Which is More Effective A Torpedo Or An Anti Ship Missile

[@keithhoss4990]

Torpedos are far easier to defend against because they are so slow compared to a missile but the effects of a torpedo are typically far more devastating.

[@anthonyifeanyi6124]

I don't think so. Anti ship missiles can be shot down but it's very difficult to counter torpedo

[@keithhoss4990]

@@anthonyifeanyi6124 It’s not difficult to counter one or two torpedoes but if a barrage of four is shot simultaneously you’re correct. And with with newer hypersonic anti-ship missiles they are nearly impossible to defeat. Not saying you’re wrong but there are many variables to the equation. 👍

[@pierreshasta1480]

The new hypersonic missiles are really a problem for warships, but torpedoes like the Poseidon which alone can destroy an aircraft carrier (the poseidon torpedo has a speed of 115 miles per hour). China is working on an Air/Water torpedo, it is a kind of missile that can navigate through the air and ends its trajectory in the water like a torpedo, until it reaches its target. It is much harder to stop a torpedo than a missile. While it is true that the torpedo is slower than a missile it is much more difficult to detect, and countermeasures are very slow in water

[@Shrek_Holmes]

nah. anti ship missiles can be dealt with with AA, which is probably some of the most advanced military technology if not the most advanced due to how destructive aircrafts are.

Rubbish

[@erbenton07]

PLEASE! no music!

[@nerdwwii8081]

Torpedo all the way

[@VAMobMember]

Hey, put a 250K nuke in both and WTF difference does it make? Or even a 10K nuke

[@AchwaqKhalid]

*Next:* Anti-submarine Missile 🆚 Torpedo

[@stephen7701]

if I was a sailor I wouldn't want to defend against either while out on patrol 😅

[@nesseihtgnay9419]

Torpedo is 10x more deadly, there's currently no counter to torpedo, only decoys.

[@janekfan666]

Uhhh... countertorpedoes exist

[@CC-ns2ds]

@@janekfan666 yeh I was gonna say the PAKET-NK is anti torp capable. Maybe what he means is there is currently no counter to the Poseidon bc it dives so deep?

[@beesod6412]

You folks seem to really upped your game, thanks for these!

[@fredhercmaricaubang1883]

One torpedo going off just 10 ft. or so below the keel of a ship will snap it in two & sink it in moments. Furthermore, although torpedoes are admittedly much slower & shorter in range than anti-ship missiles (which are actually the successors of the World War 2 era German Fritz X & Henschel Hs 293, by the way, & NOT the V-1), there is NO defense so far against them whereas there are multiple optional defenses against anti-ship missiles, such as hard-kill systems such as Close-In Weapon Systems (such as the US Navy's Phalanx or its much larger Dutch cousin Goalkeeper), Surface-to-Air Missiles & nowadays, there's the coming of Directed Energy Weapons Also Known As High Energy Lasers along with soft-kill systems such as flares, chaff & Electronic Counter Measures such as jamming.

@4.17.....🇮🇳INDIA:- I choose both😎 "SMART MISSILE" (Flying Torpedo with 650+km range & nearly hypersonic speed)

[@bryanknight1056]

Has India figured out toliets yet, or is the street still the primary method?

[@TheGreatMarathaArmy]

@bryanknight1056 No we use Pakistan for that purpose......BTW come out of 1990 mindset. Every Household of India has toilet......those who aren't......shit in mouth of those who talk logic less.😂

[@waleedali9393]

Missiles easy to get easy use and easy to made and much better

[@TROOPERfarcry]

.. give the enemy one of each?

[@gino3286]

hi great video indeed I have two question are there cruise torpedo that travels in an unpredictable trajectory ? does the availability of these advanced antiship weapons mean that warships are obsolete these days ? i am asking this because i am reading of humble drone speedboats sinking warships thanks a lot

[@Evan_Bell]

Yes, there's Poseidon. No, ships are not obsolete. Just because something can be destroyed, doesn't make it obsolete. Weapons have been destroying ships since warships existed, and yet we continued to build warships.

[@farsaijohn9544]

Missile is long range, torpedos short range, 😮 jf.

[@TheGreatMarathaArmy]

India's SMART missile is exception.....

[@OS-Gmod-machinemas]

What about the torpedo deploying, anti submarine missiles? or the RBU-6000?

[@1guitarlover]

Always a torpedo

[@RandyBaumery-s4i]

Anti-ship missile due to stealth, and also the ability of a missile to climb very high and dive down onto the ship.

[@thesmartestmanintheworld2653]

Whoever wrote this just got a new thesaurus.

[@kurtnelle]

TL;DR The missles are better unless you're trying to hit a submarine.

[@Erik-gg2vb]

Testing of anti ship missile with the goal of landing in the water next to the ship and going off is in the works by the US. Water transmits much more energy into the hull of the ship causing greater damage.

[@nikolatasev4948]

I wonder why anti-submarine missiles are not mentioned - they can carry a homing torpedo right to the target point. They are larger and more expensive than normal missiles, and carry smaller payloads than torpedoes - but they have the range and speed of missiles, and can target submarines. The released torpedo can't be shot down, unlike missiles when they approach the target.

[@TheGreatMarathaArmy]

Yes.....Asroc missile of USA, and SMART missile of India.

[@Wongwanchungwongjumbo]

The Torpedoes can be made With Oxygen fed Torpedoes just like WW2 Japanese type 95 Torpedoes

[@tentimesful]

torpedo or a diving missile if the fleet has aegis otherwise missile...

[@chrissimmonds3734]

WW2 what about the German Fritz X and Hs 293? KG 40 sank the Italian battleship Roma in the Med

[@autarchprinceps]

I wonder how surface ship like suicide drones like we have seen Ukraine use against Russia will play in this. Could they be harder to spot on radar than missiles and harder on sonar than torpedos? Can they be made faster than torpedos, maybe with hydrofoil tech? How hard are they to intercept in comparison?

Another British lie. Fulton came to Rijeka, in Croatia and took their design. Took to UK and developed more but first torpedo made, and first torpedo factory was in Croatia.

i bet this video will end saying "one goes in water the other is for air"
