PUMA IFV - The Most Advanced Infantry Fighting Vehicle in the World
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 окт 2024
- We will discuss about the Puma Infantry Fighting Vehicle, a fully armored combat vehicle with excellent protection and effective direct fire support in the battlefield. The Puma Armored Infantry Fighting Vehicle (AIFV) is a tracked vehicle produced for the German Army by Projekt System & Management (PSM), a joint venture of Rheinmetall Landsysteme and Krauss-Maffei Wegmann (KMW), under a program authorized by the German Federal Parliament in 2002. It has been in service with German Army since 2015. However, as of August 2021, 350 units of the vehicle had been delivered in total. Previously, the Puma program was known as the Igel and the Neuer Schuetzenpanzer (NsPz).

The Iron Cross looks so handsome on the turret side...! It's a touch of class and distinction.
This thing has an 11.1L 1100hp V10 revving to 4300 RPM. 100 HP/L in a military vehicle. Leave it to the Germans to make a hot rod IFV.
Rides like one too. They always have puke bags on board, no joke.
@@jonny2954 Nein haben wir nicht. 🙂
@@tux8229 Doch. Nach Herstellerpackplan in der Tuchtasche unterm ZBG. Über den Dienstweg anforderbar. Packplan in der Einheit kann abweichen. Ist aber eher für Bildschirmverursachte motion-sickness bei Kommandant und Richtschützen als für den hinteren Kampfraum.
Freedom of speed is very important in Germany
well. seems impressive but HP/L doesn`t matter
Wow....I'm stunned ! Wish I could take one home.
Sure if you want something that is certain to breakdown!
Be a good boy, and Santa may bring one to you.

oh look, a Troll
Awesome video. Very informative and well thought out.
4:59 German Panzergrenadier dismounted element size is 6, not 8.
Ich glaube das bezieht sich auf den Raum der von den Panzerfäusten und dem Fach für ABC Masken eingenommen wird. Bzw bei der Chef Version wo die Funkanlage sitzt. Da könntest du noch 2 typen sitzen lassen
@@derfor2169 Theoretisch. Bei allen Versionen ist da das Funkgerät.
@@jonny2954 Bei der BW ja. Es gibt aber noch viele andere Kunden für das Ding, die durchaus 8 Mann statt Funkgerät einladen wollen ;)
@@Schuubi1896 gibt es nicht.
Es gibt keine Puma Exportkunden.
Probably the best in the world!
Must have a hell of a strong drive train!
the gun looks a lot like the Rheinmetall GDM-008 Millennium Gun in appearance, although this one uses 30mm instead of 35mm
It is a Mk 30 2
2:10 the Lynx has been officially ordered by Hungary and are set to arrive in Hungary starting 2023.
its a good choice to get weapons made all in 1 house. Lynx is also a great platform.
the thing is, that Lynx seems to have major reliability issues etc.
And its protection is very likely not better than Puma
Hungary has ordered the Lynx Kf41 with local production and R&D. Some 218~ pieces of it. Also ordered Spike missiles and SHORAD turret (Skyranger 30)for the platform that will have mistral 3 integrated.
What R&D? This thing has already been developed as a budget version of the Puma.
@@heinzkabofke6791 Not Budget. The Lynx is practically completely designed by Rheinmetall with their weapons systems and subsystems.
The Puma is the effort of the whole German defense industry to build an IFV. It’s systems come from individual companies and not solely from Rheinmetall.
@@ServusIchBins
Puma has the unmanned KMW turret and the sensor package that come with the unmanned fester.
The Lynx has the manned and proven lance turret.
Which is way cheaper.
The chassis is from Rheinmetall.
Hence: the budget version of the puma.
@@heinzkabofke6791 the turret can be chosen by the customer so it’s not mandatory to have a Lance gurret
@@lilpold9192
But it’s definitely not the kmw turret, that can be chosen.
Same goes for the sensor suite
Is the weight of an airplane reduced by removing armour off of the vehicle discussed in this video?
Top secret technique, but officially the Puma's weight is reduced by removing armor
Man WarThunder really did the PUMA dirty.
It has over a winrate over 60% 💀 it's far from bad
It really should get the spike missile launcher.
5 mths ago this video tell us how great puma ifv is, but today news report hundreds of puma ifv breakdown.
Hundreds? 18 Pumas broke down. After several weeks of no maintenance.
