- Hundreds gathered in the Marinette Marine shipyard on Saturday to see the christening and launch of the U.S. Navy's Freedom-class Littoral Combat Ship, future USS Billings (LCS 15).
The ship's sponsor, Sharla Tester, wife of Sen. Tester (D-MT), broke a bottle of sparkling wine across the bow of the ship before it was launched sideways into Lake Michigan.

Soft sharko bites :3 there was an attempt...

😂😂😂😂
This emoticon gets me everytime! 🤣
Bruh if a poor engineer was fixing somthing in there he was having a significant emotional event
Imagine if the engineer miscalculated and the ship turned over? Oops there goes 1 billion dollars
Not the engineer, but BOI

Isn't that what happened to the h.m.s. victory back in the olden days? In harbor it got launched & then rolled over, they didnt think about ballast & balance.I'm just guessing the ships name, it was in England.
Have you ever heard of the aircraft carrier HMS Formidable
Richard Key I don’t think Victory did, but the Swedish ship Vasa sank like that due to weight distribution and high winds.
That would mean the design was terrible because ships are designed to right themselves. Better that they discover it at launch than in the middle of a storm.
Those slidey things:
"I'm bout to start this boat's whole career"
This does put a smile on my face
US government: I'm about to end this ships whole career
Hold my boat

Imagine if the ship would sunk because of this
Shut the fuq up
Thought the same...

Haha! 😂

I think he was the one who freed ship.
I can't blame him; I'd be doing the same! nobody wants to be standing between the water and *that* rapidly sliding towards you!
It looks so happy bobbing around in the water like that.
Lol fuck yea

Imagine being accidentally locked inside the ship during that
I would enjoy that as long as I held on
It's like a roller coaster without the safety harness.

No biggie, as long as you got your SeaLegs....I remember serving in the navy during high seas your damn near walking on bulkheads with all the rocking and rolling we do.

I just spot that guy
He's the guy who released the ship
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
I understand it would be safety. but safety from what? what could go wrong?
Right? What could that guy possibly do to help by standing in front of 8 million pounds of steel moving downhill? This has to be an OSHA violation of some sort. Looks incredibly dangerous and stupid. If he slipped or tripped, he had maybe 2-4 seconds to get away. If not, splat. That's just so risky, I can't fathom it being a standard practice.

dude was tagging that shit with a permanent marker.
Massive projects like this boggle my mind. The various trade skills involved ... the engineering. Wow.
Imagine if it just sunk. Millions upon millions of dollars literally down the drain.
that guy in the back of the room. you just put the ww2 military vehicle industry in one sentence
Grenherb Its called north korea
that guy in the back of the room Still right at the dock, could be salvaged and possibly refloated.
Should of put littoral instead of literally.
that guy in the back of the room Not a problem at all they will make us pay for a new one lol.
Now that is fucking scary as shit

@Joshua Graham
True, they weren't _literally_ running, but they were _physically_ running. XD
@@Ranstone that's the same thing, how can someone physically run (meaning they're moving their body to run) but also not be doing it literally (which would be moving their body to run)?

How about from the inside of the ship? :o

why the fuck would you put a ship into the water when it doesn't even have a bloody engine in it
it would just be a boat
DHTGK that is the front of the ship:))))), engines are behind :))
I meant why would he think they would launch a ship into the waters when it wasn’t finished building
She was empty
Very high in the water ... Nice footage !
Did you just assume that ships gender!?!
Adam Kendall All ships are female
Read the lore , it seems you haven't.
@@stardude2006 lmao it's not that they're female.
@@stardude2006 It's 2019 and you still that ships should be caged in a binary identity? Personally, I think it should be encouraged that ships be named preferably male and at the very least non-binary.

Lmao I love that game
👏
She’s strong she knocked over that whole ship with a bottle.
lmao
And there's plenty more where that came from
lol the funny thing is that a bunch were actually cancelled, like all new US ship classes
Or more likely they were sunk due to air attack, to which they could not respond, because battleships were obsolete almost as soon as they became popular. The aircraft carrier was the true king of the sea in WW2. You might as well throw "Hood" in there to complete the trifecta of useless, doomed battleships.
Rainer Winkler yamato was sunk by 17 US dive-bomber planes (the small planes not the big ones) and bismarck i dont know what happend to bismarck and US ships are made of good materials and are highly technological hence why they are classed as the most powerful ships in the world
That'd be the funniest shit ever if it just capsized

