This is quite surprising, especially considering that another Axis/Anti-Comintern member was fighting a war against China, namely Japan.

What did the German Army think about the Japanese Army? There is a report from 1938 about the Japanese and Chinese performance and experiences in the Second Sino-Japanese War. It covers various topics like motorization and air-ground cooperation, but the concluding remarks about the Japanese Forces for an upcoming "Great War" ("großen Krieg") are especially interesting.

» Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mhv For a long time the 18th century was described as the age of "Limited War" or "Limited Warfare". Yet, there is quite some debate about this terminology, whereas Peter Browning notes that it was an age of Limited Warfare, but the war itself was not limited. Robert Citino and Dennis Showalter are less "generous" with the term. Problem is of course that every time's warfare is limited by its various economical, demographic and other restrictions. This short discussion on the term limited war also includes some characteristics on the 18th century in comparison to the Thirty Years War and the Napoleonic Era. »» SUPPORT MHV «« » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mhv » paypal donation - https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=TFHEY4P4YU3NY » Book Wishlist https://www.amazon.de/gp/registry/wishlist/3LJIXNJIUXJES/ref=cm_wl_huc_view »» MERCHANDISE - SPOILS OF WAR «« » shop - https://www.redbubble.com/people/mhvis/shop »» SOCIAL MEDIA «« » minds.com - https://www.minds.com/militaryhistoryvisualized » facebook - https://www.facebook.com/milhistoryvisualized/ » twitter - https://twitter.com/MilHiVisualized » twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/militaryhistoryvisualized » RallyPoint - https://www.rallypoint.com/organizations/military-history-visualized » tumblr - http://militaryhistoryvisualized.tumblr.com/ Military History for Adults is a support channel to Military History Visualized with a focus personal accounts, answering questions that arose on the main channel and showcasing events like visiting museums, using equipment or military hardware. » SOURCES « Showalter, Dennis: Frederick the Great.

Recently some people got offended, because I called the Bismarck an advanced warship for 1940. In the video: Why the Bismarck didn't shoot down any of the Swordfish: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PTO3JagV8gE The Intro line of the video was: "The German battleship Bismarck was one of the most advanced warships at its commission, yet during its first operation it was struck critically by Fairey Swordfish bi-plane bombers, which look quite archaic and old-fashioned." In this episode Justin (Master in Military History) and I will discuss the statement and several aspects around Warship Construction, Naval Warfare, Context, Ship Classes like Iowa, Yamato, North Carolina, Treaty regulations and all the other stuff that matters.

Recently we were invited to the Museum Keltenwelt Frög in Austria. And one of the question we asked was about Celtic Warfare, since there are quite some myths and misconceptions out there. The specific question from one of my patreons was: Is the idea that the Celts fought with no formations at all as individuals overstated or the truth? Whenever I come across the Celts fighting Rome the Celts are always described as being a bunch of half naked guys in blue paint seeking out individual combat which was fine when they surprised and Zerg rushed the Romans but not if the Romans were properly ready in formation. It might be nice to hear an experts view on this.

The First Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895) is rarely covered, yet it is crucial for understanding the Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905) and the Second Sino-Japanese War. In this video we look at the underlying causes, like the weakness of China, the Rise of Japan, the Westernization of Japan, the importance of Korea and the Russian Trans-Siberian Railroad. Additionally, a short overview on the course of the war on the sea and on land will be covered. A short discussion on both the Chinese and Japanese shortcomings will be followed by the terms of the treaty, the following Western Invervention and finally the long-term implications of the Japanese Victory and the weakening of China.

Appeasement before the Second World War is often regarded as a completely failed strategy. Additionally, Neville Chamberlain is often portrayed as the sole scapegoat.

Logistics in Medieval Warfare played a key role, although for a long time there was a view that there were no proper logistical system in the "Dark Ages", this has been largely debunked. Since large army operated for extended periods in enemy territory and we also have quite a paper trail in some cases. This video also covers the benefits and drawbacks of pack animals, carts and wagons. The difference between stall-feeding and grazing. The importance of militias and magnates. As well, as the basic differences to the Roman Empire and food requirements for men and beast.

Who was the most unsuccessful German General in the Wehrmacht in the Second World War? A name that probably doesn't come to mind is General der Infanterie Georg Thomas. He was one of the key figures when it came to "war economic" (Wehrwirtschaft). He was one of the few officers that are sometimes called "economic professionals" or "logistics guys". Due to the operational minded German Army, he faced a lot of opposition, yet, not only from the regular officers. Thomas was an advocate of "Tiefenrüstung", whereas the operational minded generals favored a "Breitenrüstung" to achieve parity with the enemies as fast as possible.

How close was a breakout of World War II in 1938? This is not an unlikely scenario at all. If we look at the Sudeten Crisis, Hitlers willingness to go to war (or was he just bluffing?) and why he backed down. We also look at why Hitler backed down, the chances of Czech Forces, the German plans "Fall Grün" (Case Green) for the invasion and their plans to deal (or not) with France and the United Kingdom by building up the "Westwall" (Siegfried Line).