@@jonny2954 Rofl...18 of 18, thats a 0% success rate :D
@@JD-uk3vc Nop.e Turned out only 1 of the 18 vehicles actually had faults.
the problem is not on the vehicle side, but on the side of the Bundeswehr, wich scrapped its logistics and maintenance branch in 2011.
due to that, many systems could not be maintained in the Bundeswehr and required external providers.
this is slowly returning to normal operation (with in house maintenance etc), but still the Bundeswehr has some major maintenance problems remaining.
The Puma in question were for weeks in combat excercises prior to the break downs and had only troop level field maintenance done.
considering that, tthey held up quite well.
5.55mm for a co-ax MG is below the NATO 7.62mm standard as well
They’re switching to MG5 7.62
3:28 "that trough the simple disassembly of the flank protection modules on the Puma, the weight of the military Airbus A400M is reduced to 31,5 tons"
I'm sorry, WHAT?
the weight of the Puma is reduce to ...
Probably meant for transportation of this vehicle through A400
@@AB-nm7vy - Right.
They stated 5 dual road wheels on each side but highlighted 6. Puma is definitely one of the best out there.
Germany 🇩🇪 another Planet
Great interesting video!
I wouldn't say the headline is accurate though. *CV90* by BAE Systems Hägglunds is by many *considered top of the class.*
Yeah top of the class of year 1960.. Many are not considering cv90 even to fill the numbers of competitors…
@@geldoncupi1 Thank God you're able to write coherent sentences that make sense.
The German Army actually tested the CV90 in 2002. It was rejected because the ballistic and mine protection aswell as the growth capability did not meet their requirements. Only after that they started development on the Puma.
@@jonny2954 Cv90 mk Iv has many improvements
@@fuzer4047 But these improvements still lie within the growth capability limits of the baseline CV90 hull which were deemed insufficent by the German Army.
How is that Vehicle capable to fight

Good
06:49 HELLO GAIJIN WHERE ARE THIS ON MY PUMMAA? 😃
I assume that's MELLS, and probably not on your Puma cause it will malfunction anyway most of the time like everything else.
lol, i heard there is a puma out there that lasted 4hrs with out breaking down
4:15 maybe they shouldn't use that labeling visual for a German vehicle
Holy shit, I was looking at the image after seeing this comment and was wondering if it was something on the IFV itself, or the name similar to what they named them in World War 2.
And then I saw the unintentional swastika and thats fucking hilarious.
And now its among the best IFV's in War Thunder.
its not
not after its constant nerfs
@@niko7626 3 month old comment.
Its still a champ and i do as good in it at its br as i do at top tier.
Just play it correctly and you get free kills.
@@remus907 fair, but you can take way less punishment in 9.3 than in 8.3 ^^
2s38 is better.
I tedeschi hanno sempre fatto mezzi militari eccellenti dalla seconda guerra mondiale fino ad oggi .
5:50 you can clearly see the 6 not 5 wheels
Hope that they aren't overly engineered like their equipment was in ww2 causing breakdowns and maintenance nightmares.
Those mechanical troubles they met during WW2 were due exclusively to the almost impossible manufacturing conditions, subjected day and night to massive air raids and to poorly skilled labor, as all men fit for combat were drafted and replaced by women, old men and foreign workers.
By contrast, just see today's German top notch industrial quality working in peacetime with their excellent and skilled labor.
Просто красуня! Не вистачає ПТРК і ПЗРК по 4 з кожного боку.
Well judging by the expose today, they are said to be "Alle ausgefallen"! Being unreliable and breaking down was not something usually associated with German make!
So you've never owed a German car?
@@tomjohnston3393 I usually used to drive Mercs & they were very reliable
@@potkinazarmehr Well, they WERE, but ARE NOT any longer.
The lynx I believe is going to be the new bradly
Yes but your 70's guns are still ahead of Europes.. The problem with the Jerry's is perfection. Good job really, otherwise we English would have been speaking German after w.w2..
Yes and now you'll be speaking Arabic instead. Worked out great!
Next, Adiddas and FILA APV!
Now if only the USA could make an APC that's updated like this! Oh we tried but the government always builds prototypes and scraps them....
Well, Germany is purchasing US high-tech equipment. So the Us can also purchase the Puma :-) It would be a smart move by the US to motivate Germany to do more for its military capacity..
