6:38 Accurate simulation of what would happen if this tank tried to cross a bridge

Well, it's about time I took a break from Aeroplanes

Modern engine and modern gun and Object 279 would actually be pretty dangerous today. But not being able to safely cross bridges or wrecking them if it did, is a definitely drawback. Also, if someone told me this was totally fictional from some video game, I would not be able to question it.

Woah woah a tank video! Its a TONK

One note to your video. In the beginning you state that the prototype was cancelled and scrapped. But one prototype of the Object 279 should be on display at Kubinka tank museum in Russia if I remember correctly.

War Thunder overpressure mechanics: "Bonjour"

The Soviets really know how to make their names interesting

I didn’t realize this was considered an aviation only channel. I just thought you did a lot of episodes on planes. I would be interested in any fascinating would-have-been tech information. Planes, trains, automobiles, tanks, boats, weapons, gadgets-gimme gimme. :-)

I am all for these types of videos! Keep branching out, while also staying on topic!

This tank is impenetrable from every angle but the rear of the hull and the side and rear of the turret, fantastic design.

It’s great that you starts to expand your topic variety. I recommend in a future video, you should also show gun caliber and armor thickness in both inches and millimeters as the military plebs mainly use millimeters. Nevertheless, keep on with the great work!

Wow I didn't even know something like that exists.

Inner tracks on quad track tanks have a huge downside, they are nearly impossible to field fix making a sitting duck if the inner treads break

@ChessMasterNate

2 жыл бұрын

Not necessarily. That track can just be cut and abandoned...which is something you can't do with any other tank. Or after it rolls off the track, the track can be repaired and fed back on. This should be easier to fix, not harder. It is conceivable, with all those additional parts, it could be more prone to problems. If it fails in the swamp, that was always going to be a problem. And speaking of that problem, they would have needed one heck of an all-terrain crane to get these out. That and the bridge issue would probably be sufficient to reject the tank. Dually tracks have been done, Bagger 288, and NASA's crawler-transporters have them. I liked this tank ever since the first time I saw a picture of it, maybe 15 years ago. I think they could have worked on making it lighter and faster. Improved the strength of the metal with alloys and got it down to say 45 tons. I do wonder if they made it so the inner tracks can move at a different speed than the outside tracks. If they didn't, it will be prone to track damage when turning. That would be one more reason to kill it, if true.

Another great video!

I've seen a recent video from last month where they're trying to restore the prototype to a functional state, engine sounded relatively healthy considering, and it was driven a short distance

It's almost like this tank was.....cursed by design!....ba-dum-chhhh!

Um no. If you go to Kubinka (the Russian equivalent of Aberdeen Proving Grounds) you can see their development museum. All of the vehicles are given the name Object XXX, such as Object 279. This particular vehicle, Object 279, was designed to fight in the Pripyat Marshes, a large expanse of swampy terrain on the Russian Western border. The hull has a large expanse of voids between its sheet metal hull and armored hull underneath. The voids and the extra tracks gave it greater mobility in swampy terrain. The real reason it was canceled was it made no sense to spend a lot of money for vehicles that were only useful in a limited area. In Kubinka they refer to it as the Swamp Tank. Besides which, when it was designed at a time when the Soviets had their T-55 main battle tanks and T-10Ms as heavy tanks (which were over 52 tons) for fighting other tanks.

Excellent stuff bro

Great video, just the right length and level of explanation for me to understand. Nice pictures and illustrations, this would be excellent for history class.

"Anything can be an aircraft if it's in the sweet spot where nuclear weapons will toss it without vaporizing it." F&S "This tank is nuke proof." "FINE! I'll get in a giant missile launching screw tank with a hovercraft trailer and make it fly manually." And thus the Shagohod was born.

OK, it's a tank video, but u still FIRED it out of the park!

Your videos helped expand my knowledge and interest in the cold war, its a very strange time, unique specialized designs, strange stories of insane events that maybe never happened. A bunch of secret stuff that we can finally look into since its well, not secret anymore, but yeah, truly a tense time of human history

Love the video. Love to learn about Soviet armored vehicles!

I love how you very clearly used Warthunder's model of the tank in the video

I like planes. And tanks. And trains and all other mechanical things. Nice video!!

Survives nuke blast. Runs out of fuel. Is towed by farmer.

I read somewhere that the inner tracks were impossible to repair in combat and even out of combat without a repair facility. I also read that even facilities that housed T-10s (IS-8s) would of had difficulties dealing with the 279

do more of these please:)

Definitely not an aircraft, but a fascinating foray into a type of land vehicle that one would expect to see only in movies. (I'm also thinking it's odd to pick a shape that would help defend against one or two nuclear blast waves but that would almost certainly channel possibly dozens or more incoming anti-tank weapons directly into the treads & fuel reservoirs...)

The Brits tested an Ausralian Centurian tank during a nuclear test at woomera. Not only did it survive, it went on to fight in Vietnam.
