Tank battle of Dubno-Brody. 1941 [The largest tank battle in history]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- A documentary about the largest tank battle in history in Lutsk-Dubno-Brody triangle.
The tank battle took place on June 23-30, 1941 between Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union.
The total number of tanks involved on both sides was about 4528.
In the Soviet time, this information was hidden, so the event still remains a mystery to most Ukrainians. But in Western countries it has been talked about for a long time.

Really enjoyed this! As an American, the vast majority of historical videos I watch on RUclips are English speaking, so it was nice to hear from someone from that region talking about WW2 battles. And learning new info. You got yourself a new subscriber.
My dad was born in brody in 1923! I really enjoyed your video and found it very interesting. Many thanks.
Thanks a lot!
Excellent presentation filled with rarely disclosed information that sheds light on how the Germans were able to defeat the numerically superior Soviet Armies in the initial phase of Operation Barbarossa. Excellent work!
Thank you so much for a nice feedback!
Unsupplied and disorganized troops are an easy target
Thank you !
Well Done! Quite informative, clear, and precise, you video of this battle is one of the best of the many Eastern Front videos I have watched.
Thanks so much! Glad you like it.
Until today. i had no idea this battle existed. Just wow. Great video. Well informed. Well presented.
Tanks for posting
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for an excellent video on a little known battle.
Thanks a lot!
GREAT PODCAST! I really enjoyed your podcast. I am a retired United States Marine. I was posted to a Tank Battalion in 1968. We had two types of tanks in my Battalion. We had M-48A(Patton Tank) and M-60 (HeavyTank).
I would like to see a podcast about those two tanks.
Wow, thanks a lot for your comment!
5 yrs on a 60 during the '80's. Best job I ever had.
how do you feel about the decision to get rid of all Marine armor? no more tanks for the USMC.
@@xisotopex What? What NIMCOMPOOP came up with that idea?
@xisotopex If true, the U.S. military is well on it's way to going to Hell in a Colostomy bag.
Thanks very much! I'm an old dog these days and I learnt something today because of you!
I just drove thru Dubno yesterday - back from Lviv to Lutsk
Great! So you saw soviet IS2 tank at the enter of Dubno.
@@ukrainevolynhistory6692 I did .
I am a Canadian from Vancouver, my Mother in Law was born in Zalyujia - I had no idea that the tank battle was fought here - I thought it was Kursk.
I have only driven by the Lutsk Military Museum - I am looking forward to vistiting it -
It has been a real mindblowing place ..... I have studied WW2 history since the crib and to see it here - preserved and real is the opposite of Canada.
I am fascinated and glad I came across your video - I know there is so much history here .. and want to know more.
I live in Lutsk - currently
@@nikosjasonfakaro9187 Thank you for great story!
amazing the german almost captured the capital. with just this number. tactics played its role
Now learn why they by "almost taken the capital" received also their first great defeat there, and sorry in October November 1941 there wasn't Lend Lease convoys reached Russian motherland yet...
Learn also how German terrible ended war in 3.5 years later...
The reason it wasn't only Germany started war against Soviet Union, it was also Italy and Finland, Romania and Hungary, Slovakia and Vichy France, Spain and Denmark, Sweden and Switzerland, Holland and Norway, Belgium and Bulgaria...
It was industries and even manpower of Occupied Europe, versus Soviet Union, weakened by NKVD terror against own Army Officers... Soviet lost 13,000 officers permanently (they were executed) on the Eve if German attack on Soviet land, in 22nd June, 1941, over 30,000 were imprisoned, some where released just month or two before that... The Army was beheaded by own, before the battle are even began!!!
Red Army also had a tactic "fighting wars on foreign territories" they were not learned about fighting defensive battles, it was wrong tactic, especially Red Army was ill equipped, especially with army lorries, trucks, battle evacuation and repair equipment and crews. Many Russian tanks were left even after loosing some tracking, wheels, or run out of ammunition or fuel... It wasn't simple enough evacuation trucks to evacuate these slightly disabled tanks... Also commanders were often former sergeants, often had 3-4 classes of high school education, and shortage of officers forced them to take command of regiments and divisions... General Jukov have 3 classes of education and no military education at all... Soviets didn't have yet equipment built for offensive battles, especially when their lost air supremacy to Germans...