@@patrickbyrne7599 The PUMA would be great for the USA but it would never happen. We will just build more test models that work perfectly fine but cancel each and every one of them. It's the American way 🤣🤣🤣
@@henri6595 USA Army maybe buy the Lynx. It is also from Rheinmetall and the cheaper version of the Puma. (It has a maned turret and less armor)
@@eagelseye8089 - It's a second class, downgraded IFV....why not aim for the very best ?
@@henri6595 The US DoD actually wanted the buy the Puma in 2013. There still is a document by the CBO floating around on the web where it is compared to alternatives such as upgrading the Bradley. In the end it was the most effective, but also most cost effective solution, being 103% more lethal and 22% more mobile than the Bradley. They also stated that US forces equipped with the Puma would sustain 28% fewer losses of occupants and vehicles in combat as compared to the Bradley.
Then the US demanded disclosure of IP of the mine protection armor on the Puma, because they couldn't believe how effective it was. PSM (KMW/Rheinmetall) said fuck you and cancelled the whole thing.
Germany….they still make good AFV
Amazing work initiatives coverage
Jay hind sir . Bandemataram . Saath ek lakshya bhed...
The ammo is non-toxic.
Only one problem..THEY CONSTANTLY BREAK DOWN..and it's still not solved. Give me a CV 90 instead..
I would use depleted uranium rounds
“NBC” is now called CBRN (Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear)…
Funny I thought it was the other way around.
No the Swedish CV90 Mk.IV is !!!
Polski Borsuk jest lepszy pod każdym względem.

Pannenpanzer Puma
This vehicle didn't pass it's Certifications with the Bundesheer...Facts
It passed after failing once. It also passed NATO qualification and is currently part of VJTF.
Aren't the bullets too small and have no explosive ability ?
Too small for what ? It can penetrate every enemy it is supposed to penetrate, if you encounter a real well armored enemy you can still use the rockets, and don't forget, that it has airburst ammunition aswell. The main purpose is still to keep the crew alive and to support the troops.
سؤال من الافضل بينهم بيركدار او هذه الدبابه?

How are the best betoween bayrkttar turck and this vehcul sestem?....
خوي تراك إغتصبت الإنجليزية
ودي مو دباب دي ناقلة جنود
Your thing is turkish and gay
first improve your english, than talk about bayraktar drones. and that means, dont talk. (by the way, if i even understand that correctly, you compare a drone with a infantry fithing vehicle because turkey doenst have a single other good millitary product and needs to press the west to let them buy our millitary products, thats really dumb and really sad..). You idiotic guys can blackmail the nato as long as sweden and finland arent in the nato, but i promise you, directly after they are in, we will sanction turkey again and than turkey has nothing left to blackmail the nato. And from germany here you never will get an update for your outdated leopards a4 which we sold you. Germany cant be pressed and the great kurdish fighters still will crush this outdated versions with anti tank missles. i am so happy we didnt let turkey in the eu. oh god its bad to have them in nato but if we would have that dictatorship in the european union it would be a nightmare. frightening to think about that we actually talked about bringing turkey in the eu, it was a shame from the beginning
shame on you that you dared to use our tanks against kurdish people. this tanks are made to fight AGAINST not FOR a dictatorship, you abused our millitary equiptment for the pure evil and we never will forgive you for that
I would add a twin 30 mm cannon
Why
the lynx should be less armored than the puma.
KF41 and T15 are both less armored than Puma... only the israel Namer is more heavy armored based on the Merkava Mk IV... but Namer is more a APC than a IFV because it lacks the firepower of a IFV
@@nagmashot not certain about the t 15 but I have to slightly doubt your claimed about the narmer. There is a theoretical version of the puma that would be able to carry as many people as the narmer. This would mean more protection for the crew. However since the narmer is based on an mbt its front protection might still be better.
Should be able to take a anti tank missiles and still function
These guys definitely watch DollarPlays
Should be able to take a anti tank mine and still function
45mm would be amazing with 60mm auto grenade launcher and quad anti tank rockets
And a 50 Cal with 400 rounds of ammunition 45 mm auto canon would have about 80 to 90 bullets the 60 mm Automatic grenade launcher would have about 150 to 200 grenades
Po co komu taki pojazd jak o zgodę na szczelanie i sprzedaż trzeba pytać producenta w czasie konfliktu szkoda pieniędzy bezużyteczny złom
holy crap this thing can crush a tank armor?
