I felt the early war wizards looked at it like calvery. You can send calvery out against foot soldiers and probably crush them, but then your calvery gets wiped out by archers and reserves. If you send your calvery around the flanks and take out their archers and reserves, now your foot soldiers stand a chance, and the enemy is now surrounded. Add bullets bombs and engines and you got blitzkreig.

@recoil53 Год назад

IIRC, between wars there was some debate of how to use tanks. One was as a mobile pill box supporting infantry. That's what the Char B was designed for. This also means it was used in combined arms. The other was cavalry, co-ordinated with radio. Horse cavalry, btw, gets stopped with spear/pike men that have discipline. Unless the formations are broken. But light cavalry is great for operational/deep warfare.

@scottgalbraith7461 Год назад

@@recoil53 pikemen represented by fortified AT emplacements. I considered the comparison this way; the reason tanks and horsemen are effective is their ability to approach opposition at high speed, giving them position before many arrows or bullets can disable them. Using it as a blunt object is folly. Panzer I was built as an armored machine gun crew, nothing more. In that sense, it was successful, no matter how ridiculous it looks on paper now.

@lahire4943 Год назад

The French did not deploy their tanks evenly across the frontline. At the beginning of the war the French had three powerful DLMs (Light Mechanical Divisions) and four DCRs (Divisions cuirassées, Armored Divisions). All three DLMs were sent to Belgium and the 2nd and 3rd were concentrated to fight two German Panzer divisions at Hannut and Gembloux, to great effect. The 1st DCR fought against two German panzer divisions at Flavion in a brutal tank battle. 2nd and 4th DCRs fought at Abbeville, and they were merged into the 1st groupement cuirassé, as the 3rd DCR formed the 2nd groupement cuirassé with the 7th DLM. That's not exactly what I call spreading the tanks across the frontline. On the contrary they were often concentrated to fight tank battles against the Panzerdivisions, which took heavy losses every time. There are other reasons why the campaign was lost.

@mrsupremegascon Год назад

This channel is known for it's huge amount of inaccuracies. No wonder, their view rate is shrinking. For reasons why the campaign was lost : - Germany outsmarted France, there is no other way to put it, they set up a good trap and the allies fallen in. Unlike Russia, France doesn't have the luxury to retreat thousand of km and reform their army when German supply line are exhausted. One mistake, and it was over for France. - Lack of airplanes - France used it's reserve too early

@goji3908 Год назад

The French army DID use these tank divisions to great effect, however it was only after the successful German invasion of Poland that France would start making these divisions. MOST of the French tanks were supporting their infantry. (It is weird why he didn't mention it though)

This channel should challenge preconceived ideas on the subject rather than spreading them. I'm glad they tried to do it on the myth of the Blitzkrieg, but they are never going to do so on the numerous myths about the French in 1940. Cf the quote of the British general at 2:08 suggesting French treachury and the French running at 10:15 suggesting French cowardice. I think their video "Why was France so bad in 1940" (unbearable kind of title btw) with 3 million views remain unequalled in terms of inaccuracies.

if you use the warthunder link rent the STUH-42G it can destroy vehicles that are battle rating 5.3 (and sometimes higher) even though its battle rating is 3.0

The destination of the Battlecruisers/Battleships Scharnhorst and Gneisenau weren’t deployed to Oslo but to Narvik and Trondheim. Blücher and others were the ones that were deployed to Oslo.

The Ark Royal was nearly sunk during the Hunt for the Bismarck, U-556 was sent to do recon on the situation before returning home and was low on fuel and out o f torpedoes from commerce raiding. The sub would have had a clean shot while the Ark Royal was preparing to receive and re-arm her planes

Norway conjures to mind images of fjords and rugged craggy cliffs. I know that it's not like that literally everywhere in Norway, but it's what comes to mind. That doesn't sound like great terrain for major tank offenses lol. Thank you for another excellent video! God be with you out there everybody. ✝️ :)
