DShK 12.7mm Heavy Machinegun - Russian Firepower At It's Finest
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- The DShK 1938 (ДШК, for Дегтярёва-Шпагина Крупнокалиберный, Degtyaryova-Shpagina Krupnokaliberny, "Degtyaryov-Shpagin Large-Calibre") is a Soviet heavy machine gun firing the 12.7×108mm cartridge. The weapon was also used as a heavy infantry machine gun, in which case it was frequently deployed with a two-wheeled mounting and a single-sheet armour-plate shield. It took its name from the weapons designers Vasily Degtyaryov, who designed the original weapon, and Georgi Shpagin, who improved the cartridge feed mechanism. It is sometimes nicknamed Dashka (familiar form of female name Daria) in Russian-speaking countries, from the abbreviation.

Matsimus Gaming could you make a video about the PH scout rangers, a video about your opinion of them and how good they are as a military unit and their culture...
I have one but my father will not allow to fire it
Matsimus Gaming Video is great but you have shown not only DShK, but KORD machine gun too. Though I am not sure if it is really a flaw as it looks even more awesome and uses 12.7 cal too.
You gotta do a video on the Ma Deuce now to be fair, lol.
it is possible to arrange for you to shoot it. find me....
i love how you use Russian classical music in the background.
1812 Overture by Tchaikovsky

It’s called huma huma huma look it up
"Nothing about this gun says sweety" Slavic culture has traditionally had this weird thing with nicknames. While Americans and other western powers used terms/names of empowerment to show their respect for weapons platforms, Russians instead show their respect through endearment. Westerners show respect through fear of what a weapon can do to their enemies, while easterners show respect to a weapon through the gratitude of what it does to help them. So they feel completely comfortable calling their best weapons "Sweety", "honey", "little cobra", "babushka", "Tulip", "Frog" - the kinds of names one would give to their pet/loved ones - because the nickname isn't meant for the enemy, it is meant to signify the relationship between it and those who use them. Generally speaking, the friendlier/more disarming the name is, the more the soldiers like it.
And for a culture as traditionally cold and stoic as the slavs, that is absolutely heart warming.
So you mean I can call my PKM the Great Cute Bunny and disrespect my enemies by shouting across the trench line saying "you are being shot at by my cute Bunny" and it's a perfectly acceptable practice?
As Slav it comes easy to name even tank with hearth warming name.
Yes, Špagin was involved - he of the PPŠ….
The funnier thing is her nickname "Dushka" mean "sweetie" in Russian. Yes, they really love this gun before the NSV was invented.
Kusakabe Shinhoto The nickname is quite obvious. In Russian the name of this gun has only 3 letters: "D ", "Sh ", and "K ". Sh-sound ( as in shower) being just a single letter. So it shouldn't be pronounced D-S-H-K, but D-Sh-K. so you just add 2 vowels and you have Dushka.
D - Degtyarev (surname), Sh - Shpagin (surname), K - Krupnokaliberniy (large-caliber).
Not "Dushka", we name it "Dashka", this is variant of name Dar'ya.
As ironic as 'minigun'
Dushka-Duška is a female name in Serbia
I'll take 2, mounted on the back of a HiLux, but i'll leave the technical details to you...
I see what you did there. Have a like.
BA dam tssss
I like technical stuffs
Spikey DaPikey l
I see what you did there.
The Soviets used to put this on the back of Gaz trucks and called it a AA gun
They did the same but with 4 maxim guns duct taped together
Aah... Warthunder...
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
4? I don’t remember 4 Russian 50.Cals in a truck
@@apple222sickly Maxim guns are 7.62mm machine guns
they always treat anything else the same way. that's standard procedure to put all their junk in the back of a truck and to give it a new name, introducing it as a new weapon system
Helicopters: *are thin skinned for the most part*
DShK: I´m gonna end this man´s whole career
I think the DSHK is my second favorite heavy machine gun. Next to the Russian 14.5mm I believe it ia
You hum it, I'll play it :op
The Stoned Videogame Nerd do you know kvp
Panzerkampfwagen VI ausf. E kpv is the infantry version kpvt is the tank/armoured vehicles version
why you want to be russian when the zombie apocalypse comes.
