They probably should have used this as a portable bunker really, just drive there and wait! Maybe they could dig a hole and burry the tank in there with concrete and remove engines and stuff and make it a literal cannon bunker, they did something like this with old tanks and panther turrets, they construct a bunker underground and used the turret as a cannon. This was a tactic in berlin's last stand but usualy they did this with old and useless tanks.
There are 3 different modes the transmission/engines operate in. 1st is for the initial acceleration and climbing steep hills, 2nd for continued acceleration to get you to third as well as on rough terrain, and 3rd is simply for most of your driving. Running in 3rd is generally what you want to do, but doing such off road gives you about 10-11km/h at best. You can shove it back down into 2nd or even 1st to get it to speed again, however, this works the engines at full power. I decided to try it off road in a mix of 1st and 2nd to see how long it would last. About 8-10 minutes later and the driver and radio operators compartment was filling with smoke from the engines and smoke was pouring out the engine compartment up top. You CAN drive for quite a while, but if you want to, you're not going anywhere fast. You can use 1st and 2nd, but I'd consider them combat gears where you move a bit, stop, fire a bit, move again, and repeat or you will fry the engines and transmission. Took 10 minutes to get the engines to a reasonable state where I could move without it sounding like it was powered by cluster of dying cats.
@@kaptainkrafter4130 And they also made _a lot_ of T-34s... so many that you can still buy surplus ones (demilitarised, of course) today for a little more than the cost of a new Honda Civic. Shipping it to where you live (assuming you don't plan on moving to the Baltic or eastern Europe or already happen to live there) will cost you an arm, a leg, and a kidney, though.
They were used in a role that were not intended to be used as a break through tank. This was because Soviet defense's were so strong that they attempted to use this to break through them.
My favorite ww2 tank killer, Panzerjager Ferdinand AKA Elefant, i wonder how faithful the interior is to the real Mccoy? documentation on Elefants is not easy to come by, someday someone is going to write a really nice technical book on it,i have a few but they are scarce on info.
@@traxel14 By Kill Ratio the Porsche Ferdinand/Elephant can’t be battled in the title. 89 Ferdinands were sent to the eastern front in tank hunter battalions, the Heeres Panzerjäger Abteilung 653 and 654. They were use to kill T-34 at FIVE! kilometers with ratio Kill:Loss of 10:1. The Ferdinands destroyed 320 T-34’s in Kursk at the loss of only 13 Panzerjägers. Conclusion, by Tanks destroyed per unit, the ferdinand was the most lethal of the war.
@@dedfingord33 I think the kill ratio is about correct, but they lost more Ferdinands than 13, most were to mechanical failures and mines. About 94 sent to Kursk/Orel battles, about half were destroyed. Of all tank destroyer numbers of tank kills, the Stug IIIs/IVs had more, over 20,000 allied vehicles were destroyed. Information is from Combat History of the Schwere Panzerjager Abteilung 653 by Karlheinz Munch except the Stug III info. I highly doubt the combat range of 5 miles, as the 88mm Kwk 43 L71 gun effective range was about 1 to 1 1/2 miles.
Imagine being inside when the gun was fired. Bet it made your ears ring for days. Noticed the sound effects for the guns all sounds the same for every tank.
Ive been playing Sturmovik since it came out back in 01, i have played every incarnation of it, tanks,airplanes, gliders,you name it,sounds are not their cup of tea and every time someone has tried to help, the fanbois get quite indignant and run for the hills so thats that,on a real German fighter in WW2 when the cannons would fire the whole plane would shake, you definitely felt it and they were LOUD. Its always been a niche game so no money for any niceties,dont get me wrong, i love the game but the sounds have always been meh. Know what you mean about the gun and being inside,Ive always said i would love to , just once, be standing next to a 88 when it went off,no ear protection, just once,lol
You know what’s crazy, this tank already struggled to go fast because of the underwhelming engine, and you know what the germans thought *”Lets give it a bigger gun”* and didn’t make the engine any more Reliable and workable and that was called the elephant. Just a Ferdinand but Bigger gun. I don’t know why the Germans used the P-tiger chassis. It was so underwhelming
Хорошая звуковая анимация выстрела а у су-152 вообще никакая, хотя должна быть в два раза более оглушающая, потому что в радиусе 600 метров у домов выбивало стекла, а у людей стоящих и рядом с самоходкой лопались перепонки, а здесь она всего лишь хлопушка.
the viewports in this game are so fascinating as they are not PIP textures but rather a texture that allows the tank / crew models to be hidden making for a perfect view and with no sacrifice on performance because of its use. other games have done this such as arma but it just a simple window with no magic texture so it looks much less impressive and ugly in comparison.
I'm not sure the 88mm on the Ferdinand could take out the SU 85 with a frontal impact at that range - (which wasn't introduced until August 1943), by which time the Ferdinands had been withdrawn from combat for modifications - including a new bow machine gun and zimmerit paste, so these two tanks never actually faced each other on the Eastern Front.
Это не Су-85, а СУ-152: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SU-152 "The SU-152 was produced in large numbers throughout 1943, with the first SU-152s being issued to new heavy mechanized gun regiments raised in May 1943. The first regiment arrived at Kursk with only 12 guns, and was brought up to its full strength of 21 guns during the fighting."
The map is still look like a shity games from 15 years ago. I can't believe that dev is simply ok with such a low textures rendering. I mean look, there are no any shadows! I will stay with War Thunder for a while as I lost hope with this game. Before they release tanks they did lots of empty promises about how high the resolution of the tank map will be and bal bla bla but now I am very disappointed.
At certain moments, when you change the range of the gun, the distance appears on the right side of the view. I checked the key mapping in the game, but cannot find any key to get this. How can this be done?
@@Geoweb35 Sorry to bother you again, but one last question. How on earth do you get your man to put down those binoculars once you have selected them? Pressing Ctrl 5 does not act as a toggle?

