Fun fact: The reason Russian tanks have the log is because it was used to help them get out of mud and bad terrain. As I understand it, the log would be chained to the front of the tracks when stuck, and when the tracks were moved, the log would be pulled under the tank, giving it a sort of hard ground to drive on. It was fairly effective and very cheap, so it became standard on heavier Soviet vehicles where recovery was more difficult.
So basically yes, it's a spoiler, in that it's also supposed to increase traction, but it's tailored for use on Russian roads where traction problems may be not what you'd expect...
No dude the American tanks had really shitty armor all around because they were made so cheaply to be able to mass produce like you can make 15 Abrams from ww2 for right around the same for 1 tiger tank the logs could have some use for that in the mud but ultimately it was to add extra protection to the sides from lighter rounds being fired
"sir, do you know why I stopped you today?" "I can only guess. if it's about the tank I can assure you this is a legally prescribed emotional support M1A1 Abrams."
It does have a really formidable gun, if you bring HEAT in it you can easily frontally pen (and often one shot) any WW2 design and quite a few post war designs, the downsides are huge, no armour, no roof, slow, only 18 gigantic easy to hit rounds and a reload time only a KV-2 could be jealous of

The log on the back of Russian tanks is actually a standard issue, yes, official standard issue, undiching device. If the tank gets stuck, the crew gets out, chains the log to both tracks on the ground side, then drives. The log apparently usually gave the tank enough extra traction to escape even deep mud. So yes. At one point, logs were standard issue Russian tanker gear.

@@felinecube4953 I definetly remember reading about about and seeing photos of British WWI rhomboid tanks that they had basically a huge railway sleeper on top, so in case the tank bogs, its crew would chain this sleeper to the treads to give them an increase in surface area.

Logs are for unsticking tanks that are bogged in the mud. You chain them tothe treads and it applies an irregular force on the mud and allows the tanktoclimb out. Even modern tabks such as the T-72/80s use them just in case. Just thought i would post this. great video lol

Whad'ya mean "nope"? Do you not know how heat rounds work? Or do you mean that's not how it's used in game? I know that's not their purpose in the game, but it's still possible to use it as extra armor.
Logs were careid around for the purpose of being used when the tank got stuck. Nobody really saw them as extra armor and the *could* work that way only with heat rounds
Fun Fact 2, The reason the Russian school bus looks like a... School bus... Is because of how they had to house the engine. Whereas every other heli in game used a Turbine (or multiple) to create power, in the nose of the Bus is a russian radial engine; exactly like the ones in thier fighter planes/bombers. The engine, being much taller and wider but shorter in length than the turbines nesscitated a tall, wide, but stubby design. You can actually see the intakes and exhaust for it on the top of the nose.
Shervinator101 N the logs are used for if tanks were to be bogged down. Like if you have a car bogged and you use something to give it grip. Same thing

Y'know, just how the US used millions to develope a pen that would work in space - and the USSR's been using pencils? Thats the way the story went, right?

the logs are for if the tank gets bogged thy put it under the tracks so they have solid ground to drive on cause they are to lazy to manufacture something better
6:57 which is kinda weird when you think about it because the hind d should easily be one of the fasted chopper in the game considering its faster than the ah64 Apache
2 years probably too late, but if anyone wants to know what the log on russian tanks is for, it is for getting your tank unstuck from a mud hole or when you high-center yourself on a rock / stump. you chain the log to the treads, and slowly roll them one way or the other. the log then pushes against whatever has you stuck, and pushes you away from it.
@@freebrams6732 it would be nice if all their marketing reflected the insane grind of their game, instead of sponsoring videos like this that imply anyone can get a tank/heli and use it without spending money

17:55 when a tank gets stuck in mud, the people would climb out of the cockpit and unroll that, and it would then go down under the tracks, allowing for more traction

