Just a note, Praga doesn't mean lizard (which was the vehicles unofficial nickname), it's just the name of the company that made it. The Czech world for lizard would be 'ještěrka'.

Hello oddbawz:) I just have a few things I need to say.. over the last few years I've watched you develop from a Twitch streamer to at first and awkward RU-vidr with funny accent 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 that has a knack for not only teaching people to get better at a video game but also having a beautiful way to bring joy to countless people by simply doing what you enjoy. And after only two years and some change.. 633 videos over 64 million views(that's right..I counted) we've watched you grow into an amazing Content Creator and someone I can proudly call a friend. Congratulations on 200k. THATS 200,000 SUBSCRIBERS! you absolutely deserve it! And I can't wait!.. until your at one MILLION! Speaking for everyone (if y'all allow me)... WE LOVE YOU DUDE ❤️ Now.. place your favorite oddbawz video below this comment!)...

My first neighbour was officer in Serbian army in Bosnian War, anyway by his words "once a t-55 pulled out on the field to challenge me in praga, i came out and started shooting, first i manage to rip off everything of that cupola and tank gun was constantly moving due to me firing at him" tank retreated. Praga was the most efficient weapon of war in Bosnia. Cheers

OMG...this monster. Never thought this would make it into WT. The most brutal of the old-style, WW2-era AA guns (before radar & advanced optics). Fires a massively bottle-necked 30X210mm cartridge from huge ammo cassettes. The gun itself is derived from the *MK303,* which was an advanced naval flak cannon designed by Germany at the end of the war.

Congrats on hitting 200k!! You've become a staple in my day to day since I first heard about you from Phly. I quickly came to love your content, how you play, edit your video's, your fun personality, it's like layers on a cake. But the best bit, the equivalent of the gooey jam centre of a Victoria Sponge straight from the oven, is your LAUGH. That proper belly laugh that you can't help but laugh along to. Thanks for the entertainment and never change, you're a diamond. *LANG MAY YER LUM REEK*

The Ostwind turret flying into orbit was hilarious.

The hilarity you express when the unbelievable occurs in this game (every game it seems) Is the most fun on RU-vid for me. Comedy without effort. Thank you Odd one!

Germany truly suffered in the making of this video, and seeing you shoot that tallboy out of the sky was amazing, I havent ever tried shooting bombs before they drop and now i might need to try.

30 years ago I used to drive one of them in Balkan wars,not many of us who drove it survived it,it was outdated 30 years prior to nineties Balkan wars

Only took 10 years to get in a video but I did it :wow: Congrats on 200k Dad!

The shells on these cannons are massive. Much larger that the A10 30mm. Like a 30mm magnum.

Praga is the company, the nickname is ještěrka which means lizard

That's an iconic vehicle from the Yugo civil war, so much so that everyone who participated calls any self propelled vehicle with an auto-cannon a Praga.

Praga is company name, it was nicknamed "lizard" (in cz ještěrka) and it was called that because it coud "drop" the guns like lizard drop its tail

Odd: "The only drawbacks of the thing are-" *Proceeds to list every important aspect of a vehicle other than the gun*

Thanks for another video seeing you play really helps with my gameplay iv learnt so much about the game from you and its improved the way i play keep up with the great videos I would love to see a video on the challenger 2 tank

Italy: gets only a milktruck and a box with a glock on wheels Ussr: gets a primitive SRAM with more pen than any british tank

I've almost gotten a nuke in this thing nearly 3 times but the enemy teams just kept leaving too early for it. Absolutely insane vehicle I love it. Even if it goes up in BR it will still be deadly you'll just face faster opponents and IFVs but also less armor as well. I can only see them making the AP belts a 3-1 with HE to maybe somewhat balance it or reduce its pen.

people always argue that Japan can't have a Korean subtree because of the history of hostility, but the Soviet tree gets to have vehicles like this from nations that it invaded and occupied.

