Such a shame most people will never fully experience this. The sound alone is nothing. The bone shaking vibrations from them along with the feel of the earth shaking...... now that's power! Nice video
We used to do exercises on Salisbury where Chally 2s would attack our positions at dawn. After digging in all night, to first hear, and then see them charging at full chat is something I'll never forget. (Ex Royal Marines)
You should hear and feel the main gun firing. That REALLY rattles your fillings! If you ever get the chance, go to Lulworth ranges in Dorset and have a listen.
The totally indestructible Rolls Royce CV12, I was at Chobham the day the first Chieftain and the first Challenger moved. There are weeds growing up in the car park now. All gone.
I remember when the first Chieftains arrived in Detmold and went off to Hohne for summer training. Over half those belonging to The Royals broke down within days of getting there. Kept the REME busy for months. What a sound though. A Chieftain at 'full chat'! And not forgetting the smoke!!
I was the first person to pass there tracked licence.... in chally 2. After a challenger 1 went through the main gate on lower bovvy... 1998... before anybody asks. Challenger 1 for 2 for me driving defo
Worked at Vickers Newcastle where Challi 2 , Cheiftain ,turrets for the Warrior were built along with varients(recovery vehicles , bridge layers as well as Vickers Mark 3 and other tracked armour for foreign countries.Really enjoyed my 26 years with Vickers.
It was a great Company and the Newcastle site produced the best products. I visited (in service) regularly and was always impressed by all that worked there. Good old Armstrong works.
The best sounding tank ever, totally unique, a great tank in its day unfortunately fitted with a great sounding underpowered and unreliable engine. Once you have heard a regiment breaking cover at first light you will never forget. Enjoy ua-cam.com/video/nQ38tYaYPAk/v-deo.html
It's just a bored gunner who has to sit inside for the duration of the move and wants to have a look around. It's the most frustrating place to be until you are at the firing ranges :)
I've made another video this year of Challengers and Warriors with raw engine sounds so do a search on UA-cam for 'Challenger II Main Battle Tanks and Warrior AV's 2015' Enjoy!
Ha! Yeah, it actually made me a wee bit nervous at the time!!!! But in times since when I was doing shoots, if the CO saw me, or anyone with a camera I suppose, he'd do this with the main gun which made for some great shots!
The main gun tracking the cameraman was rather disconcerting! Chally 2 is one of those tanks that just look "right". I mean it's the ultimate recruitment tool... just show them the tank!
1:57 It sounds exactly like Chinese Type 99 tank depicted in Battlefield 4... Nice to know that DICE actually recorded the real sound, but why Challenger 2's sound for chinese tank...?
@@jonny2954 He means that it's very difficult to kill and can snipe you from miles away with one shot. The Leopard 2 is full of issues so it's the Panther of today
Anyone with experience here? What exactly does it take to become a crewmember of a Challenger 2? Of course you can join the British army as a tank crewman, but do you have to specify that you want to be in a Chally, or do you have to work your way up from smaller vehicles? Not only that, but do you have to be an Officer? or can you join straight in without coming from a specific college or university?
+Tai1g If you go onto the British Army website, go to 'Role Finder' and find 'Tank Crewman' (on page 11) and that has all the information you require. Good luck!
+Ian Woodbridge, they haven't been mothballed- the Army can't afford a new tank so they're extending the lifespan of the Challenger II. The big problem is that the Russian T14 has made just about every other tank in the World obsolete so for the time being we're left with what we have.....
+Razorback Max Ah, on paper the T14 is great, but remember Russia still lags behind in composite armour technology (they had little fund to research for quite some time) and the build quality even on the one they displayed was quite rough. In actual battle I doubt it would do well.
Please, can we use footage from your UA-cam channel for our videos about military cars, trucks a other machines? We tag your channel as a source ,... thank you. :)
No, this sounds more like a fully loaded double decker Setra with a V8 engine; also, that whine is too low for turbo, sounds more like a really loud transmission
Unlike the "le turd" it's actually been in real combat, it's never been knocked out in combat (apart from a blue on blue, from another Chally) even after coming under sustained RPG and AT missile attack, for hours on end, the only thing damaged was it's sights. Oh and it just so happens to have the longest tank kill in history, at over 2miles away under its belt. I believe that trumps you sir ;-)
love it!
Ayyyyyyy I was expecting to see you here lol
Love ur channel
Me to 👍
Another matsimus spotted.
of course you would

When ever I go to bovvy I always make sure I follow a training tank. Feels like your ribs are trying to escape!

My brother worked on these for years but still has nightmares of them accidentally sliming him against a wall, they were so fast and powerful.
Das möchte man nur in Ausnahmefällen erleben.
I can just listen, and remember way better days... Cheers...
I'm the same

I passed my tracked vehicle licence on challenger 2.... because challenger 1 went through the front gate in bovvy.
@@Nick-hg4nm Gear box failure or steering breaks?
I love whenever I go and visit the tank museum and I get behind one of these. Makes my chest rumble.

