ITALIAN JAGD-MAUS-TIGER | 75/34 M43 Tank DESTORYER 

Phly: "You need more depression" Phly: *gives him depression*

“The most fun I could have on this map is to leave the game and turn the computer off.” Words to live by

one day one of Phly's thumbnails will look like an actually produced tank

HELLO, STEVE. THIS IS THE THUMBNAIL POLICE! I'M GOING TO HAVE TO ARREST YOU NOW FOR GOING TOO FAR. PLEASE SURRENDER YOUR PHOTOSHOP ARTIST AND PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK!

That fight with the T-34 was amazing at the end especially when you both silently agreed to become friends. Make me sad I can't match up with folk like this lol

Phly, could you maybe start a "best of tier" series? Maybe in categories such as best armor, or most survivable(no armor, best armor), or best gun(maybe separate best pen and best post pen explosive)? Maybe even aircraft? Maybe even tech tree sections? Any thoughts ppl?

that ending made me sooo happy, those moments dont happen often enough

Most of these Italian tanks (especially lower tier) remind me of small dogs. They mostly just irritate people with their constant noise and relatively harmless (yet highly irritating) ankle biting. Yet every now and then one comes along that somehow commands fear and respect, and is underestimated at your peril.

I love it when the enemy actually wants to just mess around

That white T-34 was hella smart and is the biggest giga chad I've seen in a long time.

Gaijin: “Tank destroyer” Me: “I’m sure it is buddy, sure it is.”

Glad to see you playing this tank, it's one of my favorites in the Italian tree

russian barrels don't get taken out anymore when you shoot them from the front even dead center compared to other vehicles. unless they have a muzzle brake or u shoot them from the side

those earlier Italian tank destroyers are excellent if you can hide behind a shallow hill, aim with binoculars, and dip shots on people who just can't hit you

What I especially love about this is that the armor is not flat 100mm, but 75mm RHA + 150mm air + 25mm RHA. It's the ultimate anti-HEAT armor, especially at the br. The APHE, while having mediocre pen, has a really amazing 270g of HE filler, which easily overpressures anything that you can pen.

To answer the question of why that plate is missing a spot but still stops rounds, look at it from a close-up from above. There's a slight gap in the armor (its spaced apparently) and when you get the mouse all up in there you'll find that the hole in the 75mm plate has a 90mm plate covering it. So there's actually *more* armor there than the rest of it.

You might have played it already, but the last Sermovente (75/46 M43) is STILL underrated. It's been moved up to 4.7 and still claps cheeks. I love it to bits. By far my favourite tank to play in the whole Italian tech tree, if not the whole game.

The bigger brother of the 75/46 M43 is a beast as well, better gun the the Pz IV penetration wise and the armor is 100m+ like this one and it still works amazingly.

Once I won in a 4v1 with two StuH's, a BT-7, and Pz.3 with this thing, it was amazing. StuH's are literally not able to pen your front plate since they're spaced

"This is a horrible example of fool me three times, I'm not gonna get fooled again." Me: whatever could he mean by that? "They unlock this one, get murdered. Unlock this one, get murdered. Unlock this one, get murdered." Me: a bit harsh, but not far off. "So by the time they get to this one, the 75/34 M43, they're not gonna do it." Me: that's true. I did skip that last Semovente. "And they should do it." Me:... NOOOoooOOOooo! In short, that was exactly my thought process with this particular vehicle and recently, too, at least in my Italian tank grind terms. Phly is psychic. Phlychic, if you will. Day 21: Take the Scimitar out and do some MCLOS missile CAS.

75/46 is also very good a better round as well 149 mm penetration and decent armor surprisingly survivable

Phly pushes t-34 T-34 “ and I took that personally “

The 75/xx M43 tank destroyers are very underrated and unloved machines, brilliant as they are

always love it when italy gets some love

Don't laugh guys this was our pinnacle in terms of WW2 tanks.

Wow, what a coincidence, I started grinding the Italian ground tree today, the P40 has become one of my favorite tanks in the game.

I HAVE BEEN PREACHING THIS TANK FOR YEARS! so many players overlook the spaced armor on those italian TDs

When Phly play: half od the enemy team is blind. When I play: that one tiger, two kilometers away shot me thru three bushes and one wall right into weakspot and kills me. Sry for my english... I'm still learning.

2:21 - 2:27 This is the most historically accurate summary of the Italian War Effort during WWII

i wish there was more italy stuff to play. Especially CAS it would be much more fun than it already is.

Finally Italian stuff, thank you phly

finally this underrated tank has been used nobody actually uses the italian tank destroyers

20:06 "Can love really bloom in the battlefield...?"

An Italian meatball we made of everything German? Sounds excellent.

Plhy: well well well the Turn table has turn! T34:revurse card😄

That last duel with the t34 was some Girls und Panzer shit lmaoooo

the 105/25 and the 75/46 are actually pretty good

"Exit the map and turn off the game", was me this morning. I am not the greatest at playing this game, but the two games I played this morning. The team I was on got the butts handed to them with no problem at all.

5:07 "guys our team is so good right now" *friendly kills another friendly with arty in feed*

I love moments like those when you meet a friendly enemy tank. Such special moments

phly aiming to the worst spot possible for heat to work and complaining about the t-34's yep that's why we love phly-the-daily

The version of this with the 90mm gun is amazing.

Only OG's remember when the Title included Tank Destoryer

"Gosh our team's so good right now" Cue arty TK in the feed :D

Day 48: We want the whole "Phly Album", its almost done (Long Range Yeets, The Missile Knows Where It Is, The Final Countdown...), just put them all on one LP and I will buy it.