Oddz, these sort of videos remind me of the Top Gear budget challenges - (In Clarkson voice) "In this episode, we buy an old czechoslovakian anti-aircraft truck and drive it across Sweden while destroying every enemy tank in our way."

Congratz on the 200k. Really happy for you dude!

Congrats OddBawZ on the 200k, well deserved!

Ey, 200k subs my man! Congratulations 'BawZ! 😃

Yeah the kugel has 77mm pen at 7.0, and this have 91mm at 6.0, either germany suffers or is Just russian bias.

Odd whenever you post I feel like a sand person who just got a pod racer. Keep up amazing videos. Like to see one of the m3 75mm in 5.3 to hunt big cats, it’s rewarding to knock them out.

So your nephew has a skull and a tank as his plushies...? Unusual to say the least. XD

Fun fact Praga was used in Yugoslav civil war in the 90 's and Serbia is modernising it by adding anti air missiles to it and a radar and was used primarily as infantry support vehicle because of it's firepower

I just noticed you hit 200K subs, congrats man.. another nice video..

tank hunting spaa is just calming

Then why the hell, was german 30 mil's pen reduced to 77mm?

Next time, you have to drink at least two frosty Pilsners while playing our Ještěrka, thank u for great vid as always Odd and congrats for 200k subs! Your vids brought me to this game🇨🇿🤝🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

that Lancaster save saved my day

28:52 lmao watch the smoke textures rotate to follow you as you pass over them

what an amazing video man! You are so funny and also showed amazing skills! I love you man!!

Magic just so much fun.

I love this vehicle, my interest in the yugo wars made me love this vehicle

Nice!! Are you going to check out the new chuchill? that platform with an sherman m61 shell to throw at enemies seems right up your alley

Ev en if i am no native english speaker. I just enjoy yyour videos i like your sense of Humor very much. Kepp going dude. And many probs for hitting that 6t chonker

Im so proud to have our Czechoslovak vehicle in war thunder :D

I like how even after playing so long, you still say things like "what was/is that [insert main German tank] thinking?"

Congrats on 200k!

bathtub man survived that machine gun barrage at 9:36 lmao

22:20 THAT'S ME

i5 10400 + 1660 super (on linux, hardcapped at 60fps) 1000 hours in on this rig meanwhile ol' bawz has bricked like 3 PC's in the same time like... how?

Hey Odd, you should try out the M-13UK rockets using the Su-6 and pair it with the BT-7 F-32. Attempt #4

Coungrats on 200k subs

First game after I researched this and had 5 aircraft kills in it I knew that this is gonna be great SPAA haha. Lots of fun spanking tanks as well

You are a true legend!

Hey Odd, love the videos, I've been watching a ton of your backlog recently. I just got into warthunder a few months ago and I've been having a blast with the British tanks. Could you make a video on the Eland? with it's tiny frame and super high pen it's a pretty fun little guy but no one's made a video on it :c

ur gettin me back into this 11 year old game, sick

wonderful video as always. I dont know if its obs or war thunder but I have had some issues myself. I noticed if i had obs stream/record at a smaller resolution and FPS I can keep my game settings up. Not sure why that is though. I wish I knew how to tell when your spotted on the map like you do. I can never tell. LOL

Nice move on delteing that tallboy bomb

Pretty funny how they nerfed Ostwind and Wirbelwind, and 30 Mk103 cannons, but they give 91mm to a OF COURSE Russian SPAA.

Praga doesn't mean lizard, Praga is the company (centered in Praha hence the name) behind the vehicle. Lizard in Czech would be "ještěrka"

The base reload is faster than the BTR with twin 23mm guns

That Lancaster just got blue-balled, hard.