It happened in India. Not in China

The ship looks great !
So satisfying

Land of cowards? Why make all this equipment when they have no intentions of meeting their enemies face to face?
kickyouinhalf why would you send in troops to face the enemy when you can attack from far away. thats strategy 101
Michael Haynes you sound so salty bud 🤗
kickyouinhalf haha is that your argument sounds like someone's jealous,
land of the enslaved fatties more like.
Because a new warship is exactly what we need right now.
Beautiful vessel! Love the LCS class. Greetings from Canada
They're fucking shit. We call them rock dodgers because they're only fit to hug the coastline. Out at sea they're like a 5yr old walking around a city centre on their own - vulnerable.
Jack Carter What do you think they are used for smartass. Coastal defense
That's all they're fit for.
Jack Carter that’s all they’re meant to do genius
The navy doesn't need ships for coastal defense, at least the way they are deployed now
"Let's launch a ship sideways!"
"What if it doesn't work."
"Eh, 17 billion dollars don't mean nothing to the Pentagon."
You’re an idiot. There’s a reason they do this and it’s perfectly safe.

*This will be titanic 2 looks like*
Always think ships are going to capsize when they side launch them like that
Another thing on the list "Things I didn't know I must have seen"
While not as magnificent as the old way of launching ships, it still kinda makes your heart go. Well done!
They used to launched backwards?
Looks like a Russian flag
More like the third reich
What does?
The person with a white clothes is hella strong, imagine a giant boat was pushed in one hit.
Do I know how they do that 🤦♂️

when the music starts I thought it the people would start singing the Soviet Unions anthem 😂
Tttrue hahaha
It was during the Trump years so the Star Spangled Banner would have been more apropos.
If that ship had toilets I will feel sad for the dude that was in the stall during its release
Say what you want boats are one of mans greatest discoveries....

Wow that ship is truly beautiful, now I see where my tax money went to 👌🏾
5567 5555 it’s not finished yet. When ships launch, normally they don’t even have a full interior yet.

Have you notifed the guy running away from the ship at the bottom of it. I guess he released some mechanism to let the ship to slide once the bottle has been smashed.

John Kang YA BOMBING INNOCENT COUNTRIES FOR OIL MURICAAAAA
Boomsauce XX were you there? Keep quiet kiddo.
God Yeah, I was, so get facts not opinions.
prove it.
God 1. Their economy would have economically collapsed if we were stealing billions of barreled oil. 2. Being reimbursed in oil so we can use our tanks, helicopters, etc. is not stealing, it's trading. 3. The U.S. has more oil than anyone in the world, we dont need to steal oil. 4. Trump is even talking now about being reimbursed more since we were there fighting their war they couldn't fight themselves. 5. There's no reliable sources saying the U.S. stole oil.
Who else was curious to be on that ships deck when it was sliding down those ramps into the water?

@@williamrobinson7555 he didn't say they did. He was commenting that the money that went to this warship could be used for government subsidies like free college. If we removed oil subsidies alone that would more than do it but you are the one who called someone else an idiot...

I own that ship it’s my yacht I’ve been paying my quarterly payments
I own you.
Hmm a US Navy Ship is your yacht hmm
I'm sure you had the 1 billion+ dollars this ship costed to build
Is it just me or does anyone else rlly wanna be on that ship whilst it launches 😂
Just you
Plottwist the ship sunk 1 week after
Why are people acting like this is something new? This has been done for hundreds of years
Muffinkakes1 its a simble of America's might
donald shooting videos no it’s not, it’s one ship of their vast navy, every single navy for the last 70 years launches ships this way...
Building a big ship like that takes a long time, why would they not celebrate? Do you think that they should have groaned like zombies.

breaking news, new navy ship launched a week ago.had to be towed back to port due to engine problems
*New Chinese Naval ship broke down
HaloLoreNerd
Nope, but nice attempt.
Another few hundred million down the drain for another useless ship. Think about how the money used to build this could have been given to schools, to hospitals, to rebuild our infrastructure. Instead the money was used to build a tool of war, not to mention the millions it has cost to be maintained with a crew.
In a. Vary much smaller scales we make boats like that in the philippines by the thousands but made of marine plywoods
And powered by kubota yanmar and mitsubishi engines as well as water pumps and motorcycle engines
I’d like to get in that ship while it’s being launched so I could have a fun ride
The ship was not launched into Lake Michigan, but rather into the Menominee River which quickly flows into the 95 mile long Green Bay which then joins Lake Michigan. There is another ship-building yard in Sturgeon Bay, WI, just a short 25-mile boat ride away from Marinette.
Yepper, Marinette Marine in Marinette, WI. The other side of the river is Menomonee, MI.
A very short distance downstream is Lake Michigan's Bay of Green Bay and they conduct the sea trails of those ships on fresh water