The Northern Wars (1558-1721) saw the rise of Russia (Muscovy) as a major European Power and the Fall of Swedish Empire. Generally, there is quite a debate what constitutes a Northern War, for the First Northern War there are according to Frost at least 3 contenders, whereas Wikipedia states 5. As you can see it is a bit complicated. The Great Northern War is probably the best known due to Carolus Rex (Charles XII), who got a bit more famous recently due to Sabaton naming an album after him (2012). This video describes the 4 major powers: Denmark-Norway, Kingdom of Sweden, Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and the Tsardom of Russia/Muscovy, there respective goals, strengths and weaknesses.

Or was the issue that the US government and/or the military failed? Usually, some blame the government, whereas others blame the military, yet, there are also some that note that the war could not be won at all, since the resolve of North Vietnam was too strong and South Vietnam too corrupt. Others point out the failed attrition strategy, the weak combat to support ratio (foxhole ratio), the willingness to limit destruction, rotation policies, etc. Thank you to Ken, Phil & Jack for sending me books from my wishlist that were used - yet not harmed - during the production of this video. »» SUPPORT MHV «« » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mhv » paypal donation - https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=TFHEY4P4YU3NY » Book Wishlist https://www.amazon.de/gp/registry/wishlist/3LJIXNJIUXJES/ref=cm_wl_huc_view »» MERCHANDISE - SPOILS OF WAR «« » shop - https://www.redbubble.com/people/mhvis/shop »» SOCIAL MEDIA «« » minds.com - https://www.minds.com/militaryhistoryvisualized » facebook - https://www.facebook.com/milhistoryvisualized/ » twitter - https://twitter.com/MilHiVisualized » twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/militaryhistoryvisualized » RallyPoint - https://www.rallypoint.com/organizations/military-history-visualized » tumblr - http://militaryhistoryvisualized.tumblr.com/ Military History NOT Visualized is a support channel to Military History Visualized with a focus personal accounts, answering questions that arose on the main channel and showcasing events like visiting museums, using equipment or military hardware. » SOURCES « Disclaimer: I received a complementary copy of The U.S. Naval Institute on Vietnam: A Retrospe

Quite often on my World War 2 Submarine Warfare videos people ask me why the u-boats didn't sink first the escort ships and afterwards attack the merchant ships.

The Great Torpedo Scandal around the Mark 14 is considered by some as one of the biggest scandals in the history of modern warfare. What were the teething problems of the Mark 14 Torpedo and the Mark 6 Exploder? Was the issue blown out of proportion? Is it overly hyped? The torpedo was plagued by deep running, premature explosions of the magnetic proximity fuse and finally a sometimes ineffective contact exploder. Yet, how much influence did it have on the war against the Imperial Japanese Navy? »» SUPPORT MHV «« » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mhv » paypal donation - https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=TFHEY4P4YU3NY » Book Wishlist https://www.amazon.de/gp/registry/wishlist/3LJIXNJIUXJES/ref=cm_wl_huc_view »» MERCHANDISE - SPOILS OF WAR «« » shop - https://www.redbubble.com/people/mhvis/shop »» SOCIAL MEDIA «« » minds.com - https://www.minds.com/militaryhistoryvisualized » facebook - https://www.facebook.com/milhistoryvisualized/ » twitter - https://twitter.com/MilHiVisualized » twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/militaryhistoryvisualized » RallyPoint - https://www.rallypoint.com/organizations/military-history-visualized » tumblr - http://militaryhistoryvisualized.tumblr.com/ Military History NOT Visualized is a support channel to Military History Visualized with a focus personal accounts, answering questions that arose on the main channel and showcasing events like visiting museums, using equipment or military hardware. » SOURCES « Milford, Frederick J : US NAVY TORPEDOES.

The Tactics of the Wehrmacht and Red Army during the Battle of Stalingrad were quite different, since both sides faced very different problems. The Soviets mainly occupied with delaying the Germans focused on smaller unit tactics, whereas the Germans tried to clear block by block. Wheras the Germans had stronger support by the Luftwaffe, the Soviets possessed more artillery.

Logistics in warfare are of great importance, especially on the Eastern Front in World War 2 due the vast distances and low infrastructure involved. The question is how did the Soviets manage their logistics in such a "low tech" environment.