Low skills, poor training, poor equipped with supplies and fuel, lack of intelligence, often brought Russian tank crews exhausted before battles...
Now in middle of battle most tanks run out of fuel or shells, no nearby armament bases or even supply trucks... They became a target themself, without fuel and ability to fire against enemy tanks and heavy mobilized artillery, who had a perfect fleet of supply vehicles, 2 millions versus 300,000 Red Army have... in other word German and their satellites have 1 vehicle per two soldiers average, while red army had only one vehicle per 10...
@@JackArkitekt Most of the countries you mentioned allegedly starting a war against the Soviet Union were occupied countries which only sent some anticommunist volunteer units. The Soviet Union on the other hand did not consist only of Russia, but also of Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kazhakstan, Turkmenistan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, let alone got they help from their Western allies, while Japan as a German ally stayed neutral. In the summer of 1941 the Red Army had 30.000 heavy tanks, tens of thousands of artillery pieces and planes and five million troops massed along the Finnish, German and Romanian border. In no way the Soviets were unterprepared to what was coming. They hadn't prepared for defence there and the Germans drew a little quicker, that was the problem.
@@maximkretsch7134 you are correct actually. The Soviet militaries worst enemy was Joseph Stalin. It is taught at war college that if 3rd Reich had consolidated upon USSR things would turned out different. Maybe Soviets would still survive onslaught but casualty rate would have exploded... But that's all conjecturing.
At the time of Barbarossa, the Soviets had only 100 T-34's. The KV's were armored monsters, but suffered from frequent mechanical breakdowns, having a weak transmission. The Germans tanks, while inferior in armament and armor, had radios and the crews were better trained, allowing them to coordinate their attacks. The Germans usually preferred to engage tanks with their AT guns, saving their armor to counterattack and for encirclement to cut off the enemy's supply and communications. The Soviet BT and other light tanks were death traps, with thin armor, with the commander dividing his attention helping shoot the main gun and lead the tank.
Yes, you're right
one slight correction, my friend. the Soviets had over 100 t-34s in the 12th tank division alone, which was a part of Ryabechevs powerful 8th mechanized corps of 899 tanks. the 12th, which was chiefly made up of t-34s, was one of 3 divisions within the 8th mech, which also included the 34th tank division, (made up chiefly of t-35 heavy tanks), & a motorized division, (of which I forget the number of). of the 24000 tanks of the red army at the time of 'barbarossa', if I remember correctly 1200 were t-34s & over 500 were kv. other than that, I agree that you made some very good points.
@@stanbrekston I stand corrected :)
When the Germans encountered those T-34's and KV's they were shocked at how good they were, and impervious to most of their AT guns.The even considered copying them. If Hitler had invaded a year later, things would have gone much harder with more of those tanks. Even so, Barbarossa was not the complete walkover despite the Soviet losses. The Germans got the message by the tough resistance by the Russians that it wasn't going to get any better if the Soviets managed to recover, which happened. The Nazi's should have learned from Napoleon's defeat!
@@blank557 my friend, I agree with all of that. & might I recommend to you, (& everyone else), probably the best weekly World War Two series on RUclips, entitled, 'World War Two in Real Time', with Indie Nidel as the narrator. an excellent, excellent, series.
Немцы были волки настоящие и закопать их было один к шести наших!..
Thank you for such a clear and well-presented lesson. My great-grandpa fought here and was (in his own words) "lucky to have made it through".
Wow, good story. Thanks
Excellent presentation. I learned some new facts about the battle, as well as seeing some new photography. Good job!
Yes, indeed, it was the largest tank battle of WWII. Finally, after the collapse of the Red Empire, everyone can get more information about their intentions and hidden defeats that amount to disaster. Practically, after this battle, Wehrmacht troops had every opportunity for full and unhindered advance. Dzhugashvili-Stalin's top-secret "Thunderstorm" plan, which called for him to conquer all of Europe, did not help. This battle showed ignorance of the terrain and tactics of battle, and unwillingness to defend the captured lands - all the soldiers of the Red Army fled together to the old Stalinist border of 1939 model. Very interesting video. Thanks to the authors.
Thanks so much for the detailed comment
Kursk was the largest tank battle in history!
