New Zealand Family Reacts to 5 Reasons You Shouldn't Mess With America

what's up pins it is hi and welcome back to another reaction video and today we're going to do something pretty cool it's about uh the five reasons you shouldn't mess with the usa but before we get into the reaction video i just wanted to quickly give a huge shout out to all of our new patrons who joined us over on patreon and if you guys are interested in joining as well we have some exclusive content coming soon that we're planning and it might have to do with reactions so stay tuned for that join if you want to see that sort of stuff and yeah we'll get we'll start off with giving a shout out link's down below link is down in the description if you want to join and we'll give a huge shout out to uh philip yorigas and craig hirschfeld also apologies if we mess up these names we're sorry but uh we're doing our best we're going to have a turn of saying your names each a huge thank you to harvarquette and a emmanuel jensen and also oscar oginski and kathy d john myers and bart watson and bruce nelson you guys you guys are legends you guys are awesome so thank you you guys joined the hall of fame yes and uh yeah so we have some see you over there yeah we have some awesome content planned for you guys so stay tuned for that we're still in the planning stages and we need to get our head around how it all works eh yeah yeah we just we're just yeah figuring out how it works but once we've got it down uh then yeah you guys will definitely be rewarded for that so thank you again and let's get straight to the reaction right the collapse of the soviet union in the early 90s left the united states as the sole superpower in the world and it's never looked back in all aspects of the world the united states is indeed a superpower especially when it comes to its military might which is unsurpassable in its strength technological superiority operational capabilities and power projection across the globe in this video we'll take a look at the five top reasons why you wouldn't want to go against the us military establishment the united states air force is the strongest in the world not only in the number of operational aircraft but also in technological superiority the country currently operates a total of over 15 000 military aircraft combining all the branches of military services and how many aircraft is in new zealand i know like do we have one fighter jets zero oh no you can yeah yeah and the us marines as of 2017 the us air force alone has a fleet of over 5 300 aircraft 406 intercontinental ballistic missiles or 170 military satellites greater than any other country in the world that's enough for one for the usa has the largest number of stealth aircraft designed to be silent killers and traffic radar defense systems of most countries in the world some of these stealth aircraft include air superiority fighters such as the f-22 adapter and the f-35 joint strike fighter heavy bombers such as the b2 spirit in fact the united states pioneered this technology in the 1980s with the introduction of the f-117 nighthawk stealth attack aircraft stealth aircraft are designed to avoid detection using a variety of technologies that reduce radar reflection from ground up right air-based radar antennas using its radar cross section or rcs this revolutionary technology allows a fifth generation aircraft such as the f-22 raptor with a max takeoff weight of 83 500 pounds to have a radar cross-section of just 0.000 meters squared about the size of a bumblebee oh what's more insane is that the massive b2 bomber also has the same radar cross-section as the f-22 raptor thus it becomes extremely difficult to track stealth aircraft even if the enemy spots them on their radar scopes it's a whole other story to successfully track them and register a missile kill the whole idea behind this technology is to break the chain in which a conventional surface-to-air missile defense system works it's the same reason countries like china and russia are also hard at developing their own stealth fighter the chengdu j-20 and the sukhoi su-57 respectively these aircraft will allow the us air force to assert its air superiority over any battlefield of the future and we all know that control of these skies is the biggest decider in any war the next reason why any country going to war with the us military should think twice is because of the strength of the u.s navy dominance over the world's ocean especially these super carriers the u.s navy currently operates 11 nuclear-powered nimitz-class supercarriers which is the largest aircraft carrier fleet in the world any navy that can come close in terms of technological advancement is probably the royal navy of the united kingdom but they only have two operational carriers the newest class of carriers has a displacement of over 100 000 tons and can carry a complement of up to 70 aircraft they're literally a floating small town in the ocean with its own airport the nimitz-class carriers in themselves are extremely potent offensive weapons but the way they operate in what is called the carrier strike groups makes these ships even more deadly a carrier seldom deploys alone there are always a fleet of surface and underwater assets surrounding them and forming a strike group like a whole army guided missile cruisers a destroyer squadron attack submarines and other support vessels together they project the power of the carrier and at the center of the group forward towards the enemy while the carrier is carrying out its offensive role with the use of its airwing the other ships are responsible to protect against any enemy attack this combination of offensive and defensive strategy makes the us carry a strike group almost impenetrable the united states navy maintains nine such carrier strike groups eight of which are based in the united states and one that's forward deployed to japan for over 50 years this has been the principal element of u.s power protection and the nimitz class of supercarriers are at the center of it all despite this the us is currently in the process of developing a new class of carriers called the gerald r4 class intended to replace the nimitz-class ships this new supercarrier will be even more technological and is expected to continue us dominance of the oceans well into the late 21st oh my goodness the third reason why you shouldn't fight the us military is their massive stockpile of nuclear and conventional intercontinental ballistic missiles or icbms the icbm plays the role of the land leg in the u.s nuclear triad along with the trident submarine launch clinic submarine nuclear warheads strategic bombers icbms are launched from ground-based missile silos achieving high sub-orbital space flight approximately 1 000 miles above the surface of the earth the body of the missile then separates from the warhead which re-enters the atmosphere and free falls to the assigned target at hypersonic speeds currently operates 400 icbms from its base in wyoming montana and north dakota the lgm 32 minuteman 3 is the only type of icbm that is currently operational in the us the minuteman 3 family of icbms were first developed in the 1960s as a response to the soviet nuclear threat throughout the cold war and beyond these missiles have undergone constant modernization in the last decade alone the u.s taking seven billion dollars worth of upgrades the rocket propulsion engines used the guidance system and even the flight control surfaces have all been refurbished the upgraded missiles are completely different from its 1960s counterparts except for the shell these state-of-the-art improvements and modernization programs have kept the minuteman 3 system operational for over 50 years of improved reliability that supports them itself remarkable 99 alert rate