  • Опубликовано: 19 окт 2024
  • Inspired by the story of the Western front, spring 45, when Germany was at last stand. British sent their new Centurion tanks to the frontline, but they arrived too late and never got used, what is supposed to do - match and destroy Tigers tanks. So today, we jump into a what-if scenario, where these two go head to head, on a new map, to find out if Centurion could be a worthy nemesis and annihilate might Tiger tank. This is 25 vs 25, tanks vs tanks.
    A group of Tigers manages to ambush Centurions, taking down several but soon the tides will turn, and the epic show will get started.

    The tigers are in hull down and ambush positions. The Centurions, with longer range and IR sites, are being forced by this scenario to sit in the open, bunched up and virtually at point blank range. Was this designed to be even semi accurate?

      The Tiger was seen as a spearhead heavy tank not a main battle tank.
      Armour is an offensive weapon a good one but in defence it’s useless. In attack it’s useless without its support. Just see what trained infantry can do to armour that doesn’t have its own back up.

      Statistically, CAS was very poor at actually destroying tanks in WW2. They had a low hit rate and an even lower chance to critically damage the vehicle. The majority of CAS' effect on tanks was the morale and psychological impact it had, while also preventing many units from moving during the day.

      @@AdamSmith-kq6ys It's different on a division level for maneuvering. It's not the same maneuvering as when a platoon of tanks zig zag or hop between groups of trees, it's moreso a long, exposed column of vehicles trundling down a road with little cover. For a unit as big as, in some cases, entire brigades, it's safer to remain dug in with anti-air defenses rather than tear up all of your fortifications and make yourself even more exposed by trying to relocate.

      Or how terribly coded it is as a simulation. The Centurion APDS round is nearly twice as fast as an 88mm round. Most of those hits to the Centurions looked frontal, based on the actual armour the front hull should always bounce an 88mm round and the turret would need the APCR round close range and a bit of favourable positioning.

    Centurions are highly mobile tanks, that should move fast and outflank (only from one side) the slow, big and clumsy formation of Tiger I, de-tracking and hitting the sides and the back of Tigers-I . Also firing from a longer distance, thanks to better optics and more modern accurate cannon shooting APSF (as it happened in the battle of the "Valley of Tears", between Israel and Syria).

Except for some Guard units like the Irish Guards and Lord Lovats Commandos Montgomery was playing a waiting game . Special mention must be given to the 6th Airborne Division for exceptional valor at Arnhem Bridge later on but the English stepped out of fighting till the end of the war. Political upheval in Parliment by socialists and horrendous losess of the 1st World War were still prevassive in Britian by 1944 . Even Churchill commented to his cronies that the United States would never get accountability of the Lend Lease program when it was almost assured that we would win the War with Germany. In effect saying they had been fighting since 1939 not the US.

      Centurion only received 105mm guns in the late 1950s/early 1960s. The first couple of marks had the 76mm 17-pdr gun which was replaced by the 84mm 20-pdr gun from about 1948 on the mark III. Even so it's a bit of an uneven match with 1942 Tigers vs post-war Centurions, the Tigers only won because the Centurions used crap tactics instead of trying to exploit their advantages.

    This was a AWESOME Battle. Its too Bad the Centurion's Lost. But Its alright. As The Centurion Tank was a More Simple an Easy an Reliable Design then the tiger tank. Also, If this was TRULY REAL, I seriously believe the Centurion's would've won. As the Centurion Tanks would have the Superior Artillery and Air support of The British and American Army's... As of course US and UK Air an Artillery support was devastating to the germans. And even if Some of the shots/attacks Missed, They were still deeply Unnerving to the germans. But yes. the Centurion is 1 Cool Tank. But I think I Like the Comet Tank jus a Bit more. Also, Getting tanks an Ammo and fuel for them to the front lines was REAL Hard for the germans at this point. With the Way our Air support/Close Air Support was Ripping up their Supply lines. But yep. AWESOME video.

    In reality the Centurions would have easily destroyed the Tigers. The Centurion was just a superior tank in virtually every way. Not to mention that in the video they are Centurion Mk.IIIs which had an even more powerful 20 pounder gun. Which were far more effective than any German WWII AT gun. The Centurion Mk. III would have massacred the Tiger way before the Tiger would even see it.

    • @jinglejangle3287
      @jinglejangle3287 3 года назад +1

      The Tiger I would still be a match for the Centurion early variant. Anyway, the Centurion can be easly destroyed by the Tiger II and other german tank destroyers of the late 1944 and 1945. Plus, the 20 pounder isn't the best anti-tank gun. The german 128 mm anti tank gun was the best of the war.

