  • A lone rifleman strikes fear into the hearts of the 750,000 invading Russians. The Finns should have been terrified, but the Finnish had something that the Russians didn’t, a humble farmer-turned-sniper named Simo Häyhä.
    He pulled his old gun out of storage and waited for the Soviets. The Winter War lasted roughly 100 days, in that time, Häyhä eliminated 505 soldiers, an average of over 5 a day.
    The Soviets gave him the name ‘White Death’ and he became the deadliest sniper in history.

    There is one Key factor that made Simo such an excellent shot and why it is unlikely there will ever be a sniper as good as he was. It's the fact that the M28 he used was his own personal weapon which he purchased from the army after his national service. As such he had hundreds if not thousands of hours with a single rifle as such he knew every minute detail and intracy of his weapon allowing him an unprecedented level of accuracy and consistency. Modern soldiers are given a rifle for a deplyoyment or for guard duty after which it goes back to the armoury. They may never see the exact same rifle again. So while they may be very competent with the rifle at a general level they never will be quite as familliar with a single rifle which will have tiny quirks due to minute differences in forging, barrel wear and part fit.

      @@TheDennys21 eh, i’d disagree. *Any* weapon can perform exceptionally, old or new. And yes, you can get aquatinted with a weapon easily, but some of the weapon’s quirks can take months or years to learn about, simply due to how subtle they may be.
      When I was a Weblos Scout in the Cub Scouts of America, back in 2009-2010, my parents bought me a basic compound bow, a foam target (identical to the targets at summer camp), an armguard, a pair of lightweight shooting gloves, a plastic quiver, and 10 fiberglass, dullpoint (sport) arrows. In the summer, I’d set up the target in my backyard, and spend a few hours every weekend shooting. I did this for the next year or so, and then started to stop in 2011, after I crossed over into the Boy Scouts.
      Then, when I was a Second Class scout (roughly 3-4 years after i crossed over), I took the Archery merit badge during summer camp. The camp had compound bows, and we would shoot every day, as one of the requirements for the merit badge was to “qualify” (effectively, you had to get a certain number of points, based on where your arrows hit). Over the 5 days I spent at Summer Camp, I didn’t manage to qualify, as my arrows generally only landed in the outermost ring, or outside the target completely.
      A week later, my dad (the Scoutmaster of my troop) arranged for me to go back up to camp to have another shot at qualifying, this time with my equipment. I strapped the armguard and gloves on, slung my quiver on my shoulder (it was a back-worn quiver), picked up my bow, and fired the 8 arrows I’d brought (the number of arrows the requirement allowed) at the camp’s archery target.
      Of those 8 arrows, 1 landed in the outer ring, 5 landed in the innermost ring, and 2 were bullseyes; more than enough points to qualify. The only difference between the bows at camp and mine, was my familiarity with my bow.
      I still have that bow, my target, and those arrows today, but I don’t use them anymore. One of the arrows is actually mounted on my bedroom wall, next to my Eagle Scout medal.

      And what are the results? Did the Finns win? Despite the initial losses, the Red Army fulfilled the task set by the front completely. The impregnable "Mannerheim Line" combined in the west was taken, the border was moved beyond the Vyborg Bay.Resigned to the fact that the USSR promised and did so. On March 7, 1940, a Finnish delegation arrived in Moscow to ask for peace.On March 15, since all the conditions were met, the USSR agreed to sign it. In 1941, with the attack of Germany and the entire German coalition, everyone was there, from the Spaniards to the Norwegians, and even Japan. And the Finns decided to continue the war basely. Well, the results of this continuation were more than modest. And until 1944, the Froth line in this direction remained static. And on September 19, 1944, Finland, having learned that a powerful Red Army group was unfolding against it, decided to capitulate. And they began to accompany their German allies with pedals and bullets to Norway.
      Of course, I didn't do it so pretentiously. But it is historically true.😉

But out in the woods he seen to have the ability to see things that were out of place, even the smallest thing. Another thing he was great at was scanning a patch of clover and picking the ones with 4 leaves without even bending down. I think he got it from my grandfather who used to analyse aerial photographs during WW2.

