    Most of us Finns are quite laid-back and some of us are stoic, but when it comes to defending our country you'll see another side of us. I just hope that we don't have to do it, but if that's the case we are ready.

    This video is shown to every recruit during their first weeks of training, it feels really intense watching it in an auditorium with 70 other conscripts. The reason why it feels so real, is because all of the people that you see on the video, are not actors, but real soldiers, news representers, border guards, police, etc. Everyone is doing their real job. Plus this is the official product of the Finnish Defence Forces, and all of the footage is actually real military training footage.

      As a Finn, I agree. Though in reality some of the soldiers and conscripts would make mistakes but none were shown in this video. This is realistic best case scenario for actual performance of Finland.

    Conscription is a peculiar thing. Think a sauna full of adult Finnish men in a men's section of a swimming pool somewhere in Finland. It's almost impossible to tell who is a construction worker and who is a CEO, who's a sales person and who's a lorry driver etc. But there's one thing you can be pretty confident: the man have spent almost a year carrying an assault riffle on daily basis and have expertise on some branch of warfare.

    In this year alone two submarine telcom cables cut by.. one just this Sunday by Chinese vessel (which was taken by Danish navy) again.. so there is asymmetrical war going on as we speak.

      That fact makes this whole thing bone chilling. Hearing the familiar voices who usually tell us our everyday news, telling about these attacks? Seeing them speaking about it in a studio we see every day? It makes it feel so real. Makes it possible to try to imagine how it would feel to watch these news in a real situation.

  • @tsuhna1167
    @tsuhna1167 3 дня назад +30

    This was made by Finnish Defence Forces and YLE, the national broadcasting company. It feels real indeed, because there are no actors. Everyone plays their own part as they would in reality. The news studios were real, the news anchors were real. We saw and heard them everyday (the layout and cast has changed since though). Also all the professional soldiers, conscripts, reservists and police were real.
    So, imagine the eerie feeling I had watching this the first time.. seeing the news anchor, who I was used to see every day updating me on world affairs, telling me that Finland is at war. I almost checked the time IRL because the president was to give a speech at 1600, lol..

    For us Finn's, this kind of situation would feel very personal. Because those soldiers who would go to defend this country would be our brothers, fathers, sons and friends. We are so small nation and we don't have a professional army. It's just us. So even watching an exercise like this, it feels pretty personal thing. And we are proud our systems and we trust our military, it's our family. And by the way, there is no actors in this video. Only reserve.

    Battlefield 2020 is quite emotional.. Especially these days when you know the situation in the world and how, for example, the annexation of Crimea and the war in Ukraine started.. armed persons in green uniforms occupy areas. I get even more chills down my spine when I watch the attack on Hanko on video... I live in Hanko and I have also worked in the free port area that can be seen in the video. A good simulation video of the attack and its countermeasures.

    It's made by the Finnish Defense Forces. They started to use film as part of the training, documentation and communication in 1925. There's this 90th anniversary video about that from 2015. No subtitles, but interesting footage nevertheless: "Kuvaustoiminta Puolustusvoimissa 90 vuotta - Katsaus koulutuselokuvan vuosikymmeniin". They have been internationally awarded for some of their films, E.g. for 'Taistelukenttä 1998', which is also available for viewing. And as it happens, a similar series to that 'Battlefield 2020' is coming soon on the Finnish TV: "Konflikti X Varusteleka".

    The soldiers, news anchors and all the other people are real. The level of a Finnish conscript corresponds to the level of a US Marine - at least and that is not just my opinion but the opinion of an American commander who reports to America on Finland's defense capabilities for his job. When talking about saunas and soldiers, it is worth considering that a Finnish sauna is very different from other saunas in the world (except Estonia). The same applies to the training of Finnish Defense Forces conscripts.

      @mikorossi1959, the level of a Finnish conscript indeed corresponds to the level of a US Marine, if this all is happening on a Finnish terrain, where the Finns have a relatively big homeground advantage. They have trained during their whole military career in this kind of an environment, but the US Marines only for a short time. But if we put those two groups training in a desert or in a jungle, then the US Marines would certainly prevail.

Military training (especially versatility), skills and character matter a lot. Except here in Finland, of course, we have a big advantage.

    This is even more powerful when you know that all the journalists and military personnel are really who they say they are.
    This seems to be a film produced by the defense forces. When you add the dates, 2020 and a few thousand kilometers south, 2022, so it cannot be without thinking, that is this hybrid influencing in some direction? "We know what you're doing and don't try it here". This was the situation in 2020 when we weren't yet part of NATO. Now the situation is completely different, because there is more power in the background.

    The video felt frighteningly realistic. I completed my own service time in the defense forces in the late 90s as a military police, and even then there was a lot of practice in managing the situations described in the video. War doesn't start these days (if it ever did) by issuing a declaration of war and then attacking. There is often a long gray zone before actual military operations. Maybe you should watch older video, Sotilaspoliisit, Military Police in Action - Guards Jaeger Regiment

    I like how the events of the video escalate slowly and how they portray different aspects, like the way everything could be reported about in the media. And as many have said, the news cast is familiar faces, so that makes it feel real. Maybe the plot feels a bit optimistic and the acting is not perfect in all the places. So not a movie, but that is to be expected. Excellent idea and good execution.

    I think this is a prequel to taistelukenttä 1998 in a way. That older one shows what keeps happening after this one. Even though it is older, I think it still has some value, mostly because majority of reservists are not urban jaegers, but infantry. Ironically the gear in 1998 version would be more on point today, since we have mountains of old gear in stock reserved to arm a full army. There is much more of old pattern camos, old style rifles, even the old style harness systems than the modern ones.
    Please, react to that one too! It has some good acting!
    My favourite easter egg in that old taistelukenttä is when conscripts are loading ammo truck, shoveling dirt and complaining about the heavy boxes, the radio in the background plays a song by J. Karjalainen that translates: "I am a man, I am a man, to whom nothing ever happens"
    Things happen when least expected.

I think finnish army has this own combat cam or something like it. They usually are professional military because you cant let just any random crew to film and edit military stuff and the quality of the combatcam videos usually are sick af.
