Not just the BT-42 but all of the vehicles the museum had that was located outdoors Iirc it's a fairly small museum but the inventory is rather diverse
I know this is a joke, but realistically the Finns had nothing of major value to add to any modern tank, the BT-42 was the only major Finnish tank modification and it wasn't a very good one...
The Finnish meme tank makes Spookston laugh Fun fact: Because Girls Und Panzer Der Film had the BT-42 scene, a very dedicated fan decided to visit the last surviving BT-42 and played the Kantele instrument while in cosplay and sitting on the tank, later on, hearing that the Parola armored museum had trouble getting funds to build a roof over the historical tanks to preserve them, she begged her father to donate a substantial amount to the museum for the funds, and because of this they managed to get enough funds to build the roofs over the tanks, and in the museum, the tour guide will actually mention the anime by name, and the story about the loyal fan.
5:50 there’s an annoying feature that doesn’t seem to happen every time, but if you leave a game early if during that round you finish research on a modification any extra research that would normally be able to be put towards other modifications is instead lost to the cosmos
It happens if you leave eraly and go into another game, thats why I always wait for the game to end and play a different nation in the meantime or do other stuff
I want to love the concept so badly but I just have the worst luck with it and I swear it’s turning and gun handling are some of the worst I’ve ever played with
Didn't the heat shell for this thing have a fuse that wasn't set correctly or something? If I recall correctly it was not effective against tanks at all
8:08 spookston was so flabbergasted that this hit didn't kill that his mouth spawned a black hole which started consuming the whole world like a vacuum
The heat shell on this thing makes it totally worth it. Decently fast reload for derp Canon, at such a low BR that the heat show will go through one side and out the other of most vehicles while tearing up everything inside. It's an amazing vehicle that can even be brought up higher tiers
Look 25,4 millimeters is exactly an inch. If the US used the metric system they surely would’ve gone for just 25 millimeters. I can’t believe that there’s anything positive about the imperial system but apparently it saves Stuarts from BT-42s
Sweden is one of my favorite tank lines, some absolutely MEME level tank design ( so of which is amazing ) and access to vehicles from major countries to make the grind a bit easier without it being a massive part of the countries roster.
the nice part of the swedish meme vehicles is that unlike italian or french meme vehicles, swedish meme vehicles can hold their own in fight at their own br pretty well
Sweden's early tier HE is one od few HE shells that actually normally work most of the time for its tier. Although with HE, Gajin has this wierd thing to makes front plates invunerable to it. Probably for that imaginary balance they claim is realism.
The bt-42's HE is especially good because it's a fucking ginormous cannon. It's HEAT is also surprisingly good at taking out vehicles it normally shouldn't be good against. I've gone into matches with exclusively HEAT and taken out SPAAs without a second thought.
since you're in the mood for silly tanks you should play the ikv72, its as fast as the bt7, it has 20 degrees of gun depression, and neutral traverse, the aphe has a massive 270g of he filler and its ay 1.7, overall very fun td
Hey Spook, you should play the Semovente 75/46 M43. It's a deeply overshadowed italian tank destroyer which can deliver an heavy punch but it's deeply ignored the potential it has. I am not gonna surrender in proposing this. I AM NOT GONNA SURRENDER, BE CLEAR! I A M N O T B A C K I N G O F F! Y O U C A N' T K E E P G E T T I N G A W A Y W I T H I T ! (Day 118)
Good video as always. Good luck on that surgery man, I’ve had 17 done on my back for scoliosis, so I kinda know what you’re going through right now. Hopefully you have a good recovery.
I've also noticed something off with the match making. For me, it puts me on the same exact map, with the same capture point arrangement at least three times in a row. After the third game it finally switches to another map.
Huh. So its not only me going insane in the BVM getting penned in the lower glacis over and over and over again on the same map in 3 roes. It happens to other people too.
