@Daniel Walder as said in video , not all variants had it , and I didn’t say that it didn’t have , just pointed it that I didn’t know that in fact some of them were built with stabilisers , and as usual at that time I guessed they would work at low speeds like Churchill’s and Sherman’s
@Hans Blitzkrieg Germany had a quality over quantity approach, if you have few tanks and they easily break, then you are screwed. However the Soviets had a quantity over quality mentality, which meant that a broken tank was easily replaced.
2:05 Actually, Panther A has a 700hp 3000rpm engine, which is HL230 without rev limiter. 600 hp 2500rpm has rev limiter applied to reduce transmission stress and improve it's durability. 650hp 3000 rpm engine is an earlier HL210 mounted in Panther D variant.

@@CrazyDutchguyswehraboo spotted The panther was rare to encounter as was the tiger, while Shermans were a dime a dozen. As for it’s turret, it had slow traverse and was not impervious to frontal attack. There were a number of tanks that could withstand a hit from a Panther.
@@paraphidd From my understanding of multiple sources, the Panzer 3 and 4s were rare as well in mid to late war as well, on record being as few as 1 Panzer 4 per 100 shermans or t-34s
A couple of others, specific to foreign Panthers: -Due to low numbers in service, only four Panther ‘Dauphines’ may spawn per match. -Due to wartime sabotage, components of the Panther ‘Dauphine’ have a chance to randomly fail. -Due to shortage of parts, some components cannot be repaired or replaced, and others take longer to repair. -Due to low numbers in service, only two T-Vs may be spawned per match. This number increases to three per match if the player is Romanian (a number were handed off to Romania by the Soviets for their post-war military to use). -Due to shortage of parts, some components cannot be repaired or replaced, and others take longer to repair.
I once had a Wehraboo annoying me as he kept on arguing that the Panther's Interleaved roadwheels and torsion bar suspension were not overengineered and were far more reliable than the Sherman's roadwheels and suspension. Despite me submitting evidence showing the opposite he kept on ignoring me. Even claimed that an AT mine would easily destroy an M4 outright but only slightly damage a Panther's torsion bar, (which he also claimed were super easy to repair). (Torsion bar suspensions as a whole are not unreliable, when properly maintained and if the vehicle itself is reliable then the Torsion bar suspension is fantastic, that was not the case with the German tanks as their torsion bar suspensions were different to most and were fairly complicated, which made them more prone to failures than a standard torsion bar suspension).
0:34 Or simply a governor that holds the engine reving at max RPM, very common in every military vehicle, even today ! Not really relevant.. For the corollary of engine wear, i do agree but only half ! Why ? Maybach engines were known to be really reliable ! And tank engine were designed (still today) to be ran at max power output all the time ! (most of it) Even if spare parts were scarce, maintenance was pretty easy compared to some other tanks.. turret was spacious as well as the hull part.. only transmission install and repair were tedious, this counter balance the longer repair times ! Rest is indeed correct ! Panther was an amazing piece of technology (back then)
On the early Panthers the production was so rushed that most of the vehicles broke down after a little time. They perfected the Panther though, but the last variant was deployed in late 1944, too late in the war
If the Panther was historically accurate, you'd better run and hide to repair and hope the repair doesn't last long enough for the mud to freeze on Stalingrad.
@Hans Blitzkrieg damn you are really determined to make the Panther seem like a reliable tank. Reliability of German transmissions went out as soon as the Pz 4 F2 dropped.
@@ali_ing069 being an allieboo is a better thing then being a wehraboo. Why should I take a stand for the people that killed millions for no reason? And no,this information is correct. You are the wrong one here. German transmissions were overcomplicated and underpowered for a heavy vehicle like a Panther or tiger ll.

"Since the panther is a cool animal, a zoo guardian can spawn at any moment in the map to drag your panther into a zoo, income will be given to the player from the zoo but cant play the tank anymore until he achieve a rescue mission whenever he wants"
The Panther II had some other difference that made it simmilar to the Tiger for ease of production. Like the suspension and wheels were the same as the tiger's. There were plans to add a 88mm gun instead of the 75, and the Panther II turret was actually made. The configuration that you present in the video is the earlier proposed version of the panther II because soviet anti tank rifles could penetrate the panther. This version was never made because the problem of weak side armour was solved by adding side skirts instead. The Later panther II project was made to be simmilar to the tiger ans share parts with it, have a 88mm gun and have a new turret.
