  1. Self propellled artillery should be called SPARTY and I’m not giving up on this
    731
  2. “We are missing 439 men” I feel like this was a common saying after 1942
    593
  3. For missing T-80s, it’s worth remembering when the Russian economic woes of post USSR happened, the Russian military was still humongous even as it was being downsized, perhaps they began just cancelling spare parts contracts and just cannibalized existing vehicles, as there was no one to man them anyway, or for parts to sell abroad to anyone who wanted to purchase them, or to former soviet republics whos armed forces inherited some Last important thing that many normies miss is that Russian ‘stored’ tanks are not like say American stored tanks, they’re basically just left in mass vehicle graveyards sitting around, pre war Russians held some 15+ brigades worth of ex soviet heavy equipment for mobilization, so the implication is beyond that there aren’t lots of well preserved vehicles

  4. “Any tank is better than no tank” Logistics corps: sweats nervously
    479
  5. Sad German is my favorite icon That and the uh...other ‘escort’ icon...
    411
  6. “Except for Fallout 76” truer words could not be spoken
    352
  7. „Hey Hans, we are a dealing with a really tough fuel situation, what should we do?” „Franz is it not obvious? Make weapons that shoot oil and fuel!”
    340
  8.  @ragnarokstravius2074  “it all started with a guy named Charlemagne...” “Wait what? What’s that gotta do with the Wehrmacht?” “WE GET THERE WHEN WE GET THERE!”
    250
  9. “24km away” stormtrooper icon
    205
  10. “A ‘panzerstein’ monster” I’m wheezing
    202
  11. Nebelwerfer tactics: “do you see that building, Hanz?” “Ja” “Then you understand the problem, solve it”
    174
  12. “...Unless you don’t believe in logistics” Well I work in the Reichstag, so guess what?! I DONT BELIEVE IN YOUR FAIRY TALE OF ‘Logistics’
    156
  13. “If I pronounced your name wrong; you’re welcome”
    139
  14. This war is MHV’s worst nightmare A whole bunch of Slavic names to pronounce
    97
  15. That’s quite a bold and provocative title…almost like you want to ambush us…
    95
  16. Air deployable Panzer II with rockets Because blitzkrieg didn’t die with the Reich
    78
  17. Chinese currently have no reason to conduct such…activities…the primary threat is has and remains the Americans for China, relations with Russia being good is very desirable, so they can mostly be ignored while the Chinese solidify their position
    67
  18. A sad fate, surviving the most devastating war while captured by the west, and when you finally get to go home, the Russians snatch you
    60
  19. “Or other late war problems” Shows a ATG munition
    56
  20. Is the suspect reposition line (16:45) a reference/informative to the studying soldier how tanks are blind despite their firepower so you shouldn’t attempt to evade suppression fire and instead just keep pounding the enemy tanks in an effort to put the tank crew on the back foot? I remember chieftain said during his soviet armor doctrine about the Spanish civil war that the T-26 crews could hardly see the anti tank guns since they were so small, which would suggest the best thing for the crew isn’t to move but to stand and fight and try to understand the whole “they can’t see us that well” Staying hidden helps too with the lack of muzzle brake as you mentioned

  21.  @MilitaryHistoryVisualized  you ever hit your own plane with the Flak Bus while using an AP round? I did
    48
  22. When the MP40 was the most accurate and in general best SMG of the war too, Hollywood continues to be awful
    48
  23. Be warned there’s probably an unknown amount of grass is greener on the other side, it’s easy to point out the flaws in something you know about
    42
  24. I think it’s just because they’re similar in capability and people like to make analogous comparisons Most people forget panzer 3 was a medium tank despite being pretty small for a medium tank
    41
  25.  @Ranyick  Panther tank designation began with D, and then went to A
    40
  26. I wanna know about the threat to Moldova frankly…especially considering that map Lukashenko showed off where an arrow went into transistria…
    39
  27. That would actual have a bigger impact than most may think at first glance It’s the easiest way for the common soldier to see the difference, it was common for officers of merchant fleets centuries ago to eat good while the basic sailors ate watery flour essentially and that was never appreciated
