Former USAF munitions specialist here. Regarding the cooling to the seeker head, the AIM-9L/M utilized an on-board gas cylinder ( shaped a bit like a pot ) that contained 3000 PSI of Argon gas. When activated, this provided the necessary cooling as required. The Navy versions had Argon supplied from the aircraft itself
Bruh let's not spread potential classified information on the internet when we are literally on the brink of war with China and in proxy wars with Iran and Russia.
@@user-rs1fo2dd9b Not sure. I was given this information by a Navy AO ( aviation ordinance). I had mentioned the Argon cylinders that we used to swap out, and he looked puzzled and informed me that Navy versions supply Argon from the aircraft itself. I’ve never seen how this connects, but there you have it.
@@user-rs1fo2dd9b A nitrogen bottle is stored inside of LAU-7 launcher which supplies the cooling for the missile. I don't know why, but I think it's because it's faster to change the bottle in the launcher than change the bottle in the missile. Also the bottle is bigger inside of the launcher, so you can track longer before changing the bottle
@@Aitellyits an very famous video of the USAF (i think) explaining how the missile works,with an narrator,the audio is well know for how confusing the audio is
@Aitelly people are only giving you half the story. It is a video describing how a missle works. Specifically an inertial guidance missle. Commonly known as INS. In this a missle (or aircraft) dosent know exactly where it is. But it does know it's change in velocity and direction. If you know you turned left, then you know you didn't turn right kind of deal.
The narrator knows where the missile video is by knowing where the missile coments aren't and by knowing where they aren't the the narrator can find where it is.
Missiles aren't the only thing that like to lock on to the sun. The sun emits pretty much the entire electromagnetic spectrum at very high power outputs. It overwhelms pretty much anything meant to track radiation of that sort.
Nice video but- Modern AIM-9X warheads use a Tungsten (in my language = "folded cable") warhead that slices aircraft like a sword. It behaves a bit different than HE frag but excels at cutting down aircraft- would be nice to see in an animation. It's used in a bunch of newer A2A too
Its called continuas rod warhead Becose to make it you need ro weld rods around explosives so when the explosives explode the rods would stay connected
“The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, Or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is Greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective Commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a Position where it isn't, And arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is.

I’ve actually been working on a similar video with a physical 3D printed scan head that works in the visible range. By swapping out the different optical interrupters it’s easier to see what the signal of the seeker head is actually encoding. As a note, I’m fairly certain that this animation is partially incorrect. The pure segmented optical interrupter would only give you distance off bore axis. You need a rising sun reticle to calculate angle off bore axis. The two pattern combined into the same reticle is what allows both angle and distance from the ir diode to be calculated.
Where you have the warhead is a radar system. Since the sidewinder is meant to over correct its assumed it will effectively fly past the aircraft, so when it gets a strong return on the side looking radar the system assumes its beside the aircraft and pointing ahead of it, and detonates. If the target aircraft is not damaged by the initial burst, its going to fly into a cloud of debris fouling the engines at the very least

You forgot to mention the preconditioning of the missile. After the manufacturing, every heatseeking missile is put to emotional abuse, and refused contact with other machines. This psychological abuse makes each missile to seek warmth of another machine.
Very impressive! I'm curious on how an airplane refueling works in mid-air, hopefully there will be an explanation of it on your next videos. Thanks! 👍👍👍
@@wisemysticaltree2444 You don't understand because the writing in this video is poor quality. The graphics are fine, but there are plenty of inaccuracies and difficult-to-follow sections and segue.
I wish the video explained how the missle keeps locked on to the target. If it’s out of the centre of the reticule, how does the computer know if the rocket needs to go up/down/left/right to realign its course with the target. Let alone the mentioning that it takes a shortcut, and aims at a location where the target will be (in a few seconds).
The first Sidewinder to receive IRCCM that avoids flares and the sun is the AIM-9M the variant before the AIM-9X. Although the IRCCM on the 9X is still far better than on the 9M.
Question? What about anti heat jammer, for example a heat flare? What about if the enemy aircraft launches another missile after the Heat Seeking missile? Could you use a low emp against the Heat Seeking missile? Does the reticle ever go bad? Those pulses how often is it, is it in seconds, minutes?
The AIM-9M is more susceptible to flare decoys. The AIM-9X has improved IRCCM (IR Counter-Counter Measures) aka flare rejection technology. It takes into account many factors. Also the 9X has digital image processing to recognise a target-like object in it's field of view (it is shaped like a plane, not a flare, etc). Most military hardware is EMP hardened, but I dont know specifically about AIM-9s. The frequency of the tones is from 500hz, 750hz, and the high pitched "locked on" final tone is 1500hz. I believe these come from the frequency of the reticle from older models but was carried over to the new 9X digital models for consistency. Hope that helps!
@@MattH-wg7oueven the aim9m isnt too bad Its the first (?) Aim9 with irccm If i remember correctly everything before the M just locks the hottest thingvit sees
so the spinning seeker can detect if the infrared source is deviating from the missile's trajectory by changing in pulse frequencies. but how the seeker can detect which direction the target is deviating to?
The additional historical note for a weapon design that spans decades really enhanced the segment. On a different tangent, the AIM-9X is not an effective AAM for UAPs like "Tictac" because it does not exist in the weapon's database, right?
Only real criticism is the depiction of the flight. You show the rocket motor burning all the way to terminal. But rockets burn through their fuel in a few seconds achieving their max speed almost immediately.
The sidewinder was the first successful air to air missile. The aim4 predates it but was less than reliable. The aim4 opted for radar tracking and ir tail chase, the tech to make those systems reliable didnt exist yet, so the lower tech sidewinder was employed
As many other suggested and I also suggested it would be interesting to see the effects of different warheads. Like the continuous rod warhead that slices planes in half. Or the effects on the crew when an apfsds/shaped charge etc penetrates the tank. WHY is it so destructive?
When it's on the plane pylons, it looks small. But when you remember the measurements you also remember that it's longer then the height of a building's floor.
Almost spot on but you missed the proxomity lasers on the side of the missile .apart from that best missile video i have seen by a country mile. You Never skimp or take ,liberty with the details like others .

