I have heard 126mm pak for artillery, anti-tank, and tank destroyer but not a 150mm pak for any vehicle or machine that had a V-auto loader six to four rounds. If the barrel of the diameter is bigger than 150 mm it is not called a pak for ground targets nor flak for sky targets it would be a like the sturmtiger or somthing else in german with a big gun on a tank design to destoyer heavy targets like bunke, navel ships, and light targets with a high explosive.

Great selection of music! Matches perfectly with the visual Drama of the pictures! To whose is that Music used in the video?

i think the Ardelt-Krupp design was the best possible design, as it is essentially a self propelled flatbed with a standard 88 on a field mount. i think the Pz.IV Waffentrager could be a both cost and combat effective use for the remaining Pz.IV hulls after it was discontinued.

So much ww2 innovation ideas comes into my mind but this is always the answer (that you also said in the end) We can't do much bcz history is already written. So TRUE

Just as a sid note : The British used a similar contraption in WW I, with great success. A Mark IV tank, with an open platform between the running gears, that carried a howitzer and or ammunition, thru areas under fire. It was also possible and practiced, to fire the gun from the vehicle. Might be the Krauts picked something up there.

The best reference book for this subject is Special Panzer Variants by Walter J Spielberg's and Hilary L Doyle.

I've been playing this tank in World of Tanks for 9 years. It's by far my favorite tank. You have to be very careful as it has no armor. But, the gun is a true sniper. 300 yard shots are nothing for it. I never knew it was a paper tank till now.

The Krupp team were Rockstar namers! First one, Krupp 1; second one, Krupp 2... It brings a tear to my inspired eye...

some crazy ideas, some good but if the ruling lunatic didn't like ever the best weapon it didn't get used unless the generals risked his rath. one part of the defeat

Ngl, the Waffentractors were a smart idea Light with full turret rotation and a big boom

I can't figure out why it was considered that stationary artillery delivered by tracked vehicles is a better tactical asset than mobile artillery mounted permanently on a tracked base.

they were not dismounted fron the hull

reminds me of some of the late war japanese tank projects, especially the 75mm Type 4 AA (which eventually became a semi-autoloaded AT with the designation type 5 75mm). The type 5 guns would've found their way into late war japanese tanks such as the chi-to & chi-ri had it's prototype been completed. I would like to see an overview of it at some point, as while the stationary AT gun would've featured an autoloaded, it's unknown whether it would've made it into the chi-ri, and it didn't make it into the chi-to for sure. Those late war tanks had the ability to become some of the only well designed japanese tanks.

Leichter Einheitswaffenträger has 2 meanings as Einheit can mean either "unit" or "unity" and the unity sense meaning one of "standard fit" basccally a base upon which you can mount different pieces of equipment, which all have a standardised way of connecting to the mount.

I might get to see the first tank at Sill, I’m going there for BCT AIT in June

Strictly speaking, Panzerjäger I, Marder II, Marder III and Bison would be the first Waffenträger. They are the same concept, except in name. Still your video is really great and I enjoyed the research you presented. Keep it up.

What is extraordinary is that the Panzer truppen already had the basis for successful heavy self-propelled guns of the heavier calibre in the Dicker Max and the Sturer Emil. Had the Sturer Emil been redesigned with an armoured casemate around the gun it would have still been light enough to be mobile. The jagdpanther was a perfect TD mounting the 88 Pak 43 L71, with the Panther and Pz Iv carrying the highly effective 75mm Pak 40. The entire tiger serious was superfluous and a waste of resources. Had the Germans standardised their tank force down to just two-three chassis and wheel configurations, then production would have soared, and maintenance far easier. The Russians Basically used the T-34 and KV designs for all their later medium and heavy tank and assault gun designs, making it far easier to find spare parts. The problem for the German designers was they just didn't know when to stop experimenting to find the perfect design and kept building bigger and heavier vehicles with ridiculous armour protection. So many were lost to break downs and minor damage that it was a travesty to see a fresh King tiger with a broken track simply abandoned because of a track problem.

I am amazed that no one said anything about the Bob Semple and "failed" being displyed at the same time

The machining tools to make these gorgeous creations are just... Chef's kiss.

I actually really enjoyed the video cone, here have some non consentual premarital headpats 😳

I always like the railroad car that has twin 128mm autoloader cannons. I've seen photos but don't know the location where it is. I wouldnt doubt at all that some German engineer wasn't trying to envisage a tracked vehicle that could mount a single or twin Barrell 128mm autoloader. The railcar example was on a rotating platform like a turret

Just incase anyone needs subtitles on this beast of a name: "105 milimeter leichte feldhaubitze 18/1 L'28 auf waffenträger wagon 4B" - The only tank that needs a breath and a drink of water to get through.

Yes, the cricket is the GW Panther or Waffen Gestell auf Panther Chassis

every single time i see a waffentrager e100 in WOT i just trun around and join another flank cuz i am not dying in the first few second's

This is why I subscribed.

you should do the Sherman VC firefly. The Guns too big? put it in sideways, Radio wont fit? Cut a hole in the back and have it stick out the back, Engines no good? Take 5 Car engines and put em together!

Rheinmetall was the definition of "but wait, there's more!"

Just as you made this video, Wargaming is doing an event about a Super WT E 100 that is even more scary and rediculous
