Can't argue with that. Though the Panther's armour was sloped and therefore more efficient. Over-engineered of course, like much earlier Nazi equipment but the Germans were not anticipating a war of attrition in which winning would depend on how quickly destroyed tanks could be replaced and production increased.

some words of a german tiger commander i read lately, perfectly described what happened in ww2. "One tiger can take out 4 shermans. unfortunately, they always come with 5".
There were only 3 encounters between Sherman and Tiger tanks in the western front, and in 1 of the cases the Tigers weren't being operated. That said the Soviets also used Shermans on the Eastern front.
That is a stolen line from an Australian soldier in Singapore. He said One Australian soldier was worth 4 Japanese. The trouble was there was always 5 of them.
Well from my viewpoint I say Tiger 1 is a grandson of Leopard 2. That vertical armor shape brings the Leopard 2 taste like a Tiger from a certain angle, especially from a diagonal rear view.
No joke, bro...just imagine the Russian tankers' fear when they faced this beautiful monster, which was capable of blowing you off with a single shot from more than a mile away and that was so heavily armoured that most of the T-34s shots at it just BOUNCED OFF ! It was an extremely well designed, well balanced war toy....If the Germans couldn't avoid defeat with these beasts was due to the fact that the Tiger was expensive to produce, and not made in the large quantities the Wehrmacht's involvement in so many fronts required, so they Tigers usually fought outnumbered 10 to 1...had it been 3 or 4 against one, the outcome of the war could have been different.
UnicornsAreReal : You know the beastly trick the Tiger crews would enact against foxhole Allied troops ? Once espied they'd back the tank up so tracks formed entrapment to either foxhole side, cap the exhausts - and rev the engines s s s s. Not nice, but a magic looking tank, tho prefer the Panther.

The only Original German tiger tank that is in running conditions still to date! Salute to the people of Bovington Tank Museum for keeping this beast intact!
Morale would've dropped in the Battle when you hear the Tiger 1 approaching and what makes it worse that the Germans wanted bigger tanks like the Maus and P.1000 Ratte which make the Tiger 1 very small and weaker
To complete the list, the tank mark 2 king Tiger 233, with Henschel turret, which is located in France at the National tank museum of Saumur and which still works with the original engine in the world.
@DSW22 Ok you are naming designs from German engineers, but my point still stands that none of what you listed, the assault rifle, the rocket, etc, were invented by Germans. These specific weapons were designed by Germans, but none were invented by them. The jet engine was a British invention, the STG 44 was more assault weapon-like compared to modern day assault rifles, but weapons like the BAR came before it, and that was designed by Browning. The guided missile was an Irish invention, the general purpose machine gun was made by Maxim, who was British-American. I can go on and on if you want me to.
Ich finds klasse das ihr englischen Kumpels unsere große Raubkatze da drüben am Leben haltet und ihn auch immer wieder ausführt 😉 Auch wenn ich es lieber sehen würde wenn solche geschichtsträchtigen Stücke Technik irgendwann einmal wieder den Weg zurück in die Heimat und hier in ein würdiges Museum finden würden.

I absolutely LOVE German engineering as I think it's some of the best in the world along side Japan. I know us Brits have made some amazing things over the years and still do. I also love German hand tools and vehicles as they are the BEST in the world.
The tiger was captured in Egypt just after it was shooting and killing commonwealth troops why should you get it back. If you want to keep your military weapons don't loose them in other countries while you are invading them
In my opinion 1. If only hitler did not kill the jew but instead use them then once the war is over they won't look like the baddies until they exterminate them after the war 2. If only they did not declare the war on everyone and just focus on UK after france defeat they have a chance (better dead than being a na#i dog well they did not win so it good!)
Notice how all British tanks had to turn on their axis and brake, while the German tanks flawlessly moved and turned seamlessly. That gentlemen is only the tip of the iceberg of what German engineering was. Damn! Still makes you wonder how the blokes won it against such odds.
I think you will find that the Char B1 was the first tank to use such a double differential transmission, and the triple differential Merrit-Brown system used on the Churchill, Cromwell and Centurion is vastly superior to the German systems used on the Tiger I, Tiger II, Panther etc. German engineering was not magically better than British or French engineering.
First tank produced that actually incorporated tankers' advice for what they needed. I can't even imagine battle hardened bad ass'$ pushing the Tiger and it's capabilities. Beast.
leopard have focused on the speed and strip off most the armor that earlier ww2 tanks have which allows it to go very fast due to the light weight and the powerful engine
波斯貓?BSM The chuckle I get imagining a soldier seeing a little pack of those cresting over a hill with guns firing, going at an uncomfortably fast spied. That’s a significant emotional event.

