Holy Shit, the level of destruction in the last few minutes is mindblowing, especially in the otherwise serene environement of my home. Maybe it even does a bit of a too good of a job conveying the horrors of war for a propoganda piece. It reminded me too much of "Come and see", especially the aerial bombardement and seeing the trees fall during the tank interception. It perfectly pictures the meaning of industrial warfare, destruction on such a large scale that it becomes absurd, that any life ceases to have any meaning, that a mind simply can not face.
He is moving his Arm to achieve maximum distribution of fire. That's how you are supposed to do it according to the textbook. Probably area denial fire, or diversion for a flanking unit. Looks silly af
Superb cinematography. I can see why this was nominated for an Oscar

What an amazing piece of history! The footage is absolutely incredible, especially the flying sequences. Thanks for uploading!
11:27 feels like a moment out of Star Wars
I'm watching this while wearing Swiss M70 surplus gear, I feel like a kid with one of those propeller hats enjoying an oversized lollipop.
Love those old school jets at 18:23!
There is still one in private ownership flying around in a Tiger paint
We call it "Venoms"
Fantastic movie!

Think it has to do with Swiss defense plan that every citizen knows, we trow everthing at them and destroy everthing that they get nothing
Wow vive la Confédération Helvétique !
14:05 the fuck was he doing
suppressive fire, the arm is hopping around because of the recoil
you can also set spread fire
