's a shame too (but a very expensive undertaking), considering that there is only one "Royal Navy" in service. That's a testament to their global impact over the centuries. Now where's that Rum ration at?! 😅👍
We here in Washington state really miss her. Beautiful ship!
This makes me so proud to have Served in the Navy. I would have Given anything anything to have Served my country aboard her.The Ship the flags flying makes me Extremely proud of my fellow Service men and women . What A honor to be aboard her.. My country my flag I love this N Reed U S N

She's the one they sign a peace agreement on with japan at the end of ww2
Was no peace agreement was a surrender
Well what would you do after they leveled two cities ? Whistle dixie??
The missouri
The navy should keep some of the bbs sea worthy
And just think they had plans to build bigger ones.
Seems like a brand new ship ready to launch her first voyage.
You mean last?
Why?
She's so beautiful!
Would like to see a drone view
You see how big things makes us happy
And those screws will never turn again. The end of an era.
A pleasure to hear nautical vocabulary used in this clip, i.e. yard bird. Most documentaries are marred by inaccurate terminology, something as simple as calling the bow/cutwater the front. How many know that the Engineering Department is responsible for the underwater hull, not the Deck Department? Thanks.
Good to see my house is being taken care of: 6th Division 87/90 The last time she was in Dry-Dock was in Long Beach, that was a chore. I'm surprised they went to this expense for what is a nonessential vessel which isn't being utilized. I think they still utilize Old Ironsides as a training vessel and for events, be realy cool to see Mo utilized in the same manner... aweful expensive though.
The navy did not dry dock this ship. The museum that owns the ship dry docked it, and they are obligated to do so to keep the ships hull in a safe and presentable condition
@@Texassince1836 Yeah... if I understand the process correctly, such vessels are "donated" with numerous conditions and clauses that must be adhered to, which fall under Historic Preservation. This is one of the reasons why numerous vessels are not docked at Naval Bases when utilized for tourism. My ship, because of her historrical significance, is one of the few exceptions.
The right hand gun barrel from Turret #2 when Japan signed the surrender is on display in NorCal. Its up on top a hill at Battery Townsley on the coast North of the Golden Gate Bridge. There were a pair of 16 inch shore batteries there protecting the entrance to the San Francisco Bay. Gun barrel #386 is on display up there.
10 years after posting, it shows up in my recommended.
For anyone wondering why they towed it instead of running their engines. Only the navy is allowed to run the original engines on any navy ship wich is a museum today.
Well done. Bravo bravo. What a Classy Lady. I am so proud of Her.
Never realized she has 2 4 bladed and 2 5 bladed screws! Pretty neat!
