Launching a Missile from a Boat

Warfare at sea has always had certain challenges that technology has had to overcome.

On top of the physical shock associated with launches, there’s also the heat from the discharge that must be considered.

This video shows a technique against a stunning dawn (or dusk) backdrop that shows how a little ingenuity, some smart minds, and modern science can solve the problems that have plagued war vessels for centuries.