@@dr.med.detlefkohler6488 No, Dubno was. "Kursk" was an operation, Citadel, which included the Battle of Prokhorovka, which was the second-largest tank battle,which also was won by the Germans. Dubno was a battle within Operation Barbarossa.
Nice video but the germans also had large numbers of the Czech build 38 T and 35 T as well in their panzer divisions for the invasion of Russian.
As well as inferior comand control, training and tactis the Russians also suffered from fuel shortages in this battle with many fully functional T34s and KV 1s being captured and then being pressed into German service.
Interesting. Do you have some more info about Czech build 38 T and 35 T?
@@ukrainevolynhistory6692 For the Russian campaign they helped equip the the panzer divisions in the south and the 38T was also a big part of Rommels 7th panzer division (ghost division) for the 1940 Battle for France. The crews liked the tanks mobility and main gun but were not keen on the rivets yhat were used to bolt the hull and turret plates together. They tended to shatter and become shrapnel inside the tank when hit hard. Later in yhe war the 38T was the hull that the Hetzer tank destroyer and Marder III were built on. Both had the much larger 75 mm anti tank guns instead of yhe 37 mm of the 38T
Been looking for your channel. Wow, great stuff
Thank you!
An interesting looking historian, with good tattoos:). Cool documentary. I like how in the end, it became a John Keegan "The Face of Battle" where the same battlefield was examined with other historical conflicts, in the area.
He is also a homosexual. A real modern Ukrainian European.
@@MarMar-nq9ii well there plenty of genocide done against Ukraine's Jews in World War Two. They were done out of hate and racism. You are showing hate and homophobia. Hate leads to violence, genocide, and wars. Stay away from hate.
Thanks for explaining a part of WWII that is not often spoken about. I've always been puzzled over how Germany could take on the KVs and the T-34s with their panzer 3-4. It's clearer to me now.
Thank you
Basically because the first models russia did was shit, whereas the german was good. On kursk some german tanks shot ten to one
Very informative about a little known tank battle before Kursk.
Thanks a lot. We're happy you like it.
Thank you for the history lesson. Much appreciated.
Thank you!
This is one of the best explanations of why the Russians lost so many troops/ tanks! I have always wondered why??
I can't imagine how one could be that disorganized! Thanks.
It is not "Russians" who lost so many tanks and troops. It was the USSR and that included people from all Soviet Republics, including Russia, Ukraine, Byelorussia and Kazakhstan. The Russian army was not efficient for several reasons, including the elimination of several top generals under Stalin's suspicion they were spying for Germany. Also despite intelligence reports to the contrary, it was Stalin's refusal to believe that Hitler will ever attack the Soviet Union; therefore refusing to place the Red Army under war preparation. Just keep in mind, there was not any declaration of war, when Germany attacked.
Finally, something other than Kursk, Stalingrad, Leningrad, etc. This has helped me understand what went on in the beginning. Also, I'm again hearing about the USSR's plan to invade the West...
Thank you for feedback. History is repeating in some way as we see today.
Very smooth.
For those that are wondering or confused why the Battle of Brody-Dubno was more epic. Dubno-Brody area was fought over 1 week period of 6 days really. (Germans roughly 700 tanks, Russians 3500 Tanks) Kursk was fought over 1.5 Months! Germans had roughly 3200 Tanks, Soviets had about 7300 Tanks. Big difference because in the battle of Dubno they were all in action for the entire week. Kursk they were more or less piecemealed in, with reserves.
Thank you for such a good explanation.
Conversely, at Dubno the tanks were mostly much smaller.
Cant really compare BTs, T-26, Panzer IIs and 38ts with what made up the majority in 1943 or later.
@@lyndoncmp5751 True, it's interesting that Army Group's South Panzer Korps only used German-manufactured tanks. No Chezcklosovakian ones were used. Also, the largest concentration of T-34 and BT-7, KV series were used during this battle.
Thank you for doing the research and posting this - greetings from Denmark - it appears Volyn and Denmark share the same colors :)
Thanks! Yeap, the colors are similar. One of the first Volyn coat of arms were used in around 14th century.
@@ukrainevolynhistory6692 The flag is said to fall from the sky in a battle in Estonia around the 13th century. The danes were loosing but they got encouraged won the battle and adopted the flag
Great presentation and excellent information, thank you for all the hard work required to make this wonderful video
Thank you so much!