Which one was the better tank the Panzerkampfwagen Ausführung D or the French S-35 Somua tank? We look at firepower, armor protection, ergonomics, visibility, mobility and communications. Additionally, a short discussion on why the Panzer III E and Char B1 bis are not used in comparison. The video includes visuals and also footage from the Tank Fest 2018. Nick's original question: Given that your most recent video touches on the Tactical/Technical differences of the Panzer III and the T-34, my curiosity was peaked in regards to other tank comparisons. My question is this: which tank out of the British Expeditionary Forces and the French Army was the most comparable or the biggest threat to the Panzerwaffe during the invasion of France in 1940? »» SUPPORT MHV «« » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mhv » subscribe star - https://www.subscribestar.com/mhv » paypal donation - https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=TFHEY4P4YU3NY » Book Wishlist https://www.amazon.de/gp/registry/wishlist/3LJIXNJIUXJES/ref=cm_wl_huc_view »» MERCHANDISE - SPOILS OF WAR «« » shop - https://www.redbubble.com/people/mhvis/shop »» SOCIAL MEDIA «« » minds.com - https://www.minds.com/militaryhistoryvisualized » facebook - https://www.facebook.com/milhistoryvisualized/ » twitter - https://twitter.com/MilHiVisualized » twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/militaryhistoryvisualized » RallyPoint - https://www.rallypoint.com/organizations/military-history-visualized » tumblr - http://militaryhistoryvisualized.tumblr.com/ Military History NOT Visualized is a support channel to Military History Visualized with a focus personal accounts, answering questions that arose on the main channel and showcasing events like visiting museums, using equipment or military hardware. » SOURCES « Zaloga, Steven J.: French Tanks of World War II (1) – Infantry and Battle Tanks.

The Battles for the Rzhev Salient are usually only covered "on the side" when it comes to Eastern Front both in Soviet/Russian and German literature. This of course raises the question: Why? Of course, some note ideological reasons, yet at a closer look this does explain some aspects of it, yet does not really hold at all for the German side.

The Germans had serious plans and done quite a lot of preparations for an attack on Leningrad in 1942, usually this topic is brushed aside as a side-show. Yet, Adrian Wettstein in his phd "Wehrmacht im Stadtkampf" (Wehrmacht in Urban Combat) clearly shows that the amount of preparation was far from minor and that even units from Heeresgruppe Süd that was headed for Stalingrad and the Caucasus (Case Blue) were redeployed. Manstein's 11th Army was replenished and almost up to authorized strength in stark contrast to other divisions. Additionally, a lot of artillery was brought in from all over the Reich, as such the "artillery fest" at Leningrad outmatched that of the Siege of Sevastopol. »» SUPPORT MHV «« » paypal donation - https://paypal.me/mhvis » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mhv » subscribe star - https://www.subscribestar.com/mhv » Book Wishlist https://www.amazon.de/gp/registry/wishlist/3LJIXNJIUXJES/ref=cm_wl_huc_view?language=en_GB »» MERCHANDISE - SPOILS OF WAR «« » teespring - https://teespring.com/stores/military-history-visualized » redbubble - https://www.redbubble.com/people/mhvis/shop » SOURCES « Wettstein, Adrian E.: Die Wehrmacht im Stadtkampf 1939-1943.

We need to re-examine our view of the Red Army in the Winter War (1939-1940). The traditional narrative is that the Red Army failed in the Winter War, yet, this is only partially correct. We need to take a look at the bigger picture, namely at the effectiveness of the Red Army dealing with severe losses and various problems without collapsing. This allows for a better understanding of the Red Army's performance in Operation Barbarossa (1941) and the war on the Eastern Front in general.

When speaking with Dr. Roman Töppel he mentioned a very interesting detail about a major problem the Panzerwaffe endured during the War.

Yet, Gehlen was extremely successful from transitioning from World War 2 to the Cold War.

The US and British leadership in the Second World War followed the so called “Europe First” or sometimes called “Germany First” strategy, meaning that there was a focus on defeating Germany first and after that focus against the Japanese in the Pacific. Many of the US military leaders were not particularly happy about this arrangement between Roosevelt and Churchill. Additionally, if we look closer, in practice it was not “Germany First” but “Italy first”. Cover Design by vonKickass.

Now, when it comes to Western Allied Invasion of France in Normandy, June 1944, quite some time is usually spent on discussions why the Germans did get the landing area wrong, namely assuming an invasion at Pas de Calais instead of Normandy. Yet, I think we should take more extended look at the whole situation, for this we need an expanded timeframe and also a look at map that shows on how much coastlines were still under Axis possessions even in May 1944. As you can see that was quite a lot of territory that needed to be covered. Now, if we look at the situation in Summer & Fall 1943, there are several issues.

One key problem the United States faced in the Vietnam war was that the enemy was focused mostly on irregular warfare, whereas the US forces were mainly trained to fight in regular war. Although, the Vietnamese were supported by the Soviet Union and Communist China with weapons and sometimes high-tech equipment in general, they were using a “low-tech approach”. This was in stark contrast to the United States that often brought high-technology to the battlefield. And in this video, we will talk about such an approach, namely the use of a high-tech sensor network to interrupt the North Vietnamese supply route into South Vietnam, better known as the Ho Chi Minh Trail. »» SUPPORT MHV «« » paypal donation - https://paypal.me/mhvis » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mhv » subscribe star - https://www.subscribestar.com/mhv » Book Wishlist https://www.amazon.de/gp/registry/wishlist/3LJIXNJIUXJES/ref=cm_wl_huc_view?language=en_GB »» MERCHANDISE «« » teespring - https://teespring.com/stores/military-history-visualized » SOURCES « Deitchman, Seymour J.: The “Electronic Battlefield” in the Vietnam War.

