      Well you could certainly argue Rheinmetall do deal in heavy metal......I believe over the years, they have incorporated that other famous German company - Krupps of Essen....... If you want exceptionally well engineered guns, then Germany would surely be high on your list. I always remember my dad saying he'd managed to secrete a German sub-machine gun away at the end of the war, bringing it back home when he was demobbed. He'd taken it apart to make it easier to conceal. Being from a farming family, he used it once or twice to shoot crows on the farm. He said he just used to empty a whole clip into a tree, and the crows fell out. He only had 2 clips of ammunition though, so the crow shooting didn't last long as there was no more 9mm ammo to be had at the time. He disposed of it by throwing it into a local lake.....

      @@moos5221 The railgun was a good concept, but it can only fire a few shots before the extremely high current electric arc ruins the rails (that is, what goes for a barrel for a railgun). It's not a practical gun before that problem can be solved. It's quite a problem because the whole idea of the weapon is based on it.
      Planes, ballistic missiles, and such are worth an AA missile, so the laser cannon isn't really optimised for those. Drones, grenades, and such would be more like it, as well as small missiles and rockets. Naturally haphazard improvised rockets too, like the ones used by terrorists. Lasers face many challenges, though, so we have barely generation zero going on. Cooling, atmospheric interference, and many other things take time to solve. They would be ridiculously cheap to operate, though. The programmable 35mm ammunition for the gun in this video cost as much as a hobbyist drone apiece, so while cheaper than missiles, they would still be worlds above the cost of using directed energy weapons. After the initial cost of getting the laser gun (and I guess developing it since nobody's selling them yet), firing it costs only candy money.

    Wonder about the operational cost. One of the strong points of drone warfare is they're very cheap and can be mass produced very quickly while the conventional radar and anti air missiles are much more expensive. One missile can have the same price as 1,000 drones. If they can make those smart munitions cheap enough to be economically reasonable to use against the cheap drones, then yeah that'd be impressive.

    • @T1ll573r
      @T1ll573r ปีที่แล้ว +10

      I feel you're thinking too short here. Surely the cost effectiveness of Surface-To-Air missiles is a different question, as e.g. a single Patriot missile is said to cost an estimated 4.1 million dollars. These bullets are way cheaper. If such a bullet costs 10.000 dollars and you need 50 of them for one cheap drone, it's usually still economically reasonable. Why? Because these drones are usually targeted at valuable targets such as infrastructure, tanks, airplanes and airfields, command posts, government buildings and the list goes on and on. So, the cost calculation is not a matter of "is it worth to shoot down a 250 Dollar drone with ammunitions that cost a 100 times more?", the question is rather which valuable assets you protect with these systems. And I won't start talking about what amount of money would be "too much" to protect a single human life.

      What would be a gamechanger is if Ukraine stopped playing Russia's game and only played defense. Let Russia throw their men into the meat grinder. (The only time that's happened so far was Bakhmut; and only because Prigozhin was going for glory rather than fighting how the Russian generals wanted him to.) What would be a gamechanger is if the west hadn't deindustrialized to the point where it can't produce enough shells for a conflict like this. What would be a gamechanger is the unsexy stuff that doesn't mean especially big money for arms makers. Unlike a system like this.

For example, the F35 could track and analyze targets, then feed that data along with patriot radar to the Skynex and phallanx systems that would prepare to fire at the target. F35 engages electronic warfare and its decided whether we want to waste a multi million dollar patriot missile on the target. As a small drone, target is not worth it, so engage with skynex and phallanx, and if those fail have the troops on high alert to fire stingers and start firing whatever guns are available at the target.

      That was one of the most retarded and most backwards arguments ever by Switzerland in this case.. You can buy and have our weapons and munition, but not actually use it in a socalled "dispute" (read: defend yourself in a war of agression by another country), or give it to another country that is in such a "dispute".. Why?!? Makes no sense..

    It is good to have defensive systems but look at the cost of such equipment, and operation, in relation to the price of drones. Enemies can overwhelm the opposite side causing huge financial losses and supply chain challenges (to keep operations) w/ low cost equipment. That of course works as a challenge and an opportunity to all.

      Sorry, but you miss the issue. You must ask: Whats the cost, if the drone hit the target? Then you can compare and decide to pay for the round(s) or let the drone (and other objects) pass. The same approach use Israel with there Air defense system.

    Excellent stuff! Fantastic gun!
    If one of these were mounted on a tank chassis, it'd be *great* at clearing trenches!
    You'd need to make sure the barrel could "depress" far enough though so it pointed down instead of up.
    I don't think it would even matter if the trench had a "zig-zag" in it - the shell would go right through it and out the other side!
    The only thing better would be an A-10 - Ukraine *desperately* needs about 20 or so of those.

      It's a dedicated anti air system though. What you're describing is more like a Puma. Thats basically an IFV with the same canon but more optimized for ground combat. Germany wont give their Pumas though. They are too knew and way too expensive.

    Mowag and Oerlikon are both Swiss, it’s iterally painted on the damn thing. The truck, the guns, the programmable ammo, the fire control system, and the target acquisition system are all Swiss, so it the GDF 009 dual barrel gun and everything else mentioned in the video. The test center is in Ochsenboden, Switzerland (I went there) and Rheinmetall Air Defence AG is at Bitchstrasse 155, 8050 Zurich Switzerland. There is nothing German in this system except the holding. But Switzerland cannot export weapons to nations in conflict…

    • @jean-emmanuelrotzetter6030

      Mowag belongs to General Dynamics, the former Oerlikon military division with all its subsidiaries to Rheinmetall since 1999.
      And the address of the subsidiary in Zurich is "Birchstrasse 155" (address of the former Werkzeugmaschinenfabrik Oerlikon-Bührle)
      Part of the 35mm AA-guns were manufactured (and copied) in several countries, also by companies not belonging to the former Oerlikon-Bührle group.