Great video, I really liked the intro
Fascinating video. Thanks for putting this little gem on RUclips! It is too bad that this battle isn't better know. As for combined arms, the Soviets weren't the only ones with visions of tank heavy formations dancing in their heads. I think ALL of the allies had that thinking and missed the combined arms concept until after the Germans gave us all a good beating with their PAK fronts and 88s and FINALLY hammered combined arms concept into everyone's heads.
This was an excellent documentary. Well done.
Thank you!
Really knowledgeable on the subject! Great understanding of the tactical, strategic and technical situation. Not enough about this theater and time period on the web. Really enjoyed this!
Excellent, thank you!
Thank you!
Love this documentary so much great information greetings from USA army veteran
Little is known of this forgotten battle. Thanks a lot for the enlightement!!
Thank you!
Enjoyed this. Prior to this I had occasionally run across this drawn out battle but perhaps a paragraph dwelling on the first encounters with T-34 and KV-1.
thankyou so much, some epic footage, and a well researched presentation.
Excellent, glad this hit my feed
Great video thank you 👌
Thanks
Great!
Excellent presentation
Thanks!
Truly a great history lesson on what occurred, the only we learn from our mistakes, in peace and war is the truth, some day we will learn to war no more.
I guess the Russian guy never heard of the Tiger? Otto Carius? Guess not. TIK covers Dubno-Brody in detail but this was a decent presentation.
Thanks. He is Ukrainian guy. Tigers were much later than this battle.
@@ukrainevolynhistory6692 You are correct my friend about the Tigers. I'd forgotten. I also correct myself in calling this a "decent presentation." It was very well done & a lot of hard work & research went into it. Thank you very much!
@@billcallahan9303 Thank you for such a great feedback!
Ahaha, this battle took place almost 1,5 years before first Tigers appeared.
Wow and thankyou, never heard of this battle before.
Well no wonder as it is all about US and British successes when it comes to WWII
Excellent! Thank You.
Really enjoyed this video, lots of information & very well put together. 👍
New sub here. Cheers
Very interesting indeed, thank you. Liked and subscribed.
Thank you!
Many Thanks for telling the truth.. this is what my father told me, because they found maps of german and polish cities by a attack preparing soviet tank armada....
Germans had plans to invade Spain. Every country is prepared for the worst. Honestly, I think its a post-war conspiracy theory, that Stalin plan to invade in Germany, without being attacked by Germany
@@michaelschmid9567 wrong. Stalinist communism was needed to destroy traditional Christian thinking and culture particularly in the rural areas of Eastern and Middle Europe. Quickly and not in 200 years like in the West. Then capitalism and democracy can come with cheap privatization of all the wealth of those countries. With other words Stalin was just a puppet exactly like Hitler. They did not have to make strategic plans, the strategy was decided by Wall Street. Just like today.
@@lilalali6753 I dont understand, whats your point. For sure, Stalin was nobodies puppet, as Hitler was nobodies puppet. Maybe in your dream or conspiracy theory, but not in reality.
@@michaelschmid9567 let it be according your belief. For a worm the world is 2 dimensional.
I don’t say this lightly but, kindly go back to your basement, theorist
I realy Liked a lot your maps ! Great work ! Thanks
High level of detail! Excellent history/historian.
Excellent documentary!! It demonstrates the results of Stalin purges of 1937-38 and communist policies. The heroic Soviets people paid with blood and gore to defend the motherland while their leaders sit in a bunker.
Totally Agree about the Soviet leaders sitting in their bunker.The same happened 4 years later,but this time it was the Nazis who hid in their bunker.Same with the First World War,With the very top leadership of the British and French armies,well away from the front away from the fighting,as their soldiers got blown to pieces!.
Excellent documentary. Thank you.
I think there are substantial doubts about this battle to be the biggest tank battle. It had just the size of the southern part of the Kursk battle or even less...
ruclips.net/video/nA2286viUyw/видео.html
Given how many times the word Ukraine is used in first three minutes this is obviously a Ukrainian channel. And Kursk is in Russia, so...yeah... there is all you need to know.