An old repeated story is that the Wehrmacht was successful when the German generals were in command, yet once Hitler took over everything went down the drain. This narrative is especially prevalent in the memoirs of the German generals, which were and are repeated over and over again. The question is, how valid is this view? After all, it seems too simple to be true. Dr. Roman Töppel, who is one of the 4 co-publishers of the critical of "Mein Kampf" explains his findings and views here.

So, on my Hedgerow Tactics video, some people asked, why the US did not just use flamethrowers to burn down the hedgerows.

So, we got a nice Oberst question from Northfield. Namely, "Why was Aerial Interdiction so effective on the Western Front [in 1944]?" First off, a short definition on what aerial interdiction usually called just interdiction in this video is. Simply put it is about about isolating the enemy forces from supplies and reinforcements. Why Aerial Interdiction was so much more effective on the Western front than on the Easter Front in 1944 »» SUPPORT MHV «« » paypal donation - https://paypal.me/mhvis » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mhv » subscribe star - https://www.subscribestar.com/mhv » Book Wishlist https://www.amazon.de/gp/registry/wishlist/3LJIXNJIUXJES/ref=cm_wl_huc_view?language=en_GB »» MERCHANDISE «« » teespring - https://teespring.com/stores/military-history-visualized » SOURCES « Dick, C.

Now, one common joke about the Wehrmacht is that their logistics were bad, especially when it comes to Operation Barbarossa. And this is usually explained with the lack of trucks, hubris and other aspects. Yet, I think, that this view is might be a bit too simple and does not encompass the whole situation.

So, when I was talking to Ralf Raths (Director of the Panzermuseum Munster) about Panzerdivisions, he noted that the British actually invented the Panzerdivision long before the Germans. So, let's hear what he has to say on this and some other matters. Special thanks to vonKickass for thumbnail design improvements.

Dr. Roman Töppel addresses the question if the Germans had the chance of an operational breakthrough after the Battle of Prokhorovka, which was part of the Battle of Kursk (Operation Zitadelle). "I've heard arguments that there was a reasonable chance for an operational breakthrough after prokhorovka, given the damage to Rotmistrov's tank army and Rodimtsev's corps in the actions surrounding Prokhorovka. What is Dr. Toppel's opinion regarding German operational potentials in this situation, and what potential ramifications do you think this might have had? From my understanding the present orthodox American historiography is that the Germans had little to no chance of meaningful success, however I found myself unable to meaningfully comment when it was challenged. I'd love to see your commentary!" »» SUPPORT MHV «« » paypal donation - https://paypal.me/mhvis » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/mhv » subscribe star - https://www.subscribestar.com/mhv » Book Wishlist https://www.amazon.de/gp/registry/wishlist/3LJIXNJIUXJES/ref=cm_wl_huc_view?language=en_GB »» MERCHANDISE «« » teespring - https://teespring.com/stores/military-history-visualized » SOURCES « Töppel, Roman: Kursk 1943.

In 1944 the Imperial Japanese Army startet the largest military operation in it's entire existence, Operation Ichigo. Yet, very few people know about it or even heard of it. Which is just absurd considering the size of the opeartion, yet even more so, since it changed Post-War Asia in a tremendous way.

In this video we talk about a major theater commander that was until recently portrayed in a very positive light that was almost "saint like". Yet, the recent historiography with access to newly available archives is not so positive about him, quite on the contrary.

Although the Sherman with 76mm gun was clearly a better at fighting other tanks, most tankers actually preferred the 75mm gun Sherman. Yet, why?

The "Ostwall" (Oder-Warthe-Bogen) is quite forgotten, there are many reasons for this.

In Summer 1940 the Wehrmacht was able to beat the French Forces in a matter of 6 weeks, this was quite surprising not only to the Germans, but also the rest of the world, especially the United States of America.

In Fall 1939 the Wehrmacht had defeated the Polish Forces rather quickly, yet the German Army High Command (OKH) was not particularly happy about the overall performance of the Army.

So, what did the British think about the Japanese Army from before the Second World War started? This is of particular interest, since the British suffered a humiliating defeat by the Japanese Army in the Malayan Campaign (1941-1942), which lead to the fall of Singapore (1942). This video looks at major events that shaped British Views on the Imperial Japanese Army (IJA), namely the Shanghai Incident (1932) and the Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945).

The "Dora" also known as the "Schwerer Gustav" was the largest gun ever built in terms of weight (not caliber). It was originally designed to be used against the French Maginot-Line, but was not ready in May 1940. As such it was used in the Siege of Sevastopol by General Manstein. Yet, later on, it was not used again. Jens Wehner and I discuss various other aspects of the "Dora" gun in this video.

