Great, now I know exactly how to wind up my Tiger.
Dont break down
3 episodes of inside the tank and he is outside...
How in hell you are going to get a camera crew inside the tank? He's doing a good job explaining the works of the inside from the outside!
@@rickvelocity5578 have you ever heard of inside the Chieftans hatch?
@@rickvelocity5578 Right cause instead of taking 1 camera in the tank they need the entire crew. 🤣🤣🤣 The size of cameras have gotten very small in the last 100 years. You would be surprised. 😂
@@marcopolo2418 See ww2 technology think ww2 technology 😂
@@rickvelocity5578 I mean tbh when I click a video saying "inside the tank" I kind of expect some footage inside the dang tank for crying out loud.
If a tank ain't leaking, you've run out of oil.
We cover seven languages in total.
I love this vid. Showing us procedures that you would not normally see or know about a tank is info I like to learn about.
Kee up the great work!
Here is one thing that probably everyone would like to see
An inside view of the f*cking tank
A major consequence of loose tracks is throwing one off, no track guides in those days. I imagine getting a track off during battle would not be at all desirable.
Long time waited for this!
The best, the beast, the TIGER!
Great series on all the tanks - thank you for sharing with the YT community.
It amazes me the engineering, finishing, and attention to details that went in this tank compared for example to a Soviet T-34. I can understand how expensive resource (machining, welding, metal-work...) and time-wise, a Tiger could be for the already stretched thin German war production. Ciao, L
PS: Can a reader from Bovington Museum tell me why the shields (such as exhaust protectors) were not "restored"? Is it to show this tank with most of its battle scars? Thank you, L
lancelot1953 Yes, all damage that did not affect operation of the tank was left to show it's history of battle. The damage from the shot that was believed to have jammed the turret is amazing!!
***** Yes, this is a "one-in-thousand" lucky shot, the German tank crew thought that they would be torn to pieces and abandoned the tank - wars are filled with really strange minor episodes that had such impact on the battlefield later on.
Peace be with you Turboslag, Ciao, L
Well, I doubt that capturing Tiger really had any impact. To copy anything in it would require a considerable amount of time. For example, how Germans were "copying" Sherman stabilization mechanism, but Germans being Germans, they were researching first in the world proper gun stabilization.
I also doubt the actual cost of this finish. You see, making a tank will always cost majority of resources. Putting it together is most consuming process. Doing it well is only extra on top. Good comparison is with most projects. Lets say you have to present working project to someone. You can do it in three ways. Excellent. Average. Half assed. Funnily enough, half assed method takes up roughly 60% of time to accomplish as proper one. Since regardless of your attitude, you must grasp the essence and to offer sufficiently accurate response. This is similar in tank production. You either can make it properly or half assed and considering how expensive tank is as a combat platform. Making them for few hundred kilometers and then throwing them away is more inefficient than making one properly. Like in this case T-34 and Shermans were just a completely wasted effort the moment they would meet a Panther or Tiger which at the end of the war made up major part of German armor. Heck, even Stugs reportedly were too tough of the nut to crack for these tanks. So, due to their own technological unsophistication, every time then these tanks would meet, all the effort spent in making T-34 and Shermans would go to complete waste, because of their insufficient sophistication. It is like comparing T-34 to Abrams and telling that Abrams tank suck, because we can produce 20 T-34 at the cost of one Abrams!
The fact that he went through all the details of how to service the Tiger tank in a sense made it seem more realistic... ie... maybe one day I'll own one and need to know how to look after it.... (I can only wish)... instead I will just have to make do with the rather large group of Tiger 1's I do actually own.... albeit in 1/35 scale....
THey make it sound like the inertia starter is just like a crank starter on an old fashioned car. It's not. The hand crank spins up a heavy brass flywheel (usually brass anyway, no idea about on tanks, but that's how it is on Luftwaffe aircraft like the Bf 109, etc). Once the flywheel is spinning at a high rate, a clutch is engaged, transferring the built up angular momentum to the crankshaft, and turning the engine over. This allows a person to store up a prolonged exertion over a minute of cranking into a moment of turning the engine over (to be repeated until the engine finally starts), since a person would have a great deal of trouble cranking a Tiger engine directly by hand.
Works pretty well, though. I have seen another video on YowTube that shows them crank up the big cat using the inertial starter. Also one of personel starting up an old Bf-109. I wish someone made those for automobiles.
