@@hamiltonmays4256 There were some attempts to produce working _glider_ tanks, which there was actually a real demand for. Airborne troops by their nature had to do almost entirely without heavy support equipment or vehicles, and being able to reliably airdrop even a very light tank with your initial wave, without having to take over suitable landing sites on the ground first, would have been an absolute godsend. They never really managed to make it work properly though (or at least well enough to make up for the drawbacks inherent to the concept).
@@maniacalclickz5084 This means..if it was available for the drive to moscow...they could mass them, and shoot..."paratroopers" into moscow! Damn nazis missed an oppertunity there.
but jokes aside why would you need to shoot a massive shell when you can rain it from above by using better spg or aircraft because that gun in the superstructure won't work on high targets
Sadly not, but i'm sure somewhere in the Führerbunker there was a plan to launch 90kg bombs from the p1000 rat using a sturmtiger as a counter weight to launch bombs over 300m

Christie suspension is a suspension system developed by American engineer J. Walter Christie for his tank designs. He had it in his head for racing, went to war instend.
Reminds me of Silly Putty. It was originally supposed to be synthetic rubber for tank tracks. The formula was scrapped for obvious reasons, the guy sold the recipe to a toy inventor in the 50's- boom, we now have the blessing that is Silly Putty. And they say nothing good comes from war. Pfft, we got Silly Putty!
The Americans turned Christie down and he secretly sold to the Russians making some of the most impressive tanks of the war and even setting a world record or 2.
The problem the BT-42 was that the fuses on the HEAT-Shells were bad and didn't work half the time. If they would have worked, these things could have taken down IS-2s from the front. Also, there is a specific movie that willforever be linked in my memory when I hear the words "BT-42" or that Polka. Also trigger a flashback of M-26s getting owned and Karl.

10:23 I love the idea of having an entire army just made up of shermans, like just different sherman variants of it serving every need you could ask for
MyName AChef But it's in a M4A1 hull, the frontal armor is 50mm sloped to an effective thickness of 68mm and the sides are 38.1mm thick. So 7.0 is unreasonablely high. With Wirbelwind with 4x20mm at 3.7 and the Crusader AA Mk.II at 5.0 with a single 40mm, so I would say 3.7-4.7 is a good spot. Also the M19 with twin 40mms has a br of 5.0 so anything above that would be somewhat of a downgrade for players.
Jarredchris Gaming You do realise that Tier IV is 6.0 - 6.7, not 7.0 you dipshit. People use the Kugel in 7.0 Because it has good AA abilities. Not to hunt tanks.
I'm no expert on tanks but the montage of the tank jumping in the water and driving on poles over the water was pretty coool. Felt like I was watching an action movie
TopBunkProductions He said "no prototypes or blueprints".... i think he meant only fully assembled and working prototypes and not mock-ups or unfinished tanks
Pinco Pallino A mock-up isn't a prototype. Also, he never mentioned only counting 'fully-assembled' or 'working' prototypes, so excluding prototypes despite over half of this list being prototypes is moronic.
@Matthew McLennan Newsflash: you can enjoy something whilst criticising it at the same time. Loyalty alone doesn’t measure something’s quality. And who’s to say my criticisms weren’t learned? I didn’t just make them up.
Can I just say how much I appreciate your use of Girls und Panzer music. When the BT-42 came on and Sakjarven Polka started I was so happy.It's one of my favourite variations of the piece and the scene in which it is used is one of my favourite in the movie. Also thank you for talking about that particular tank. I was very curious about it after seeing it. Wondering why it looked like a BT-2 with a miniature KV-2 turret bolted to it.
2:09 Did I just hear Milliliters? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA *Breaths* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HOLY SHIT!!! watching that light tank doing jump into the river was awesome. Also imagine the Skink with a flame thrower attachment, that would of been a devastating infantry support platform.
9:22 What Is that music in the background when Iron Armenian talks about the skink anti aircraft sherman? It sounds good I'm just saying cause I don't know the name.
Anybody else think they should add the Skink AA to War Thunder? I think it'd be a good addition in between the M15 CGMC at BR 3.3 and the M19 at BR 5.0.