On my Pacific War videos I quite regularly get comments of people suggesting the Japanese should have invaded Pearl Harbor (Oahu) and/or the Big Island (Hawaii) in the initial surprise attack on 7th December 1941. We look at Japanese chances for an invasion of Pearl Harbor, the Pearl Harbor Defenses, Japanese plans and planning for an invasion, the Imperial Japanese Army's and Navy's capabilities to conduct such operations. Their actual experiences, e.g., Wake Island and many other aspects like landing ships. »» SUPPORT MHV «« » paypal donation - https://paypal.me/mhvis » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/join/mhv » subscribe star - https://www.subscribestar.com/mhv »» MERCHANDISE «« » teespring - https://teespring.com/stores/military-history-visualized » SOURCES « Stephan, John J.: Hawaii Under the Rising Sun: Japan’s Plans for Conquest After Pearl Harbor.

“I know this is a sensitive issue, but it still bugs me and I have never been given an adequate answer. If Britain and France had guaranteed the military support of Poland, were they not also bound to declare war on the USSR, who invaded the other half of Poland, [more than two weeks later]*? Since this is not a strictly military history subject, that delves into politics as well, I will completely understand if you will not answer this.” *The original quote had a minor error that the poster himself corrected in a follow-up comment for simplicity I corrected it in the original quote.

Patreon & Subscribestar Supporter Questions: “So an interesting tit bit came my way through the excellent 'we have ways' podcast. France had a reasonably high per capita number of cars and hence a robust infrastructure to support this. So when France was invaded Germany could use this to the Blitzkrieg advantage. In comparison Russia had a low car number (when you compare to size of its territiory), which would have been a contributing factor to the difficulty of invasion. Do you have other interesting logistic tit bits that had a very important but rarely disscussed effect on the war? “ “A topic I struggle to find a meaningful amount of information is the naval aspect of the german-soviet war in wwII. Although this may be beyond the scope of this q&a, I would greatly appreciate some insight into this topic or references to sources you consider to be of solid quality. Thanks, really enjoying your work. “ “Modern topics, again. When? And Cold War as well!” “I've visited a number of WW1 sites in France over the years (Verdun, Arras, etc) and noticed the bulk of visitors and even small memorials (Fort Douaumont) are German. As a German speaker (not German, I understand) can you understand why this may be? I don't have statistics to prove anything - - just anecdotal evidence.” “What do you think of Heinrici, he did hold hundreds of km during Case Blue with just a few divisions & many other instances. I think he was the finest defensive tactician of WW2 & much under-rated - would you agree? Also, what do you think of his plan to strip Berlin of it's garrison (only partly successful thanks to Goebbels et al) & try to hold the Oder-Neisse line as long as he could, hoping that a stalemate would cause the Allies to cross the Elbe? With hindsight he was dead wrong but at the time do you think this was a not-crazy idea, given his resources & the political climate? Or should he have made a token resistance & saved the Ninth Army from destruction? Thanks, Brian”
Why Artillery for the Infantry, particularly why the leichtes Infanteriegeschütz 18 (light infantry (support) gun 18). In this video Jens Wehner and I talk about the infantry support guns, particularly about the leichte Infanteriegeschütz 18 of the Military History Museum Dresden.

Were there any memorials of General Paulus of the 6th Army in Germany during or after the war? Patreon Question: “2) I have heard that, for propaganda, Paulus'6th Army being destroyed at Stalingrad was sold to the public as a heroic sacrifice to buy time for von Kleist and Manstein et al to escape "a trap" to the south in the Crimea, and he was portrayed as a hero. Googling has led me nowhere -s are there any existing monuments or statues or memorials to the "hero" Paulus still around today?

Did the Leopard 1 break with the Panzer Tradition of the Big Cats namely the Tiger and Panther? Or did he continue the tradition of the Panzer III and IV? In this video Jens Wehner (MHM Dresden) and I discuss the various perspectives and also the factors that made the Germans choose Mobility and Firepower for the Leopard 1 instead of Armor Protection, since that comes down to various factors like technology and doctrine at the time. Also included is footage from Stahl auf der Heide 2019 of Panzer III & IV and of course the Leopard 1 during Tankfest 2019 as well. Cover design by vonKickass.

Aircraft vs. Tanks is an interesting subject, since there are quite many myths and misconceptions out there on the overall effectiveness. Current research indicates that the effect of aircraft was rather limited, at least when it came to actual "kills". Yet, the effect on morale is also crucial and harder to quantify. In this video Dr. Roman Töppel discusses these aspects. »» SUPPORT MHV «« » paypal donation - https://paypal.me/mhvis » Patreon Perks » patreon - https://www.patreon.com/join/mhv » subscribe star - https://www.subscribestar.com/mhv » Book Wishlist https://www.amazon.de/gp/registry/wishlist/3LJIXNJIUXJES/ref=cm_wl_huc_view?language=en_GB »» MERCHANDISE «« » teespring - https://teespring.com/stores/military-history-visualized » SOURCES « Töppel, Roman: Kursk 1943.