You also have to check windscreen washer fluid level , empty the ash trays and hoover the carpets .
Dont forget the blinker fluid.
Let us get inside!!! i can't wait for 4th part.
Can't wait for the interior
The schwungmasse (inertia starter) was on the Panzerkampfwagen IV ausferg E (tiger 1) but it did also have an electric starter.
i can't wait for the next part :D
Loving these videos, good job chally
Continental rubber on the wheels - nice!
Brilliant!
buen documental...mejor que los que presenta war of thunder!
I hope the next part will come sooner than this did. -.-
the tiger 1 is my favourite tank till now
Yes mate
Wargaming Europe yes mate
I am thankfull for the content, but the sound volume? Anyone? Who sid the post-pocess?
You should talk about the self propelled guns and tank destoryers
With you now!
yeah and we will have to wait another 3 (?) weeks for next part ehh this tank it too much intresting and iconic to wait for it:P
Q: My Tiger I has proper oil levels but does not leak, should I remove the gaskets?
why does the track tension change? is that based on temperature differences?
+Henry soundso when you drive a tank the metal tracks rub up against each other they just wear out causing slack in the tracks, weather changes are normally not extreem but yes really hot or cold weather can have a effect on the tracks also dirt, ice and mud cause havoc on tank tracks
The "axis" cover????? :D
Lol
+Hilde Venegas Gotta love subtitles ! access !
What does he mean while he says we had to be careful with petrol engines? Are they more dangerous to exploit?
Mein Gott!! An oil leak on german machinery,- somebodys grandchild will be facing a firing squad.
They should see my 72 Super Beetle lol.
@@Imachowderhead, did you ever see a "souped-up" super Beetle? Man, they could do some crazy stuff with a VW!
Wonder if that special tool and the "X" shape in the fuel fillers is intended to deter people from stealing fuel or something? Would be hard (but not impossible) to remove the caps without the tool. I don't see why else they wouldn't just put a handle on the cap itself. Of course the Russians actually have their fuel caps bolted down, so who knows.
so that engine deck, why dont we have that particular deck in the game? pure curiosity here
Show us the interior already!!
Don't tell someone from North America to stick a torch in an opening... unless you want flames
Imagine seeing this coming at you as an infantryman
The Challenger replaced the Chieftan in the British Army. The Challenger 2 is the current design and is really a totally different tank to the Challenger despite visual similarities.
"We just use a measuring stick for fuel.."
How come the depth gauge guy scene from water world is going through my head?
Why is the loading so slow.. takes for evere 2 see the film in hd!
4:48 Petrol? I thought they were diesel??
What sort of mileage to the gallon would that tank do?
I don't know but historical documents indicate it was a notorious gas guzzler because of the very thick armor and its 88mm gun. I laughed when he said they use a dipstick to check the fuel level. I'd do the same. It would be unnerving to see a gas gauge swinging to the E right before my eyes!
It was common practice to use a dipstick back then for fuel. Even in a lot of cars. With a tank you've got pretty steady engine revs, depending on what kind of terrain you're in, but you basically are expected to keep track of the time you've been running and at what RPMs, and you can guestimate pretty well when the fuel is getting low. Basically, the driver knows that with a full tank he has (for example) three hours driving time at highway RPMs, with a half hour reserve. Once 3 hours and 15 minutes has passed, then you have to start worrying about just how much fuel is left. Like an aircraft, you don't mess around with the chance of running out of fuel, so once you've been running long enough that the tanks are sure to be getting down to empty, you pull back to a safer area and refuel, usually something that has been planned in advance based on the time they know the tanks can run (and preferably with stops to top up halfway through, both for the safety margin and because it is a lot faster to fill each tank from half to full than from empty to full...especially when you are filling up from 5 gallon jerrycans, which was pretty normal in the field).
Coupled with the fast fuel consumption, you don't dick around with "I've got a quarter tank of fuel, so I can probably make it another 20 miles". You keep it topped up as much as possible and hopefully your unit has it all arranged so fuel trucks will be up to meet with the tanks in three hours, since you'll all be getting low by then. The dipstick was just when things weren't going smoothly and you either had to make sure you actually had a half tank left or weren't going through the fuel too fast for some reason, or to make sure that you could make it 5 miles back to the refueling trucks. Of course, things didn't always work out, and tanks did sometimes end up running out of fuel or trying to make it to a redezvous with only a small amount of fuel left. But basically, knowing how much fuel you had at any given time wasn't a big problem. You should be able to tell by watching the clock, and the only reason to check was to make sure fuel consumption was normal, or to guess just how long you could get before it ran out of fuel and you were forced to abandon it. Good to be prepared in that eventuality.