      He wasn’t actually given a sniper rifle with a scope by the Finnish government. Thats just an assumption in the animation. They left out the scope from his gift rifle. There is picture of him receiving the rifle.
      It was a more modern updated rifle on the mosin design with updated sights among other things that the regular army was using (his gift was just a custom accurized sniper version). Simo prefered to use his own older rifle he had purhased from the civil guard almost 20 years earlier as he knew the weapon and its particular idiosyncrazies inside out. Any sniper will tell you that a intimately familiar rifle is more prefered than a slightly improved rifle that you must spend a lot of trigger time to get accustomed to. Especially as you have to make do with service ammo that you are issued and he went straight back to the front lines. When Simo was injured his rifle was lost in the field.
      And he was evacuated immediately after being shot. He was initially evaluated as a casualty at the field hospital were he was taken to and subsequantely spotted moving in the casualty line outside the tent. There are many minor discrepancies in the video like that.

    Almost night, a crimson horizon
    Painting thousand lakes red
    As your army approach form the east
    A hunter is switching his prey
    All alone, a man with his gun
    Wanders into the wild
    Tracks you down, you cannot hide
    Once he is onto your tail
    Enter the night
    A flash in the darkness
    White Death is heading your way
    The fear of his foes
    A hero at home
    Hundreds will fall by his gun
    You're in the sniper's sight
    The first kill tonight
    Time to die
    You're in the bullet's way
    The White Death's prey
    Say goodbye
    After the dawn when morning has broken
    Snow once white turned to red
    Blood red snow tells what happened last night
    A tale of a sniper is born
    Snow in his mouth hiding his breath
    He is steady at hand
    Eye to eye, target in sight
    The moment to fire has come
    Hundreds of kills
    A man and his rifle
    Embody the sisu of Finns
    Stay out of sight
    And cover your head
    When he pulls the trigger you're dead
    You're in the sniper's sight
    The first kill tonight
    Time to die
    You're in the bullet's way
    The White Death's prey
    Say goodbye
    {Insert guitar solo here}
    You're in the sniper's sight
    The first kill tonight
    Time to die
    You're in the bullet's way
    The White Death's prey
    Say goodbye
    You're in the sniper's sight
    Sniper's sight!
    You're his first kill tonight
    First kill tonight!
    Say goodbye, say goodbye
    Say goodbye!
    You will fall by his gun
    You're in the sniper's sight
    Sniper's sight!

    It's spring 1944 over the oilfields of Romania its a strategic location wich supplies 60 percent of the reichs crude oil and is vital to axis logistics. that's why the allies have it in their sights sworms of b17's are escorted by squadrons of p51 mustangs the catalac of the skies its an epic force but they are not expecting an easy ride as the cries of bandits goes out swarms of bf109's are spotted the p51 desperate tries to protect the slower b17's and a bitter dogfight ensues .a American pilot is going to score a kill on a 109 when another 109 opens up with cannon fire from just 100 yards the mustang doesn't stand a chance there is a an explosion as its last flight ends
    The pilot targets and trails another mustang another American plane is sent in flames to the ground. this particular pilot skill is noted by the Americans and eight mustangs team up to scream around him but the German is evading most of the fire with superb maneuvers and hard turns. but being chased in hard battle drinks fuel at an alarming rate .in the cockpit of the 109 a warning light has be going for some time now the german knows he won't make it back to base as the engine starts to splutter he bails out .one of the mustang pilot circles around on what looks like an attack run on the falling pilot but salutes and flashes past. the code of conduct among the knights of the air is not forgotten and in the receiving end of the salute is erich Hartmann the deadliest fighter ace of all time with 352 confirmed victories . He scored most of his victory against the Soviet.