Krupnokaliberniy (large caliber) pulemot (machinegun) Vladimirova (by komrade Vladimoirov) is the standard, KPVT (for tanks) is the remote fired in the BTR and elsewhere. Cheers
My papasha was not happy about my dshka until she shoot down stuka.
U may now have a cookie

As a veteran of OEF, I can testify as to the fearsome effect of this weapon. The vast majority of our casualties came from IEDs, but these were probably the #2. As you would imagine, even our extremely effective body armor offers no protection, even at long range, with the exception of bullet fragments.
Vehicles do not hold up well, either; Armoured glass and viewpoints will stop a couple rounds if you're lucky, but I have seen this gun hit an MRAP door so hard and so many times that it peened, bent or otherwise jammed it against frame so tightly it may as well have been welded shut.
If I have made mistakes I am sorry. I am still learning the firearm and its differences to other guns similar to the DShK out there. Thanks for watching and have a great day!

Please try to focus on quality and accuracy of your videos. Keep up the good job.
OK DUSHKA, MAKE MY DAY
Big Sandy and Knob Creek are machine gun shoots in the US that always have a DShK or two, and they do let you shoot but it can be pricey depending on the system in fact your outro may be one of them
DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA CLICK, WAAAAAAGHHHHHH!!!
Usability

DSHK is no longer in large use by Russian military. Nowdays they use NSV as primary HMG. Large numbers of KORD are also in service(you actually had some footage of Kord there 3:15).
Now when you mention it. It's actually pretty difficult to say which one it is. Im used to seeing those single handle-buttstocks only on kords, but seems that russkies use them on NSV's too. With closer look it really seems to be NSV.
No KPV?
NSV is all so used in Finland, as ITKK 12.7 fi.wikipedia.org/wiki/NSV
While replaced in front line service, the DShk is still widely used and encountered. It is a formidable weapon, in the same league as the legendary M2
good info
14:34
Realized you should’ve edited in a compilation of these guns firing, with “Kalinka” in the backround
Is okay, 1812 sounds like "A nu chiki briki v damke!"
Or Kazachok

Barrel length: 1,070 mm
Effective firing range: 2,000 m
Maximum firing range: 2,500 m

Muzzle energy: 18,537 J (855 gr)
Armour penetration: 25 mm / 0° / at 500 m (57-BZ-542)
Why no range listed for the armor penetration of the M2? Is it classified or just a typo? Either way we can see both weapons are very comparable. I would go so far as to say interchangeable as far as battlefield capabilities are concerned.
I didn't find any trustworthy source about Raufoss's armour piercing capabilities and yes, they are really quite similar and interchangeable as weapons.
Lynx Both were developed for machine guns (12.7x99 is 50 BMG, meaning Browning Machine Gun). By the way Russian antimaterial sniper rifle shoot the 14.5x114 mm cartridge
Wow thank you for useful information
Hahaha... cancerous social media. Agree with you on that.
3:38 "I am heavy weapons guy and this is my weapon"
Those knob creek clips are a nice touch. Loving the "small" arms vids
matsimus comments on phlydaily's video where he used a DShK armed truck in war thunder and uploads this video days later...
hmmmmm
I fired a ten round burst at Knob Creek two years ago. The blast was tremendous. It was like being at a rock concert, you could feel the bass (blast) in your body.
0:07 : when i see the flying cockroach
Thank you!! I've been hunting for a detailed video on the DShK for years! Ever since I've seen combat footage from the Middle East, I wanted to know more about this incredible weapon.
In war war 2 Russian army were puting a DHKA MSG on a truck truck and voila a self propeled anti aireceaft gun
Grammar 100
Low flying aircraft hate this gun! Find out how in the link below!