    39
  28.  @astartesfanboy5294  it’s too innocent we must preserve it no one tell
    33
  29. Oh yes another video I can watch with my girlfriend, thanks Bernhard!
    32
  30. Ein Minenwerfer, it werfs minen
    32
  31. “Enough to make you obsolete and not a world power”
    31
  32. I wasn’t a fan of the movie either, and in this scene my first question was “If both sides are fighting each other and we’re coming to help…why not flank the enemy and roll them?”
    29
  33. That was a big problem after the invasion of the Soviet Union was the feeling that the panzers were inferior to the Russian tanks especially after 1941, that’s why the whole point in guderians text was for the troops to regain a feeling of weapon superiority over the Russians
    28
  34. I mean they left Belarus and Russia Should they be rejected purely for their nationality/ethnicity? That’s exactly what Russia accuses everyone of
    27
  35. Sheep op plz nerf visual range
    26
  36.  @spitefulwar  155mm shell noise
    26
  37. Wasn’t there only 800 people who made it back to axis lines after the breakout? Guy was lucky to make it
    25
  38.  @Furzkampfbomber  I detest the Russians on just about everything, but more subjectively I could never blame them for the treatment of German POWs, considering what the reverse situation looked like But yeah, it’s always the top guys who get off scot free, while the lower guys are the ones who take the beating
    25
  39. @ wrong, tell that to the starving Soviet citizens “Hey, you guys wanna lose out on 40% of our food supplies? We are already suffering significant hunger” Or the Air Force “hey guys wanna lose almost all of our aluminum and aviation fuel supplies because we don’t make that kind of fuel?” I humbly disagree with this myth Or the factories “hey guys wanna lose out on our machine tool suppliers?” Or the guys making explosives “hey guys wanna lose out on 2/3s of our materials for making explosives?” The Soviets didn’t stop them in 1941, considering they continued pushing in 1942, besides 40% of all medium+ armor was western sourced at the battle of Moscow. I humbly disagree
    25
  40. MHV: “ah finally, the Christmas season break has arrived” German government: ”I’m about to end this man’s whole career”
    24
  41. Bit hard to say the war was lost in 1940 when the two main forces that would defeat the Germans weren’t in the war I think After all, within outside support (especially American) the Soviets wouldn’t have survived the war, whether or not the Germans lost
    24
  42.  @georgepalmer5497  no, the M60 is still the M60 even with upgrades, Chieftain went over why this is a silly idea
    23
  43. Comparisons make tons of sense, most Tank platoons fight other tank platoons when tank units come against each other An entire battalion isn’t gonna be 5m away from each other on both sides, at the end of the day when a tank goes to shoot another tank, the tank comparison will matter quite a lot
    23
  44.  @astartesfanboy5294  he used that icon when talking about fighter escorts in I think the Battle of Britain video or some other Luftwaffe video
    22
  45. This comment is what I would call making excuses more so than explanations Rifle grenades were nothing new, and every army had intended to support the infantry’s movement with the tanks, no he ammo is: hilarious in all honesty, especially since that’s a majority of all targets you’d be dealing with even in a world war 1 redux
    22
  46. as a Jew this comment concerns me
    22
  47. “Losses before the battle?!” Rainbow dash token I agree
    21
  48. @ that’s great, now tell me how the red Air Force is supposed to not let the Germans rain hellfire again with no fuel and how the Soviet artillery is supposed to…artillery without any explosive material, or how the people are supposed to eat with no food, or how the factories make equipment without tools Stopping them once isn’t enough (just ask the French), you can still be broken, and they would have no ifs ands or buts
    21
  49. Just for accuracy the National Guard is a part of the US army, they’re not separate (the Air National Guard is the same for the Air Force) in any meaningful way for him
    20
  50. Guess the Germans didn’t have anything wrong with their bloody ships…
