#railgun #militarytechnology #navalwarfare
Railguns were supposed to change naval warfare forever, using electromagnetic force to launch metal projectiles at Mach 7, over 200 miles, without explosives. But after nearly $500 million and over a decade of development, the U.S. Navy quietly ended the program in 2021.
This video looks at how railguns work, what went wrong, and whether other countries like China and Japan will succeed where the U.S. failed.