The Kord is newer :P
Also, make a video about the Russian gatling guns (GSch-6-23 and GSch-6-30, maybe also on the GSch-2-30)
GSch-series are not gatling, it uses gas from gun shot to rotate barrels, no engine power required=Less weight, mass, size, cheaper, effective, actually have more RPM than gatling 6-barrels,with only 2-3 barrels used
олег бурдин I know, but saying gatling style is more understable for most ppl,
the only issue that I know if about gas operated multirotatingbarrel desings is that it induces heavy vibration other than that I would say that they are superior to US multibarrel weapons.
(i also find it funny how the GSCH-2-30 has almost the same RoF while having only 2 barrels and being much much lighter than the GAU-8)
Actually those are GSh-30-6, GSh-23-6, etc. The GSh-30-2 does 50 round per sec, compared to the 65 of the GAU-8. 😁 Awesome! And lets include its origin, the GSh-23L!
Are you reading this, Mats? :)
Happy new x-mas and whatever in advance!
The Russians prefer writing first barrel amount then caliber :P, AK-630 for example, 6 barrels 30 caliber.
If you want to be really precise then it would be 6К30ГШ aka 6K30GSh (see barrel amount is still writen first)
Awesome video. If you can you should do a video on the KPV Heavy Machine Gun in 14.5x114mm
would be cool to own one with the classic mount and shield
also do you want one for home defense or what?
honey there is theif in the home
i got this just got to sandbag my DShk first
Viorel viorel nah I'd use it to overthrow a future possible tyrannical government like we did to the British
Thomas Jefferson good luck trying to beat the government’s m1a2 (possibly a3 if they really want to stop a civil war) tanks with a world war 1 era weapon, i believe in you.
damn, i forgot. it's obviously too mechanically advanced for the great war era, stupid me (not even being sarcastic here).
ParaBellum i was more looking at the fact that it fires 12.7 mm
I Laughed at the Comment; Had
'Cover & Conceal Under Review' after any Encounter with this Beast !!
Good 1 & the other comments as well .
Just 2 mention,
Well Done on Your Very deserved "Medal" !
👏👏👏👍👍
Used it agains apache 1999 Serbia vs Nato. 4 chopper down.
5:33 I guess it is worth mentioning that the "young guy" who modified DK to become "Dushka" later came up with another equally little-known gun design that got equally funny nickname.
PPSh-41 "Papasha" (daddy in Russian)
Can you do a vid on the KPV 14.5mm please?
yes! we want a KPV video!
The background Beethoven is a great touch and the volume is perfect - you should use this or something similar always.
Talk about the kord
I agree
Da!
I love the spent shell ejection port. Looks like a mini torpedo tube.
Take care of our "pre-loved" Hornets. :)
Came in Albania we have alot of 12.7 :)
I’ve never seen the DSHK with a bipod before... or with that Barrett style muzzle brake... I didn’t even know they made an infantry portable DSHK!
Yeah no kidding, I was pleasantly surprised when Matsimus showed me the part in his video that showed the bi podded DSHK
it's a ukropian field modification for its hordes of baby killers... Not an official modification.
I initially thought this was the PKM. But wow. The Dushka! Nice. I meant to type more, so here's my follow up. What a bae of a machine gun this is. And yes, I do agree with you, it's got an interesting nickname for something that spews pure blyat at its targets.
Ficus Tindley all Russian guns have nice names) flowers, minerals, coats)))
My favourite is the 2S1 "Gvozdika=Carnation". It's almost cute! 😁
Haha my first girlfriend was named Dushka.
The first clip with the night time machine gun shoot with explosions is Knob Creek which is right down the road from my house.
Talk about the KPV!
Thanks for ur videos and for showing not only nato's weapon but also russian.
On 3:45 you have video of NSV machinegun, not DShK.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NSV_machine_gun
In Russian Armed Forces DShK now mainly remains in reserve being replaced by NSV and Kord.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kord_machine_gun
Guys who use DShK on bipod (5:20) are most likely Ukrainians judging by uniform. Due to the poor state of their army in 2014 they being forced to use old machineguns like DShK (with modern improvements like bipod, muzzle brake, stock) and sometimes even Maxims.