I very often state "there were multiple factors" in this video I talk about how extremely shortsighted mono-causal explanations can be. I make various examples from military history, but also a very simple one regarding a simple diet change (one food replaced with another sub-variant of that food, namely brown rice vs. white rice) that was influenced by so many factors that I was previously not aware of. This is the reason, why I get very suspicious if I hear "the sole reason", especially when it comes to historical actors especially if we talk about large factions with millions of members. We also talk about Panzer and Diesel engines (or the lack thereof) and various other topics.

German Beutewaffen (literally "loot weapons" but more meaningful "captured weapons") are often a topic of discussion and/or fascination for many people. Yet, the question is, why all those Beutewaffen in the first place? What were the reasons? For This, we talk with Jens Wehner from the Militärhistorisches Museum der Bundeswehr Dresden (MHM Dresden) while standing in front of Infanterieschlepper UE 630 (f), which was originally called Renault UE Chenillette by the French, but repurposed by the Wehrmacht for their own use.

In November 1939 the Red abolished its 4 tank corps. Why did they do this? Especially, considering that the Wehrmacht’s Panzer Divisions were instrumental in defeating the Polish forces in September 1939. For this we take a look at the broader historical context, namely the massive expansion of the Soviet Tank Arm in 1930s, the Spanish Civil War, the battles of Lake Khasan and Khalkhin Gol, the experience in Poland 1939 and other elements. The cumbersome tank corps argument is also discussed.

The PTRS-41 or Simonov anti-tank rifle was the semi-automatic analog of the single-shot PTRD-41 anti-tank rifle. Soviet Anti-Tank rifles like the PTRS 41 created some trouble for the German Panzers, this is clearly reflected by the introduction of the so-called “Schürzen” Armor Skirts that protected the side hull and turret armor of most Panzers and Sturmgeschütze. This video covers the basic mechanics and parts of the PTRS-41 and also excerpts from a report about its early use.

Why did the Japanese attack the United States in December 1941? After all, the Japanese military and leadership were not unaware of the power of the United States.

The horse was very important for the German Military in the Second World War, the Wehrmacht had around 590 000 horses at the beginning of the war. Similarly, when the Wehrmacht invaded the Soviet Union in June 1941, it brought 600 000 motor vehicles, yet 625 000 horses as well. To get a better understanding, in this video we look at contemporary sources on horses and military horses, which produces some interesting insights. The main source are articles from the encyclopedia “Neuzeitliche Wehrwissenschaften” (Modern Military Sciences) that was published by a former general and contained a preface by General von Fritsch, who back then was the Commander in Chief of the German Army. Topics covered are general views on the horse, the military horse, breeding, self-sufficiency, requirements for the horse, officer's horse, certification, types of military horses, riding and experiences from the First World War. 00:14 – Operation Barbarossa – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQdjGJJktfk 00:48 – Guderian Myth & Reality – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTgf3UHMBjY 02:18 – Why Japan attacked the United States – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPn4mp6y-4w 10:27 – WW1 Playlist - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK09g6gYGMvU-0x1VCF1hgA Cover design by vonKickass. »» SUPPORT MHV «« » patreon, see videos early (adfree) - https://www.patreon.com/join/mhv » subscribe star - https://www.subscribestar.com/mhv » paypal donation - https://paypal.me/mhvis »» MERCHANDISE «« » teespring - https://teespring.com/stores/military-history-visualized » SOURCES « Franke, Hermann (Hrsg.): Handbuch der neuzeitlichen Wehrwissenschaften.

According to Soviet documents (Soviet General Staff Study) in the Battle of Kursk a mere 16 dogs destroyed ("blown up") 12 German tanks. I found this quite "interesting", so I took a closer look. So in this video we look closer at this effectiveness, for this we also look at German sources and other aspects as well of these "Minenhunde" (mine dogs) as the Germans called them.

The view on Italy and its contributions to the Axis in the Second World War are generally negative to very negative. To a certain degree this likely stems from a focus mostly on land warfare, as such I thought let us look at naval warfare. As such asked Drachinifel on his views on the subject. In this video we discuss the overall contributions of the Italian Navy (Regia Marina) to the Axis in WW2. What types of actions, how many enemy ships were sunk and what kind of troubles the created for the Royal Navy, British Forces and generally the Allies in the Mediterranean.

Flak Towers and politics, in this video we discuss the various potential problem when it comes to World War 2 history, memorials, buildings, etc. in Austria and Germany, and how dealing with it can be a bit tricky. A while ago someone noted that there were no signs around the Flak Towers in Vienna, in this video we explain why this could be case and particularly note a few examples with re-using the Flak Towers in modern times to illustrate our point.

