Its what you call a bad photoshop job.
Someone's superimposed the pic of a jet fighter over a sub based missle launching out of the water.

Country: | Yes.... I think it's BS too. I don't think the wings would stay on being
"launched" underwater.

Photoshop gets all the credit!

You were expecting an answer right...

copiers are "Xerox"..... I believe the term is "a household word".

Country: | for the few first frames, you can see the missle.
I actually think it's a pretty good job..
The aircraft rotates
The aircraft stutters as the engine starts
Camera shake is taken into consideration

Country:  | Sub Launch
Only Know of 2 aircraft launched from subs and Wurger will need to confirm the details of the first one. It was an unpowered autogyro towed by a U-Boat to give it long range spotting ability.
The other was one of the British K class boats which carried a seaplane (unknown type) in a deck hanger.
In both cases the sub had to surface and rig the aircraft.
Truth can be totaly wierd
