How Were Tanks Used in the Spanish Civil War? 

Is this eve online?

lol yerp

800mm machine gun ... i call HAX! 800mm italian "meme handgesture" derp gun it is then.

Easy to understand the Nationalist Victory, they have MG more powerfull than a battleship

Two Gustav in an italian tankette ?

It actually had 2 6.5 mm machine guns...not sure where he hot 800 mm...lol

@@rkitchen1967 I looked it up, the standard ammo is 8mm: the single FIAT mod.14 6.5 mm (0.31 in) machine-gun was later replaced by twin-mount FIAT mod.34s or Breda mod.38s 8 mm.

@@rkitchen1967 - wikipedia says 1x 6.5mm ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L3/33 )

TheOnlyRealGMan looks like the twin 8mm was in the CV-35 (or L3/35), and the Nationalists received a mix of L3/33s and L3/35s.

800mm Machine gun. Isn't that what the Germans were going for with the Karl Gerat superhowitzers?

Dual. Unless they're dueling.

The czar tank like this idea czar tank wants a date of production or after some stuff stalinistic gulag.

@@Akren905 U meant the Tzar bruh?

@@itsalmostfun8567 russian get him lol 🇺🇦 jks but yes a few ways its spelt It seems

That's bigger than a Yamato cannon!!!

lmao hoi4 reference

It's a mandatory obligation for the other fascist nations to Nationalist Spain Same goes to the Republicans but with the Soviets Unless the French decided to join in thnx to the new DLC

@Pep armoured, of course

I tried it, you are right. The Spanish republicans got tore up.

I send 3 😳

That's why I'm subscribed to this channel

That's pretty much it yeah I would say so ;)

@@historywithhilbert146 I gotta say I genuinely like this style, taking few topics, and making multiple videos on them (either you do it on purpose or not). You pretty much always provide content that were not taken care of on youtube, I love it.

@Jason Baird take your pills

Mark Naughton 😂😂😂

A Davis no, p o w e r e d a i r

f RP no?

I know right ;)

*Laughs in Italian quality*

No way

The guns from Super Mario 3.

Oh man that definitely should've been 8 ;)

Need to pierce stalinium some how....

8.00mm machine gun, there fixed it 😀

Italians truly were the most advanced tank designers of their time.

@@meatusbeatus5548 yep. They had the mouse in action years before germany had prototypes of the maus

800mm MG sounds like a Warhammer 40k space weapon

Then there is a bt-5 that goes 65mph pretty dam fast (spoes to be kph)

Still not enough for greece.

also Panzerkampfwagon does not mean tank it means Armored Car.

@@goddessoflesbians1153 it's wagen not wagon

@@goddessoflesbians1153 More accurate would be "Armoured Fighting Vehicle" imho

@@goddessoflesbians1153 im german and it means Panzer = tank, kampf = combat, wagen = vehicle. Its Tank-Combat-Vehicle... so just Tank. Not Armored Car. Panzerkampfwagen 5 was a freakin Panther afterall, which by no standart is an armored car

You can't penetrate stalinium without a gun bigger than ur tank.

You know, as based and redpilled people do

CSelH, i found that funny too. When will Westerners stop glossing over the atrocities commited by communists? Its still part of the mainstream culture to excuse them and glorify their bullshit, im getting pretty sick of it. Fascism and communism were both disgusting (and fascism is simply corporation backed socialism linked with nationalism). Capitalism linked with practically any other political ideology that limits the power of big business is the only decent way for civilizations to exist. Its so sad that alot of English speaking people dont understand this but i guess it shows the poor level of education in the west now.

To be fair a decent portion of purged officers were put in the gulags and eventually reinstated when Stalin realized Germany was kicking his ass

Except that didn't happen? It was just disbanded

Nein

I see what you did there xD

true

From the side tho, not the front

Trure but the PZ1 could also be penetrated by AP rifle rounds

Yeah it was the 0.8metre machine gun bullet from the CV33

God please

I know even less about the small arms than the tanks but probably will have more Spanish Civil War content.

History With Hilbert you should consider looking into the foreign aid from other nations via weapons, money, volunteers etc. Many people supported both sides with the Nationalists having support from Italy, Portugal, Germany and even an Irish volunteer force.

es.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anexo:Armamento_port%C3%A1til_utilizado_durante_la_guerra_civil_espa%C3%B1ola It is in spanish, obviously, but here there are a list of all the weapons used by both armies during the war.

Ignoring the intervention on the republican side.

@@jace5435 I mean, Italy and Germany DID ruin Spain's career by helping a fascist nationalist dictatorship come into power.

@Furry Destroyer He did betray the fascists yet I don't think he was a monarchist either. One his side there were monarchist factions like the Alfonsists and Carlists yet he betrayed them too by making himself dictator instead of handing the power to any of the king candidates. When after his death the power was given to king Juan Carlos it only happened because Franco's preferred candidate to inherit the regime (Carrero Blanco) had been assasinated a few years earlier.