Final drives were significantly improved since late A models. Frozen mud making tank stuck is a myth. There is no single service note regarding both Tiger and Panther having this issue.
I don't think this is controversial. Practically everyone I know agrees at least 70% of tiger players are young wehraboos who fundamentally don't understand the game or their tank's strengths and weaknesses. Assuming gaijin does balancing by stats - it would look as though the tiger is underperforming because of all the aforementioned negtive kill ratio players. I suspect this is the reason it's been overtuned for so long.
Good addition. One thing that I always struggled to understand, though: the roadwheels freezing over. Not just in this tank, but in many others. How can frozen mud immobilise a vehicle that has enough horsepower to tow 45 tons behind it?
@@h5skb4ru41 The Panther's powertrain is capable of moving a 45 t vehicle while towing another 45 t behind it, that is why I have a tough time comprehending it.
2:07 it's 700hp, not 650. Idk details but seems to be the Tiger H1/Panther D 650hp engine but upgraded. This 100hp drop from the A to the G/F makes me wish they were at the same BR as the A. Yeah the turret armor is a bit better but it's rotation is also slower.
A stabilized gun site for the F would make it worth playing. I have the Panther II already and use the A at 5.7. When I did play the F it felt underwhelming.
this series is just a few facts about a tank being a subject, literally game part can be excluded and we'll be left with the same thing except images from the game
You know, I've always wondered, if the majority of German aircraft utilized mechanical fuel injection, then why not create a derivative for the tank Maybach V12s? I assume cost was a huge factor... after all, by the time the DB605 was released, bearings and other critical internal components had been downgraded to the point that the engines were horrendously unreliable and dangerous until later rectified... so I guess the same issue plagued Maybach's tank engine design. They probably really wanted to make an engine that would last forever and be reliable, and, the extreme difficulty of maintenance points towards the engineers originally intending for that to be the case, but I suppose we'll never know now.
So basically, in game: - a Panther II that simply has thicker armour, at 6.0 - should have a slower acceleration and top speed - Panther F should have a stabilizer - Panthers should have weaker tracks - Panthers should have a slightly longer repair time I love my Panthers, the armour is insane, the firepower is superb and the mobility keeps up somehow. I think it'd be much more balanced with these changes.
The way I see it they should put the panther 2 back in the game to make it available for everyone to research again, because 6.7 Germany needs a medium tank. And remake the panther F, because its inferior to the G and A model, it should at least have the panther 2s up armored hull, with a stabilize but everything else should be the same. So same gun as the old panthers and such. Even make it a 6.3 tank with the upgrades And on a side note Gijian model the damn drivers port on the Stug 3, and put in the game the concrete varint of the Stug as well.
fucking boring. The planes would be even slower than the biplanes we have already. And the tanks would be garbage as most of them only had LMG's or howitzers and cant go over 14km/h
That is impossible because those tanks were never meant to fight each other at all. They were specifically designed to cross trenches and kill infantry. And ww1 planes were just horrible in all aspects.

"AGH my transmission"
Well that is what thorough research looks like. Congratulations, if I was in Gaijin I would hire you. *If*
You see this panther 2?
Gaijin: no where?
Yo was that knocked out barrel... R A Y T R A C E D???
The Panther II had some other difference that made it simmilar to the Tiger for ease of production. Like the suspension and wheels were the same as the tiger's. There were plans to add a 88mm gun instead of the 75, and the Panther II turret was actually made. The configuration that you present in the video is the earlier proposed version of the panther II because soviet anti tank rifles could penetrate the panther. This version was never made because the problem of weak side armour was solved by adding side skirts instead. The Later panther II project was made to be simmilar to the tiger ans share parts with it, have a 88mm gun and have a new turret.
Final drives were significantly improved since late A models. Frozen mud making tank stuck is a myth. There is no single service note regarding both Tiger and Panther having this issue.
I've been literally waiting for this
You have a catch-22: you cannot make vehicles balanced, historically accurate, and timeline-accurate in respect to other tanks at the same time.
Yay! Waited quite a bit for this one!
Love the halo music in the back round mate
Controversial opinion: tigers and panthers are crutches for bad players.
Best run now before they hunt you down
@@theweebthatyouknow2269 nah its fine. Most of them play as point an click instead of aiming. So I think im safe.
@@conzemius3436 you right you right
I don't think this is controversial. Practically everyone I know agrees at least 70% of tiger players are young wehraboos who fundamentally don't understand the game or their tank's strengths and weaknesses. Assuming gaijin does balancing by stats - it would look as though the tiger is underperforming because of all the aforementioned negtive kill ratio players. I suspect this is the reason it's been overtuned for so long.