@@markcray5397 Many thanks for your kind comment.I was very proud to have worked at Vickers.
1:36 nice gunner! Great video, love the sound!
Wicked cool shot
I could listen to this all day long
Sie haben ihre Antenne - sie können ihr sagen, was sie ihnen anvertrauen.
Used to always love visiting the viewing area down at Bovington in Dorset, one of the best sounding engines!
Cool footage! Hope to see more of this beast.
👍🏻🎶🎶🎶🎶 That Rolls Royce sound just sends shivers down my back!
Wonderful seeing the BEST Tank in the world.
Awesome without the music Razor, speakers well turned up now!
Best sounding tank in the world
I've also noticed that it's the only tank that doesn't flinch when firing. Baddass.
This and Leopard tanks have the best engine sounds, hands down.
@@SabotSender t-55 sounds good too

Awww, what's this sound? Beautiful.
At 1:35 anyone watching this get that feeling your being set up for a target.
Yes

@@dialytan2002 Fantastic footage Max, thanks bro 🇬🇧👍🙏
Love the sound, which is why I always always use the Chinese mbt on bf4, exact sound
Word. They also used this engine tone for the T-90 in BC 2 and BF3-4, but without that transmission sound.
Think it was called the Type 99 or 96.
Chinky tanks are only designed to squash disenters, they have never been proved in battle.
1:20 OK, now drink your tea.
Im 1 step ahead of you
+jcwarmachine 123 the view is astonishing, instagram and a cup of tea is a perfect match.
+Pandu Widagdo because who doesn't love tanks and drinking tea.
@@alexramsay5392 I dont like tea, and im a brit
What a great sound!
Ahh.. Tank gunner best job i ever had!
The go to video for the pissed up ex chally crewman
Takes me right back to tankfest 😂😂
The tank is looking at me... "Puts hands up in surrender"
It actually made me really nervous!
The main gun tracking the cameraman was rather disconcerting!
Chally 2 is one of those tanks that just look "right". I mean it's the ultimate recruitment tool... just show them the tank!
I drove the armoured recovery version for a few years
A very nice sound of power
I don't know what's nicer looking, the tank or the sunset
Aston Martin of the tanks 🇬🇧🇬🇧
1:57
It sounds exactly like Chinese Type 99 tank depicted in Battlefield 4...
Nice to know that DICE actually recorded the real sound, but why Challenger 2's sound for chinese tank...?
vriant02 likely because it would be a lot harder going into China and getting permission to record the audio.
They also used the same sound for the T-90 in BC 2, BF 3/4
Yes indeed i clearly hear a T-90 from Bad company 2 in those black panthers
Brings back memories of the Plain.
Modern Day Tiger
Huh? More like Cromwell or Comet. Modern day Tiger is the Leopard 2.

Hopefully they will never be used, since when they are it is serious. And I hope we will have them when needed.
Transmission basically sounds like a very loud Voith DIWA gearbox
Saddle up, lock and load, we're moving out 🇬🇧

Sounds like a jet.
More like a tea pot
Abrams is more like Jet.
MoronicAcid1 it’s twin turbo
No, this sounds more like a fully loaded double decker Setra with a V8 engine; also, that whine is too low for turbo, sounds more like a really loud transmission
@@teravolt6113 Well, It's a twin turbo, v12 Rolls Royce designed Diesel.
Should put the fear of god hearing that noise approaching if you were Russian sitting in a T90
Beast of war
What makes that loud noise?That whistling sound, not the exhaust. Is that a turbo?
Twin turbo v-12 desil, the turbos are the size of a stewing pot
Looks to me as a King tiger Reborn a British!
it's a music to my ears. !
Brits surely know how to make best sounding equipment
Where you from bro?
@@adolflenin4973 india
If you were the enemy and you heard that, you would probably shit yourself.
whats the engine called
Those are music, not noises.
Awesome, is that Salisbury
The Afghan soundtrack
Can someone tell me what that box at the back of the gun barrel is?
It's the housing for the TISH/ TOGS sight head. On Chally 1 it was mounted in a cleft on the right side of the turret.
should have put this into Armoured Warfare
I love how the Challenger 2 looks and sounds familiar to a Tiger 2.
01:36 what would the cameraman feel if it would be loaded
Awesome!
dose it have a turbo in it?
The Pilot Penguin yes its a V-12 turbo diesel
Rory Duncan thx
Twin turbo*
what is your profile pick is it what i think it is
+ben carlisle 26.1 litre twin turbo 1200BHP @2300rpm...Ex REME..
The Challenger, Merkeva and the Abrams are my favorite tanks.
Exactly the same sound from BF4 main battle tank
Ps. Challenger 2.
Ты быканул или мне показалось ? 1:37
Leclerc tank shoots with 98% accuracy on a moving target, while being moving itself. How about you, Challenger ?
No idea but I don't want to get shot by either of them!
Pretty much the same but with a four man crew, better armour, a tea boiling vessel,................
Very useful - when in reverse I imagine 😂🤣😂
Think we have the record for the longest tank to tank hit all while he brewed up aswell
Unlike the "le turd" it's actually been in real combat, it's never been knocked out in combat (apart from a blue on blue, from another Chally) even after coming under sustained RPG and AT missile attack, for hours on end, the only thing damaged was it's sights. Oh and it just so happens to have the longest tank kill in history, at over 2miles away under its belt.
I believe that trumps you sir ;-)
battlefield 4 my friends.
Where's the diesel smoke?
You can see it as they start up and clearly at 23 seconds and 38 seconds.
Uraaa
tank asmr
Sounds like the 47 bus
Is it me or does anyone else find the sound of those tracks eery ?
I know what you and yes...….
I was at the Welsh coast, heard that sound of tracks down a street..............it was the RNLI lifeboat being towed out.
រថក្រោះChellnger ស្អាត
wow......
Only God can help Russia when these wade into the fight.
Nghe tiếng máy quá nặng nề,không cơ động trong chiến đấu
Not quite the penetrating scream of the Chieftain.
True, but at least with a Challenger you know it'll actually start most of the time.
to russia this is what a real battle group looks like
7 challenger 2 tank I trip I go I need every monthly send me farm veng district let go
Warthunder needs to stop passing around BIG TIME are we're gonna invade Russia with 75 ton monsters
Best tank, no doubt.
Sound dont beat the Leopard though. :D
Most of that sound is people who can’t drive challenger tanks.
Challenger would be my 1st pick for best sounding then t90m