@@uegvdczuVF you got this point related to Ukraine but you are wrong: this guy talks about the "largest tank battle in world history" and so says the heading in the intro.
But never-ending, these battle were all huge for today's standard...
@@uegvdczuVF Bingo. Ukraine fell to neo-nazis,m now it's cancer.
Col. David Glantz, the preeminent authority of the war on Eastern front, confirms it was the largest tank battle of the war. However, it didn't have the most famous tanks of war fighting in it, so it lacks some of the cache of the Kursk battle.
Great material of history, thank you for sharing
Thank you!
What a great video, I love it. The best thing about it was it narrated in English. 👍
Thank you a lot! There was a lot of work.
There are no stats on muzzle velocity of the canons which was an issue in comparing American tanks to German guns.
Find a copy of The Tanks of Operation Barbarossa. It will give you muzzle velocities as well as a lot of other interesting data, including some very interesting graphics of tank v tank penetration ranges!
Excellent
One WORD. RADIO'S...
great work mate,i hope we will see more of it
Beretscheko is also where the Russians attack Austrians Saxons and Polishs of the south front in 1812, despite of the second austrian army in Brody
Thank you for a great technical review .
Thank you for watching!
Loved this video, thank you for teaching us something
The soviets have 25664 tanks and the german 4443 without captured tanks
Super thanks
Thank you too
Excellent. Great Job!
Thank you! Happy you like it

I am happy to be a subscriber now. I am a very knowledgeable historian on the titanic struggle between the Wermacht and the Red Army 1941 to 1945. I must tell you, unfortunately very few Americans realize that Russia is where Germany lost WW2. The US certainly helped, but the Russians paid an enormous price in blood and treasure. I hope you will do more battle “studies” of the eastern front. By doing much of your story while standing on the very battlefields, that is what I love most about your storytelling. I would have loved to visit these sites in person. Thank you for bringing the sites to me. How about a program on the Cherkassy/Korson Pocket (1944)? Again, many thanks. Paul Nienhaus
@@paulnienhaus5359 Thank you a lot for a nice feedback!
@@paulnienhaus5359 I'm guessing here, but it seems to me that Волинь Volyn' is a Ukrainian and doesn't really think too much of either the Soviets or the Germans. While you are an arrogant American who doesn't even know that US lend-lease, prevented the Red Army from a total collapse in 1942. Who knows if Ukraine would've fared better under German rule or Soviet?
What we do know is that you propped up one murderous dictator over another. One who had starved up to ten million Ukrainians to submit the rest, long before the war even started.
Real History told by a Ukrainian without the Soviet Propaganda 👍
Looks like I found my first scenario for the Barbarossa campaign I'm doing. I hadnt realised this was so early tho.
Good job, brother!
Thank you!
Good stuff !
There is a surprisingly good English language book on this titled The Bloody Triangle by Victor Kamenir. It gives a practically day by day unit by unit account of what the armor went through. If you don’t read Russian (I don’t) I would recommend the book
Not the best tanks, but most tanks. At kursk some german tanks shot ten to one of t-34:s and basically obliterated the russians wich by huge numbers managed to stall the advancement. The t-34 initially was a total deathreap, only radios sporadically and a survival rate wich was horrific bad. However, it was war, there were no other solution.
But nobody said that US request wheat as trade for borrow money to Soviet Union in 30th. That's mean they're part of problem in 30th Ukrainian- Russian starvation crisis
great video,very interesting
Very very good.
My grandfather fell there at age 24, he was an officer in the red army.
I always thought Kursk was the largest tank battle in history. Could I be wrong comrade? hmm..hmm...
I think not!
The number of tanks as recounted in memoirs and Soviet propaganda gave the battle of Prokhorovka in the southern part of the Kursk salient that reputation. Later research, especially after the fall of the Soviet Union, has shown that the actual number of tanks in that battle was a lot less.
Sry Paul. But you are wrong.
The Difference... if you would like to know. Is that the Battle of Dubno was fought in 1 WEEK. The Battle of Kursk was fought over 1.5 MONTHS.
Great history research!
Thanks!