Easily crush most of Russias tanks armour. T-72’s and T80’s won’t stand a chance
Send it to Ukraine let us see how it will fare there
The biggest mistake that Russia made invading Ukraine is waking up Germany 🇩🇪. The pioneers of art of war and ingenuity and before you say they were defeated by Russia 🇷🇺 in world war 2, that is not true Nazi were defeated by an alliance
nice rig repalce 556 with 308 or 7.62 but thas jus me
I think they’re switching to MG5 7.62
So pretty🤤
Remind me how many of the 18 pumas deplayed in the last german military exercise broke down.
Answer: 18 broke down. The puma is far from being the most advanced fighting vehicle of modern time. By the way after working for 15 years with different german companies I can see how steadily the german quality goes down.
German engineering !
Should be able to take out Russia and china main battle tanks
This is my best light tank in playing video game. However, Stingers can be really nasty too if not spotted right away the speed of the tank can be useless
Wolfenstien 2050 will be interesting
If you ask me it still under the performance of Kurganets and T 15 Armata but its clearly better than Lnyx, Bradley and Terminator
both T-15 Armata and Kurganets have not left prototype stage and will very likely never enter production or service, so they are in the end irrelevant
I just love this little wonder...! It should be immediately added to every Western Army...! There's nothing better on the market and it is worth every euro you pay for it. German military engineering at its finest !
oops
Puma just made news for breaking down on action.
I know that is a massive nitpick, but can you try to make graphics like this not make it look like you are drawing a swastika 4:11 at least not when talking about German stuff.
Lol
17 million dollars for 1 Puma is way to much for any normal warfare.
no one has to pay for this ... the Puma is a technology carrier and therefore excluded from exports
Ukraine should buy this asap
it’s not for export
Can I get a DIY build kit from a Sears catalog? lol
Vs Terminator?🥴
I think it should also have had some sort of anti tank missile
Pretty sure it can get spike missiles
it has 2 spikes

"balanced"
Looks pretty good works pretty shitty.
didnt the US Army looking into buying these?
the lynx version, I think. Pumas are not for sale, atm.
Yes, however they had concerns about the vehicle's force protection features, primarily the proposed active protection system and underbody armor, and 20 significant weaknesses which had potential solutions offered that were judged as inadequate. They didn't find any vehicle matching their requirements, so they rebooted the competition. Their new IFV has to be capable to operate optionally unmanned. Contenders are the Griffin III, Lynx OMFV, a version of the AS-21 Redback, Liberty IFV and another unnamed one from BAE Systems.
🦁🖤❤💛🦁
Germany has the best Militär Vehicles! But the Vehicles and pimped from Rheinmetall goes to the Export! WTF!!!!!! What is here wrong?
The Lynx is not better than the puma. Manned turret and wayyyyy les electronic gizmos.
And the KF51 is just a tiny spin off from the Eurotank developement, the real thing gon be next gen.
War is won by raw courage of soldiers , Axis powers led by Germany lost and Soviet Union and allies won World War 2 .
😂😂😂Read some Books.
War was Win by Industrial Capacity of the Allied.The Courage of the German Soldiers was by far bigger than the Allies
@@gesternvorgestern1868 Nothing succeeds like sucess.
Sent it to Ukraine to test it..
Not in a mill... not in 10 years.
If we do, we first had Ukrainian knuckleheads filming them selfes showing off our high tech... and then eventiually even have the Rusky capture one.
And they would marvel at the tech unable to grasp or copy it... but still.
Germany could ship some Pumas to Ukraine to have them tested on real battlefield against Russians. Not to mention it is in Germany's best interest to weaken their most probable enemy right here, right now.
that's never happening they can send Marder's but even me i wouldn't send Pumas. the risk of having it taken and examined is to high that can severely risk national security
One can’t win a future war in advance. New Russians will be born and they will build new tanks. We killed 13 million of them in the last war and they rebuild their military nonetheless. It’s best for Germany to save its equipment until needed.
We can't even get them to work during exercises in our own country if we send Pumas to Ukraine it would be a logistical nightmare
No.
@@Marvin-ud8co xD
I see what he did there 4:13
Ahh yes, reminds me of war thunder moments
By god, i would really like to see one of these getting destroyed.
France chill... They are on our side now. For now.
