Welcome to our new content. As the Weapon Detective, we investigate modern weapon systems of the Second Cold War. The Weapon Legends is about the older weapon systems. In our videos, we tell their epic stories, which made them a legend. The Weapon Legends investigates these stories, reads between the lines, analyse, and tells the untold. In our videos, you can find technical information, historical backgrounds, what happened during the development processes, combat experience and political projection. Let the wisdom of history show us what the future would be like. Let’s investigate the veteran weapons of the past together.

South African MLRS are *very* overlooked, thank you for making a video on them.
I was a Valkiri Bombardier. Thanks for this video
Everybody is fascinated by South African weapons. I read all the books and the birder war really needs a movie
All these armaments are the brainchild of PW. Nobody gives PW any credit - but they are all making money from his inventions. As Minister of Defence - no one to rival PW. Started with 2nd WW equipment - sanctions & ended up with world beaters.
Boeritje boys were very industrious and innovative
My dad used to operate on them
What I always miss in movies about combat vehicles is the most important thing. The driver. It's always about the guns, but the driver is always forgotten in the cutscenes. Without a driver, every tank is a sitting duck.
i love how southafrica made their own weapons to meet their needs since they have alot of embargos. and most of their weapon systems are the best in their class.
Great video
Interesting 🤔, Thanks
You're starting me make me homesick now, pre 1994, that is.
Thank you!!! ^^
There was a time when i was very proud about the SADF. Since it became the SANDF its declining is just plausible.
🤓
Proud of an army that shot unarmed civilians. Young kids. The nostalgia nauseating
So i assume you are in the SANDF?? If not then i suggest you stay quite
Another white saying Apartheid was better
@@thetad1242 ask which nations army never did that
LETS GO!!!
Muito legal 😎!
👍👍
Can you do a video on pinaka mlrs?
Great video as always. Any plans on making a video on HIMARS?
Thanks for your interest. Actually, we have, but sadly our viewers do not prefer the U.S. systems.
Another good video. But, even though I like the South African systems so much, let's accept that the real legend is the BM-21 Grad.
We developed our MLR's based on captured BM21's and ammunition.
The Rooi Oog (RedEye) was not very popular with SADF soldiers on the receiving end.
Seeing these in action was both awesome and awful.
Is it possible to make a video about the T5-52
That thing seems like a beast, easily within the top 5 but there’s not much information on it
Gaijin please
So In 1992 was r8000 rand a rocket well just imagine how much a "ripple" would cost today ha ha crazy man
Correct on the rockets not being produced anymore
Hi weapon detective can you Made conten about military equipment from PLA like type 99 MBT,ZBD 05, etc.
The Bateleur was not the predecessor of Valkyrie

🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
Actually the Valkyrie was the predecessor of the Bateleur
Based on Soviet BM-21 Grad
Why do people think that just because there are visual similarities that means western systems must always be copies of Soviet sytems?
1) West Germany had an identical system in use before the BM-21. The US used similar systems as far back as 1944.
2) Engineering problems often need the same solutions regardless of who is doing the designing, so identical parallel development is very common; that doesn't mean somebody had to have copied anybody else.
3) It is actually well documented proven fact that many Soviet/Russian and Chinese weapon systems are copies of western systems, since they have generally lagged behind the West in R&D, but not in espionage.

Because SADF captured the systems during Operation Savannah in Angola in 1976, copied them and improved them - even if it did not origin from where....who do you think invented the MLRS in WW2? (Soviet BM-13 Katyusha) Also you think we designed the G5???? Go read up about Dr Gerald Bull and his legacy.
Current SANDF wouldn’t know what to do with them!
The idiots operating it, could not hit a rugby field!
Operating it now.
Battle of Bangui?
ruined when handed over to the corrupt incompetent anc
I would have like to go to South Africa when Whites ruled.
The voice is very annoying.
