Whole divisions of Egyptians lost their nerve and abandoned all their tanks and vehicles and tried to walk back to Egypt only to be taken prisoner by the tens of thousands or machine gunned by their own people when they tried to cross back into Egypt.
I love the Syrian announcer claims how hard the Arabs could fight. They had more of everything and got their rear ends handed to them!
👍
They prioritize tea time
They can fight. They have killed thousands of Americans recently. If you denigrate the ability of the Arabs as warriors, you are denigrating Americans who died in the wars in the Middle East.
Yes, they were hobbled by corrupt leaders and systems. But, they are as brave and skilled and as tough as anyone else.

America isn't the one that kicked all there ass's at the same time.

🙊🙉🙈GoogleRUclips👶removed my reply to you. A terrible monopoly. I violated no YT guidelines. Good luck with your replies friends.🖖🤞👍
This was classic, Gamel Abdel Nasser the leader of the Arab World fell for the old vice of believing your own propaganda. He thought with all their new Soviet weapons, the Arab were invincible. Only to have Israel hand him is ass on a plate! One of the greatest victories against the odds in all history.
👍
Don't mess with God's ppl 🤷♂️🤷♂️
I'm graphed in the vine btw... ✝️
Sit down e you are nothing end sii down E end F notes😂
It is not the Tank. It is the crew.
True but helps to have a good tank too.
They had centurions which proved over many many differing conflicts to be a solid and effective vehicle, consistently bettering contemporary and newer American and Russian designs.
To a point, this is true. Like the battle of Kursk, the Germans knocked out Russian tanks 6-1, yet they lost. Better trained crews, equal or better tanks; but top-tier leadership and time did not go the way of Germany. Israel had an audacious but achievable goal, they aggressively pursued it, exploited advantages, and ultimately obtained it.
@@davidwestfall4336 -- the Russians used quantity against the Germans like the west did with their Sherman’s, etc.
@@davidwestfall4336 I didn’t say anything against that. What I commented upon was the narrative driven here that they had inferior tanks when this was clearly not the case. Further they suggest the L7 was an Israeli upgrade to the centurion which is not true when it was the de facto armament for the later centurions and a wide range of tanks, being std nato armament into the 80s. So you are correct but the narrative is overblown detracting from what you say. I think I am correct in saying that in every single conflict the centurion outfought the T54/55 and the later T62.
With Soviet equipment comes Soviet doctrine. That was a big part of the problem. Another is crew training, it takes time and money to train a good tanker. And if the tanks are roughly comparable then training is key.
US Army, 3rd Armor, 2/3 Field Artillery, 155mm self-propelled howitzer, Charlie battery; Butzbach, West Germany 75-77; We spent at least 6 months each year in the field training. That was considered normal.