Just like the Americans in both world wars, I was *slightly late* to this video
Edit: Wasn’t expecting all the likes damn 😂
F TW fucking cooked
A little late? *cough* *cough* you were only in ww1 for a year selfish pricks
damn son
@@huntermactavish54 meh better late than never.
Why join a war you never started? Better to sell shit.
Just so u know the log on the back of the russian tanks actually count as armor in warthunder
Y'know, just how the US used millions to develope a pen that would work in space - and the USSR's been using pencils? Thats the way the story went, right?
@@1DarkCrusaderCA1 it is true actually that the americans spent a crap ton of money on developing an ink pen that works in space
NASA/the Fisher Pen Company developed that space pen because pencil shavings/loose graphite could get into sensitive equipment and potentially damage them.
Germans tanks just slap 200mm of armer russians just use soviet troops or just logs or secret weapon stalinum
And it's thick af
I like how at 10:52 they act like badgers not driving a rank 2 tank destroyer that’s technically used for shooting down planes
the logs are for if the tank gets bogged thy put it under the tracks so they have solid ground to drive on
cause they are to lazy to manufacture something better
Sometimes you just can't improve on nature XD
why manufacture something expensive if you can just take the next tree and have the same result ?
On one of the new Soviet tanks (BMP2?) the log at the back counts as 150mm armour IIRC...
Oh, the memes.
but it works!
Lazy bastards, they should just leave the tank in the sand/snow/mud until civilian contractors from Halliburton come to get it out...
The Russian Tactical Log is a thing. They are used to take tanks out of mud ditches. They are a legitimate part of the equipment issued to tank crews.
6:57 which is kinda weird when you think about it because the hind d should easily be one of the fasted chopper in the game considering its faster than the ah64 Apache
2 years probably too late, but if anyone wants to know what the log on russian tanks is for, it is for getting your tank unstuck from a mud hole or when you high-center yourself on a rock / stump. you chain the log to the treads, and slowly roll them one way or the other. the log then pushes against whatever has you stuck, and pushes you away from it.
When you find out how big of a grind war of thunder is💀💀💀
its a gaijin game all they know is a grind fest of a game
@Lord Morgan Freeman VI yes, or people could realize that they have to make money since it’s a free game
@@freebrams6732 it would be nice if all their marketing reflected the insane grind of their game, instead of sponsoring videos like this that imply anyone can get a tank/heli and use it without spending money
5 years of casual after-work playing and I've only got one top tier - the Imperatritsa Mariya, Russian battleship
0:00 i started a GoFundMe page for a harrier jump jet, fuel, and ammo. Government tyranny is a prevalent threat that needs to be prepared for
Started a gofundme page for one B52 Stratofortress , 100t of napalm and 100000L of fuel.
We're back in 'nam baby GET THOSE FIRES STARTED!
@@operatorlynxyta strataforce and you're not going for a Fat Man
17:53 I think that the log on the back of the Russian tanks is there in case if the tank get a stuck in mud, and they use the log as a foot hold for the tracks so it can get out
18:28 guess what, wind of change happened in april
*finally kills that tank that has been destroying their forces*
Ladies and gentlemen......
We got em
HANZ....VERGERATEN SIE LUGER
Then they go into a tier 3 tank and somehow still wreck your shit (Looking at you, Panzerkampfvagen I.V)
I actually saw the blue angels and the most annoying part about it was before every flyby the commentator would stop the music and say exactly what they were going to do, and they played a different song after they stopped the music every fucking time
Free FPE and Parts=Medicinal M1 Abrahams

I should probably mention that nearly 4 years after this video was posted, The Warthog was finally added to War Thunder
'Getting started'
We played helicopters!
'Getting started for real though'
Hope you like shitty world war 1 tanks.
There are two ways to start, gain a sponsorship account from the developers with everything unlocked and be a shit ( these guys are exceptions ), or start from the bottom of the pit and be a master when you get to the helis and jets.
There's no actual WW1 tanks. It's interwar tanks up to modern.
Tier 1: I hope you like shitty peashooters
Tier 3: I hope you like being fucking vaporized from the other side of the map by an aimbotting 10-year-old in a fuckhuge cannon he bought with mom's credit card
@@ootdega But WT is made so using aimbot is basically impossible
1:26 this is as much DEATH as we could fit in a casing
Badger: Sorry im new so cut me some slack
Also Badger: Snipes a heli with an m1 Abrams
Gov: "You need to get rid of that"
Badger: "I only use this GAU-8 Avenger medicinally"

@Wesley Maxfield IT AIN'T ME!!!

