4:48 Poor li'l dude.
He made it out fine, c'mon.
Good 'ol LCAC. I was the deck mechanic of LCAC- 30, 1992-1995.
navigator from 90-96 at acu-5.
@@brainsironically, Which boat?
@@themanongentengchronicles2776 started on Bob James' crew, sent to 22, then 2, then 30 in sasebo, then 42, then 3. Also flew 1, 5, 14 (in training,) 45, and I think 48 for a couple missions right before I got out.
the best us navy ❤❤
I was deployed on the Bonhomme Richard in 2007, awesome experience.
My father was deployed on the USS. Bonhomme Richard from 1958-1960
Same name, different ship 😮
I have some really cool photos of this ship and the flight decks aswel, would love to share them if anyone wanted to see what the US Navy was like in the late 50s
If you think this is only found in the U.S. Navy, you're sorely mistaken. Project 1232.2, code-named "Subr" (Russian Зубр; for bison, NATO designation: Pomornik class), is a class of large air cushion landing craft developed by the Soviet Navy during the Cold War and now operated primarily by the People's Republic of China. There are two boats still in service with the Russian Navy (as of 2007):
-770 Yevgeny Kocheshkov (previously MDK-50, named after Yevgeny Nikolayevich Kocheshkov).
-782 Mordovia (previously MDK-94)
Bro everybody knows that Russian stuff is Garbage.
@@Zesmas I wouldn't say that. It's more the case that the Russians tend to neglect their technology in terms of repair and modernization.
Wow really bozo we didn't know 🖕🏼🤣🤣
Yes, hovercraft have really come on since the British first invented them. We used them initially for civilian water transport but because they have such a light footprint and are unlikely to trigger mines etc they can deliver their payload safely inland.
😂😂😂You ungrateful bastards are always jealous..
Happy Thanksgiving
Sets with almost every types of Environment, Smart technology.
The hovercraft was invented by Englishman Christopher Cockerell and first flew in 1959. full details on Wikipedia
4:50 the dog was duly impressed
បង្កើតកាប៉ាល់ដឹកទំនេញអោយបានច្រើន
Brings back memories. USS Germantown 95-97.
I was with ACU-5 and deployed with USS Germantown is Sasebo, 1993.
What a giant hovercraft.
Marvelous engineering.
Yes British engineering usually is.
it is an incredible piece of equipment..,but in the middle of a battle to land vehicles & troops on beaches..it is quite a sitting duck ,one manpad and it's over (craft..!!)..
I'd like to see an episode about the well ships they mention during related videos.
What a giant hovercraft, and can reached a 70 miles per hour!! Gr.Wim.J.Hoogerbrugge Rotterdam-Charlois Holland.

Vũ khí,phương tiện hiện đại , tối tân ...mà sao vẫn thua trận nhỉ !?
I build these for textron systems. Fascinating beasts
We are Bad A$$ 🇺🇸
But can they survive the naval drones like the ones that are giving the Russian Navy headaches in the Ukrainian War?
when I see that rubber balloon hitting rocks like crazy and remember the air mattress I bought recently, makes me believe I come from the third world
God Bless América
ยิงใหญ่มาก 👍
it snows and floods in NJ. I need one.
The mgm't of russia would do well if yesterday or sooner they would start to figure out how to pay reparations to Ukrain!!!!
Thanks
Obviously using alien technology. Nobody can think of stuff like that on their own... 😒😃🤪
Indeed. Its not as if the English actually invented and developed it or anything.... 🤣
Obivituc👍
First hovers were invented and used by the Soviet Union
The reason we learn math and science is to turn hard ideas into reality. Martians are in your head. Study a math book. Get reality.
@@zakharartemiev4443 Doesent mean they where actually good.
Thank you 🤓
There have been around since the early 90's - so nothing new more like 30 years old.
50s, not 90s.
90's is correct.
@@ky1ebetts Sir Christopher Cockerell.
Learn.

Fantástico 🇧🇷👏👏👍
My sofa had to move at 90 miles an hour just to catch up with its cushions
The ACV looks like a Stryker.
USA product very good china no good

I did not know hovercraft drive, there I thought they glide on a cushion of air.
Roubaram a idéia da mãe Rússia.

Russia has a larger 1 unfortunately
just because its bigger doesent mean its better, i think we both know that if its Russian its most likely garbage. Since Russia loves to cut corners on literally everything and isnt willing to spend money. because They dont care about their own military.
Right, they have a larger 1. Emphasis on the 1. The USA has I think she said 100 of these things with more being made all the time.
Floating tanks were first introduced in the 1940s by the English.
Stop with the suggestive yank over claims
William R. Bertelsen (May 20, 1920 - July 16, 2009) was an American inventor who pioneered in the field of air-cushion vehicles (hovercraft). Bertleseb was most notable for being the inventor of the Aeromobile, which is credited as the first hovercraft to carry a human over land and water.
In 2002, Bertelsen was named the "Father of the Air Cushion Vehicle" by The World Hovercraft Federation.
@@John-nc4bl Cockerell invented the hovercraft. He was English.
I do not think she said USA invented these things just that they have them so why get so upset?
Esses americanos em tudo se julgam melhores.
these do not go 70 mph
تخدم راسك تلقاها
Inveja da porra 😡

Imagine an AAV with both an Avenger M-8 30 mm auto-canon as its primary anti-armor/anti/materiel weapon, but backed up with 2 M-61 Vulcan 20 mm miniguns mounted side-by-side on a rapidly-transiting turret mount for light armor/non-armor targets and secondary anti-aircraft capabilities.