Gonna type stuff as I listen The Sturmtiger vs 2 Sherman Platoons thing holds a tiny bit of merit. There was a report of a SPAG destroying a bridge that Shermans were prepping to cross. No Shermans were lost but the Bridge was leveled. Never confirmed by any allied reports if it was a Sturmtiger or Brumbar or Hummel. Shell ricochets actually rarely happened. Most of the time rounds would be caught in the armor and leave a dent. Hence why most tanks like the KT you see after a heavy engagement it's filled with dents in the armor. Skink is technically a Grizzly hull but they're basically the same thing so w/e. Skink was definitively not put into service because of the lack of threat from the Luftwaffe. The tank wasn't needed for infantry support if a normal Sherman could do the same thing and was already available. Polstens were Polish variants of the Oerlikon 20mm which was also the base for the Hispano-Suiza and the cannons were available, but the US was more inclined to locally produced guns and the AN/M2's which were licensed Hispanos were not very favorable due to reliability and cost, and the efforts for creating a licensed variant of the Polsten was deemed low-priority. Combined with the fact that the Army HATED changing supply lines to account for new vehicles, the need was pretty low everywhere. But as for the next 5 vehicles, you should definitely do the Kangaroo Carrier, T14 Heavy Tank, ARL-44, T55/T55E1 Armored Cars, and the Baker 8x8 Jumping Car.
From what I've read the U.S. had great trouble getting their copies of the Hispano cannon to work. When the Brits suggested a mod to get them working properly, the U.S. declined to do so. Funny that the Brits, who are responsible for the spread of the IMPERIAL system of measurements have had no problems adopting metric, even in the Second World War...
Säkkijärven polkka is occasianally still played by finnish army radio jamming in training. In one exercise they jammed all FM radio frequencies, so that if we wished to listen to radio, it didn't matter what frequency, there was non-stop säkkijärven polkka on loop :D
The finnish soldiers must have been so tired, 2 and a half days of nonstop music. God im laughing thinking about it, "Sir can we stop now?" "Do you want the mines to blow up?" "No sir...." "THEN KEEP PLAYING"
Um I think I might have found another issue with the sturm tiger that crane on the rear looks incredibly vulnerable and if that gets damaged you can't reload unless you're the fucking hulk
FYI: The Christie suspension is a suspension system developed by American engineer J. Walter Christie for his tank designs. It allowed considerably longer movement than conventional leaf spring systems then in common use, which allowed his tanks to have considerably greater cross-country speed. The system was first introduced on his M1928 design, and used on all[citation needed] of his designs until his death in 1944.HEAT Round were quite effective, it was what made an effective bazooka a possibility. I doubt on a T-34 that the issue was the HEAT round but more that the T35 was quite well armored for the time. Even the Germans with their tanks in 1942 had trouble with the T-34. With a low (howitzer) velocity gun, normal anti-tank rounds would have probably not had the velocity to be effective.
Each M4 company had a bulldozer blade kit. It was stored disassembled in the crate that it came in. The arms bolted to a bogie and had a bracket welded onto the front for the hydraulic cylinder. The hose ran thru the bow gunner's periscope hole to a hydraulic pump mounted on top of the transmission. It was driven by the driveshaft pulley that also powered the generator. The belt was made up of thick leather links made by Chicago Rawhide (CR) so an additional length of links came in the kit to increase the length of the belt. The M4 Calliope was made from plywood and 60 plastic tubes that could be reloaded 2 to 3 times before becoming warped from the heat. The assembly could be released from the interior to fall away in case the tank had to make a quick getaway from incoming German artillery targeting it. The M4 also carried a detachable launcher for larger rockets dubbed Whiz-Bangs. Those rockets also were called Holy Moses when used on aircraft and rocket firing landing craft. Those were fired directly at targets.
I think the main reason for the 'Skink' AA Tank not going into production was that the turret traverse was not fast enough to follow an attacking aircraft, whereas the 4X.40 Maxon turret on the M-16 was. The 20mm Polsten cannon that it was equipped with were good guns - a development of the excellent Oerlikon cannon. The Polsten was the secondary turret gun on the British Centurion mk 1, at the very end of the war. The Australian AC-1 Sentinel is an interesting tank, especially the variant carrying twin 25 pound field guns in it's turret. I'm also fond of the Sherman BARV (Beach Armoured Recovery Vehicle), and of the Russian T-28, and T-35. Not really a tank, but the Universal Carrier 'Mantis', is a fascinsting vehicle.
8:30 I am half Finnish and my great great grandparents moved to America around ww1 so my grandmother does know a bit of Finnish and can pronounce finnish words pretty well. I showed those words to my mom and she could pronounce them well.