5:43 This is a bug that has been occuring for quite a while. When you leave a match, play another match and the match you played first finishes while you are in the 2nd match and you finish the last one as well, some RP will get sucked into the void and you will only get the modification you are researching instead of the excess. If you don't have enough RP to fully research that modification though, nothing happens. This bug also only occurs sometimes.
RAAAH FINLAND MENTIONED🇫🇮🇫🇮🇫🇮 You should play jagpanzer cuz its just too good for 4.3 It has good cannon and armor that cant be penned by most tanks in 4.3
Congrats on 300k Spookston. So nice to see a niche/underdog (no pun intended) youtuber grow a substantial audience, I respect the hard work and dedication and look forward to the day its 600k. Best of luck in future endevours my friend you deserve naught but the best for the entertainment you've given many people.
Wish it was actually good though. It's fun to snipe from an off-angle with, but that's all it's good for. You can't snipe from the backline, since you have no gun depression and you die to one hit, and obviously without stabs you can't frontline.
11:40 The turret is, because of the way gaijin modeled it, you got 3 armor plates. The mantlet, which has a same thickness plate under it, and then again behind the tunion following the general shape of the turret.
I like how Spookston summoned the Girls und Panzer community without even saying anything remotely associated with the anime. He just played with a tank that was used by one of the schools and that's it.
The BT-42 is the low tier equivalent to the FV4005. both having cobbled together turrets with oversized guns and a full sized backdoor. when one cannot spam enough HE
"ive been trying to get a map that isnt frozen pass for 30 mins" it honestly is comical how many maps we have in game and how most people would never know cuz the MM will just latch onto a set of 3-4 maybe 5-6 and that's all you'll ever see unless you get lucky
that shot at 11:13 goes through a tiny hole on the enemy tank, if you slow it down to 0.25 its easier to see. So if anything pretty impressive shot even if it missed XD
"The fans want me to play the BT-42" "I see no point in this tank" "So, we're not going to do it?" *Slides fingers over strings* "On the other hand, I do trust their judgement" *Insert Säkkijärven Polkka*
The interesting part is that alongside RBT-5, BT-42(and rumored finnish troop transport) is the only BT-2/5/7 variant vehicle. There are no SPGs, no tank destroyers, no ARVs, no SPAA and (what annoys me the most) no rocket artillery platforms based on BT tanks unlike whole "zoo" of things based on T-26. Imagine BM-13N installed on engine deck of BT-7M? Or BM-8-24 installed on RBT-5 turret that would allow it to retain main gun? In other words things that will allow soviets to get their rocket artillery ability to turn for aiming more easily(even if BT doesn't have neutral steering), have better offroad capability, have at least some armor, retain machinegun and 45mm gun for defense and have high speed for shoot and scoot?
Saw your q & a yesterday. Best wishes my man. My mom was diagnosed with lowish grade kidney failure a few years ago and as you probably know there is no cure. She had to stop eating a lot of the foods that she loved and I jumped on the wagon with her! Told her that I would stop eating those foods to! It was far, far harder to quit certain foods than it was to quit smoking years ago! Best of luck Spook!❤
I absolutley love the "bwau" plastic ball sound effect when killing someone with derp tanks, I wish I could add it as a custom sound efect to my actual game
If Gaijin needed to add a new WWII based scouting vehicle for Germany, might i suggest the 7.5 cm Kanone L/41 auf Zugkraftwagen 5t (AKA, the Pz.Sfl. II) for the job? Or for Cold War vehicles that fill the same role, we have the Spähpanzer Luchs, and even the Spähpanzer SP I.C. could work.
I've been playing this thing uptiered for like 4 days now and the best advice I can give for it: play it like you're in Girls Und Panzer. Never stop moving. Also don't use the HE.
That looked equal arts hilariously fun and utterly despair inducing. Kind of like playing a Churchill! That's right, this is vidoe 80 of requesting the Churchill.
You want frustration? I was driving my Conqueror yesterday and a SU-57-2 overpressured me through my barrel. From the side. The round detonated inside the barrel, about half-way down. With 20g HE filler. My jaw literally dropped
Hey, Spookston, didnt know about the renal injury till yesterday. My dorm supervisor in college had an autoimmune/ genetic disease causing him to attack his kidneys. The steroids also didnt help him like you except he got Cushing's. I got to see him recover as they worked through it all and he is married now. Keep your head up, stay strong, dont play WT too much as it sucks your life away more than disease