Spook literally made a video about it: The tiger problem
If a huge HE round can wreck this tank, imagine what HESH can do to this tank.
It can be hullbroken on the turret with 3 75mm he round orbin the ufp by multiple(not sure how many) 17pdr ap
Good addition. One thing that I always struggled to understand, though: the roadwheels freezing over. Not just in this tank, but in many others. How can frozen mud immobilise a vehicle that has enough horsepower to tow 45 tons behind it?
You understimate how hard and thick mud can get on frozen maps
@@h5skb4ru41 The Panther's powertrain is capable of moving a 45 t vehicle while towing another 45 t behind it, that is why I have a tough time comprehending it.
Conclusion: "Make more spare parts for Panzer IVs"
If war thunder was realistic, there’d be a lot more problems but also a lot more fun
>Panther with stabilizer
Now that is a fucking good reason to play something other than Panther A
Stabilized _gun sight.*_ Not a stabilized _gun._
If, P1000 Ratte was historically accurate.
If the P1000 Ratte was historically accurate it would be two dimensional.
2:07 it's 700hp, not 650. Idk details but seems to be the Tiger H1/Panther D 650hp engine but upgraded. This 100hp drop from the A to the G/F makes me wish they were at the same BR as the A. Yeah the turret armor is a bit better but it's rotation is also slower.
0:13 wait, so its a lie that the panther 2 was going to have an 8.8cm gun and a different turret?
yes
A stabilized gun site for the F would make it worth playing. I have the Panther II already and use the A at 5.7. When I did play the F it felt underwhelming.
When track are not broken
Finally. Something ive been waiting for
WOW, 39 seconds after publication :)
Not gonna mention that it should hullbreak?
this series is just a few facts about a tank being a subject, literally game part can be excluded and we'll be left with the same thing except images from the game
if stabilised gun sights were a thing in war thinder the amx 30 line would be beasts. On that note can you do one the amx 30s please :)
You know, I've always wondered, if the majority of German aircraft utilized mechanical fuel injection, then why not create a derivative for the tank Maybach V12s? I assume cost was a huge factor... after all, by the time the DB605 was released, bearings and other critical internal components had been downgraded to the point that the engines were horrendously unreliable and dangerous until later rectified... so I guess the same issue plagued Maybach's tank engine design. They probably really wanted to make an engine that would last forever and be reliable, and, the extreme difficulty of maintenance points towards the engineers originally intending for that to be the case, but I suppose we'll never know now.
Best tank change my mind
>Early panthers...
>Shows G model
So basically, in game:
- a Panther II that simply has thicker armour, at 6.0
- should have a slower acceleration and top speed
- Panther F should have a stabilizer
- Panthers should have weaker tracks
- Panthers should have a slightly longer repair time
I love my Panthers, the armour is insane, the firepower is superb and the mobility keeps up somehow. I think it'd be much more balanced with these changes.
The way I see it they should put the panther 2 back in the game to make it available for everyone to research again, because 6.7 Germany needs a medium tank. And remake the panther F, because its inferior to the G and A model, it should at least have the panther 2s up armored hull, with a stabilize but everything else should be the same. So same gun as the old panthers and such. Even make it a 6.3 tank with the upgrades
And on a side note Gijian model the damn drivers port on the Stug 3, and put in the game the concrete varint of the Stug as well.
snail, just give us a panther ii with the thickened panther hull armor, the turm panther ii (schmale blende), and the 75 l/70 and we'd be all happy
How would you feel about ww1 tanks and planes added to the game?
PLEASE
fucking boring. The planes would be even slower than the biplanes we have already. And the tanks would be garbage as most of them only had LMG's or howitzers and cant go over 14km/h
That is impossible because those tanks were never meant to fight each other at all. They were specifically designed to cross trenches and kill infantry. And ww1 planes were just horrible in all aspects.
I would love to play a Spookston game mode in warthunder
all these peeps be placing jokes.
me: asks for advice for WT
Hey Spooks, how ya doing?
(I had to say this because last time it got deleted...)
Meanwhile Sherman: *explodes violently*
The sherman was one of the least likeley tank to explode since it uses wet stowage(not modeled ingame)
a little splish-splash doesn't stop an explosion
@@balazsmejzer4213 maybe not but the later shermans had the lowest burn rate of later war
