OMG I think you made me realize something. Germans point of view: the threat of ennemy's forces grows wider and stronger; lets make BIGGER weapons! Russians point of view: we're getting fewer and loner; let's make LOT of weapons! I don't know if that makes sense...but for me it is
the former was probably easier and more convenient to use at a close range, i suppose the naval cannons would have a bombardment purpose for buildings and positions
German High Command: “we need more panzer III’s and IV’s to counter the numerous soviet T34/85” Adolf Hitler: “I want a tank the size of the Reichstag!”
For the non-german folks here who are wondering why the Heck it is called Maus and Ratte: Maus original name wasn't actually Maus. It was named "Mammut" (Mammoth) which actually fits for its Weight and Size. The Nickname Maus was actually a Trick to let the allies believe that they just build another smaller tank and not a Superheavy one. The same would count for the Ratte Design which would have ended up just as Landkreuzer P.1000
I can imagine Hitler with a Toy Model of the Ratte playing with it "Haha Die Allied Schweinhunds!" "Ohh nooo!!" -Fegelein Bursts in- "My Fuhrer, the Eastern Front is collapsing agai-" *Shoves Toys into desk* "FEGELEIN! KNOCK NEXT TIME!"
When I was a kid, I thought superweapons like this were awesome and terrifying. Now that I am an adult, I find the "practical" ways of fighting wars to be much more horrifying on an existential level. The depressing truth is, if any of today's armies were to build a Ratte, it could be located in moments using satellite, and eradicated with 100% precision using drone strikes and AI before it could even leave the factory.
Klaus: "Hans, We need a better transmission" Hans: "More Armor, you say?" Klaus: "Nein, a better transmission!" Hans: "Bigger Kannon, you say?" Klaus: "God Damnit Hans." Hans: "Ah..Battleship Kannon!" Klaus: "Ja hans, Ja!"
“Sir, I don’t think that’s wise to build a tank that big...” “If there’s anything I don’t want to hear right now, it’s your ‘I don’t think that’s wise!’ speech!”
It was so overwhelmingly in favor of the allies compared to the actual German army. The Germans at Normandy were basically minor garrisons while the weight of the German coastal defense was in Calais, as the Allies had deceived the Germans into thinking that was where the landing would be. D-Day theoretically should have been a cakewalk if all the preliminary operations had gone well (they didn’t).
it's kind of like how the usda has really loose standards for "free range" chickens, where a square meter extension with access to the sky makes them "free range" for information on this you could watch supersizeme 2 : Holy Chicken, I think it's here on youtube
Id wonder if they had the accuracy to hit it considering how innacurate ww2 strategic bombing was and a couple of p47 who had to get close would probably get shredded by the flak vierling
@@bobsjepanzerkampfwagen4150 given......they need a squad if bomber to do tis...... But I assume the ratte would have it own air defense to combat such air threat.
@@Jargenic what do you think happens, if contents of nuclear reactor are scattered everywhere? Which is what would happen, should we have tank on nuclear power destroyed.
@@ceu160193 that is not how nuclear reactors are made, they can take incredible amounts of damage, they have auto shut downs and more safety measures than you could think of
@@tomsoki5738 to make tank at least somewhat practical(not giant target for enemy air support), it would have to be smaller, which means less protection for reactor. On land you can't just make vehicle too large.

A tank like this would depend on air superiority or just keeping the air forces occupied. That, and developing a brand new type of armor to place on the roofs of the vehicle to absorb and disperse the impact and explosion of bombs.
My guess is it would simply require it's own escort posse so to speak. Anti-air guns in a vicinity around the tank in addition to on the tank itself. A constant escort of fighters above to keep bombers at bay.
@@thegamingpigeon3216 True. In fact, I'd say it's actually more viable today since we have lasers and ai-guided AA weaponry. The lasers could detonate bombs and missiles at a safe distance.
I imagine that if it would ever be used it would probably have it's own synthetic fuel factory, because transporting such amount of fuel to the frontline just for this vehicle would be a nightmare.
@@ltcarlsen2152 the bismarck was sunk by other ships it was damaged by a swordfish but even the anti-air weapons werent really designed for those planes
I think someone forgot what the "blitz" part or Blitzkrieg means. This would have been a relatively easy target for bombers. Slow, conspicuous and relatively soft, I'd imagine a grand slam bomb would make quite a mess of it. You'd only operate it when air superiority had been established. Imagine trying to beach this thing off a massive landing craft! I don't know if it could even move on sand!
The irony of Germany’s largest tanks named after the smallest animals: Panther (44 tons) Tiger (54 tons) Maus (100 tons) Ratte (1000 tons) Water bear (♾) Yes, I know the real animals tigers are actually larger than panthers and rats are larger than mice. But at least you get the joke, right?
TBH, they really missed out on the Panther and Tiger being the other way around since tigers are larger than panthers. Its actually the same with Mice and rats, rats are larger than mice. But tbh, I think it turned out much better the way the named it, as I think the Maus really does look like it would be a mouse, just super large, while the panthers and tigers look the part as panthers and tigers in a mechanical way.
@@ussindianapolis487 every country had their own definition of a heavy tank and medium tank. Also back when the B1 Bis was considered a heavy tank, its weight class was considered a heavy tank, and that was early in the war. Germanies medium tanks only got heavier while their heavy tanks were much heavier.
No but... The math doesn't add up. A rat is bigger than the mouse, and the ratte tank is bigger than the maus tank. You have to go with a bigger animal for this comment to be true.
@@darkstock5103 alright but I was refering specificaly to the Maus and the Ratte. Still, whatever. Let's end this here because I'm already getting hate for some reason.
"Let's make a gigantic tank, with super duper thicc armor, Battleship cannon and powerful AA guns!" "Sounds like beast, but how do we transport it to battle?" "Good question"

