The Saint Chamond is definitely a cool design. I'm personally a big fan of ww1 and intere war period tank designs they're just so strange
I love that early tanks were actually called "landships". Very steampunk-sounding!
Tanks, WWI and a 40k reference: you Sir have earned a like
damn, thought this channel had at least 300-400k subs- the production quality is great.
Jean Baptiste Eugéne Estienne, the guy mentioned as the Father of French tanks, is known to some to be displeased with the first Saint Chamond he saw. Not only did he instantly realize the front heavy design was a massive flaw, but the model in front of him had 6mm of armor, which for non metrics is less than a quarter of an inch. He tested the tank with his sidearm, which in ww1, would likely have been an 8x27mm, and found that the bullet went straight through. he then commented that he would rather use his office papers.
Thank you so much for this good video, I love your style
We don't "hate the british", only the english. And nowadays only when rugby or football is involved. But yeah, things have to be pretty bad for our ancestors to prefer an "english" design over a french one.
You made me recall my great-grandPa rants abouts the unreliability of those tanks. He saw human torches running out of those. He was in the "Chemin des Dames" offensive.
Il y avait des Saintchamond au chemin des dames ???
Great video, thanks a bunch, will be using some of the information here in my final university paper. (Referenced of course) so you've done me a massive favour
this was great. realy like your style.
We need the mendeleev tank next, nice job with the st chamond explanation
I was thinking about doing a video on ww1 super heavies because I think that they are some of the wackiest designs out there. Also Thank You!
they shouldve just built it taller instead of longer. fun fact, the last st chamond survived because it was given to the usa at the end of ww1 and was displayed for many years at the us army proving grounds at aberdene. the usa then gave it and a schneider back to france, in the 90s i think.
I don't get how this channel doesn't have 1 million subs
Great video
Now I know what have AAVP-7A1 constructors inspired of
WW1 tanks are so much cooler than any other tanks in history. They’re just so weird looking, they look like giant toys.
pls do analysis of the tanks of the 40k universe
Gotta start _somewhere._
I enjoyed your research.
I should warn you tho, that if you keep altering your voice like that, you might get polyps, and that could really harm your ability to make videos. A voice more like your normal speaking voice might be safer, or maybe you could talk to a voice coach about how to get the voice you want without damaging your vocal cords.
Raciste video.
This Channel definitely deserves more love. I wish you the best of success in the future and hopefully you continue making such awesome videos 👍
Never forget. The Emperor protects!