It was good yet trash the barrel can't go down without breaking anything so they left the barrel up it also broke down half the time. So when they fired sometimes they would fear something would happen and it was really hard to aim
The Christie suspension system was the best suspension the U.S. Army ever adopted for its track systems. It was used on the M113 chassis which the osted support for artillery units as well as for chaparral missiles for the ADA. It was also used on the M551A1 Armored Recon/ Airborne Assault Vehicle which though it had its issues as far as reliability it never once threw a track off. The M60A1s could be looked at and they'd throw their tread. The M551 Sheridan never threw a tread. I've seen it where it has walked off both road wheels and yet it could still be walked back on with the center guides between the road wheels. It was virtually impossible screw up that suspension in fact the rest of the vehicle could be falling apart but the suspense was always solid.
I think Stalin is claimed to have said: "why many guns on one unit? Make for them one gun, but make it a good one!". My dad told me that over 20 years ago lol.
You can find the BT-42 in Parola armor brigade tank museum. Fun fact; if that brit howie was fired 90° toward the side the recoil was sometimes enough to flip the tanknon it's wide.
6:44 the most Russian tank testing footage available! Whoever had the job of launching an actual tank off a ramp and flying a good 30-40ft and then some probably, into a lake is a brave man! I guess BT stands for balls transporter!
You know what would've been awesome for the Finns? A bunch of re-purposed BT-7s, but with lots of machineguns on them. Maybe 4-6 in the turret. Imagine a couple of those zipping around the lines of soviet infantry.
the reason the heat rounds on the BT-42 were a failure was because they used a german 105mm round that was modified for a 114mm WW1 era british artillery howitzer. the weapon had a very slow shell velocity, much slower than that of the 105mm german howitzers, and the rounds would fail to arm properly.
Crane on the Sturmtiger was only used to load the ammunition into the vehicle. It was not used for loading the gun. The opening on top of the vehicle is just barely bigger than the shell itself which means that it is physically impossible to use the crane to load the gun.
Just a heats up @The Iron Armenian aka G.I. Haigs, the Christie Suspension wasn't manufactured by a Christie company, it was patented by Walter J. Christie in the early 1930's. The Americans at the time didn't want it, so he sold the ideas to the British and Russians, who used it to make the Cruiser line of medium tanks, and the BT series and famed T-34. Ultimately though, torsion bar and horstmann suspension turned out to be cheaper and more effective methods of getting suspension on your tank, and Christie wasn't used in new tank designs after 1944.
As a tidbit the Ratte did have one version built and was powered by diesel generators and electric motors but the only one caught fire with inadequate electrical motors and control components of the era.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the turret of the BT-42 was not of British origin, although the gun design, a QF 4.5 inch howitzer Mark II, was (I say design, because the majority of QF 4.5 in howitzers actually came from Spain). The turret itself was a Finnish creation to house a British gun. So really you could say there are 5 countries of origin: Russia for the chassis, Germany for the shell design, Britain for the gun design, Spain for the gun itself, and Finland for the turret. Sorry for being nit picky, I might be wrong anyway.

Jarredchris Gaming No. It should be at tier 4. The kugelblitz is based on the Panzer IV as well.
4 20mm in tier 3 with an m4 hull? it would literally be unstopable
MyName AChef But it's in a M4A1 hull, the frontal armor is 50mm sloped to an effective thickness of 68mm and the sides are 38.1mm thick. So 7.0 is unreasonablely high. With Wirbelwind with 4x20mm at 3.7 and the Crusader AA Mk.II at 5.0 with a single 40mm, so I would say 3.7-4.7 is a good spot. Also the M19 with twin 40mms has a br of 5.0 so anything above that would be somewhat of a downgrade for players.

The finish having to listen to polka for three days: store employees- now this is a avengers level threat
I'm no expert on tanks but the montage of the tank jumping in the water and driving on poles over the water was pretty coool. Felt like I was watching an action movie
The bt 7 has the world record of a jump in a tank
Man i go nuts for these kinda videos, make more!
"HEAT rounds are designed to ignore sloped armour"
That is wrong on so many levels...
0:20 "No prototypes"
KV-7: A prototype.
KV-7-2: A prototype.
Skink AA Tank: Three prototypes.
RBT-5: A prototype.
Gud wurk m8
TopBunkProductions He said "no prototypes or blueprints".... i think he meant only fully assembled and working prototypes and not mock-ups or unfinished tanks
Pinco Pallino true
Pinco Pallino A mock-up isn't a prototype. Also, he never mentioned only counting 'fully-assembled' or 'working' prototypes, so excluding prototypes despite over half of this list being prototypes is moronic.