it's like a small building have a range of over eight thousand miles which is greater than the diameter of the earth at 7917. all the way around the world can carry multiple 30 kiloton nuclear warheads which is 20 times greater than the bombs dropped on hiroshima and nagasaki not only that each of these warheads can be assigned to different targets independently the technology is called multiple independently targetable re-entry vehicle or mii and was first developed for the minuteman 3 family of missiles so any country messing with the united states will have to deal with this awesome arsenal of firepower which can be launched at a moment's notice the icbms or the stealth fighters raining fire down on you it would be precision guided munitions or better known as smart bombs or pgms instead this is another big reason why not messing with the us military is a good idea very good idea branches of the us military use smart bombs in some forms or the other these weapon systems are designed to be precise and hit a specific target with maximum efficiency these bombs are so effective that during the first gulf war pgms comprised only 9 of weapons fired but accounted for 75 of all successful hits since then for the us military at least the days of normal artillery shells and unguided bombs are long gone nowadays the military uses pgms from air ground and sea precision guided munitions come in various forms and use different kinds of technologies to achieve precise hits a large majority of pgms use the global positioning system or gps of satellites to guide their trajectory to target however sometimes this becomes a problem as gps coverage is not always reliably available everywhere across the globe or bad weather conditions can hinder operations thus the office of naval research the naval surface warfare centre and the army research laboratory have all coordinated to develop the first ever artillery-fired smart munition that will not use gps guidance the project is known as moving target artillery round or mtar for short the mtar shell can be guided onto stationary as well as moving targets in both land and sea using the combination of guidance technology the best part is that these shells can be fired from the existing m777a2 155 millimeter towed howitzer and the m109a7 paladin integrated management self-propelled 155 millimeter artillery systems already in use by the us military the shells will also feature an extended range of 40 to 60 miles using rocket boosters to propel them this don't even bother [Music] unmanned aerial vehicle or drone is and what it's supposed to do but in recent years the usability of uavs are steadily increasing to encompass all spheres of military operations and the us military is the pioneering spirit behind it at first used only for surveillance missions drones were quickly weaponized after the 911 attacks and have been extensively used by the us military in the war against terror as an offensive weapon platform it's forecasted that over the next decades the us is in line to purchase over 1 000 combat drones of various classifications some of them like the lockheed martin rq170 sentinel and the boeing mq-25 stingrays final stages of development and once finished will provide the us military with state-of-the-art platforms capable of multi-role operations ranging from attack missions to aerial refueling drone technology has reached such heights today that a single uav can lighter miles above the surface of the earth for hours waiting for the target to show its head and sticking with impunity this capability will allow all the services under the us military to reduce its dependency on manned platforms thereby reducing the risks during future combat operations these five weapon systems make the us military extremely damaged for any adversary looking to get into a conflict with them in a conventional warfare setting it's almost impossible to beat the u.s military machine that's why modern enemies of the united states are employing more and more asymmetric warfare strategies against the mighty u.s military despite that the us military juggernaut is hands down the most powerful military complex in the world today and probably will be for decades to come that's all we have for you today folks oh man then click the subscribe button and also click the notification bell enjoy the first one i think we should definitely sub to them please tell me that we're friends with america i think we are i think we are we're we're free we're friends we're inside we like we like you guys if we went into war would we be in the same yeah now we're on america's side yeah yeah there and if we got into war they would hopefully protect us pretty sure they were hey guys yeah hey you would i we love you okay who's scared i'm not scared that makes me feel better because they're on our side but something that really entered my mind during that video was like the technology that was on display there like we think that these smartphones and stuff like that are like the pinnacle of our technology or you know other little smart devices that we have but it's just it's so like old compared to what they're they're on and they have yeah like they can like pinpoint on your face from like space and stuff like that yeah that's crazy i know the level of technology that the mother series is it's kind of scary technology now i'm going to walk around now just like like it does nothing they can probably see through your hands yeah x-ray x-ray from space yeah yeah that was crazy and also another thing they didn't really mention was the cost like i wanted i know and who pays for it like one missile i wonder how much that cost or like one of those jets or one of those drones like man it's like billions you know um because we don't really have an army here don't tell anyone we have an army we don't have much of like an air force but we don't have a lot of defense no we don't have much defense yet shh that's a secret don't tell anyone yeah don't tell the baddies yeah but who pays for the army is that tax payer money yeah i think they yeah they just have like a budget that they put each year towards military so that's tax tax dollars yeah but also another thing i was gonna say was i think that the the reason like one of the reasons that you try and drive that whole like you know guided missile and smart bomb technology is it means that you don't have to have guys on the ground running in and doing all the shooting and fighting also you don't have collateral yeah yeah and less collateral yeah do you know what collateral is like unintentional death so they're getting to the target yeah of you know what they need so if there's like a baddie in a building and they shot the baddie in the building but then next door it was like some people just normal people who weren't batting civilians and they they died from that explosion yeah what i mean so they're trying not to hurt civilians but to take out the actual enemies so they want to get rid of that happening yeah so that's why you push forward and also it means that you don't lose as many of your own soldiers as well you know you don't have to put human lives in danger yeah of your from your own side either wouldn't it be nice if everyone was just friends because yeah i mean humans we're all humans everyone just chilled out and watched your new zealand family on youtube exactly together let's just all be friends yeah anyway guys that's it for that reaction we have many more to come so stay tuned for that uh we may delay our trip to america knowing all of that probably safer than we are here yeah that's true but yeah anyway so if you like that one guys please smash the like button comment down below comment down below follow us on instagram and subscribe if you want to see more we'll see you next one bye you