These missiles are able to lead the target without knowing the distance to target using a concept known as proportional navigation or constant bearing decreasing range.
Still dont know how it works. Sorry but i do not understand why the reticle even needs to be there. How it aim when missile is fired? is that somehow "store" the wave amplitude and phase and it trying to follow this pattern and based on that it steer the wings? I think this should be quite more detailed here. Especially when the videos is named as it is.
We gunna talk about how for the peak noise of the aim 9 while on target he used the cage seam lock mode on the f-14 (note: not sure if that sound was used for a uncaged lock on other US/NATO planes that carried the aim 9)

The AIM-9M and newer versions after that had IRCCM (InfraRed Counter CounterMeasures) so it will now the difference between engine heat and IRCM. also the AIM-9A/B didn't have the capability to pull major G's if I'm correct only able to pull 10G's which is not much compare to the more modern AIM-9X where its able to pull up to like 45+ G's.
5:59 "astonishing"? 2.5M is at most underwhelming for a missile. Sparrow missiles also used by the US reach speeds of 4.0M. Sidewinders are known to be quite slow among air to air missiles whereas for example french matras reach 4.5M and soviet long range IR missiles have been boasting a speed of 5.8M (namely the R27ET)

This only applies to INS guided missiles, and that guidance system is only a backup to a backup on any air-to-ground missile used in the past 30 years
Before launching, the pilot shows the missile a picture of some heat, and perhaps one of its jumpers, that way it knows what to look for.

can you do a video on how the various missile launcher rails and bomb racks work? also the drop tank mounts and how they drop?
imagine missile locked on the sun😂
Great animation! What is it made in?
The warhead doesn't shoot out little balls, but what it does shoot out is in a cone shape and made of titanium.
Still dont know how it works. Sorry but i do not understand why the reticle even needs to be there. How it aim when missile is fired? is that somehow "store" the wave amplitude and phase and it trying to follow this pattern and based on that it steer the wings? I think this should be quite more detailed here. Especially when the videos is named as it is.
Me when the su-27 talks shit about my dog
Totally laughed
We gunna talk about how for the peak noise of the aim 9 while on target he used the cage seam lock mode on the f-14 (note: not sure if that sound was used for a uncaged lock on other US/NATO planes that carried the aim 9)
Love it ♥
Thanks
imagine how scared the mig17 was when the supposedly anti tank rocket started to turn for him.
They were rear aspect only soo the mig probably didnt even see the missile
The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't. In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has acquired a variation, the variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was. The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows. Because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be from where it wasn't, or vice-versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be, and where it was, it is able to obtain the deviation and its variation, which is called error.
The AIM-9M and newer versions after that had IRCCM (InfraRed Counter CounterMeasures) so it will now the difference between engine heat and IRCM. also the AIM-9A/B didn't have the capability to pull major G's if I'm correct only able to pull 10G's which is not much compare to the more modern AIM-9X where its able to pull up to like 45+ G's.
Awesome piece of information
Thanks 🙏🏻👍🏻
“the missile knows where it is at all times”
Cool video but the way you say sidewinder is very frustrating
If the first sidewinder/heatseaking missile kill was back in 1958 imagine what they could do nowadays.
5:59 "astonishing"? 2.5M is at most underwhelming for a missile. Sparrow missiles also used by the US reach speeds of 4.0M. Sidewinders are known to be quite slow among air to air missiles whereas for example french matras reach 4.5M and soviet long range IR missiles have been boasting a speed of 5.8M (namely the R27ET)
Great vídeo 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I patiently wait for your videos from Bangladesh...
Always wanted to go Dhaka