@@Mr_Bunk well your channel is shit, so you have no room to talk
@Matthew McLennan Newsflash: you can enjoy something whilst criticising it at the same time. Loyalty alone doesn’t measure something’s quality. And who’s to say my criticisms weren’t learned? I didn’t just make them up.
Can I just say how much I appreciate your use of Girls und Panzer music. When the BT-42 came on and Sakjarven Polka started I was so happy.It's one of my favourite variations of the piece and the scene in which it is used is one of my favourite in the movie. Also thank you for talking about that particular tank. I was very curious about it after seeing it. Wondering why it looked like a BT-2 with a miniature KV-2 turret bolted to it.

fuck the wirbelwind. bane of anyone playing allies in Janes WWII fighters. Or axis in that one betrayal mission with the 262.
Hate to tell ya bud but the Skink is Canadian.
aah the BT-42..
the YOLO tank going in speed of sound carrying a mighty kosken korva launcher
5:39 as I said many times before NO TREDS BITCHES GuP reference
Can I has recon
the sturmtiger shot a rocket propelled 380mm to avoid recoil to obliterate the tanks structure. They were made only from damaged tiger tanks.
2:09 Did I just hear Milliliters? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
*Breaths*
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
? Millimeters
xGxPhantom Zzz millilitres
Charles O'Halloran i was sure i hears millilitres
He actually says it at 2:19
He just blurts it out at 2:19, I'm still hearing "millimeters"..
HOLY SHIT!!! watching that light tank doing jump into the river was awesome. Also imagine the Skink with a flame thrower attachment, that would of been a devastating infantry support platform.
BT42?? ever seen girls und panzer film???
asking him that?? ever seen his BT-7 video???
I'm confused
Why you asking, you can clearly hear that song from GuP in the background here xD
Herrman FEGELEIN Thank you. I'm not the only person who can hear
Henry Maude and bt42 from my country 😃
the bt 42 is displayed in parola tank museum in Finland so if you visit Finland and you like tanks that's a place to go (there is also an amos there)
9:22 What Is that music in the background when Iron Armenian talks about the skink anti aircraft sherman? It sounds good I'm just saying cause I don't know the name.
The skink,AKA,the bullet spam tank
It’s The Marines Hymn.
8:18 that tank shows up in girls und pansar der film and that song plays and omg I love that anime for all the smart refrances it has like that!
Anybody else think they should add the Skink AA to War Thunder? I think it'd be a good addition in between the M15 CGMC at BR 3.3 and the M19 at BR 5.0.
Still not in
The fact that you used the music from Girls und Panzer Der Film for the BT 42 made me happy
Gonna type stuff as I listen
The Sturmtiger vs 2 Sherman Platoons thing holds a tiny bit of merit. There was a report of a SPAG destroying a bridge that Shermans were prepping to cross. No Shermans were lost but the Bridge was leveled. Never confirmed by any allied reports if it was a Sturmtiger or Brumbar or Hummel.
Shell ricochets actually rarely happened. Most of the time rounds would be caught in the armor and leave a dent. Hence why most tanks like the KT you see after a heavy engagement it's filled with dents in the armor.
Skink is technically a Grizzly hull but they're basically the same thing so w/e. Skink was definitively not put into service because of the lack of threat from the Luftwaffe. The tank wasn't needed for infantry support if a normal Sherman could do the same thing and was already available. Polstens were Polish variants of the Oerlikon 20mm which was also the base for the Hispano-Suiza and the cannons were available, but the US was more inclined to locally produced guns and the AN/M2's which were licensed Hispanos were not very favorable due to reliability and cost, and the efforts for creating a licensed variant of the Polsten was deemed low-priority. Combined with the fact that the Army HATED changing supply lines to account for new vehicles, the need was pretty low everywhere.
But as for the next 5 vehicles, you should definitely do the Kangaroo Carrier, T14 Heavy Tank, ARL-44, T55/T55E1 Armored Cars, and the Baker 8x8 Jumping Car.
You still owe me a game lol
oh?
Haha, yeah
From what I've read the U.S. had great trouble getting their copies of the Hispano cannon to work. When the Brits suggested a mod to get them working properly, the U.S. declined to do so. Funny that the Brits, who are responsible for the spread of the IMPERIAL system of measurements have had no problems adopting metric, even in the Second World War...
Säkkijärven polkka is occasianally still played by finnish army radio jamming in training. In one exercise they jammed all FM radio frequencies, so that if we wished to listen to radio, it didn't matter what frequency, there was non-stop säkkijärven polkka on loop :D
The Skink needs to be in War Thunder.
