4 миллиона долларов за выстрел: Оружие, которое ломает хребет боевым кораблям

One such machine costs over $4 million and weighs nearly two tons. It can travel underwater at over 90 km/h in a medium 800 times more resistant than air. But how is one of the most advanced and dangerous mechanisms on the planet created from an ordinary aluminum casting? We go behind the closed doors of defense factories to witness the production process of modern heavy-duty torpedoes. You'll see the precision five-axis milling of 533 mm caliber hulls, learn the secrets of swashplate piston engines, and the dangerous Otto Fuel II fuel, which operates without an external oxidizer. We explore how a fiber optic cable thinner than a human hair controls this behemoth over a distance of tens of kilometers, how the Soviet supercavitating torpedo "Shkval" accelerated to a mind-boggling 370 km/h in a gas bubble, and how the finished weapon is tested in secret anechoic chambers under extreme pressure. 📍 Timestamps: 00:00 — How much does a modern torpedo cost and how it works 00:46 — 5 main sections: From sonar guidance to a jet pump 01:21 — Accuracy to 5 thousandths of a millimeter: Milling a 533 mm hull 02:08 — Swashplate engine and nitroglycerin-based fuel 03:00 — Wire guidance: Fiber optics thinner than a human hair 03:55 — 300 kg of explosives: Why a torpedo doesn't need to crash into a ship 04:46 — The secret of the Shkval torpedo: Supercavitation and 370 km/h underwater 05:35 — Testing at Keyport: Why a torpedo is locked in a pressure chamber 06:23 — The global torpedo market: From the American Mark 48 to the Turkish AKYA 07:11 — From an aluminum ingot to the ocean abyss Did you like the power of this production?