Time to look at the Heeresversuchanstalt Kummersdorf, which means Army Research or Army Testing Facility, which was not only the home of the famous Maus Panzer, but also a key facility of the German Army in both world wars, when it came to weapon development and testing. Generally, Kummersdorf and its various facilities are shrouded in mystery. Likely the most academic and elaborate work up to today is from Günter Nagel and he notes about the Versuchsstelle Gottow (Testing facility Gottow) that has underground facilities and various unidentified ruins.

Armored Trains saw most of their action in the 19th and 20th century particularly in the First and Second World War. Yet, the question is, why used armored trains in the first place? For this we look at the strengths and weaknesses of armored trains. Furthermore, we also cover their requirements and missions. Cover design by vonKickass.

To understand why the Western Allies did not go for Berlin, it important to understand a) the positioning of the various armies and their ongoing operations b) the manpower situation in general, c) the specific manpower situation due to the ongoing war in the Pacific, d) that although the German Forces were mostly beaten, they still could inflict some damage, e) that in some areas public order had to be restored and f) that the Soviets were not limited to Berlin neither.

German veterans' statements about the Katyusha (also often called "Stalinorgel" / Stalin Organ) are numerous and at first quite contradicting. In this video we put them in context and compare the information with the information that is available to us, namely with various quotes from military historians as well. Since, there are some people that note that veterans "disprove"/contradict various points by historians or the other way round. Yet, for the most I disagree, the "contradiction" is mostly on a superficial level and/or a lack of context.

Time to look at German Ammo Recycling & Logistics. For this we look at a very specific document from 1944, but also at several army regulations and one Luftwaffe regulation. Namely, H.Dv. 90, H.Dv. 483 and L.Dv. 450. Original Question: "My question is as follows: Did the major powers in the European theater (US, UK, USSR, Germany) have standard operating procedures for recycling those piles of artillery shells we see in pictures from so many wars from WWI onward? Or was the metal just buried, or recycled or not recycled as a local commander saw fit?"

The Battle at Savo Island (1942) was a disaster for the US Navy, the question is why did it happen? A common explanation was that the US Navy was just bad at night fighting, but this seems a rather simplistic if not outright wrong assumption according to current research. After a short intro that provides the necessary context Trent Hone - author of Learning War - and Justin Pyke will discuss the various reasons for this major defeat in US Navy History.

What is it with Soviet Guards Armies, Corps, Divisions and other units in World War 2? Were the elite units? Was the title earned or just given? What about Guards Air units? Or the Katyusha units. Well, time to find out. First, although by the end of 1941 only 10 rifle divisions had earned the title , by the end of the war there were more than 100 Guards Rifle Divisions alone. But the Guards title was not limited to the infantry, there were also Guards Tank Divisions.

How did they conceptualize what night battles would look like?

Recently someone noted about the Japanese and then the Germans that they were just lucky about their early successes, well, this for me is just another oversimplification that is just wrong. We looked at the German side already. So in this video Justin Pyke (MA) and I address this whole issue in a little more detail with some very specific examples for the US Side as well. Definitions of Luck: “Success or failure apparently brought by chance rather than through one's own actions.” “Luck Is What Happens When Preparation Meets Opportunity."

In this video we interview the former tank driver - and now historian - Jens Wehner In this video Jens from the Military History Museum Dresden of the Bundeswehr. Some people often assume driving a tank is fun. So Jens talks about out the various problems he encountered during basic training and especially combat training. Furthermore, he explains why it is so much harder to drive a tank than a regular car.

When judging WW2 weapons one aspect is often ignored namely that nowadays we usually use ammo that is of better quality than what available during the war. This of course goes the other way round as well, basically using inferior ammo and than stating that the weapon was "bad", when it was actually an ammo problem. As always context is important. We also touch on the various problems the German Army had in World War 2 with ammo quality, supply and production. »» GET OUR BOOK «« » Army Regulation Medium Panzer Company 1941 - http://www.hdv470-7.com/ »» SUPPORT MHV «« » patreon, see videos early (adfree) - https://www.patreon.com/join/mhv » subscribe star - https://www.subscribestar.com/mhv » paypal donation - https://paypal.me/mhvis »» MERCHANDISE «« » teespring - https://teespring.com/stores/military-history-visualized » SOURCES « Bernhard R.

A look at Osttruppen (East / Eastern Troops), generally there were two different kinds of Osttruppen the Ost Bataillone (East / Eastern Battalions) and the Ost Legionen (East / Eastern Legions). We also briefly discuss "Hilfswillige / Hiwis" ("willing helpers" or auxiliaries). In this video, we look at different groups, history, numbers, deployment, effectiveness and postwar treatment.

What was the role of Germany in the Winter War / Russo-Finnish War (1939-1940)? Generally, it is rather absent in the portrayals, yet a closer look reveals that Germany was not as neutral. In various cases it took a rather pro-Soviet stance as well. This is related to the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact, but also due to Germans concern that the Allies might get a foothold in the North.