you really should've watched out for that one Flakpanzer more in the first match, he was shredding your team and he was the last one alive. killing him would've saved your team definitely

@@aiedenoldstien9751They do have a large and poorly armoured turret, however your generic Tiger main is only ever going to aim for the Upper Front Plate
6:00, about the terrible economy; Gaijin basically Black Friday’d us. First they make everything “cheaper” or “easier to achieve” and then they promptly and quietly cut earned RP in half. Effectively returning us to how it was before
7:30 I'm pretty sure the map rotation in this game isn't like other games, where you might get one of the 50 maps available... I think it is a daily rotation where you get these 2-3 maps today, and you get a different 2-3 maps tomorrow. (3 maps if you are lucky) I can go for like a month without seeing that Italian city map then one day it will be the only map I get all day. Same for air RB jets if you get a Pyrenees rotation for the day... fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuccck.
Thank you for making amazing videos, im rather sick right now and havent been able to do many things, but i can still watch your videos, so thank you. Funny tank man.
The guy that blew up at 8:46 mightve not J’d out on his own, my buddy and I both have had a glitch where the game will just randomly kill you for no apparent reason.

I love the fact that the Girls und Panzer community did a crowdfunding to pay for a roof to protect the last BT-42

Didn't the heat shell for this thing have a fuse that wasn't set correctly or something? If I recall correctly it was not effective against tanks at all
I don't know if that was the exact issue with the HEAT shell. But it is damn near useless it feels like. Mostly since Gajin nerfed most HEAT shells
Yes, IRL they tried to copy I think it was German HEAT. But because of the differences in launch velocity and spin they didn’t arm
Love how the stuart is impervious solely based on the conversion from one inch to mm going to 3 decimals
8:08 spookston was so flabbergasted that this hit didn't kill that his mouth spawned a black hole which started consuming the whole world like a vacuum

A war machine with a fierce glare.

Which ARL-44 are we talking here. Because the 5.3 one doesn't take hit too well. The 3.7 one can take a beating as long as it isn't magically lol penned on the front by a pz4.

The one with the gun superior to the long 88
@@slamdaddyshapirowo9893 That'd be the 5.3 one. It hits really hard, but it's not as strong armor wise.
@@aiedenoldstien9751They do have a large and poorly armoured turret, however your generic Tiger main is only ever going to aim for the Upper Front Plate
@@slamdaddyshapirowo9893 The bane of most German mains. You can't click on the tank and win.
Spookston be real, do you smoke the green? I don't know how you could play War Thunder without it
6:00, about the terrible economy;
Gaijin basically Black Friday’d us.
First they make everything “cheaper” or “easier to achieve” and then they promptly and quietly cut earned RP in half. Effectively returning us to how it was before
Spookston when he forgets the HEAT round has over 100mm of pen
As a swedish main,since this video came out, ive seen an uptick in bt-42 seal clubbing sightings
7:30 I'm pretty sure the map rotation in this game isn't like other games, where you might get one of the 50 maps available...
I think it is a daily rotation where you get these 2-3 maps today, and you get a different 2-3 maps tomorrow.
(3 maps if you are lucky)
I can go for like a month without seeing that Italian city map then one day it will be the only map I get all day.
Same for air RB jets if you get a Pyrenees rotation for the day... fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuccck.
Low tear Sweden is very interesting
Oh so that's where the AT-ST comes from.
Thank you for making amazing videos, im rather sick right now and havent been able to do many things, but i can still watch your videos, so thank you. Funny tank man.
this tank is my go to on my 4.0 lineup cause no one expects to be blasted from a tank coming from their spawn
The guy that blew up at 8:46 mightve not J’d out on his own, my buddy and I both have had a glitch where the game will just randomly kill you for no apparent reason.
Spookston survived 15 mins without getting CAS'd? Impossible.
U know its a good day when spookston uplauds a vid
Ive been suffering HARD on this game all day and seeing you experiencing the same off the wall shit as me makes me feel less insane. Glad to know its not just me 💀
from your first match i was like "wow its better than i recalled, why do i only go with HEAT so often?" then the Stuarts happened and I Rememebered