Very early tigers had reliability issues due to the aluminum engine block. But once they switched to the HL230 engine, reliability was fine. However, they were high maintenance. And Germany suffered from very poor fuel, which caused the engines to run poorly depending on the fuel quality. The T-34 was simple, cheap to build, and did not require a high level of maintenance. But it was not an overly reliable tank. The Soviets were actually happy when they captured Panzer IV and Stug tanks because these were extremely reliable. But when capturing Panthers or Tigers, they would drive them till they broke, then leave them. And this was typically because they did not properly maintain them, as they had no reason to.
That is a myth.. there are plenty of books that say otherwise. They leaked, the crew compartments were cramp and the crews were usually fatigued, other systems could fail.... They could actually leave the tank, and depending on where they were could jump in a new one. The armor also had plenty of weld deficiencies.
As a little kid in New Zealand in the 1960's there was a Valentine Tank in the local Limestone quarry which was a great place for us to play war games on . 😁 i think the Quarry owners had a pair of them.
After reading all the comments below, I wonder...why 90% of them refer only to the Tiger 131 ? I thought this was a British show of British armour that included one or two foreign tanks, but it's surprising to find out that most of this video's viewers only had eyes for the German Tiger !
Recommend time 21:15. Tiger drives up to and right by the camera. You can see why infantry would be spooked by such a noisy but intimidating chunk of steel. Thanks to the British Tank Museum for keeping such a piece of history in working order!!
I honestly am confused in thinking this building construction vehicle type noise(dont know the name sorry XD) is actually due to the added Feiffel air filters on the tiger 1 for the conditions of the typical African terrain
El tigre es el mejor tanque construido tanto por sus caracteristicas de desempeño como en su diseño, sin dudas los alemanes y la ingenieria alemana fueron y son actualmente la mejor del mundo
11:20 except that it was...as i learned from forgotten weapons, people get a misconception that the sherman was a poor fighter against other tanks which couldnt be further from the truth. The main gun of the sherman for late war models had the newly installed 76 millimeter main gun and was actually the same caliber as the british 17 pound gun, the ammo casing was just different so ammo was not interchangeable. This gun was also used for TANK DESTROYERS, which if you say tank destroyers cant fight against other tanks then idk... cant reason with you i guess.
Hey, everybody on the planet wants your Leopard 2 tanks so you can still feel proud about what you make. And in Ukraine, the German Leopards are fighting the Russian T-90s just like the good old days.
Interestingly, if the Tiger turns the tower with the driver's hatch open, he will tear out the hatch, will not be able to break it, will the lock work or is there a special mechanism that makes it easy to put in place?
The Tiger is one of the best looking vehicles ever made.