I've heard that compared to a bunker the Ferdinand has an excelent mobility!
On the field-terrain all they was similar mobility, - 12-15 km/h. Ferdinand had electrotransmission

Im surprised your transmission didn’t fail and your tank caught fire just from driving

Actually the Ferdi was more reliable than the tiger 1 and 2 due to its electric drive.
BRealistic you ever heard of a joke?
@@OumuamuaOumuamua
That joke has been repeated so much that people have started to believe it.
John Highway yeah its sad, tho the ferdi was actually underpowered irl
That Ferdinand is a beast of the battlefield.
I'd love to see it crest the Hill. Heard it has a tendency of catching fire or the transmission just giving up on life.
1:06 the engine sounds is very hot
My dream tank would have the engine start sound of the Ferdinand and the idle sound of a Tiger. Both sound amazing
I loved it from 25:11 on when it first spotted and began to engage enemy tanks. Where can I get more footage like that with an Elefant/Ferdinand???
This panzer is a Ferdinand because it has the first type dome/door and lacks the MG in the front position
Does it have 10% chance to get fire in engine, like real one had?
This channel is gold for tank and battle simulator fans.
You are right! Unfortunately it doesn't have the popularity it deserves. Not yet.
@@nickfilippos3340 yet* (it will im sure)
Fantastic. Looks so real. Great job on this video.
Thanks
Is there any game where I can take a look on interior of an AMX 13?
2:19 sneaky sneaky little bit
I didnt know this game had tanks that were playable?!! Do you use vr? Steering wheel? This is amazing!
This is a dlc or extension for il-2 sturmovik, now is early acces in sturmovik website
With proper infantry support around the Ferdinand was a beast on the open steppes of the Eastern Front
Thing was a sniper against Russian tanks. The ones that worked in Kursk supposedly had like 25 to 1 kill ratio.
@@corylemons7242 more like a 30 to 0
Historically inaccurate. Did not break down 4 seconds into the video.

@@kaptainkrafter4130
The T-34 broke down a lot more than any German vehicle ever did
@@johnhighway9397 That may be true, but the T-34 was designed to be repaired or easily replaced. That's why they made so many spare parts for it.

About 88 of these were used in Kursk,About 70% were lost . The tank is useless without mg,s for infrantry,most of them were overun and destroyed

people love to make memes about it but numerically, this tank has the highest tank kill per unit of the entire war
for the Germans atleast, it was arguably the best tank killer they had. 10:1 kill ratio
I think you got the types mixed up here... The best tank killer was in WWII the Sturmgeschütz! Better than Panther, Tiger and the rest...

The thing had engine issues - not powerfull enough and it had no machineguns which made it easy pickings for enemy infantry

22:35 just like a sub... gotta clear baffles to make sure no one behind you ! 😆😉😂😜🇺🇸❤️
Btw, this is not an “Elefant” this is a “Ferdinand”. You can tell by the lack of a hull ball mounted MG.
