That is so adorable, I want one
It looks like a tracked Fennek.
Sir, what a pleasure to here and follow your comments as usual .. definitely amazing. Thank you !
Thank you for your positive comment. We try to do our best to produce nice content. Alain
...it is not 30mm cannon. It is a 27mm Mauser BK 27 revolver-loaded autocannon with up to 1700 r.p.m. It ist the same gun as into the Tornado-Jet and the German light-weight-navy-gun-system....
Plus 27mm is the odd size , internationally far more common to get ammunitions in 20mm, 25mm or 30mm.
Better export potential in 25mm or 30mm.
How many countries still use Tornado Jets?
@@agactual7901 bk 27 is also in use in the Eurofighter and as Rcws on ships like the MLG 27 on use of most if not all german warship. The thing with 30mm is that there is no real good alternativ. The 30x113mm is to inefective in anti Armor and 30x173 to strong in recoil, to big and the cannons are heavy close 2 to 3 time the weight of bk 27. 25mm would have been Possible but why a knew caliber when you got one. Tought bk 27 fires far to fast with an RoF from 1000 to 1700 shoots but i think single shoot is also there
@@agactual7901 They don't plan to export it, it's too much of a niche vehicle, designed for the needs of the German paratroopers. T
he total length, width, height and weight of the vehicle is determined by the internal size and lift capacity of the CH-53 helicopter, which has to carry two of these.
Valhalla designed a turret that's just high enough to fit. So they put the biggest cannon that fits on the turret, that also has to be light enough.
IF they wish to export it, there are plenty of other turrets and remote weapon station available on the market.
@@scratchy996 also because a old CH-53 GA has to have the capability to carry atleast 1. This also why the weight is only 4.5t not higher as the Chinook im the ch-47f variant can carry a bit more than 9 tons
@@scratchy996 CH-47 has to carry 2. Not CH-53 GA with its which can only carry a max load of i think 5t
Thank you 🙏 great 👍 job looks dependable for army ☝️. 👍🎥
I'm loving that cannon! Nice 🦾
Yeah Bk27 to the win. Its wrong that the BK 27 didnt got into the F-35 where it should have been
It's so cute!
Nah i think Wiesel is cuter
that oversized cannon make it looks funny
The weasel was getting a bit old this looks like it will be a good replacement.
😎
Please tell me the advantages and disadvantages of the tracked type with separate front and rear parts and the regular integrated type.
redundancy and steering ratio
Nice short video, Thank You.
Question on so many minds:
Why?, as why did they go for Split / Quad Tracks?
What gains,advantage does it have over twin tracts vehicles?
Hi, Thank your for your feedback. We are on the process to produce more unique content. Alain
Simple because it gives better mine Protection. You can lose 1 maybe 2 tracks each on one side and you could still drive.
@Kqcke for You Exactly. Losing a track is often how tracked vehicles are immobilized and taken out. That's what anti-tank mines are actually designed to do, blow off the track.
Disadvangte is a little more complex and heavier Design with more parts. Also it is a litte questionable at how usefull it is with the small weight of LuWa not mutch can go to mine Protection. But that is a question i cannot answer
for tracked vehicles, their is a thing called "steering Ratio": That is the length of the Track that is in contact to the ground divided through the width of the track gauge. When an tracked vehicle wants to turn, the tracks have to work in different speeds - that means that the one track try´s to work on an lever with the length of the track gauge against the "resisitance" of the whole length of that part of the track on the opposite side that has contact with the ground. this simply means that if the "steering Ratio" is great - long tracklengt on the ground and narrow track gauge - you need an great amount of torque ( = engine power) to turn the vehicle. For an good steering, the steering ratio of an tracked vehicle should be near or even under 1 (track gauge = tracklengt on the ground) - then you can turn fast and easy. But unfortunatly, the size of roads or transport vehicles makes it hard to impossible to widen the track gauge. Result: Long Tracks and so bad steering. This was for example an great problem of french tanks before WWII - the french ministry of defence had ordered that any tank had to fit narrow french roads - means they had to be narrower than 2,5 to 2,7 m ( 8 - 9 feet). And so the french engeneers had to "squeeze" the whole "tank-stuff" in relatively narrow but long vehicles. and that made them hard to steer. And sothe steering system was a weak point for nearly all french tanks of the 40´s - german tanks of that era were build so that had only to fit the railway-transport-limitations, means they had to be smaler than 3,3 m ( 11 feet) - quiet a difference. today small roads are less of an problem, but if you want to transport an vehicle via airlift or in an container.... and mobility/easy steering is even more important then ever to avoid to be hit. So to avoid too long trackslengths - simply divide the tracks in 2 independent track-sets. So you can build all necessary "tank-stuff" in an narrow and easy to transport vehicle that has then also good steering capabilities. Unfortunatly by doing so you add a "little bit" more complexity to the vehicle. Hope to have helped.
Where can i buy one?
problems multiplied by 4
Nah. You can lose on each side 1 track and still drive.
Its needs a nickname badly !
The Wiesel replacement will weigh 6 times the original Wiesel?
It looks like a Fennek with tracks.
What if...a 90mm cannon, like on the old SCORPIONS..🤯
This is thought for air defense in first place. Defense against drones for example. The bigger and heavier the ordnance the less you can take with you. It would also mean a much bigger and heavier gun and more stress on the frame.
Save the Wiesel ! 😊
The weasel is cuter and has less glass
Suitable for flat terrain but not safe for rough terrain.
And what about the efficiency of the equipment on board? 🤔
...Wiesel can operate in very rough terrain (e.g. it is in service with the German mountain troops....) and LuWa has even higher mobility....
Dude its still in development. It will function guys just like the wiesel
A $5000 USD RPG rocket propelled grenade would obliterate the front windows in it. What are they thinking?😮
That's the nice thing, the RPG would also obliterate any other part of it.
that's true for every light armored vehicle at any spot. Your comment does not make sense.
I can already see the War Thunder players complaining about it
Bambum bambum bambum so like strong when attack infantry but when meet MBT like T14 and become weak like rubish i throw away every day..
Comparing what's basically a Tankette to a Main Battle Tank is very unfair, don't you think?
secret ??
Lots of moving parts in that drive train.😬
Not really. Just in a Vehicle with only 4,5t and a with of 2.3m it looks very cramped.
But the 2 Chains per side does need a little bit more parts
Yeah, but it keeps a shot to the track or hitting a mine from disabling the vehicle, since it can lose one of the front tracks and still keep going. Pretty genius, really, since that is how tracked vehicles are often taken out.
Is this going to replace the Wiesel family?
Yeah but for now only Wiesel 1. Maybe also Wiesel 2 and that Variants or a diffrent LuWa variant but who knows
@@kqckeforyou4433 only the 2 so far, the 2 is newer, bigger and has a different armament.
so... mammoth it was real... with double tracks 🤣
il vas S'embourber dans la boue
a big toy ??
Yes
Yeeeeeesssss
VALHALLA TURRETS d.o.o. has 3-4 employees and started in 2016. does not look it will contribute a lot...
Probably a design office, you shouldn't expect that they will produce them by themself.
il et ridicule
Stop bragging and send it to Ukrain for testing.
Crap
Like your name😊
