I can't believe no one has suggested those machine guns were used to discourage enemies from climbing the tank. Many Soviet tanks used to have a machine gun on the back of their turrets for this reason.
It must had been funny if they tried to use all 4 external machine guns at the same time. The driver would be rocking the tank back and forth trying to spray rounds in as well as suddenly breaking and accelerating trying to get the elevation correct, while the gunner and commanders try to move the turret arguing about where the shots are going as they try to look though the periscopes while the tank is bouncing around, haha.
The machine guns was only used to keep enemy soldiers away from the tank, a common practice by soldiers from any army was to throw grenades or explosives into a hatch to kill the crew or fire RPGs at it since the tank cannot engage any threat that was close to it with its main gun.
The Soviets actually had dedicated anti tank units that specialized in a close combat anti tank role. They mostly used standard or available infantry equipment to show the infantry they could fight back (or propaganda units if you want to look at it that way, they were never that effective compared to more conventional anti tank guns)
Maybe to protect the rear of the tank from enemy infantry trying to take pot shots at the back of the tank. I'm willing to bet a Molotov Cocktail thrown at the rear engine bay would easily disable this tank. So I'm betting they put the machine guns to protect the tank from that.
beardo52 ....the FICTIONAL storm trooper helmet looks similar to the front of this REAL tank which far predates the conception of the ridiculous cartoon like storm trooper character.
"We need more room for vodka, Glorious Stalin." "THEN MAKE EVERYTHING WITHIN THE TURRET AND HULL VODKA!" "But where are we going to put the machine guns?!" True story.
The rear-facing machine guns might've been for keeping infantry from climbing onto the tank like those turret rear machine guns other russian heavy tanks had but with twice as much firepower.
The Rear mounted guns on the turret could probably be used to prevent enemy infantry from getting up on the rear of the tank. Since turning the turret and Shooting them would be an easy way to clearing any infantry trying to climb ontop of the tank.
Fun fact the reason the is7 wasn’t really produced was because it weighed 65 tons and back then they had a weight limit for a tank and the is7 passed that limit by almost 10 tons
Yeah it was the weight limit on Soviet railways, they transport tanks from factories on trains bc they can't drive them for thousands of kms to where they're needed.
I saw one of these Stalin 3's take 7 or 8 rounds of 105mm ap rounds on the front glacis and the turret. They bounced off! This tank was designed in the mid 1940'S! Who else but the Russians!
***** sure. But I think the majority are blueprint or borderline fictional. Take tier ten for example. I think there is 4 vehicles there that existed at all.
I suspect the designing went like this: after research, the team presented Stalin with a supremely effective tank-killer, capable of defeating any tank on the planet. He- a novice with overwhelming power- asked why a tank-killer had no machineguns. The designers then looked at each other... "Okay... You're the Boss..."
Chief I think that those fixed machine gun positions were basically defensive measures. If you notice the forward, fixed position MGs are located towards the rear, so as to cover the entire side length of the tank against Infantry.. who are trying to possibly climb up onto the tank or place explosives on it etc. I do not believe that they were intended for medium or long range usage.
8:35 THIS gun only to (in the museum) show, however orginally it can be lowered and can be controlled without going to top of the tank, however the is-7 nearly unfinished or had break down issues. Mark my words
The back machine guns were a attempt to keep tank killing infantry squads from climbing on the tank from behind and destroying it. The kv1 also had a machine gun in the back of the turret I believe. The Japanese equipped some of their tanks with back firing machine guns too. Seriously you were not aware of this chief ? The German Porsche Elephant is a good example of what happens when you have no secondary armament. It was hunted like a dog by Russian infantry when the Germans attempted to use it as a primary break through tank at Kursk. Were all these machine guns needed on this tank? Certainly not but more is better then none or just one in the turret. There were many instances of german tank drivers having to "hose down" the back sides of their own lead panzers with their front machine guns. Even HE was used fired on the back of their own tanks when they ran out of MG/a to drive off Russian tank hunter squads jumping on the back of lead element armor. I imagine this was a real worry to the designers that's why all the machine guns. Oh and one more thing. The did a pretty wise thing IMO about NOT cutting into the front plate of this tank for a machine gun port that would certainly weaken it's armor. It would have been better to fix a remote machine gun for the driver IMO.
But those on IS-7 (Execpt for anti air one) is FIXED. Not rotatable. No elevation or depression at all. I think infantry is sure to avoid the guns and climb on.