Just after the M16, if you ask me. I main SPAA. We need more SPAA vehicles.
The finnish soldiers must have been so tired, 2 and a half days of nonstop music. God im laughing thinking about it,
"Sir can we stop now?"
"Do you want the mines to blow up?"
"No sir...."
"THEN KEEP PLAYING"
How did you talk manage to talk about the Skink for so long without mentioning it's origins?
?
The skink was designed and built in Canada based on the grizzly, the canadian lisence built sherman
I love that during the segment about the BT-42 there is polka playing in the background.... Girls und Panzer lmfao!!!
Um I think I might have found another issue with the sturm tiger that crane on the rear looks incredibly vulnerable and if that gets damaged you can't reload unless you're the fucking hulk
you flip the tank off a lump add let the shell roll
Dr.pJELY that's one way to do it
I couldn't help but laugh at that last statement.
The elephant tank is pretty cool. I saw a documentary where it was so big it just drove over a small house completely crushing it.
The next tank the bt42.
Polka starts playing
STOP FINLAND S T O P
FYI: The Christie suspension is a suspension system developed by American engineer J. Walter Christie for his tank designs. It allowed considerably longer movement than conventional leaf spring systems then in common use, which allowed his tanks to have considerably greater cross-country speed. The system was first introduced on his M1928 design, and used on all[citation needed] of his designs until his death in 1944.HEAT Round were quite effective, it was what made an effective bazooka a possibility. I doubt on a T-34 that the issue was the HEAT round but more that the T35 was quite well armored for the time. Even the Germans with their tanks in 1942 had trouble with the T-34. With a low (howitzer) velocity gun, normal anti-tank rounds would have probably not had the velocity to be effective.
thought you said there are no prototypes on the list
Each M4 company had a bulldozer blade kit. It was stored disassembled in the crate that it came in. The arms bolted to a bogie and had a bracket welded onto the front for the hydraulic cylinder. The hose ran thru the bow gunner's periscope hole to a hydraulic pump mounted on top of the transmission. It was driven by the driveshaft pulley that also powered the generator. The belt was made up of thick leather links made by Chicago Rawhide (CR) so an additional length of links came in the kit to increase the length of the belt.
The M4 Calliope was made from plywood and 60 plastic tubes that could be reloaded 2 to 3 times before becoming warped from the heat. The assembly could be released from the interior to fall away in case the tank had to make a quick getaway from incoming German artillery targeting it. The M4 also carried a detachable launcher for larger rockets dubbed Whiz-Bangs. Those rockets also were called Holy Moses when used on aircraft and rocket firing landing craft. Those were fired directly at targets.
I would suggest the khTZ-16. it's a tractor tank XD.
IDK i feel like ur talking about new Zealand when they made there own tank by slapping sheet metal on a tractor and called it bob
I think the main reason for the 'Skink' AA Tank not going into production was that the turret traverse was not fast enough to follow an attacking aircraft, whereas the 4X.40 Maxon turret on the M-16 was. The 20mm Polsten cannon that it was equipped with were good guns - a development of the excellent Oerlikon cannon. The Polsten was the secondary turret gun on the British Centurion mk 1, at the very end of the war. The Australian AC-1 Sentinel is an interesting tank, especially the variant carrying twin 25 pound field guns in it's turret. I'm also fond of the Sherman BARV (Beach Armoured Recovery Vehicle), and of the Russian T-28, and T-35. Not really a tank, but the Universal Carrier 'Mantis', is a fascinsting vehicle.
so, if its unloaded can you shoot into the barrel of it?
Nope. It had a closed breech.
8:30 I am half Finnish and my great great grandparents moved to America around ww1 so my grandmother does know a bit of Finnish and can pronounce finnish words pretty well. I showed those words to my mom and she could pronounce them well.
No KV-2 ?!?!?
John_The_Starwarsfreek it's a very known one compared to these but I'm only on the second tank so I might be wrong.
Random Mosasaurus there was a bt7 A which kinda looked like it
KV-2 was a beast, a tank to fear
It was good yet trash the barrel can't go down without breaking anything so they left the barrel up it also broke down half the time. So when they fired sometimes they would fear something would happen and it was really hard to aim
@@maccabee3753 it was a fridge with tracks
This made me want to play Tank Tank Tank. Good job. :D
I want the skink in the British tree it wold be fun
The Christie suspension system was the best suspension the U.S. Army ever adopted for its track systems. It was used on the M113 chassis which the osted support for artillery units as well as for chaparral missiles for the ADA. It was also used on the M551A1 Armored Recon/ Airborne Assault Vehicle which though it had its issues as far as reliability it never once threw a track off. The M60A1s could be looked at and they'd throw their tread. The M551 Sheridan never threw a tread. I've seen it where it has walked off both road wheels and yet it could still be walked back on with the center guides between the road wheels. It was virtually impossible screw up that suspension in fact the rest of the vehicle could be falling apart but the suspense was always solid.