So, the question is, did the Germans ever call the Tiger II “Königstiger”? Since occasionally I get comments about the Königstiger, some people note that Germans never called it that way, whereas others ask if it shouldn’t be named Bengal Tiger, since the actual animal called Königstiger in German is a Bengal Tiger in English. This will be answered briefly at the end, if you make it that far, since we will take a look at various sources including some primary sources from the German Military Archives.

Soviet Anti-Tank Dogs, "Tankhunde" or "Minenhunde" as the Germans called them are often mentioned, yet the sources and claims are quite often very dubious for this reason in this video I looked at Soviet and German sources about these dogs, because they provide a better insight and tackle a few of the various claims aka the dogs went for Soviet tanks due to the diesel engine smell and/or sound, which seems to be mostly hogwash. »» GET OUR BOOK «« » Army Regulation Medium Panzer Company 1941 - http://www.hdv470-7.com »» SUPPORT MHV «« » patreon, see videos early (adfree) - https://www.patreon.com/join/mhv » subscribe star - https://www.subscribestar.com/mhv » paypal donation - https://paypal.me/mhvis »» MERCHANDISE «« » teespring - https://teespring.com/stores/military-history-visualized » SOURCES « Samsonov, Peter: Let Slip the Dogs of War, http://www.tankarchives.ca/2014/03/let-loose-dogs-of-war.html, translation of CAMD RF 38-11355-141, last accessed: 23rd March 2021.

How important was Italy for Germany, generally Italy is often dismissed as a partner to Germany, some go as far as noting that Germany would have better off in World War 2 without Italy. Although, if we want to take a proper approach we also must look at how Italy brought to the table, especially before the war. So in this video we look at the benefits Germany gained from its alliance with Italy. Map by Dan Kogosov.

In this video Dr. Bastiaan Willems Postdoctoral Fellow at the University College London and I discuss the war in East Prussia specifically in Königsberg in 1945. At this point of the war, the militarization of the German population reached a new level and it went "beyond the Volkssturm", now everyone was in some way involved in military service from kids to women.

Technically, Finland never joined the Axis. Yet, the Finns fought alongside the Axis against the Soviet Union from 1941-1944. Although some might see Germany and Finland as “natural” allies this was far less the case than some might suspect. There were various issues like politics, ideology and the recent Winter War where there some issues or strong disagreement, of course there was also some common ground.

In total about 1.3 million Austrians served in the Wehrmacht. Since the Wehrmacht recruited 17.3 Million men, this means about 7.5 % of the Wehrmacht soldiers were Austrians. Of course, technically during the Second World War, there was no Austria and Austrians were technically German citizen due to the "Anschluss" (1938).

I have two light American military vehicles. I have all of the manuals on pdf which is great, but sometimes there are errors. Do you have access to the original manuals and are they accurate? 2:20 Sina: Dicker Max influence on Nashorn? My question is how the combat trials of Dicker Max contributed to the development of Nashorn. More precisely, why did Dicker Max was canceled after 2 prototypes while around 500 Nashorns were built. Did they learn something from Dicker Max that they fixed in Nashorn? I think of the smaller caliber(but higher velocity) gun and more powerful engine but was there something else? 3:26 Bryan: Combat Effectiveness compared to the Marders? Was actual, versus theoretical, combat effectiveness gained versus the 75mm and 76.2mm Hummels [Marders]? The gun itself was more powerful, but some sources mention that mobility was worse. 6:37 Gerrit: Accurate restoration versus working/running restoration? I would be interested in the following question: Running tank or precise/accurate tank? What is the problem when working on a restoring? Do u try to keep as many original parts as possible? Where is the "red line" where u have to exchange an original element with a modern part? Does it have some impact (emotional for dropping an original part - ambition to keep as many original parts as possible?). Is there an "economical aspect" like "it is too expansive to keep the original part instate of a modern element that is cheap and easy to get?". Hope u get my point. Thx a lot. Gerrit 13:4
Was the Jaguar the Hetzer of the Cold War? The Jaguar was a dedicated anti-tank tank carrying anti-tank guided missiles (ATGM) of the Bundeswehr. In this video, Dr. Jens Wehner of the Military History Museum of the Bundeswehr in Dresden and I talk about the Jaguar, the Raketenjagdpanzer and the Kanonenjagdpanzer and why they were quite unique. Additionally, we also take about the influences of the Wehrmacht on Cold War equipment.

Why didn't the Germans encircle Stalingrad? A question by an Oberst (Supporter) “The Wehrmacht in the first couple years of the war as all about massive encirclements and 'bewegungskrieg'. I cant seem to find anywhere a reason why it was decided to attack Stalingrad directly and not cut it off like other cities (Kiev, Leningrad) or the 'cauldrons' during Barbarossa. The OKW and Hitler must have been aware about large cities being so difficult to take directly by force.” For this we look at various misconceptions, original directives, the development of the campaign and geography.