Yeah but ball mounts can be flung back into the tank when a tank round hits it thus killing the crew. Fixed or not its a gun and its not gonna get you killed.
If this tank comes out for WT it'll probably be a premium and that Lower frontal glacias and the cupola is going to be the last nail in the coffin from the Cheat-FS spam.
+Luis Cayetano thats how you spell stromg when you are derping with russians Example: Russian tenk very stronk because we heve the sekrit dokumints xaxaxaxaxaxa))))
These Chieftain's hatch videos are awesome. Just keep them coming, there are plenty of AFV's in museums around the world that you can review after everything at Kubinka is done =)
I got the idea of the driver operated mg's to be used , when enemy is trying to run up to the tank and throw molotov cocktail or some magnetic shaped charge etc. on the tank.. the driver could fire all mg's at once, while turning the tanks on spot as fast as it can rotate 360's .. it would spit out on 4 mg's + if gunner decides to use his aswell. .. One could think that the opposing force would hit the dirt and try to hunker for cover instead of running on tank to plant their explosives etc.. At least i would stop on my tracks and think something else or try later again.
the barrel is lifted because if the tank were to go down a steep slope the gun wouldnt dig into the ground infront of it, not sure why lifted when stationary tho, probs to stop people from smacking their heads as u mentioned
***** Everything those person said is true, but there is also an another reason, well I think. It's like a infantry soldier pointing the gun on the ground, it tell that it won't fire, well it might fire but it's like a " safe ". In war tank always carry a shell inside the gun, just in case, so they lift the gun to make sure it if they do something wrong the shell will just fly in the air and land somewhere else... which in that case you don't mention it and hope nothing bad happenned the other side uhuh. So I supose even if there isn't any ammunition in it, they still keep the gun lifted just to say " hey it won't fire at you, it's in rest "
Real answer, the barrels were lifted so storage would be easier, lifting it up would allow the tanks in front to move closer together, thus allowing for more space for more tanks.
Three co axial mounted machine guns/cannons and the machine gun on top of the turret was controlled from within the tank, so there were other options for independent aiming of mg guns without the driver having to rock the tank back n forth. There was no western tank from the 40's 50's or 60's that could stop this machine but it was expensive and way too heavy to be transported on the then flatbed rail cars.
I love the game, but what I'm irritating of are the enemy tank, that when you try to reposition your tank when you are engaging the enemy at a fire fight, then another enemy destroyer suddenly appear in front of you and you were surprised for big hit and your knock out, it's unfairly matter, while your monitoring your mini map it was not there.
I'm shaking my head wondering what could be dumber than hull mounted external machineguns. Then Chieftain points out the rear-firing external machineguns.
oh god, you can't even change external machine gun elevation! GL with that if people climb on your tank. General Patton: "the principle weapon of the tank is the machine gun"
Cmon show us some German tanks which were in actually in service like the Panther, a Panzer 4, the Stug or something like that! Not the Maus or the Pz.Sfl V!
You do realize there is one Panther in the world and it's somewhere in the USA, right? You can make videos about dozens of vechiles in Kubinka, aranging everything and then travelling thousands of kilometres for a 10 min video about Panther is kind of expensive you know.
Might the fuel filler caps be located underneath the overhang from the turret rear? If only there was enough room to rotate the turret 90 degrees to one side and check.
omri arielly You would see additional MGs on almost anything the Israelis had for many decades. Even a .50 cal coax mounted externally on an M109 SPG. And the M5 half-track was a case of "Give everyone a .50 cal or a .30 cal"
TheChieftainWoT well when you put it that way... haha although i think this fashion is a bit over for example the merkava 4 and the Namer basically only have one .50 cal and one 7.62 machine gun
I can't believe no one has suggested those machine guns were used to discourage enemies from climbing the tank. Many Soviet tanks used to have a machine gun on the back of their turrets for this reason.
Or for suppressing fire on fortifications if minimal infantry support
It must had been funny if they tried to use all 4 external machine guns at the same time. The driver would be rocking the tank back and forth trying to spray rounds in as well as suddenly breaking and accelerating trying to get the elevation correct, while the gunner and commanders try to move the turret arguing about where the shots are going as they try to look though the periscopes while the tank is bouncing around, haha.

Why is the barrel lifted? Is it to stop people from walking into it? What about during a parade? For driver?
