The difference between a minehunter and a minesweeper

Please make a video on the Iranian defence industry and Iranian made weapons

What about landmines?

Please bring the old background music back. I miss it. :)

Dear Mr military TV, Keep up the top quality work, your doing a fantastic job 😉😊

Any ship is a minesweeper, once!

Baltic Sea is the best reservoir to place mines.

I still wonder why it's always china and russia. As if western powers aren't laying them or employing likewise strategies

Thank you so much, the only channel that gives great military knowledge. Please could you do a video about the different Air to ground bombs (GBU/FAB) Thanks again

First ♥️ for time of 17hours

The difference between a minehunter from a minesweeper? Isn't it is so obvious about the difference? One is a minehunter and the other is a minesweeper! What else/ a hunter is not a sweeper and vice versa. That is it, and that is all. Lol!

Huh. I have always known that the Australian Navy Huon Class are mine hunters, but I always thought it was just a name variation and that hunter/sweeper were interchangeable. I now know how uninformed I was.

I was stationed on three minesweepers. The USS Gallant, USS Conquest and USS Enhance. They were all with a wooden hull. We hunted for mines from 0400 the 2000. Add being attacked by Iranian Boghammars. We used shoulder launched stinger missiles to combat them. It was pretty hair raising to be in that situation. It was late 1986 through 1988. Our job was to keep the Straits of Hormuz open to shipping. It’s an experience I’ll never forget.

In the Falklands War, the Royal Navy had no MCMVs, the Admiral used frigates instead to check Falkland Sound for mines, there were none.

"In England..." Oh dear, you meant "In the UK..."

The Flower class small ships were not only used against mines, they were also used in large number as Corvettes escorting and protecting convoys particularly on the Arctic convoys trying to supply Russia from England, the ships were barely seaworthy for Arctic waters at the best of times and fighting off U-Boats and air attacks didn't make it any easier, these men were indeed of Greatest Generation.

Got 10-15 years on those ships I've lost count even worked on the old 1950's model the Adjutant-class minesweeper. Now that was some realy oldschool shit. Surprisingly they where realy old ships but still worked as intended. Just like they say,they don't make them like that anymore.

A Pitiful video! Did an adult review this video prior to release? What is with the horrible distracting music? Best of luck, but this is a rather awful format!

I bet the Russians have state of the art mine detectors and removal capabilities!! They will be the heroes SOON as they remove the sea mines Ukraine lost in their sea blocking THEMSELVES from selling their grain!! Russia will make it possible for them to deliver their grain!!!

Bullshit we hunt and clear mlnes 509, USS Tripoli became support after she hit a mine

I watched a video about a type of warship named the minecraft.

Minehunter, minesweeper... either way, you've got some very brave men serving aboard a vessel designed to go into a potential minefield in order to protect the lives of others. Nothing but Respect for such men, from a former Amphibious Ship Sailor.

I still don't know how a minesweeper works or really what it does... I just know what it doesn't do. (I guess).

I was on an osprey class, down in Ingleside, Tx...good times

Wooden ships and iron men. Proud minesweeper sailor

I was stationed on the uss Assurance mso 521 (later AG 521) in the mid 70,s . we had a wooden hull with degaussing cables wrapped around the inner hull to keep us from being attracted to magnetic mines . we all so had some thing called an acoustic generator . not sure what that did . fun stuff . but not long after being assigned to assurance the navy decided to change it over to a different type of ship that looked for Russian submarines instead . so all of the anti mine equipment was removed and specialized sonar equipment was installed .

I served in a minelayer ferry.

Iran. Iran likes to play with mines.

I go aboard my first mine sweeper in march

Canada built 20 minesweepers in the 1950s with wooden hulls over aluminum frames. They were the Bay Class Minesweeper and a dozen of them were subsequently sold to the French and Turkish navies. A few of the remained in service into the 1990s.

My father and uncle were both on MSS1 an experimental NAVAL DEVICE. commissioned in the late 60's it was full of blown in closed cell foam and then the hull was flooded in order to keep it from capsizing from buckled hull plates it was made from the HARRY L GLUCKMAN a 500ft liberty ship and powered by (5) GMC 12-71 diesels running 360 degree harbor master pinion drives it could hold itself stationary in the ocean currents and had AC powered electrics and could pulse currents to create the correct magnetic signatures to detonate mines designed for AIR CRAFT CARRIERS down to Destroyers. Dad was on from 67-71 after blowing up crap in the Dry Tortugas and the gulf of Mexico the ship was sent to Vietnam in late 1971.- 72 plenty of info and photos of plumes of water obstructing the view of the ship on NAV SOURCE

Ive been on U.S.S. HAZARD, AM-240 numerous times since I was a kid in the 1970's. The largest ship to travel up the Missouri River under her own power back then. Shes now sitting on the riverbank at Freedom Park in Omaha, Nebraska alongside U.S.S. Marlin T-2, a diesel traning sub in the 1950's. The HAZARD is the last Admirable Class in existence since the city of St. Louis allowed U.S.S. INAUGURAL to break free and sink in the Mississippi years ago.
