- The BATRAC Matilda Mk IIa* Infantry tank on maneuvers at Oberon NSW in June 2015. Its a little long but if you like Matilda Tanks, Enjoy. Filmed by a very wonky camera operator !,
what a beautiful machine, well done lads.
Just needs an accurate paint scheme. Not the historically inaccurate bright blue striped scheme seen on the museum tank though. That baby blue should be more gray in tint.
@@HighlanderNorth1 There is a game called War Thunder where they have used the correct colours for the desert camo

✅ Thanks. I actually tried out War Thunder in 2017, but didn't progress very far due to a complete lack of patience of having to spend thousands MORE hours trying to get good at ANOTHER tank game, after I'd already spent 5,500 games worth of time trying to get good at World of Tanks. Thats not to mention having either burned up, or broken two $400 - $550 laptops in 2 years while playing WOT.
I quit WOT completely in 2017. But about 2.5 years ago, I downloaded World of Warships Blitz on my smartphone just for the helluvit, thinking it would suck and then I'd quickly delete it. But its actually really good! I've become better at WOWS Blitz than I was at WOT. Now I've got a 65.9% win rate, versus my highest WOT win rate of 56%. It takes lots of practice and patience to get good, but its a really good game. I haven't yet tried the PC or console versions of WOWS, but I will eventually.....
@@HighlanderNorth1 I actually tried to play as the Matilda today and it's a miserable experience as she's been placed at too high a battle rank (or rather other tanks have been placed too low). As much as the tank model looks STUNNING and I can add the appropriate decals, it's just not a great tank in the game when against superior vehicles that it shouldn't be up against in the first place! I have never played WOT but I have heard about World of Warships being good. I do enjoy the grind in War Thunder and I have managed to only spend about £20 on the game so far which for me isn't an issue. The amount of vehicles and the ability to see your shell penetrate your enemy in the upper right corner (it shows an X-Ray view) are both extremely satisfying.
My dad, Graham Dent was with 2nd 4th in Bouganville. Very proud to be his son. Great to see the tilly running. Thanks
Wow the sound of the engine is amazing, congratulations on the job!
Such a beautiful tank! One of my favorites
Great looking tank and more than a match for the German tanks at the start of WW2
Very, very well made restoration! It's a pleasure to see the Queen of the Desert rolling through the countryside.
She's a tough old girl, bless her.
Waltzing Matilda... :-)
I cannot watch a Matilda tank too long!
I love A 12 so much !! I play her in warthunder ( videogame which brought me here) despite the fact i always got uptiered ! Remember slow and steady wins the race!
I love the not-polished not-a-museum-tank looks!
Twice as long would have been too short!
Well done, on bringing another British tank to life.
..
Beautiful to see that tank still running
Faster tank than I thought
That’s what I thought
Well yes, moving is faster than stationary.
Love the Matilda.
Fantastic sound! Nice and smooth driving as well.
You Legend. Great to see.
Wow. Great job. Such a hugely important tank. Who knows how many troops would have been rescued from Dunkirk without it ? Certainly a lot fewer.
First chance I've had to see this gracious lady in action - thanks! 👍
Wow - well done. It commands a presence even now! Great sound too.
A terrific beast
awesome matilda!
Amazing to think of these old girls rumbling all the way from the Nile delta through to Tunisia, hunting the Axis forces all the way. Amazing !
'Hunting' huh, more like waiting for the americans to show up since the french couldn't help you anymore...
@@JonesDawg : In North Africa... ?
Go learn your WW2 history, idiot.
Jones Dawg what a Pipe.
A lovely old tank :D
OMG I had a grin from ear to ear watching this video bloody AWESOME !
Great job! Congrats from Poland(Europe);-)
Фантастично! вы - молодцы, браво!
Nice one. I had to start it again with better headphones! That sound is glorious! 😊 Cheers.👍
Nice sounding engine.
What a beautiful machine, if only many of this were in France in 1940, the war could have gone a different course.
Complimenti stupendooooo bel carro armato bel video
This paint job looks so much better than the fake blue Bovington Matilda.
That's awesome, ripper job! I'd happily pay money to have a ride or drive!
3 Dude's from the Africa Corps gave this a Dislike lol
Great Sound!
Just smashing 👍🏻👍🏻
Need to give it a western Desert paint scheme a real piece of history right there ! do you know its History ie where it served ?
I didn't know they went that fast.
You guys have done some brilliant work bringing this old girl back to life. Was this Matilda originally built in Oz?
G'day Tim , No Matilda's were built in Australia they all came from England
Thanks for the info. Is the turret operable at the moment or is it a work in progress?
It Operates Manually , its just easy for the driver to get in and out in that position.
Thanks. Looks like a lot of fun trundling around the countryside in one of those. It makes great sound too.
Well done. Marvelous video.
Looks like first gear is a real hill climber
Is that a waltzing Matilda?
Great well done on the restoration. If I come to visit can I have a drive. Will pay, maybe you can make some cash like this, plenty of open space, controlled tuition. Anyway, well done. Are there many Matilda's in Australia?
Hi, Australia has quite a few runners, around 10 in total but a few more been worked on at the moment. If your out our way give us a call
Matildas not Matilda's.
wow!!!!! Great video, well done gents
I wonder how long it would take (and how much fuel) it would take to cross the Nullarbor ? xD
8 gallons an hour @ around 12mph....
Ekevasat a kardokból! - én még emlékszem....azóta sem nyugzanak a fegyverek...ez nem jött össze...
Have they even fixed the "doorbell"?
nice
Nice big boy toy.
Exactly what ya need to go Yowie huntin!
Please guys keeps up vehicle running
do those tanks get used on ANZAC day?
why are matildas slow its not a heavy its medium
I want it
Yeeeahh i Like it wot blitz
God fancy coming up against a Panther or Tiger in that I'd abandon ship strait away
By the time Tigers were introduced, the British had almost entirely phased the Matilda out of service in the west. What the Matilda would be going up against were mostly various Italian tanks early war German tanks, (Pz. I, II, III and short barreled IV), early war German and Italian anti tank guns and Japanese tanks and anti tank guns, all of which had immense difficulty knocking out a Matilda.

Search for this video on Facebook..two matildas...
Best tank of 1940 unfortunately the best tank of 1941 the T34 showed how limited the Matilda II was.
My
What was wrong with the video camera or the cameraman?!!!!!
those continual sobs and tik-tak .. !!!! Pitty!
its a cheep camera, this is a low budget show
@@mattmcmahon4576 i think it was just a cheap comment.
Great job.
max 25 kmh haha
Lê Hiếu It was an Infantry Support Tank. It was designed to move with the Soldiers, not race around countering Armour.
Look at Cromwell or comet for speed though this had better armor I think
Fascinating to see. I wonder if a single more modern engine could be made to work with a Tilly