Know it's a 3month old comment but those guys are Polish and seeing as one of the guys when they're discussing sommit has a Romanian (I think) patch, it's a combined country exercise.
"I am the man that arranges the blocks that continue to fall from up above. Come, Muscovite. Let the workers unite. A collective regime of peace and love"
I work so hard in arranging the blocks but the landlord and taxman bleed me dry. But the workers will rise we will not compromise for we know that the old regime must die."
I am the man that arranges the blocks that are building a highly secret base. Hip hip hoora for the USSR we are sending our men to outer space
Guys, you better don't talk about this. Someone will inform some organizations and they'll do bad things with you. It's better to neutral or stupid for you :)
To be neutral*
Why russian weapons always look so beautiful to me?!! 😍😙😍😙
I would love to see more of the newer Russian KORD HMG
3:15 that a KORD not a DShK
EDIT: That was actually NSV my bad... ...now I look stupid...
Do a review of the KORD pls. :P
or Gulag lol
Yep, actually you are right... My bad...
I recovered one of these in Afghanistan in 2012 after a drone strike. The barrel was still hot to the touch at the time.
I was just using this in ArmA, heh heh!
Wren Tamayo killing off some useless A.I. ??? Lol
Matsimus Gaming OH YEAH! Until a helicopter crashed on top of my UAZ.
How does a helo manage to crash on top of your UAZ? I've never played Arma before so I'm actually curious now.
Its an awesome game you should try it
Ficus Tindley I went to editor and spawned a massive fleet of UH-1’s and managed to shoot the pilot on one of them flying towards me and then boom, dead.
I think the trailer becoming a tripod is probably the coolest part lol
And not a single Russian name was said correctly... :D
They definitely used these up in the RC East Region of Afghanistan. Was engaged by a team one time and it was seriously not fun. Luckily we had a few M2’s and MK19 Grenade Launchers that we were able to use.
The wrath of god in HMG form personified.
That footage from Syria at the beginning is pretty cool.
I am heavy weapons guy.
Heavy Weapons Guy: "I am heavy weapons guy, and this is my...*realizes he's looking at a DSHK, and not at a gatling gun*"
DSHK: Sup :P
Heavy Weapons Guy: Oh my god...SASHA!!!
A TANGO BUSTER HUH?! NIIIIICE!!
Glad you're getting that rifle instead of a gfx card!👍
0:05 "Oh mer gerd WHAT'S HAPPENING?" "I HAVE NO IDEA!!! TOO MUCH AWESOMEZ!!! HALP!!!"
This thing must have shredded early tanks and half-tracks in the early second world war!
A whole 127 mm penetration!
Need to do the KPV Heavy artillery machine gun next, Matsimus!!!
I just love the adjustable sit for big ass gunner
12:35 "That gun is used to kill pepole"oh come on :D really?
Yes rly
I fired one of these with the ANA in Afghanistan in 2005. It breathes fire!!
Dushka goes dush dush dush dush du-
*CHK-CHK* Dush dush dush dush dush
With optics and infra red ,this old boiler still delivers the goods.
4:54 nice ukrainian army footage :)))
really glad I found this channel
You were in Kandahar? When were you there? I was there from 2011-2012.
firebat 47 2008
Cool. That was when I joined the US Army.
I was there in 2012. 3-2SBCT that's why I'm awake at 3am 😂
Matsimus My commanding officer was in Kandahar in 2008
Just following a glorious tradition since 1839 right?
Looking forward to shoot one in Slovakia this upcomming summer like other machineguns.
Kpv next!
The first thing that comes to my mind when I see this gun is the ghost station from Metro: 2033 where you have to spray down the mutant rodents
What about those ammo backbacks that feed into machine guns? some Russian company made one for pkm, and an American company made one for the 240b.
The Russian backpack contains 500 rounds and it simply feeds the rounds over your shoulder into the gun. Pretty awesome
Lol using the 1812 Overture as background music is pretty epic
You should do a video on the German MG3
Yay DEUTSCHE BIAS!!!!!!!