The logs on the back were used to get over trenches in a war so it wasn’t as difficult to break the enemy lines
american, "uses 900mm pen rockets*
Russians, *ADDS MORE STALINIUM!*
*slaps more logs on the tank*
"If we keep throwing people at the bullets, they will run out of bullets" Well it worked in WW2.
Charlie don't surf.
But you think he should
YEEEEEEEEET
Fun fact: the state of Idaho had a huge wolf problem so they said kill them all allowing the Usage of cars, planes, helicopters, I'm pretty sure C4 was aloud to but don't quote me on that.
The said they would give you a cash prize for every wolf head you turn in.
@2:00 They are also playable in a special Arcade or Realistic flight event.

14:47 with ms frizzle UNFUCKINGLIKELY
Badger: "This new update, Helicopters"
Me: "what's hell of copters?"
Hey if only normal players could get to modern jets and tanks and helicopters... Gaijin keeps advertising modern vehicles and not even 15% of their players are even close to getting up to this shit.
i got my german jets and high tier tanks with prem
without* sorry
thomas smith part of the less than 15% congrats 😂
This.
I would say easily less than 10%. I have been playing since 2012 and the only top tier vehicles that I have are an F2 Sabre and an M103.
>1000+ playable vehicles
>Hasn't balanced the grind since 300 vehicles
Genius!
4:45 I like how the tank on the left just stop then a few seconds later you just see smoke then a shell whizzing by.
You may want to take use if the hover button, which is automatically binded to "h" key. Very helpful.
I can just imagine, russian magic school bus,
"Please be a normal field trip"
"With the friz?!"
"No way!"
"Ah blyat"
I got three WarThunder ads while watching this video

My favourite badger that calls itself Russian even tho it’s Canadian finally uploaded
fret he is a Canadian living in America who poses as a Russian Badger. I love him
Hey Badger, since you're an "influencer"
You should *influence* Gaij00b to rework parts, FPE, the RP & SL system.
Also into getting a proper CAS jet, looking at you, ma fam, A-10.
Also, a Free Counterfeit Abrams just for the memes.
gayjoob indeed
Free Abrams and T-80 too
Yeah, I'm stuck at french rank 4 because it costs an insane amount to grind, took me 2 years to get 6 jets in soviet and german. They need to scale rp and remove the cap.
*cough* 50cals in low tier air battles
17:55 when a tank gets stuck in mud, the people would climb out of the cockpit and unroll that, and it would then go down under the tracks, allowing for more traction
5:18 says "my god" instead of what in the name of tachanka

0:46 that's a good idea.
We need an entire team of hueys with unguideds, flying together, with somebody broadcasting Rise Of The Valkyries.
That would be beautiful.
Whos grateful badger didnt turn into a fortniter like H2O Delirious and BasicallyIDoWrk?
Isn't that what happened to Vanoss, too? I wouldn't know, I unsubscribed to him several months ago.
Yeah man, I’m missing the rainbow six, but I’m here for him not the game
I’m also glad that he quit being just a Battlefield InFlUeNcEr.
@@tubplunger Vanoss is still making videos? Wow. I thought he gave up
I'd be grateful if badger wasn't always doing sponsored vids and did more siege
I know it's his choice but imo it's getting really annoying now
I saw the “You have an A10 Warthog” Clip the other day and I looked up ^ and I got this, and I was dying laughing the entire time
Badger: "Hey theres a jet below you" *continues to shoot at Hellcat which is clearly a prop plane*
I’ve never even played this game before, but take my upvote my dude. That was entertaining AF.
"If we throw enough people at the bullets they will eventually run out of bullets" I think I know where "they can't stop us all" came from
Me: Sorry officer, i have a card for this M1A2 Abrams.
Officer: A card? What do you mean?
Me: Its for medicinal use sir
Officer: But its a tank? How can it be for med-
Me: *Shouts in second ammendment
Get me to 1k guys, almost there
No no, officer what he means to say is that he needs all 120 mm to ensure that he gets his maximum dose of freedoms and Anti-Communist medication every day, he thereby requires that he must have his Abrams fully active and ready at any time for a dose.
I must have my recreational Lockheed Trident II D5 SLBM 🅱oi

you should of said "Tanks for the likes"
8:28 - I squeeze my fucking legs and basically feel like I'm in a dogfight whenever I'm flyin' the aircraft. Badger isn't wrong about the breathing exercises.