Сейчас много можно говорить и хорошего и плохого по поводу сражение под Дубно . Особенно радуются поражению красной армии Украинцы , забыв что большинство киевского военного округа составляли призывники с Украины их деды и прадеды которые бились насмерть с фашизмом ( и которых их потомки предали сделав Бандеру , фашистского прихвостня героем) . А по поводу разгромленных танковых частей красной армии , можно сказать что танками пожертвовали , но блицкриг на Украине реально затормозился , и потерял темп. А эта потеря наступательного темпа у немцев в 1941 году , потом дала нам будущие победы, и помогла сломать хребет немецкому фашистскому рейху. Вечная память советским танкистам погибшим за родину под Дубно !!!
та ти що? це зараз в путєнських підручниках історії таке вчать? А нічого ще через 3 місяці німці оточать весь Південно-Західний фронт та візьмуть у полон 650-685 000 полонених? А ще згадаємо "Уманський котел" де взяли 6 та 12 армії разом з їх командувачами? Потапов та Кірпонос загинуть, купа командувачів армій та дивізій застреляться. Що там та хто допоміг зламати? Совєти просто не вміли воювати в 1941 тому що Сталін знищив найкращих командирів.
@@sergeontheloose Блиц криг он на то и блицкриг , что не терпит задержек. Задержки для немцев означали поражение.Из-за сражения у Дубно к концу июля немцы не знали что делать вроде и Умань надо завершить и времени на это нет , обсуждается всерьёз решения вместо продолжения операции по окружению у Умани повернуть уже в Июле танки через Днепр на Харьков. В конце июля расчитывали в октябре быть у Казани и Сталинграда а были всё ещё у Вязьмы и Харькова. Скажите трупами закидали , оно то так да только проиграть нельзя было . Хорошо бы конечно победить и организовать уже в 1941 г советскую Германию и советскую Францию .
Thank you! Cannot get enough of the Soviet side of history in WW2.
Thanks
That was not a Soviet side, it was a Ukrainian side.
@@BigSmartArmed of course this is stupid propaganda of fascist Ukraine and many believe it this nonsense. 1941 at the beginning of 2 world 2 who traying say it was the biggest battle of tanks. Soviet were defeated at the start almost 3 milion were captured as prisoners, they were defeated by luftwaffe destroyed majority Soviet tanks on the ground also destroyed massive artillery. Soviet forces were totally unprepared in 41 also Soviet didn't have T 34 ! Soviet union started manufacturing in 42 .The biggest tanks battle is 1943 Kursk no doubt about that. The only idiotic russofobic could believe it this fat Ukraine fascist narrator.
@@jozefsadlon8101 The winner always rewrites or deletes parts of history.
@@jozefsadlon8101 What are you blabbing on about? This history channel is correct - this WAS the biggest tank battle by sheer number of tanks - 5 Soviet mechanised corps against 4 German tank divisions. And T-34s started to be produced as early as 1940 - there was some amount of them in the mechanised corps that engaged the Germans - you should study Poppel and Rokossovsky memoirs before going on a stupid ignorant rant like yours.
The largest tank battle in history? What nonsense, bullshit! In the tank battle around Dubno-Brody 2800 Soviet tanks and 730 German tanks (including 250 tanks I and II and command tanks with minimal armament) were engaged. Almost 5000 Soviet and 2500 German tanks took part in the tank battle of Kursk. So more than twice as many. So the headline is wrong. Pure clickbait.
No, it is correct, this was the largest tank battle. The number of tanks as recounted in memoirs and Soviet propaganda gave the battle of Prokhorovka in the southern part of the Kursk salient the reputation of being larger. Later research, especially after the fall of the Soviet Union, has shown that the actual number of tanks in that battle was a lot less.
And so many Soviet Tanks just stuck without fuel..not counted as losses!
I was disappointed, when listing the tanks involved, you neglected to mention the number of Czechoslovakian tanks involved (on the German side). Other than that omission well done.
We don’t have information about participating of such tanks in this exact battle near Lutsk-Dubno-Brody. Maybe they were at other parts of the Eastern front at that time.
@@ukrainevolynhistory6692 You are probably right. I only know they were used all over the eastern front. They might not have been used in this battle. Thanks for helping me learn something today

@@alinsandulescu2323 Very thorough, thank you.
@@PaulMcCartGuitarTracks just a mistake it was 1412 panzer 3 and 4
Great information thanks very good video.
Thanks!