I think the Dushka is overall a good weapon, more reliable than the M2 due to its gas system, but to heavy and unbalanced for modern combat use. That's why the Red Army adopted the NSV Utes in 1971, while the M2, a less advanced weapon, is still in service. Certainly the Dushka could have simply been upgraded, with a new recoil suppressor and muzzle brake (something in fact the Soviets did, with the M1938-M, even if they didn't managed to made it lighter, more balanced and comfortable). Quoting a US marine: "This weapon system has a tremendous, tremendous amount of energy. It's not very fun to shoot [...] it's like firing two M2 at the same time"
Screw the Dishka, gimme a KORD!
Also, I have a massive "respect" (read hard-on) for this gun too.
Hi, Matsimus and guests! I'm from Ukraine and as far as I know, these HMGs are used on the east of Ukraine by both sides. It is used as an anti sniper and anti material weapons. What about rounds: the large-caliber cartridge 12.7x108 mm with the B-30 armor-piercing bullet was created by Soviet designers in 1930 as ammunition for a large-caliber machine gun and anti-tank rifle. For the first time, the 12.7x108 cartridge was used in a large-caliber DShK machine gun (Dyagterev, Shpagin, large-caliber) (translated from ukrainian). Here is the link with more info about cartridges for DSk: weaponland.ru/board/patron_127kh108/50-1-0-256 , it's in russian but Google translate may help you!
at 4:10 Thats NOT the DSchK, Thats a Kord!
Just keep holding the trigger. I want to see it fire non stop.🤤🤩
Also, could you possibly do a video on the PPsh-41?
Derptank maybe :-)
Derptank my favourite SMG
One of the most iconic firearms of the Second World War. Also my favourite SMG from the USSR.
and being used in ukraine
Cocking handle is the third/bottom horizontal wooden handle located at the trigger mechanism area.
Boom
That video was fantastic! I enjoyed it a lot and I love your enthusiasm!
Not gonna do the NVST?
Panzerwaffe maybe I will
Matsimus Gaming the CHAD DsHK. The Virgin NVST.
Matsimus Gaming maybe kpv(kpvt)14.5mm^^
some of footage in video NSVT/Kord ( not sure which one)
I would enjoy a kord, or zpu 23mm video
6:26 looks like a major improvement especially with the recoil system
It pronounces in russian like "Dæ -shæ -ka", if someone is interested
13:10 as you may have seen before the sight goes up to "33" which means 3300meters, so A LOT
What is the music at the beginning?
It's Prokofiev - Dance of the Knights
0:00
Me and the boys playing dodgeballl
Could you do a video on the KORD
He did!
Saw one of these on a Somali pirate boat in 2007..It was a holy shit moment, the pirate boat was taken out by an indian naval vessel which literally blew it away once it saw the DShK on the front. We were re-roling a Lynx Helo to surface attack (M3M 0.50cal) but the Indian Navy beat us to the punch.
russia now uses the nsv and kord HMGs rather than the dated dshk.
I don't know what the fuck was going on in that intro footage; but I fucking love it.
Tom Meakin knob creek night shoot

Ma Deuce >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dushka
Callsign-YukiMizuki There's really no practical difference between them. But I agree
rowsdower Doesnt have wheels.
What if we love both the Ma Deuce and the Dushka?
Ficus Tindley
And be civilized about it?
Tychus thats HERESY
Doesn't Russia us kvpt now
I never used this gun myself but some of the Norwegian forces was working with an international team in Lebanon so they used it. I think it was Finland that supplied them with these babies. Rest of us used the M2. Pretty sure I would be very quick to find a big spot in my heart for this gun too if it was mounted to my panzer, it look so brutish, its lovely! I know there was some issues with them but not quite sure what it was.
14.5 mm next?
DShK is so good that is still in use by Mobile Infantry (Starship Troopers) - see twin DShk on towers!
Love to use it on arma
i've seen the DshK the most as a tank turret mounted weapon.
Hey Matsimus... you can use "Blyat" from time to time ^_^ it will suit quite well talking about those beasts :)
Nice background music, the 1812 Overture 👍