Same at the other side of the fence.
East-German army (NVA), 28th MSR Rostock, 1st tank battalion, 1st platoon. 1983-1986. I was a T-55 tank commander.
Shooting at all movement modes day and night (IR), tactics, driver training and underwater river crossing. We were permanently in one or another field training, summer and winter, rain or shine, day or night. Attack and defence, fire position and marches.
Peace! from Dresden / Germany
Only viewed the northern, ie Syrian, field of that war.
Going there from America, I realized they have to defend a nation about the size of a postage stamp. Time is an extremely critical factor, and they cannot afford to sacrifice a single mile.
Most of the time it IS the tank. Imagine a Tiger tank compared to an M1A1 today. Need I say more?
It was an informative and wonderful historical coverage documentary in military sites about 7 days of war in 1967 in the Middle East ...
You are easily satisfied, I would suggest you read something authoritative rather than relying on propaganda films on RUclips.
It wasn't the tanks. It was the "Thanks!" 4:32
It is hard to fight against a Nation as united and as strong as Israel. And their survival is proof of their God, he has preserved them thru thousands of years full of persecution, tribulation, and death. God bless Israel!
M48 more reliable than the Centurion? - Once Tal imposed the correct routine maintenance the Centurion was better in almost every respect. The reason the M48 was used in the Sinai was it could not cope as well as the Centurion in the difficult terrain in the Golan!
The centurion was fitted with the British L7 105mm
When you put armor in static defensive positions, you lose the advantage of mobility, & maneuver is the rimary advantage of armor. Perhaps the arab commanders understood their crews were not trained to high standards. The "maneuver " through an "impassable" location gave the Israeli division the element of both surprise combined with manuever. They used their tanks according to armor doctrine.
Wouldn't say the patton was better than than the centurion
But General Patton's doctrine was carried out in this War. "Fixed Fortifications are monuments to fools."
They both have their advantages and disadvantages. The Patton tank was more reliable and required less modification. The centurion had a shorter profile and slightly better optics.
They were about the same in the end.
Just like today, anybody who underrates Israel is going to be in for a surprise! In 1947-48, they survived with some surplus German BF109s and later some US B17s smuggled in as passenger planes through a cooperative US businessman. A tactic they used again to bomb Egypt. The Egyptians didn't know Israel had any bombers, so the B17s flew over Egypt as passenger planes. Egypt only found out they were bombers when the bombs dropped. Israel survived despite overwhelming odds! Despite US and British blockades of Israel no help.
I would say the centurion was actually the best tank they had
Patton? The Centurion was the best tank the Israelis had by far.
I was thinking the same thing. American documentary pfft
Absolutely Centurion was way better ..
Patton ..🙄🙄
Watch the tank museum tank talks with David Wily he has done one on the patton ,and at first the M48s used the L7 British gun..
The Centurion was one of the tanks in the U.S. arsenal during the Korean war & it's crews experienced great success: it's performance is still legendary in the cronicals of tank warfare history.
@@markrunnalls7215the centurion originally used the 17 pounder, so what's your point?
@@fredjacobsen5025yet the Sherman tank had the highest kill to loss ratio by far, even outpacing the Pershing.
Years later I saw the destruction on this battlefield. IDF destroyed them. Numbers don't mean victory.
A animated go for the war see it.
As an Israeli (I watched only the start of this "documentary"). There are lots of false facts, and propaganda. For example, the airstrike operation wasn't planned for 10 years, only about 3 weeks. Also, what started the war was the Egyptians closing the Suez canal for Israeli shipping. Which meant (at that time) the end of Israel.
They lost then and they are still losing today 😂
That's NOT what's going on today. Do not muddy past with present.
@@nebojsanesic5326
Yeah... it is!
Zero difference.
Arabs unwilling to live peacefully along side jews.
Nothing has changed.
@@nebojsanesic5326 yes it is
In your dreams
The T55 has good Armour, good gun, good mobility and is able to operate in the desert…..and yet;
It was trounced by Israel using Sherman’s, M48 and Centurions on all fronts in every battle.
Wester ‘experts’ have telling how good Russian kit is since 1943.
Yet it has been, is being and will continue to be trounced by older wester weapons and be utterly useless as a VW beetle in war.
Realities of God's existence
Realities of the Devils existence. 😈 but at the same time your right becasue what's the devil without a God!
Both sides claim God. 🤷♂️
Where is the discussions 0f the miracles God did for His chosen people? No discussion about Israel’s victories can be understood without understanding that God told us He’d do these things!
And yet the game continues ! ✌️ Shalom 🙏 Hallelujah 🙏 praise Allah...... Peace 🙏✌️
Should never have given the Sinai back !!!! Being nice is not practical or peaceful
40 tonnes is NOT light ! You don'y even know what the Patton weighs - LAME Channel ! Lots of repeat video, too !
Keep saying T55s but show t34s. Get updated cgi
There were some of each.
Sounds just like the Iraq war.. bagdad is completely secure there are not american tanks
They pull a Democrat
these docos so missed the mark. the israelies destroyed 3 armies in 6 days because those armies were not preppared or trained to fight. its why its called the 6 day war
They attacked first. And are still playing the eternal victim card.
How?
To be fair in this instance they pre-emoted an Egyptian attack. One of the reasons for their success was that a lot of the Egyptian forces were postured to attack rather than defend
In fact they were fooled by Russian diplomats, who convinced them the Arab coalition were poised to attack. They weren’t.
That's the profession of the Arab world
They lie. Its their belief steming from the quan
The Israeli's were smart by attacking first because if they didn't the Egyptians would have (or that's what the intelligence predicted) and by attacking first they could gain a tactical advantage, among others in the air. If it was Israel's goal of occupying the Sinai then why didn't they keep it but retreated instead in exchange for an enduring peace deal? The Israeli's simply want to live in peace in Israel and don't (constantly) want to have the threat of being annihilated. If you were a small country if you were smart you probably also weren't going to wait for a big country like Egypt take the initiative against you.
Why is this documentary such bilge. It is as though you wish to make a point and work back to ‘prove’ it regardless of the truth. It is full of half truths that any vaguely knowledgeable person can see through. Try better
These 'documentaries' are made for US audiences who care little for facts and love propaganda.
Wow, thats a lot of vagueness. Are there any specific points you'd like to call out as false? Is it just - the whole thing? Did the Israelis, in fact, lose the Six Day War?
@@l3uIletpoints the ‘documentary’ uses half truths to prove a point. It is not a serious piece of historical accuracy but instead a powder puff piece of nonsense. Of course the general facts are true but there is the perpetual thread that Israel has poorer equipment and is at a clear disadvantage on the battlefield. In fact much of its equipment has proven to be superior than that fielded by the Arab countries in many different conflicts
@l3uIletpoints
Its a coping arab/arab sympthizer😂
