@@jameswilkie8321 or as an employee at a company that owns them for similar purposes as the video, engage your brain before engaging your cockholster , you'll seem far more intelligent that way.
My grandma had a workshop in a small south german village. When the tanks passed through they would sometimes come in and use the workshop as it was much better equipped than what the usual field repairs would allow.
@@thisfirstadam9424 for context: Aus Armour has a Panther Ausf. A - this were the later versions built with the HL 230 P30, the earlier Ausf. D were initially built with the smaller HL 210 P30, then switched to the bigger HL 230 P30, the latest versions Ausf. G came also with the HL 230 P30
Tanks have a very low specific ground pressure - this is the sole purpose of the tracks - a human walking over the grass will do more damage than a tank rolling straight over it - what does damage is a tank turning on the spot though
@@macmac8249 you can drive a tank all day over it without much damage to the soil what really destroys the ground is turning or sudden changes in speed, like shifting when the gearbox is a bit mulish but the safest option is just use a hauling vehicle like a tractor to move it on or off the grass
How did they ever lose? Look at that thing. Looks deadly, goes great. That thing speaks primacy. I bet despite all the downbeating, there are still Germans with a fire in their heart. Weren't they the ones who sacked Rome as well?
It was a matter of overwhelming people and resources on the allied side. Just look what it took to defeat Germany. Fact is Germany would have won against any two of the major enemies; all three was a bit much, yet it still took them almost 6 years. We shall never see such people again.
They ran out of fuel in front of Moscow. Not enough fuel to keep all of their planes in the air over Germany. Tremendous losses in manpower in the battle of Moscow. The Allies won the war, with Gasoline.
@@LanceStoddard right yeah that is interesting information. Anyway, that tank looks like it means business, and so did their u-boats. They have a deadly aesthetic. I saw on RU-vid about the rape of German women following their defeat. The firebombing of their factory cities. History has been very tough on them and the Japanese. Read a couple of books written by English amd American POWs who reckon they never had it too bad. I am not German, but that tank is a fine looking machine, and whatever happened, I admire it. Takes determination to stand up from defeat in the first world war, fire up the furnaces of Isengard, and run amok like that. What a beast, and I imagine those that faced these juggernauts felt the fear of God at their approach. I would like to own one for fun and to impress my mates.
there was not top-attack ammunition or ATGMs back in the day - tank battles were fought head to head, so the armor is mainly on the front, this is explicitly explained in the "Pantherfibel"