@@TheBlackpanzer1 I find Franco to be an interesting character. He was a strong anti-communist, but he also did not want anything to do with Hitler and his ambitions. Having declared himself a "fascist" and accepted aid from both Mussolini and Hitler, he had placed himself and his nation in a precarious position. They were in danger of being swept up by the Nazi regime and Hitler put quite a bit of pressure on him to allow German troops free access through Spain. But Franco played off Hitler's demands through a series of negotiations and eventually told him no unless certain conditions were met that he knew the Germans either could not or would not agree to. He successfully kept Spain out of WWII without provoking either an Allied or Axis invasion. Love him or hate him, you have to admit, he was a pretty effective politician.

mean whiLe they ignored the vaLkyrie system.shit they are confusing.......by:khriegsss.

Depends on how cheap and nasty the wine is.

@@lunadevass5561 You need around 40% alcohol for flammability. Wine literally can't get that strong without fortification. The sheer alcohol strength kills the yeast at around 15%. You need to distill to get stronger drink. Of course, it could be nasty brandy (distilled wine).

The spaniards invented the modern "Molotov" cocktail. In July of 1831 the lieutenant Manuel José Domínguez used inflammable bombs to sink a smugglers' ship in the coast of Motril (Granada), the name would be Domínguez cocktail. You can read the press release in the newspaper library of La Gaceta de Madrid.

@@paranoidrodent You haven't tried much cheap Spanish plonk, have you? You'd call it "vodka", except you can't taste the potato

@@Thrashgu Strictly, the Finns invented the Molotov Cocktail in the Winter War, although it certainly wasn't the first use of the idea, but they should get credit for the specific name

Glad you enjoyed it!

@ History With Hilbert most of this fictional tanks are just prototype tanks (google: wot tech tree without prototypes)

Imagine having health bars

Sky Boy war thunder gang

@@ahappynigerian imagine repairing a track without leaving the tank in 20 seconds

Historical as unicorns

Really interesting to read - incredible if it is true indeed! Thanks for sharing!

Jorge CP that makes no sense

so your grandpa was a fascist fighting alongside nazis after a coup against an internationally recognized democratic government. bravo! pffff

@@piloul3538 Bear in mind that, as Hilbert has well described elsewhere, those on what we call the fascist side were not *all* fascists! Or even that right wing. If you don't get that, please watch the other videos. Also, 17 year-olds aren't always fully cognisant of the whole story of their current politics, *particularly* during a time of war. They will often (almost always) just follow their parents' or even their friends' lead. My sister's father-in-law (she's British, her husband of 45 years, and still going strong, is German) was Austrian, he was conscripted during the war. Though his politics were right of centre, he wasn't a Nazi and he sure as hell didn't want to fight for them. But given the option of joining up or being shot - and quite possibly having his family suffer as a result - he joined the army. He was also glad to have been captured by the Brits in N Africa because he knew he'd get better treatment than he got from his own officers; and he did. He was in fact delighted that his only son - his only _child_ - married a Brit rather than an Austrian or German. He'd gone to live in Bavaria after WWII with his Sudeten-German-Czech wife who'd been a member of the Czech resistance against both Nazis & Communists and had been tortured for her actions. I hope you now see that judging someone when there is such a chasm of time and space between you and the one you're disrespectful of is not only unnecessary, it is ill-considered and your conclusions, whilst they may _possibly_ be true, are skewed by your own emotions. Do you honestly think that a 17 yr-old, *pre-WWII* and living in a country where, because of the nature of war, was only hearing propaganda, not any sort of truth, can carry some sort of psychic ability to see how things would turn out? If the answer is yes, I suggest you take up another academic interest.

@@falangemexicana8554 Spanish civil war is one of the events in the 20th century where the bad guys won.

No, his pronunciation is pretty weak.

And the panzers just cut through fortified dug in troops in hills and mountrains like it was made of freaking butter. Germany OP.

@@RuiRuichi Not really surprising in HoI4. The German Leichtedivisions have enough Armour and Hardness to more or less disregard Republican militia with no Piercing or Hard Attack worth speaking of. It's not terribly historical, since IRL very few tanks were involved in the entire war (probably less on both sides, during the whole war than you squeeze into those 2 Divs as Germany), but if you want historical accuracy, you don't play an explicitly "what-if" game like HoI4, I suppose

Means not stands

The eagle was a reference from a Isabel of Castile family flag, best monarch Spain ever had

okay that's cursed please remove this comment and here is me thinking the Panzer 1 with the 20mm was cursed

@@Cheezymuffin. heheheh My fave is the one in war thunder that's just a solothurn 20mm rifle strapped inside a cv33

@justin robben that wouldn't have really been between WW1 and WW2 though