I'd say around 2-5 gallons per mile. And that's probably optimistic. An M1 Abrams is something like 8 gallons per mile, but they are very thirsty. An aircraft in WWII could easily burn that much fuel per engine, and a shitload of oil as well. Aircraft engines were rate in "pints of oil per mile", so there was a reason they had oil tanks as well as fuel tanks. Radials were the worst.
Even modern jets burn a fair amount of oil; a jet engine can operate for a very long time if you keep adding fuel, so the ultimate limit to non-stop flying is oil capacity. There was two men who once spent something like 65 days straight flying around in a Cessna 172 for a world record (the things people do to get their names in the books!), and they had to have fuel, food and oil oil sent to them, if I remember correctly, from the back of a pickup truck speeding down the highway. They had it modified so they could top the oil and fuel off while in flight. Quite a story, and quite a testimony to the engineering in a simple old air-cooled piston aircraft engine (can't remember if it was a Lycoming or Continental). But I digress.
it is all fun and games
So you couldn’t push start it ?
No, apparently there was a techy problem with subtitles, which is why it took longer.So apologies.
Challenger
I think it is an "inertia" starter, not "ensurer" starter as the subtitles say...
What would a modern day explosive such as RDX/C4 or something like that, do to a tiger?
+Dixon Liang If you where to drive under it and detonate it would probably be bye bye tiger
Clearly depends upon the amount of explosive, type etc, but if it exploded underneath the tank it might deal quite a bit of damage
I have the Tiger I in World of Tanks Blitz and it is AMAZING this tank is just a beast
I'm waiting for a "Inside the tanks" episode on my favorite tank in game: the soviet T-34 ;)
+Spyronite913 dem i hate the t-34, it's just hard 2 destroy the t-34
XxXxXiluminatiXxXxX Minekush They don't get many HP, but their gun is fine, sure ^^
damn!..why these vids are in random order..
is the challenger the EU version of the chieftan? sorry layman here I dont know things :D
Song name?
at 5:02 look at the m3 lee all panted up
I want one for my wife, to go shopping.
Are the guns still operational? Obviously, it'd be illegal for the museum to use the gun per se, but is it illegal to still have it in full working order?
I am unsure, but I believe that this tiger is the only one which is fully operational, so I assume the guns work aswell. However I am unsure about it.
darklordnorge Yeah its operational. When they captured it, They took it apart, put it back together and fired it. and thats the way it stayed. and in 1951 it got handed to the museum as the way it stood.
Thanks for clarifying it :)
Correct, it is the one and only fully operational tiger left on this planet
+Drifter Knight i believe they used this tank in the movie fury cause it was the only one able to drive and handle the movie demands.
Que jaleo todos los días para hacer todas esas comprobaciones al Tiger
Tiger is the Tiger H, made by henshel and Tiger P is the version made by Porsche, the Tiger everyone knows is the Tiger H, because the P version has never been producted.
The 3rd part and still not INSIDE!
0:11 Kertz!!!! Kertz!!! i know your name is ian but i keep yelling Kertz!!!
Ian didnt want to shake hands.., da faq bro!?
I feel sorry for the poor tank crew trying to hand crank, the engine on an ice cold morning hehe
So how many fkn episodes does it take to get Inside a fkn tank
4:46
Panzer IV with MG34? :O
Grammar Nazi it's pz III. The hatches aren't not on the hull roof
The MG42 was not placed in tanks because the barrel change needs to be done from the side.
co takie krótkie?
.....I meant the Genteman in the video. 'The Challenger' Ok good sir?
>> Rather well aware current MBTs...
Ali Baba & Amazon needs to start selling these!
Yay
It destroy the machine in every sense of the word
The camera work on this is not very good. When you have someone talking about a part or something on the tank, the camera should be pointing AT THAT PART instead of panning away or to some other part of the tank that has nothing to do with what the narrator is saying.
+badweetabix Well I will be very honest here, the reason is simple the poor cameraman spoke no English.
@@WargamingEurope No excuse. There should have been a schedule of items to film. All they had to do was point them out to the cameraman.
finally
looks like they just gave up on catching all the oil commin out of that matilda in the background
hans get the flammenwerfer
I have that tank on world of tanks!
