    Some of the assets used in this reenactment are not 100 % historically accurate. Il-14 transport plane is represented by B-26. Canberras used here are not recon variants but bomber. These are not mistakes but approximations and there's no need to 'correct' them. Also, I am aware that the word 'lieutenant' is (for some reason) pronounced 'left tenant' in British English and there's no need to comment on that either. Thank you!

      There is a reason why it is pronounced like that in British English; we are not French.

      @PappaBear_yt I'm not an expert on the US language so couldn't really speculate why they pronounce it like the French.

      @PappaBear_yt In lieu of the tennant (in place of the ranking officer)
      but the habit was to differ to the French pronunciation.

    If, as I hope, you cover all of the 1956 conflict, including the Anglo-French attacks on Egypt, then things are going to become eventful and complicated.
    But well done so far!

    • @showtime112
      @showtime112  День тому +2

      The plan is to focus primarily on the conflict between Israel and Egypt but as far as technical conditions allow, there will be details of the British and French involvement. By that, I mean primarily the lack of adequate map in War Thunder (and adequate aircraft in DCS).

    This war was a watershed in international politics as it showed that the old imperial powers had become ‘has beens’ and it was the USA and he USSR who called the shots. Interestingly, there’s still a lot of people here, in the UK, who still haven’t worked this out yet!

      @showtime112 Thanks for your coverage and nice note in 1973. Most Israeli aircraft that were shot weren't by EAF but by SAMs
      F-4 phantom was way superior to mig-19 and mig-21s. That's why it's the first American jet to enter service in EAF after the war

    FYI, Abdel Hakim Amer was an absolute disaster for Egypt. He was President Nasser's right-hand-man and in 1953, he was promoted from Major to Major-General, bypassing the ranks of Lieutenant Colonel, Colonel and Brigadier and the 15 to 20 years of experience that goes with those ranks. So, in 1967, you now have not just a full General but a General of three Arab Armies who should have been no higher thank full Colonel. That's the main reason why Egypt in particular lost in 1967 - because Egypt was more interested in promoting people out of loyalty, not expertise so they didn't lose because of Israeli superiority.

      @abdulmismail ... Thank you for that context. So ... a guy who made Major through the ranks, makes friends with the President and gets appointed above all the other officers? The United States is considering that same choice at this very time. Most of us know it *sounds* stupid. But I hadn't realized that someone actually conducted the experiment and got real results.

    Un sujet qui m'a longtemps interrogé et sur lequel j'ai finalement quelques éclaircissements grâce à votre chaîne. J'attend la suite avec impatience.
    Je suis français et d'origine polonaise et j'aimerais proposer de revenir sur la campagne qui a mis le feu aux poudres et déclenché la 2e guerre mondiale, à savoir la campagne de Pologne. Je sais que les pilotes polonais sont courageusement montés au combat en sachant leurs machines dépassées
    et en forte infériorité numérique. Mais ils se sont bravement défendu et certains ont réussi quelques succès dont il est peut-être possible de retrouver la trace.
    Un nouveau sujet sûrement plus compliqué à réaliser du fait de l'ancienneté des évènements outre les archives polonaises qui ne doivent pas être très nombreuses à la suite d'une telle déroute.
    Je soumet cette idée à votre réflexion et vous laisse juge de sa faisabilité.
    En tous cas, merci pour la qualité de vos mise en scène et longue vie à votre chaîne !!