"it has no armor in reality" honestly 9mm would pen it. i think it's balance thing that it cannot be penned easily with 50.cal

Omg lmao! Odd I don't know if you remember someone commented one time they j'ed out bc they thought it was 6.7 and Everyone that had did it all commented our stories lol and you said you've never done it! WELCOME TO THE CLUB! haha 😆

What I love about vehicles like this is, you kill a tank and the player gets salty, they then very often make the mistake of coming back with an aeroplane! 😂

This guy is a machine

Blame teammates, there are teammates further out front than you! Good save from the PE-8 though!🙊🐔🐔😂😂

@28:54 That's some high quality 3d smoke effect

Because Russia really, really needed more op vehicles.

Definitely when he got danger zoned 😂😂

And 5.0 to 6.0 has almost become unplayable due to power creep. Thanks Gaijin.

Greeting Odd. Amazing video. Can you please play the Conway with its new pen of 487mm pen at 7.0?

Bwahaha, you're showing you're age Odd, Tigar Tonk has a limp barrel!

I love that you said I did a @Spookston😂

I was a gunner in the army for 6 months and then a crew commander for 6 months in the Yugoslav army😉 89/90

I don't understand why you have extremely long mag reload in the Chinese mid rank AA but this just needs a few seconds for some big boxes

I think the M53/69 should called the "Death Milk Truck" or "Milk Truck 2"

Solid video, cute baby, and awesome doggo

the 2160k here on YT works and the game still looks good graphics wise 👍 I wonder why these low BR Spaa don't get spotting like the Pantsir and the FLakRad they get spoting for them SPaa tanks.

Love tigor tonk! Looks like balloon Shermans

Coor getting 1080p would be great XD Sad console noises 😂 no wonder why I might as well be blind in a plane

ty Odd

Outnumbered.... A war Thunder Story... by far my fav...

21:46 Glorious!

Got a full up tier in this thing and still got 7 ground kills (and 1 aircraft)

1:38 shittin down aircraft

5:22 in a situation like this it's best to reverse, there for when looking down the gunner sight you keep your driver and co driver behind cover

And the sound is so good. Pom pom pom pom pom.

Can we get some more good USA and French AAs? The British and Russians have gotten very good AAs recently.

Now we just need a Czechoslovakian tree and if you dont think it could be added just talk tothat guy who has been asking gaijin for a Czechoslovakian tree everyday for almost 2 years now XD

I'd take that into top tier like the falcon being it has no radar 😂😂 great light apc's if you could call them that.

"What was that Panther thinking?" Oddo, how long have you been playing WT? German mains don't think, ya derp. :D

That's the mighty war crime milk truck

Every tank in the desert is a hot tub. LOL

Look at Russia getting yet another OP vehicle

Good to see a big bomb getting taken out mid fall.

Russian tech tree got this, British tech tree got the skink... No no there's no bias is there...

This came up on my feed, I’m not a gamer, just a bit of triv reallly? Had one of these fire at my OP in Bosnia in the 90s, across a valley, we saw what looked like tiny sparklers emerge from its barrels….then the shells started landing!🤣 Saw quite a few in ‘95.

“Stop killing my gunner that’s so annoying” he says as he’s driving the most annoying vehicle at its tier

Invisible artillery is in order. IMHO artillery shouldn’t have warning smoke anyway ; it just arrives unannounced. Also, as airfields as so close we should be able to shell those as well.

On the topic of spotting with higher resolutions, I play at 4K and tried out War Thunder on my Steam Deck (800p display) and it was such a whiplash of not being able to see any thing that I never tried again. After playing at 4K I couldn't imagine having to play any lower.

I love this janky piece of Czechnology, but those penetration tables. The 30 degree penetration looks almost identical to the flat 90 degree penetration table the Yugoslav military published...! Curious, Gaijin!

Time to unnerf the kugelblitz back to 6.7

Praga does not translate to lizard, Praga is praga but, the M53/59 Pldvk has nickname in Czechoslovak lands and that is "Ještěrka" which means lizard.

Praga doesn't mean lizard, it's the name of the company that made it. Lizard would be Ještěrka
