World’s MOST POWERFUL GUN ever fired! Real 15 kiloton NUCLEAR SUPER CANNON explosion footage!



World’s MOST POWERFUL GUN ever fired! 15 kiloton NUCLEAR SUPER CANNON! (One of a kind!) (Video includes real nuclear explosion footage.) This video contains exclusive and extraordinary footage of the legendary M65 Atomic Cannon - the most powerful gun ever! Developed by the United States of America in the early 1950s, this remarkable artillery piece was capable of firing a 15 kiloton nuclear warhead – about the same size as the bomb dropped on Hiroshima – a distance of 7 miles. This remarkable cold war super weapon was deployed to Europe and Korea, yet was never used in active combat. Indeed it was fired only once, at the Nevada Test Site, on May 25, 1953 at 8:30am. The superb music -- called "Virtutes Vocis" -- was composed by Mr. Kevin MacLeod: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100800 ....And thank you for visiting the Ultimate Military Channel.

  1. meanwhile, in America...
  2. SEVEN FKN MILES ?????....THAT'S WHY IT WAS ONLY FIRED ONCE.....EVERYONE DIED FROM FALLOUT !
  3. this is my CCW go to.
  4. STUPID PEOPLE
  5. Very Happy this weapon has been banned with the Davy Crockett
  6. megaton is more powefull
  7. this was 20 kilotons by the way
  8. Is this accurate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W80_(nuclear_warhead) if so that means a single tomahawk missile is potentially 10 times as powerful rediculus
  9. Poor California...
  10. Metal Gear
  11. This is like DB
  12. Why does every single video I watch always take me to ye olde atomic grade weaponry videos of youtube?
    I can start with cats, go into some video of ostriches, then some kinda video about tanks in the desert and then all of a sudden, BOOM! NUCLEAR BLAST!

    It's like all roads of youtube lead to nuclear explosions.
    Dear Internet, you're weird.

    But I have to say that the explosions never get boring to watch o_o
  13. better make sure the wind as at your back!
  14. what if we did the same thing with a rail gun
  15. "Atomic Annie" currently on display at Ft. Sill, OK home of the mighty Field Artillery.
  16. amazing they could secure the devices internal mechanics against the force of the fireing.
  17. Those trucks were vaporized but the camera didn't, thats legit.
  18. you can see this cannon at ft. sill artillery museum. now, standard artillery can fire atomic shells. check out Davy Crockett from 50s, like a atomic hand grenade! had to jump in hole when fired, you were in blast zone!
  19. THOSE ATOMIC CANNONS COULD ONLY FIRE ATOMIC PROJECTILES. NOT AS MOBILE AS THE DAVY CROCKETT THAT COULD BE FIRED FROM A JEEP OR ON THE BATTLEFIELD. THOSE WERE MORE TACTICAL IN DELIVERING A 1.5 KT BLAST 2-3 MILES AWAY. THEY BRAGGED ABOUT INVENTING AN ATOMIC HAND GRENADE..BUT COULDNT FIND ANY SCIENTIST DUMB ENOUGH TO TEST IT...
  20. Anyone else notice that skip at 1:21?
