A WW2 PANTHER WITH NIGHT VISION - Ep.2 - Panther II in War Thunder

Germany's Rarest Tanks in War Thunder are usually exclusive vehicles that are Premium, Event Vehicles, Tanks that were removed due to historical inaccuracies, Tanks that were removed for balance reasons or Tanks that are just so expensive no one in their right mind should buy one!
So, in this series... I'm going to play EVERY single one of them. From the super heavy Maus and E-100 to the double barrel SPAA Flakpanzer 341.
For the second episode we're going to be playing the Panther II. The Panther 2 in War Thunder was removed due to historical inaccuracies. As in, this vehicle did not exist at all in this configuration. It's a real Panther II hull that's been fitted with a completely fictional turret that houses the same 88mm cannon that the Tiger II has.
The Panther II is actually a great vehicle and it's pretty disappointing that it's completely inaccessible to the newer generation of players.
Let's see how the old top tier stacks up against the new kids on the block! :)

It's not nation "main" players that are the problem, it's nation allegiant players. The guy who has played every nation at a BR but mostly plays one? Usually a good player. The guy who literally only has one nation's vehicles researched and left everything else at reserve? Almost always utter dogshit.

17:56 the thing about the Panther II is that the NVG for the driver gets in the way, you usually have to angle your tank and expose your side to get a bit of extra depression other than that the Panther II is an all around jack of trades, It's really easy for me to keep up with even bulldogs which makes early game positioning real fun, I'm glad I got it when I did

Wish you could remove it in the modifications..
At the br the panther2 is at it's not just unlikely to get a night battle, it's flat out impossible since they restricted night battles to 10+ br. That effectively makes every nvd research on tanks below 9.3 useless since by that point you're already getting thermals. IMO the change to making night battles optional was a good thing, restricting it to such a high br, was not.
@pauld6967

Gaijin restricted the night battles to br 10+ ???? I thought any NVG-equiped vehicle regardless of br, had the night battle checkbox available. Well, if that's the case, nothing stops me from adding into my br 10 lineup.

@@ThreeEyedFish Totally! Night battles I actually adore since they're so rare already. Sure at 6.0 it's pain, but since I only got them like once every few days or so, it wasn't a problem at all. Meanwhile once you hit around 9.3 it's wonderful at night.
may be off topic, but I really enjoy when you scan the match in real time and express your thought process, its amazing to watch such an experienced player give voice to his thoughts!
Hope you and Phly are okay, hoping Gaijin didn’t kidnap you two.

26:18 it's quite interesting that as you become more experienced, rangefinders become less useful/important. Sure getting an accurate range reading can be nice but map knowledge can allow you to eyeball more and more shots, saving you the time it takes with mechanical RFs and avoiding pinging LWS at top tier. On top of that, higher velocity rounds are easier to aim and with some top tier APFSDS, you hardly need to adjust at all until 1km.
I really like the way it felt using it in the tutorial and i would love to see it come back
when I was stationed at then Fort Benning GA I was able to see the Panther II hull with a standard panther turret its pretty cool
Love the vidoes, love the shows, I have learnt a lot from watching your videos, Prof OddBawz. This current series is very interesting and fun to watch, Maybe you could do the same, but for other countries, Like Japan for example, they have the Tiger as well, even though they never actually got to use it in active combat, except against Godzilla.
You know its a good day when Odd uploads :D
The Panther II was the first tank I aced. I've always referred to it as "A comfortable old shoe" when trying to describe how it feels.
Nuts! I can only have one OddBawZ subscription at a time!
Get well, Odd! Take all the time you need. Cheers!
Fighting these guys is like fighting a serpent, when ones down always comes another haha
Oh and by the way I love your vids I love to play war thunder while I watch your videos it's my favorite thing to do

Take your time getting better odd. Best vids you’ve made are the ones when you’re in good moods and health
I don't know if anyone mentioned it but the Panther II hull has a Panther G turret on it, not a F. Panther F hulls were in assembly in the tank plant in Berlin but the turrets hadn't been, to my knowledge, in mass production nor delivered. I have actually been on and in that Panther II. Quite a few years ago when Ft Knox was trying to make it a runner. I have been in the T28 they found out in the field as well, while it was at Ft Knox. The latter was very roomy because the ammunition racks had been removed. Roughly the interior size of a M88A1 ARV.
Lovin the series :)
There was actually plans to have the 88 mount on a panther schmallturm however gaijin pulled a lazy one and reused the panther F turret, while the schmallturm with the 88 had a larger “bulb” behind the mantlet.
I seriously hope oddbawz is ok Is anyone on his discord to see if hes ok????
I hope you are well Odd, i miss your videos a lot but take your time if thats what you need :)
since no one else seems to have noticed, I thought I'd let you know that with the introduction of the alpha strike update the Leclerc has received a 1 second reduction in its reload, with it being 5 now its closer but still not at the historical 4 second reload the Leclerc has in real life. but at least its an improvement
noticed you haven't uploaded in a while odd, hope you are okay
So glad I got this just before it was removed
Its much more interesting when you have good teammates, you sound less stressed! 😆
I understand gaijin wants to make war thunder realistic but a bit of unrealistic fun is always good. Sad they removed it. Also, semi imaginary tank❌ body pillows✔
This guy has some amazing skills for carrying more than 30 shells! If I carry 1 extra shell out of zero in my ammo rack, I get sniped from across the map in that one exact shell.. 😌😮💨The math doesn't math. love the channel!🤘

I have played mine in a while. I should enable night battles and take it out for a spin. Give the IR system some exercise.
AMAZING.
Panther II... I want it back so much
The turret the USA put on the Panther 2 hull was from a Panther G, not an F. However it was never functional and was done for museum purposes, not for testing. The actual turret the Panther 2 was supposed to have can be found in World of Tanks as the stock non-upgraded turret. It retains the standard 75mm KwK42 with muzzle brake. It would be a great 6.3 or even 6.7 medium tank.
You are correct OddBawZ. I believe all the good 7.3 French vehicles are now 7.7 or 8.0..
How to know it's OddBawZ: In this video...
damn that first game was a huge upset for the enemy team, they blew a gigantic lead.