Check and engage
Cool pets aren't they
cool baby
I want his shirt.
3:42 SO MANUALY
Master race
I got troubles with british english :(
I always here 'American v British' comparisons... I finally got one! British interviewers/journalists, let the person recite a story... Americans, know matter who they are, gonna be grabbing that mic trying to be like Kim K... Nah mean, nah mean?!
so the most Feared and Iconic tank of WWII was a windup?? I feel so disillusioned. o_0
M3 lee tank, we one on that!
I saw the M3 Lee in the background
That's the British version, the M3 Grant
in a game called T34 vs Tiger you can see the interior of the Tiger. but it is more of a simulator and there are no human models
That is a lot of checks for 1 tank.
It's the only one in the world in working condition, so they want to be extra careful they don't drive it around when there's a potential problem and end up wearing down parts or having a catastrophic failure.
I guess thats why the Germans lost. Too many checks.
Im surprised they weren’t diesel powered. Certainly makes it more dangerous running gasoline.
You are wrong diesel burns just as well as petrol when hit buy a shell. Plus germany didn't make diesel in its refineries. Also they didn't have ample supplies of aluminium for lightweight diesel engines like the soviets did.
Kim Welstead Kim Welstead diesel engines can have a positive air shut off, gasoline can not. Ive personally seen a few gasoline engines run away and burn up quite quickly in gas rich air. Between than and being a lot easier to start a diesel in -40 degree temperature Id prefer to be sitting in a tank that runs diesel.
Very interesting though, id have figured 1940s germany would have refined kerosene.
it is pretty scary...that L/71 8.8 is very scary when your fighting it in a STOCK M4 :P
ywe3 but tiger never have it.It have kwk 36L56
@@klongthamsae-jane5796 The Tiger 2 had the L71/ 88mm gun.
why they didn't give it back to Germany ?
Because they captured it, if I was a soldier back in the day we will make the tank a souvenir
Why didn't they use a diesel engine ??
They didn't at the time have a suitable high powered diesel and at that point in the war couldn't tool up to mass produce a new design. They did consider it, but it was deemed unfeasible and unnecessary
German engineering for ya
Basically the Tiger is made by a different company and the Tiger P is made by Porsche (hence y it has a P at the end) but the Tiger P plans were to complicated so Hitler decided he want the Tiger :)
engine and armour, tiger p has more frontal armour and a Porsche engine. tiger has less armour and some other engine
It's a Tiger Panzer.. it Tigers antilope tanks..
Basically everything except turret.
Gotta be safe
Inside the tank "me royal arse"!
WhatsamattaU... no wide angle lens?
I work on Mercedes, Porsches, and BMWs for a living, I can attest to German vehicles prone to leaking.
Go inside the Tank! Puullleeeezz 😭😭😭 An just say there is thick rubber seals on all hatches instead of saying it for every single hatch.
...
i play the game because of this tank, but it was kinda disappointing it kept hammered to bits by all tank that developed after the world which means it was outdated , well in real life it was fighting something weaker than him in the game it has to be fair and balance the gameplay so it won't be overpowered.
Kraftsman Sheng When I got thw Tiger 1 on world of tanks I was incredibly dissapointed by the armor. But the top gun is fantastic
Samuel Raybould the gameplay had to be balanced, it wouldn't be fair if it against tier 5 or 6 all the time, in real life it was quickly outdated by other fighting nation, no nation willing to send their men to die in vain, they have to constantly upgrade their tank so did the german there was the tiger 2 and by that time we fight against IS 3
Kraftsman Sheng yeah fair enough
Is3 came too late for ww2
Tiger was not outaded even when it was passed out of production. Furthermore, USSR super armor might had looked scary on paper, but it was a technical disaster worse than early Panthers. All IS-3 were pulled out of service the moment they rolled through victory parade and were reconstructed and redesigned. IS-3/4 are not 1946 tanks, but 1947 at very best. 1945-5 warfare would be a minor German increase in technical capabilities, but push towards standartization with its E series all across the board. Allies would had continued to use their Shermans and they would finally start utilizing 76 mm and 17 pounder guns. 90 mm on USA heavy tanks would come at that period's end and would contest tanks as E-50/75. British would still be stuck without decent armor at this point, but they would slowly start testing Centurion prototypes which are one of the best tanks of that era. Soviets would had introduced excellent T-44 which while not carrying more firepower, would be very well armored for its size.