    • @Frserthegreenengine
      @Frserthegreenengine 3 года назад +3

      @@jinglejangle3287 No it wouldn't really, the Tiger I would have struggled against the frontal armour of a Centurion whereas the Centurion would little trouble with the Tiger I. The Tiger I's frontal armour was notoriously vulnerable to the 17 pounder or 90mm gun on the Pershing, the 85mm gun on the T-34, heck even the 76mm on the Sherman and Hellcat could knock out a Tiger's frontal armour. The Centurion outclassed the Tiger in almost every way.
      The Centurion could also knock out a Tiger II and German tank destroyers with relative ease even with a 20 pounder. if they were within 1000 yards (which was standard combat ranges back then)
      The 128 mm may have been the best German gun on paper, but it saw limited action. The Soviet 100mm and 122mm guns were just as if not better than the 128mm.

      @jinglejangle3287 3 года назад

      @@Frserthegreenengine the 76 mm could not pen the Tiger, or maybe yes but almost at point black. The 85 mm of the t-34/85 can do it but at relatively close distance, when the 88 can kill it from afar.
      The Centurion is superior to the Tiger I (not II), I'm not saying the opposite, but the Tiger I is perfectly able to destroy it if the centurion is 1 km or less away. The Early Centurion frontal armor is angled but it's even thinner than the Panther's one.
      About german late war tank destroyers: a Jagdpanther, for example, has the latest version of the 88 mm AT gun, which is way better than the one on the Tiger I (it's the same gun of the tiger II). So it can kill a Centurion befere the British tank even see it.
      About the 128 mm AT gun: it wasn't the best just on paper. Otto Carius (one of the many German tank aces) destroyed a Sherman (If I remember correctly) which was behind a house. The shell fucking penetrated the house and destroyed the Sherman.
      The Russian 100mm and 122mm were also inferior to the latest 88mm, because it was a freaking speed shell

    • @Frserthegreenengine
      @Frserthegreenengine 3 года назад +3

      @@jinglejangle3287 Nope. The 76mm could knock out a Tiger from the front at 700m, the T-34-85 could also do the same at similar ranges. 500-1000m was considered standard tank engagements at the time.
      As for the Centurion it certainly had more advantages than the Tiger did. As for being able to destroy a Centurion perfectly. No. Side armour yes it would but frontal? No. The Tiger I's 88 couldn't even penetrate the frontal armour of an M4 Sherman if the Sherman was angled at 30 degrees, although it could just hit the sides and that would do it. Head on it had no difficulty against the Sherman obviously.
      And the Centurion was not inferior to the Tiger II, early ones maybe, but certainly not the later ones. But even the early ones could still knock out a Tiger II from the sides easily at long distances. The Tiger II World certainly be inferoior to Centurions armed with the Royal Ordinance 105mm L7 gun, it is considered of the best tank guns in history and certainly far superior to any WWII German tank gun. It was so good that even the Americans used it on their early Abrham tanks.
      Also we really should not believe everything that a commander like Otto Carius says word for word, German tank commanders are known to exaggerate things or claim to achieve things without verification. They are the subject of Nazi Propaganda who like to exaggerate their claims, actions and kills further. So unless I am given evidence that this happened I do not believe for a second that he destroyed a Sherman behind a house with a Jadgtiger. If I am given evidence then I'll change my mind.

      @@Frserthegreenengine about the 76 mm gun, yes I was wrong it was able to penetrate a Tiger I frontally but only if it used "special" shells, like the High-Velocity Armour-Piercing M93, which were present in very small numbers. Anyway, tank engagement on the western or Italy front were indeed on about 500/1000 meters, but on the eastern front tank engagements from 1500/2000 meters or more were not rare.
      About the Centurion, a Tiger I could penetrate it frontally if close enough (obviously the Centurion can pen the Tiger from a greater distance). I consider this fact astonishing, in fact the Centurion was a brand new tank while the production of the Tiger I ceased in 1944. For the Tiger II, obviously it had no problem against the early version of the Centurion (which was the one supposed to fight in ww2) but it's a bit unfair comparing the Tiger II against cold war era Centurions with brand new guns, don't you think?
      About Otto Carius, you can find everything you want about him in the book "Tigers in the mud". It's his diary from the war, which also has official documents at the end of the book. His experience is realistic, he fought from the start of operation Barbarossa as a loader in the pz. 38/t then as a commander in the Tiger I and finally, after a period in hospital being wounded while in recon out of the tank, he served as commander of a Jagdtiger, impenetrable from the front. He destroyed 150 tanks and maybe (not verified) a plane. He was a good soldier, he loved his country but he was not a nazi. After the war he worked as pharmacist.

    Good, BUT HOLY FUCK IRL THIS IS EZ CENTURION WIN. The tigers seem to be immune from the sabot that has over twice as much penetration than the thickest part of armour on the tiger. Also, theoretically the tiger couldn’t penetrate the centurion anywhere unless they where using APCR, which of course is a sub-calibre round so it would struggle with the heavy sloping of the centurions armour. Also, according to my sources at least, the centurions mantlet is 152mm thick.
