Check out this video that has emerged showing an SM-2 missile misfire aboard a Germany warship.
The test fire took place June 21 aboard the German Navy vessel Sachsen (F219).
Luckily, only two crew members sustained minor injuries. The deck of the Sachsen, however, was pretty scorched by the blast.