0:38 That kabedon to the palm tree 😳

Like, dude, cmon, as much as I love Italian TD's, more especially this one's older brother the 75/46 m43, don't you think it'd pair well with the P.108 Serie A? It's better to take out the Mega Duck at a higher br where there's less aaa, imo, such as maybe 5.7 with the 90 heatfs Italian Sherman/Jackson TD. Just try it....

22:00 The drivers plate is also 75mm and modelled extra in the armor showcase.

I find the 105/25 better for his BR , the gun is sooooo better than the 75

"We became friends!" Wholesomeness overload.

21:08 I love the character development here.

Fun fact actually the 75 before this one has a great Canon and is awesome to snipe with

Heya Phly, can you try out the Air Defense Anti Tank System (ADATS) as a Brawler? Its Phull Auto Missile system and Meme armor provide the most AIDS inducing combo in the game. (Day 58)

I actually love all these m43s. Mainly the 105 and this one

The thing that let's me down with the Semoventes isn't the gun, which while underperformed I can work with, it's the mobility. They're just a bit too sluggish on anything but hard road that I can't use them as well as I'd like. Still a solid performer at most of its brs, but it could be better. It could be a StuG

Gotta use the 105 and it's meaty HEAT round and do long range yeets. Super satisfying

17:45 I laughed so hard when you called the stuH "the Störmheibutz" took me a second to get what you mean but I love the effort😂❤️

German transmission: And so the IS-2 fired and I'm like, "you can't get through me!" Russian driver's hatch: "nyet comrade no German round will punch past my bulletproof glass!" Italian transmission: So I'm like, "well that's what you get for makin me outta cardboard and fiberglass!" (*round: penetrates to kill the entire crew* 9:17)

the white tank towards the end totally made my night.

I disagree about the 105/25 leaving a bad taste in your mouth. One of my favorite TD's in the game because it's armor will still protect you sometimes, good depression values, and the gun is so PUNCHY. I'd say you should give it another look.

Day 221: Play the forgotten Mig-9 and show everyone the power of the original 37MM/23MM Vodka launcher Jet.

Mutual Respect, no one has to die today... Except for all the other guys that were previously killed

I started War Thunder with the Italians and the French, it was painful but now I’m in 7.0 and it’s going much better

This thing used to be the hope against Char 2-b's when they'd be bullying any other thank that couldn't pen them, but then this thing would come in with it's heat rounds and dunk on them. I think it was balanced.

Phly should know by now that the T-34 Driver Hatch is made out of Pure Stalinium.

Oh that wrestling at the end was beautiful and then to have a gentleman's agreement to part as friends! Fabulous

The friendship at the end made this video.

It's NOT the damn bushes That's just what Gaijin DOES: makes their OWN tanks 100mm thicker than they EVER were irl We ALL caught them with the IS-6 controversy when somebody datamined it. It's not even a meme anymore, it is a fact: Gaijin Entertainment has a home-reigon bias that they just GIVE their home nations vehicles unfair advantages with god-mods with total impunity.

it was a really enjoyable episode

"We became friends" - great battle...

An Italian meatball machine made of everything German? Sounds excellent.

The only thing i can think about when i see this thing is that scene in girls und panzer when it fought the stug

Nice to see that the T-34 dirver's hatch optics are still just as unpenetrable as in the closed beta test.

Little late here, but am I one of the only ones who actually enjoyed that tank destroyer line in the Italian tree? I loved how low profile they were.

I remember i got downtiered (i think) on one game using this tank and i got 9 kills before i died lmao

that drives port on the 75mm armor plate is its own armor plate and is 90mm of armor and that's why it doesn't show on the "super structure" armor

4.3 BR: chuckles* "I'm in danger"

Phly's thumbnail made it look like the su-100y

That magic t34 armor from the opening... even at point blank range you bounce and even when you pen the breach turns yellow.... and still the drivers hatch isn't fixed. But hey let's put it at 3.7

"Our team's so good right now" Kill feed: *PZ IV F2 TEAMKILLS AN ARL WITH ARTILLERY*

that last t-34 was actually so adorable though

2:29 yeah... I feel that

God at 2.3? *Laughs in Swedish APDS*

"the power of this armor" is to make friends ...

As an italian i must say JAGEROOOOO TIGEROOOOOO ITALIANOOOOOO

Watching this Incredible machine I truly wonder why did we lose the war? hmmm🤔🤔🤔

Nice friendship move by that T-34

Never played it but definitely frustrating to play against

The HEAT in this thing is super inconsistent. I prefer the stock round and only use HEAT on certain vehicles or at range.

This is more representative of my everyday experience in Warthunder than any other PhlyDaily vid I've ever seen.

Phly, can I ask you, very nicely, to BRING BACK THE EVERYBODY INTRO? I can guarantee many tears from most of us.

WAIT; u get dowtiers? + always carry some standard HE to punish people for even unlocking the M10

"you need more depression" *delivers return to hangar ticket*

#62 Loving the Unloved: Play the lovechild of a Spitfire and a Mustang. The MB5 that even you hate.

Italian TD have a gun that kinda like musket, you have to shoot it up close to the enemy to actually kill them

Loved the Jojo style intro. Phly has nothing but quality.

Day 170: Play the AR-2 with three 500kg bombs in Ground RB with BT-5, SU-122, ZIS-30 and Chaika... or play it at a higher BR...

War time Italian tanks are underrated, they get a bad reputation for being puny compared to fireflies, tigers and stuff. But they’re honestly really good. (Except you R3, screw you, you little 80s porta potty.)

"Tank DESTORYER" PhlyDaily 2021

It looks like someone tried to build a stug from memory
