H1MIN: RUHRSTAHL X-4 WIRE GUIDED MISSILE
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ค. 2021
- The Rurhstahl X-4 was a liquid fueled, wire guided, air-to-air missile in development by Germany in WWII. While too late to have any impact, it did provide research into the future development of wire guided missile technology.
By late 1944 about 1,300 missile assemblies had been built, but the factory making the motors had been heavily bombed leaving few motors to be used. Ironically, the Allied bomber formations that these missiles were intended for destroyed the capability of these missiles from reaching Luftwaffe units. - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี

Sad
@@DonVigaDeFierro hey I ever knew that dialog , do u know who is saying that and the original speech ?
That was a great 1 minute and 46 seconds... now back to waiting again.
Same
well theres not much information on those weapons exspecially on the x4
im serching myself for technical details but theres nothing reliable to find on the internet
Great animations as always, and on such an obscure weapon. Great information on this I always wondered how the early prototype guided missiles worked
This is happiness in 1 minutes

Its amazing how fast technology moved during WW2. Something that would be considered science fiction in 1939 was almost functional 5 years later
and almost all that technology was Germany technology. how they lost the war ?
@@samirmonako1527 They started a war with literally everyone. Also the allies did not stay too much behind the Germans and there where a lot of reliability issues
@@samirmonako1527 the reason why they lost the war is very simple. Most of technologies was introduced too late to change the war, and from 1943 Wermacht was only retreating with low amount of supplies and oil. If germany capture the Moscow in 1941, the war could be winned easily by Germans and then conquer the world, like at some movies or games.
@@friedrichstainer8330 most of German advance secret weapon look cool cause they are the one who lost so their documents will be explored by Allies. That doesn't mean they are more advance than US British or Soviet. And most of their "super weapons" are more like prototypes than actual finished products, they must to use them cause they have no to develop anymore and throw everything they can in the war, unlike Allies when they have time to finish their weapons.
@@samirmonako1527 Economics. The US, UK and USSR were 3 largest economies of the time (IIRC). All three were big enough and had territory far enough from the Axis powers that they had plenty of factories which couldn't be bombed. In short, they could mass produce the latest and greatest weapons, whereas the Axis only had a handful. Even then, not all were well used. Consider, for instance, the engagement when experienced pilots from the experienced "Tuskegee Airmen" group in propeller-powered P-51s defeated 9* German Me 262 jet fighters for no losses of their own (the Germans were less experienced). Consider also, from a purely strategic perspective, that the V2 was a waste of time and resources better spent on the V1 (The V1 could be shot down, meaning many Allied air defenses were tied up behind friendly lines instead of protecting troops on the front).
* 3 confirmed "kills", 3 "probable" kills and 3 "damaged."
damn i was expecting the missle to explode :(
same :c
HAH
Slight blue balls but ok
Too much CGI work
Ha! So were the germans! 😄
THE BIRTH OF AIR-TO-AIR MISSILES
Could you please make a video on the ASM-N-2 Bat?
It is a world war 2 radar guided anti ship fire and forget glide bomb/missle deployed by the U.S. navy at the end of the war. It was at least 15 years ahead of its time. It is absolutely insane.
technically want rear advanced Germany also made radar-guided missiles and homing torpedos during WW2 a lot of nations made guided weapons during WW2 but only Germany and the U.K managed to deploy these weapons
@@chucknorris6640 The US deployed the glide bomb and sunk japanese ships 37km away from the launch point. It was not only made, deployed, but proven and did see combat use. This was the only example of a active radar autopiloted missile in ww2. German missiles had to rely mainly on MCLOS from the launch vehicle and even at best MCLOS was achieved via radio.
Nice! Didn't know this! And epic animation as always!!
I can imagine there's a risk that the wire could get entangled in the interceptor's propellers.
That is definetly a threat. They were thinking about arming jet fighters with this missile, but refrained from it, since they came to the conclusion that flying a plane and controlling the missile was too difficult for a single pilot, so the missile would have mostly been used on two seated planes.
@@utzius8003 Germany wasn't even really using two-seaters by then. Two-seat aircraft were too vulnerable.
the wire is very very thin, it would be cut easily
@@anzaca1 The two seater Me-262 did exist, and could have been relatively easily adapted to fill this role.
hmm interesting, i never knew about the flare in the X-4 and how it actually looked from the rear mounted on a wing. thanks for this awesome video!
Me inside while watching this quality content : *You spin me, right round baby right round*
I wish for the day when there will be 60 H1MIN videos then I can watch an hour of history!
I could just picture the hassle of flying a plane, controlling the wire guided missile and getting targetted by interceptors at the same time
And so could the germans, thats why the program pretty quickly went away from the use of single seaters like rhe FW 190 in the video to planes with multiple seats so that flying the plane and guiding the missile could be done by different people
@@user-nd9jp2lj2r even with a 2 seater, its still difficult
I mean, its a wire guised missile for air to air
@@fulcrum2951 I could definetly see it being possible. Since it had a proximity fuse and an 8m kill radius, and it was targeted at slow bombers, flying mostly in a straight line it would have basically been a job of firing the missile and adjusting so that the red flare was always over the bomber formation. You have to remember that the targets were not single planes but big groups of often over a dozen planes flying in a tight formation.
@@utzius8003 in an ideal scenario, but nothing is ideal in war
Also, arent proximity fuses rare for the Germans?
German engineer always thinking about future , Sad That German Politic do The opposite
The animation at 0:24 is really nice, great work as always!
Amazing video as always, the animations were very good, however i was wondering why you were inactive for so long? and will you be uploading more often now adays?
Thanks for the comment. Yes, more is coming, apologies for the delay. There was another video but it was put on hold and that impacted the schedule.
@@H1MIN no problem brother, hope you continue the good work, good luck, I will be waiting for the next video soon, 😁👍
Oh man, your videos are just awesome, i hope you stay motivated while making these videos!
Every H1MIN videos are masterpieces