They were also planning on two bigger tanks later on in the war, the p.1500 "monster" and the p.2000 "Gott". The p.2000 was planned to be so big that its secondary weapons were the main cannons of the p.1000.
@@mobydickies8135 and? The usually hard core anti gay people are later found to be gay. So then Hitler probably had those same feelings but repressed them.
I designed a bigger one, with a main armament of 8 Gustaf railway guns configured as one hugge auto loading gattling gun, mounted on a heavily armoured nuclear power station, driven on a platform of one hundred and fifty tracked excavators. There's also scope for a hovercraft version.
@@altraeon6436 Did I not mention the two foot thick armour and 20mm auto cannon hedgehog bristles defense system? (I should have mentioned the defense system.) It's only weakness? With a crew of 85, accommodation for 250 passengers, three months of stores, a fully euqipped operating theater and all the heli-pads, (I should have mentioned the heli-pads) the enemy knows that this tank's main weakness is a lack of parking, and the risk of huge traffic jams during shift changes.

A tank like this would depend on air superiority or just keeping the air forces occupied. That, and developing a brand new type of armor to place on the roofs of the vehicle to absorb and disperse the impact and explosion of bombs.
This tank would require multiple fighter wings escort in 24 hour rotation. Constant air umbrella ☂
My guess is it would simply require it's own escort posse so to speak. Anti-air guns in a vicinity around the tank in addition to on the tank itself. A constant escort of fighters above to keep bombers at bay.
@@thegamingpigeon3216 True. In fact, I'd say it's actually more viable today since we have lasers and ai-guided AA weaponry. The lasers could detonate bombs and missiles at a safe distance.

@@Silverin_ Tell that to the Bismarck and How that turns out
@@ltcarlsen2152 the bismarck was sunk by other ships it was damaged by a swordfish but even the anti-air weapons werent really designed for those planes
I think someone forgot what the "blitz" part or Blitzkrieg means.
This would have been a relatively easy target for bombers. Slow, conspicuous and relatively soft, I'd imagine a grand slam bomb would make quite a mess of it. You'd only operate it when air superiority had been established. Imagine trying to beach this thing off a massive landing craft! I don't know if it could even move on sand!
Given how big its tread base it, I doubt soft patches and sand would be too much of a issue, unless it was in a desert, beach or a swamp.

The irony of Germany’s largest tanks named after the smallest animals:
Panther (44 tons)
Tiger (54 tons)
Maus (100 tons)
Ratte (1000 tons)
Water bear (♾)
Yes, I know the real animals tigers are actually larger than panthers and rats are larger than mice. But at least you get the joke, right?
TBH, they really missed out on the Panther and Tiger being the other way around since tigers are larger than panthers. Its actually the same with Mice and rats, rats are larger than mice. But tbh, I think it turned out much better the way the named it, as I think the Maus really does look like it would be a mouse, just super large, while the panthers and tigers look the part as panthers and tigers in a mechanical way.
Thats nothing
They even named their own remote controlled minitank drones The Goliath

you know what is even better?
t 34 32 tonnes and is medium tank
b1 32 tonnes and is heavy tank
panther 45 tonnes and is medium tank
problem?
@@ussindianapolis487 every country had their own definition of a heavy tank and medium tank. Also back when the B1 Bis was considered a heavy tank, its weight class was considered a heavy tank, and that was early in the war. Germanies medium tanks only got heavier while their heavy tanks were much heavier.
Tank bigger than the ratte: exists
The Germans: let’s call it, the mite

No but... The math doesn't add up. A rat is bigger than the mouse, and the ratte tank is bigger than the maus tank. You have to go with a bigger animal for this comment to be true.

They were also planning on two bigger tanks later on in the war, the p.1500 "monster" and the p.2000 "Gott". The p.2000 was planned to be so big that its secondary weapons were the main cannons of the p.1000.