The Army decided it wasn't worth using in a shooting war by 1939 so declared it to be obsolete and moved on to using the simpler and stronger VVSS.
Our Lord and savior Canadian Skink
+Canadian Jesus one day
Love the GUP sakijarven polka for the bt-42
thank god the BT42 is here... it's one ugly duck
is of beautiful perkele
Don't underestimate that Christie suspension, though.

I think Stalin is claimed to have said: "why many guns on one unit? Make for them one gun, but make it a good one!".
My dad told me that over 20 years ago lol.
girls und panzer for the win :v
I'm with yah there Erwin!
Kinda sad the BT-42 was only in Der Film, and not the TV show.
KristophShmit i still didn't watched the Film cause it's not avieble in my country :( but the series and the ova s are great
Momo Momane That's to bad m8, Der Film was great.
if nothing else works, you might be able to watch der film on a website called gogoanime (i think). i hope this helps.
5:30 was the moment i heard that song somewhere within the Girls Und Panzer Der Film
the sturmtiger was first used for anti submarine purposes
Please tell me your statement is a joke.
You can find the BT-42 in Parola armor brigade tank museum. Fun fact; if that brit howie was fired 90° toward the side the recoil was sometimes enough to flip the tanknon it's wide.
WG would rather put these tanks ingame than nerfing OP russian tanks...
6:44 the most Russian tank testing footage available! Whoever had the job of launching an actual tank off a ramp and flying a good 30-40ft and then some probably, into a lake is a brave man! I guess BT stands for balls transporter!
love the use of the girls und panzer version of sakkijarven polkka for the bt-42
I died laughing when you started talking about the BT-7 and Girls Und Panzer music came on xD
You know what would've been awesome for the Finns? A bunch of re-purposed BT-7s, but with lots of machineguns on them. Maybe 4-6 in the turret. Imagine a couple of those zipping around the lines of soviet infantry.
The Documented use of the STURMTIGER was in the Warsaw uprising you can easily find the footage on youtube
the reason the heat rounds on the BT-42 were a failure was because they used a german 105mm round that was modified for a 114mm WW1 era british artillery howitzer. the weapon had a very slow shell velocity, much slower than that of the 105mm german howitzers, and the rounds would fail to arm properly.
Crane on the Sturmtiger was only used to load the ammunition into the vehicle. It was not used for loading the gun. The opening on top of the vehicle is just barely bigger than the shell itself which means that it is physically impossible to use the crane to load the gun.
Your channel is the best find of 2017 so far!!!!! Love from Canada!!!
Just a heats up @The Iron Armenian aka G.I. Haigs, the Christie Suspension wasn't manufactured by a Christie company, it was patented by Walter J. Christie in the early 1930's. The Americans at the time didn't want it, so he sold the ideas to the British and Russians, who used it to make the Cruiser line of medium tanks, and the BT series and famed T-34.
Ultimately though, torsion bar and horstmann suspension turned out to be cheaper and more effective methods of getting suspension on your tank, and Christie wasn't used in new tank designs after 1944.
The Bt-42 section in this video have the same song from his scene in Girls und Panzer der Film. I like this reference!
a top 10 video that gives really good info, i applaud you sir, good job.
As a tidbit the Ratte did have one version built and was powered by diesel generators and electric motors but the only one caught fire with inadequate electrical motors and control components of the era.
+Kage Shi i think you thinking of the porsche tiger prototype
I like the Grand Budapest OST at the beginning
"fairly shortly"... thank god i understand what "relative means".
impatiently awaiting pt2.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the turret of the BT-42 was not of British origin, although the gun design, a QF 4.5 inch howitzer Mark II, was (I say design, because the majority of QF 4.5 in howitzers actually came from Spain). The turret itself was a Finnish creation to house a British gun.
So really you could say there are 5 countries of origin: Russia for the chassis, Germany for the shell design, Britain for the gun design, Spain for the gun itself, and Finland for the turret.
Sorry for being nit picky, I might be wrong anyway.