I swear you have a knack for introducing me to the strangest WW2 era technology I was totally unaware of, and I consider myself a nerd for this particular topic. So these weapons did see actual combat use? Interesting.
not likely, mostly test
Been waiting for your videos!
there is no other channel on youtube with as high of a beauty+information per minute ratio
Real life : Wire Guided Air to Air Missile
Ubisoft : Self -Guided Missile
We need this in WarThunder because Germany suffers.
lmao
Dude it would be a waste, the wire guiding would be to hard
@@FemmeCatGirl actually it easy to control wire guiding missile because there no wire in game
@@bearxd780 that makes no sense
@@FemmeCatGirl It isn't that difficult to shoot down things with rockets. Given that there is no warning of the missile and the enemy not spotting it you definetly could take someone out, especially if Gaijin adds the accoustical proximity fuse.
@@utzius8003 okay but here's my next trick as a FW-190 player I bring into the fold...... SPACE CAMPERS
I'm always checking for a new video to come out. Well done as always.
This channel deserves way more subscribers
i consider myself a ww2 history nerd and holy shit this is new thank you for the information
Congrats on 100K
Amazing video as always.
Great to have you back
Been a while. Good to see you back.
he is bac finally
Superb Production Value, Could You Do One On The PTAB Anti-Tank bombs ?
100.000 congratulations!
It would be interesting if they added it to War Thunder
Hmmmmmm b17 go boom?
great job dude, now time to wait another year for a new vid.
No B-17 were harmed in making of this video 😜
A BMW factory was harmed during the amking of this video.
Love these videos keep up the awesome work
History in minute, we've been waited for
Just subbed a couple of days ago when I came across one of your vids. Very happy to see this!
The only channel that I have the Bell notification selected for
It is crazy how ahead of their time Nazi engineers were. Great animation!
The pilot had to manually guide the missile, thus making himself an easy target. In practice, with escorting P-51s, the X-4 would've been useless.
@@anzaca1 Yeah, in practice most Nazi superweapons were pretty useless. That's what I mean by ahead of their time; not very useful in their time, but very similar to the technologies that would be used in the future.
they were only ahead in rocket technology and had a little more patience when developing stuff.
im researching alot about the wunderwaffen but theres to almost anything an american or british couterpart that was performing slightly worse and thus wasnt introduced to the allied armed forces while germany fielded everything .
for example camera tubes that were used in tv guided bombs were developed by germans and americans but this work stopped during the war and both sides developed their own cameras. the germans had the better camera but the americans actually fielded a tv guided bomb.
different story with the rockets , the v2 and wasserfall rocket was decades ahead of anything any other nation had during the war
Great content, you deserve more than 100k subs :)
YESS need more 🔥 keep it up
You should do a video on the Japanese infrared-guided bomb
Congrats on your silver play button!
Your presentation is fantastic.
Congrats on 100k 🎉

Excellent video !!
Respect man. Your videos are top notch
finally you're back
Congrats on reaching 100K subs my friend.
He's back!
Congrats on 100k
Doing a really good work, keep it up
So that's why they're called wire guided.
Commenting for algorithm. Love the vids
another great one.
you never dissapoint 👍🏼
Keep up the amazing work I love your vids
YOUR ALIVE! YES!
What program do you use to make the video?
Ayyy we missed you
Great video
german engineer always impressed me
If I'm not mistaken, the Hungarians had a similar development that wound up being used as a makeshift anti tank weapon against the Soviets.
1:18 Bruh my missile despawned
Ghost missiles. War thunder moment.
You're the best!
Love your channel!
First TOW Missile
Guess who's back back again
One thing I’m not understanding is what controlled the missile in flight? Did the rear fins have control surfaces?
100k subs congrats🥳🥳
Can you please explain how modern missile works like semi-active homing missiles
REJOICE BROTHERS, A NEW UPLOAD
Happy 100k!
Thank you for your continued support! More videos coming..
I’m sad we didn’t get to see it explode
Ahh yes, a new video😌
How the cable not get tangled over the fin after the missile spin like that
The cables were mounted in a way that separated them and were under constant tension.
Wonder if the V2 and V3 will feature one day?
Can you do a video about the Fritz X Bomb?
Love these videos my giy
Germans were really ahead of that time
Can't wait to see this in War Thunder!
Please for the love of god N O M O R E G.91 S
nice one m8
How do wires not tangle?
they do but its not a problem
What's the point of putting a flare? Isn't the exhaust from the missle enough?
We missed you
what happened to the wires once the missile exploded? do they planes have to fly back with cables dragging behind them? what they got caught in the gear on landing?
the pilot could cut them
Ruhrstahl X-7 ATGM , also in development . Range 1,2km , 2,5Kg war head .