if only they ware more numerous and reliable
T34 may have been more simple to repair
Very early tigers had reliability issues due to the aluminum engine block. But once they switched to the HL230 engine, reliability was fine. However, they were high maintenance. And Germany suffered from very poor fuel, which caused the engines to run poorly depending on the fuel quality. The T-34 was simple, cheap to build, and did not require a high level of maintenance. But it was not an overly reliable tank. The Soviets were actually happy when they captured Panzer IV and Stug tanks because these were extremely reliable. But when capturing Panthers or Tigers, they would drive them till they broke, then leave them. And this was typically because they did not properly maintain them, as they had no reason to.
Imo only problem with the tigers was they needed more maintenance than other tanks and they drunk fuel like a fish in a time of overall fuel shortage.
That is a myth.. there are plenty of books that say otherwise. They leaked, the crew compartments were cramp and the crews were usually fatigued, other systems could fail.... They could actually leave the tank, and depending on where they were could jump in a new one. The armor also had plenty of weld deficiencies.
Ivan Ivanovsky Ivanovich german tanks were reliable, they weren't easily repaired tho
As a little kid in New Zealand in the 1960's there was a Valentine Tank in the local Limestone quarry which was a great place for us to play war games on . 😁 i think the Quarry owners had a pair of them.
AWESOME MAN!!! HISTORY.
Qué impresionante Obra de Ingeniería Alemana la del Tiger 131.....
Is Michael Rosen speaking over the intercom
Hero of the show : TIGER!
And then came the Tiger!
After reading all the comments below, I wonder...why 90% of them refer only to the Tiger 131 ? I thought this was a British show of British armour that included one or two foreign tanks, but it's surprising to find out that most of this video's viewers only had eyes for the German Tiger !
Star Gazer I like em all!
We know what we like and we like our Cats.
15:11 appearance of his majesty The Tiger 🐅
IS-2s f**d them in numbers till the end of the war
Leopard: I want to see action..
Tiger: You are going to shit on your pants my boy.
"Тигр" и сейчас завораживает и внушает уважение. Почти уверен, что он большей части всех тех танков навалял бы, кроме "Леопард"
Может и ис -2 то же наваляет, и армаде
the guy just chillin in the back of the Sd.Kfz. 2 is adorable.
*15:11** is what u came for*
Gustav der geländegängige and his all-mechanical, non-power brakes had a blast.
lool when the king tiger appears, there is a guy waving the nazi salute at it XD
There are still a lot with nazi beliefs I service diggers cars and basically all wished they had dropped arms and joined the Nazis
It's just a tiger, not king tiger
Recommend time 21:15. Tiger drives up to and right by the camera. You can see why infantry would be spooked by such a noisy but intimidating chunk of steel. Thanks to the British Tank Museum for keeping such a piece of history in working order!!
I honestly am confused in thinking this building construction vehicle type noise(dont know the name sorry XD) is actually due to the added Feiffel air filters on the tiger 1 for the conditions of the typical African terrain
21:33 you see the face of driver
What a fantastic video
some time they should saw us a full speed test tiger
They're worried abou the engine getting damaged or destroyed.
Love how the announcer called the KettenKrad (tracked motorcycle) "A motorbike on steroids". 15:07
Тигр очень красивый
El tigre es el mejor tanque construido tanto por sus caracteristicas de desempeño como en su diseño, sin dudas los alemanes y la ingenieria alemana fueron y son actualmente la mejor del mundo
The Germans must have been scared of Matilda one.
the funny thing is at first they were, in the battle of France the Germans didn't have anything that could penetrate it
@@chriscryer7087 - Till Rommel thought of using the 88mm. flak cannon as tank-buster...! That day the Matilda died.
11:20 except that it was...as i learned from forgotten weapons, people get a misconception that the sherman was a poor fighter against other tanks which couldnt be further from the truth.
The main gun of the sherman for late war models had the newly installed 76 millimeter main gun and was actually the same caliber as the british 17 pound gun, the ammo casing was just different so ammo was not interchangeable. This gun was also used for TANK DESTROYERS, which if you say tank destroyers cant fight against other tanks then idk... cant reason with you i guess.
Wonder if they have an Italian tank, 1 forward, and 5 reverse gears.
rickym49 guys thats the French, the Italians had 1 forward gear and 0 other gears as their gear was always the worst for the situation
One molotov it's enough to destroy and debilitate your tanks.
Try to ask to a folgore division
I am sorry to say, but the first thought that came into me when I saw the Matilda 1: what person has left his sowing machine without a leash??
I see the Tiger...
First thought... Damn, we Germans were good in building vehicles once😂
@Bish Bash nice 😂
Hey, everybody on the planet wants your Leopard 2 tanks so you can still feel proud about what you make. And in Ukraine, the German Leopards are fighting the Russian T-90s just like the good old days.
haha, that Firefly crew looked pretty Jelly when that Tiger rolled passed them.
Chase Howard Nah. A Sherman firefly killed 1 of Germany’s top tiger aces Michael Wittman..Wittmans Tiger got its turret blown off.
Немцы наверное ржали, видя в прицелах английские танки в начале войны
Bolsheviks brains
I go Bovington every year cant wait to see 131 atleast once
I saw a real tiger tank once.
Interestingly, if the Tiger turns the tower with the driver's hatch open, he will tear out the hatch, will not be able to break it, will the lock work or is there a special mechanism that makes it easy to put in place?
It must suck to be English...hating the Germnas ...but then the Germans always had the better weapons, beers, cars, football players
Harry Hirsch it must suck to be German...hating the britif ...but then the British could always win a war
Harry, don't forget that the Brits and Germans are close relatives...!
@@stargazer1744 to be short - the same shit
Very well done, very interesting thank you