@@ukrainevolynhistory6692 My grandfather and family left Germany while the Nazis came to power. The US welcomed them with open arms and we've been here ever since. Thank God for the Soviet armies to defeat these bastards.
Awesome video! Refreshingly different. Only complaint is it was over to fast!
Thanks!
And don’t forget Stalin had just purged 3/4 of his officers ..... there was nobody to command Stalin’s armies !
😂 Please...
The Germans and Allies remind me of the American Civil War. The northern army had better weapons and more men. The south had better generals. It wasn't until the north found the leadership to use the great resources to over whelm the south. Once the Soviets finally put competent leadership in charge did you see the Germans pushed back to Berlin. As far as equipment early in the war the Soviets tanks lacked radios which hurt in coordinated attacks.
Oh, I disagree my friend. there were a few 'gems' that Stalin had the good sense to let live, like Rokkosovski, & Koniev. Rokkosovski was in prison being tortured at the time of barbarossa before Stalin ordered his release & put him in command. & Stalin was on the verge of having Konev shot, were it not for zhukov stepping in & recommending that his life be spared, & have him placed under zhukovs command. both Konev & 'the rock', became Soviet Marshalls.
3. ppl crew??!! I know of no women in German tanks.
Nicely done. Just a shame that the translation was so poor especially towards the end.
How could anyone give this a thumbs down?
me. Because its historical inacurate, full of conspiracy theories (the old story of "Sowjets plan to invade in Germany"), and portray a the point of view of "poor Ukrains was occupied by bad Russians". For a much better documentary of this topic, see ruclips.net/video/5fLSUibuTt4/видео.html (but its in German language).
Great looking video! Very informative.
Thanks!
Loool rhe Gering regiment (Göring....a Luftwaffe Division) was not an ELITE Division. That was the impression that Göring wanted to give...but...no
This is gold, very well done. Subscribe!
Thank you!
Cool..enjoyed much...great hve english translation....
Thank you!
It was the largest tank battle “up to that time”. Kursk had more than 6,000 tanks
And wasn't that superceded by a battle in the Arab- Israeli war?
@@sprinter1832 not even close
Yes but a lot of the ‘tanks’ at Dubno were barely worthy of that name - including pathetic Panzer I’s armed only with machine guns.
No commo, no win.
Konstantin Rokossovsky learnt a lot from this battle
Interesting and well organized presentation. Thank you for your work!
Thank you so much!
AG South... on the opening of Barbarossa had no Stukas support, besides of that... good job!!!!!
Thank you!
excellent
Outstanding!
I like it how he says former allies, you know that he is biased from start and presents only side from their current nato allies.
Because everyone with basic knowledge and right mind knows what germany and soviet union alliance meant.
In post soviet countries people rarely know about that USSR and nazi Germany were allies. For them it’s unbelievable fake even now.
@@ukrainevolynhistory6692 That's because a non aggression pact isn't an alliance. Britain and France also signed non aggression pacts with Nazi Germany, the USSR was the last country to do so.
@@55TheOracle55 False. The Soviets helped the German military even in the 1920s (before Hitler) in exchange for technology and training, far away from Allies' eyes. Both countries despised the re-creation of Poland from their old pre-1914 empires. Both Nazis and Communists hate democracies above all.
@@55TheOracle55 dude ... the sowjets delivered a huge amount of ressources even a few days before Barbarossa to nazi germany. they knew they did not like each other but it was more a pact then an agreement. after dividing poland it was obvious ....
The soviets helped the germans with war materiel. Even in the BOB when Germany was running out of bombs to bomb London, Stalin provided Hitler with the bombs and necessary raw materials to build more. That sounds like an alliance and not a non-aggression pact. Do you know that the last train ferrying grain, oil and other war stuff to Germany crossed the German-Soviet border right before the signal to attack Soviet Union in operation Barbarossa?
Very interesting ! Thank for posting.
Great job ! A lot of researchs, well done.
Just a problem of discriminating between good sources and propaganda from western sources. Somes sources are still pollued with ideology. But great research, and the soviet armoured units had the same problems than the french and brits ones : sometimes better tanks, but poor tactics, commanding and training! No radio, poor armoured, poor armement, lack of reliability... so only local victories, without explotations of it !