Drones... Modern warfare has changed for the Western theatre and all Western military's should be adapting their weaponry and tactics to incorporate this , just as Blitzkrieg changed warfare all those years ago with the use of the new weapons so too should they change now... Drone carriers could well be the next IFV for long range engagements followed up by infantry to take and hold the ground after combined arms have destroyed the enemy forces that hold and can engage any troops entering the battle zone. Land warfare may well evolve into a type of warfare more akin to Naval warfare where ships would not see each other but engage and destroy their opponent. Just my thoughts , but a long time ago I did a survey about drones in warfare and stated that drones could change the battlefield in a massive way. We are seeing some of it in Ukraine right now , but the potential of drones has still not been unlocked anywhere near where they evolve to.
(was it Harvey TwoFace of Batman; Army Navy) blind stupid simple doodah Luck...

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY 💰
Puma to szajs, po ćwiczeniach na poligonie 18 pum,sprawnych po zakończeniu 0!!! poinformował jakiś niemiecki oficer,ale jaja ale szajs!
It looks heavy and expensive for being an infantry fighting vehicle, like the hull is too close to being the hull of a tank.
It is made for the German Army, we have a specialised unit which is called "Panzergrenadier".
It means higher protection for the infantry they carry ! That's what money is for.
@@pedrolistacarey4880 if you can't think beyond "weight = protection", then you should ask why they didn't make a tank like Merkava (which can also do troop transport) instead of an IFV. Heavy vehicles makes the fuel consumption higher and it becomes less mobile - especially on soft ground. Do I really need to explain why that is important? Which one is best protected, the one that is stuck or the one that can swiftly cross plains without refueling? Take your time to answer.
@@daniel931016 the merkava can not transport infatriy units as an IFV. It can carry a few guys if needed but only for emergenxies and has to leavve a lot of ammo for this. The fuel consumption is close to our MBTs so they only charge as far as our tanks. Our IFVs are designed to work close with MBTs units. Those ar not simple battlefield taxis
German export vehicle. Shame they don't take their own advice.
Puma is not for export. Only Bundeswehr has like 300 of them
@@heinzkabofke6791 It was intended for export, however no one wanted them. It was offered to Hungary, but they wanted the cheaper Lynx. The Czech Republic said, it didn't meet their requirements and chose the swedish CV-90 instead. The US tested it too, and wasn't happy with the proposed APS system, mine protection and found about 20 more issues. In the end no contender met their requirements.
😭😭😭😭
Very evil in Warthunder 🙃
seems really good.. Curious to see how easy it is to maintain. The krauts tend to make things more complicated than they ought to be.
Maintenance seems to be easier than with the cv 90
If your life depends on it, you want it complicated, because Russians are bad at complex technologies.
You confuse complicated with sophisticated.
'Krauts'? FU
Everything they make is state-of-the-art....a gem.
you forget about Sweden vehicle and Israeli Namer
This video didn't hold up well.
It is a low quality defence system 🤮
the most advanced infantry fighting vehicle is t15 armata , nice try
Later production date does not necessarily mean more advanced. Lynx KF41 and AS21 Redback also have later production dates than the Puma but just like the T-15 they do not incorporate as much advanced technology as the Puma. Armata running gear only have the first and last 2 roadhweel pairs on hydropneumatic suspension, the center ones are torsion bar. Puma has a full hydropneumatic suspension, which is additionally also fully decoupled. Power density on the Puma powerpack is also significantly higher. Optronics isn't even a topic, that point goes to Hensoldt. Pumas main armament is airburst-capable. T-15 is not. Neither the 30 nor the 57 mm module.
Considering the vehicle size and weight the Puma is apparently also better protected, weighting just 7 tons less at less than 60% of the protected volume.
Were is the armata???? It still never seen on a combat field - the truth is that it is just a demonstarator, 10 years away from combat readyness.
LOL ! Nice moving targets for the A.I. drone swarm to eliminate in the first 28 seconds of contact. R.I.P.
- I REALLY hope you don't waste men's lives by putting them into this mobile metal coffin box.
Because putting them out there without any equipment is so much safer....
an ifv so advanced that no one can use it effectively
I think Germany should go for the Lynx IFV’s
The Lynx is not airliftable
why ? the puma is superior. also rheinmetall owns a big part of the Puma manufacturer conglomerate. 30% more or less.
Lynx is for Export and so would the KF51 Panther be. The Puma and the next MBT fromm German/french cooperation will be Mode expensive but also more capable!
@@malo1996 yeah..the better version (KF51) is for export and the german military get the german/french tank. :(
@@Kurikost_ Not really, no.
The KF51 is a neat upgrade to a Leo2A4. The Nexter/KMW Eurotank will be next gen.
