@Christian Leitner You are right! But you forgot amount of T-34 before beginning the war... And secondly, Soviet people only win this war versus Germany and others countries of Europe! )
Interesting fact. Everyone talks about how the panzer 1 was originally meant to be a training tank, which I believed for the longest time. But then it was pointed out to me that, while the armor is thin, it is in fact made of actual hardened armor quality steel, and mounts actual guns instead of just sticks that look like guns. Granted none of those guns were armor piercing, but it wasn't yet considered a requirement that every single tank variant be able to fight other tanks (the early variant of the Vickers tank also mounted only MGs). The armor is just enough to stop 7.92mm steel core AP bullets at any range, meaning that is was clearly designed to withstand small arms fire. We even have documentation that the Germans had requested from their designers a tank to fill the roles of infantry support and recon, which resulted in the panzer 1. It was designed to fight, not just to be a training vehicle (although they were heavily involved the the development of German doctrine, and the Germans no doubt hoped to replace them with better tanks as soon as possible).
Didn't they actually fight in the Spanish civil war? To my knowledge they fought there against the Russian T-26 and saw that the T-26 heavily outclassed the Pz-1, because it had a 35 mm gun. That was the point when they realized that tanks need to be able to fight other tanks.
The were used in combat during the Spanish Civil War, but due to it being heavily outclassed the stopped production before the war and used them for training
People in England and and some European countries are so lucky to have this historic equipment in museums for all to see. There are some re-enactment groups in the US, but the cost to get these vehicles here is almost cost prohibited. It’s nice to see this, I wish I could in person.
@@russman3787 Are these "real" tanks anyway? I mean, are they authentic. I don't think there are much tanks left in original state. Most of them have chasis from other tanks etc.
@@russman3787 I know they are real tanks. I meant they are not authentic. In movies for e.g. they often use the chassi of a sherman or something and put paper on it, so it looks like a panther. Because there are not panthers anymore. And if, they are not authentic. Too many party are not from the real tank back in 1945.
@@silverfox9267 there's a difference though... many of these tanks are real world war II vehicles, not mock ups or replicas. And there are still several surviving Panthers.
hate how they cant really show the speed of these vehicles off since they take so long to repair and find parts, on top of the parts being very expensive
I think it’s because they wanna keep them in full original condition (except for the Panther, it has a different engine I think) They could however create a replica with modern materials but that would be very costly indeed
There's some pretty good footage on yt of another panther driving around a field of you do some digging. It does some pretty aggressive acceleration and some fast turret traversing as well. Gives you a better idea of the capabilities of these machines. Still doesn't get above 15mph though. Plus that one has its original maybach.
Si pudiera ir a Europa con mi padre, que es fanático de los panzers, a ver estos tanques, estaría en silencio justamente para apreciar toda la maniobra, el motor, los chirridos al cambiar de dirección. Después iría a la exposición estática dentro del museo a tocarlos y sentirlos.
Doesn’t matter how old a tank is, the tank is always designed for the same purpose, and whether or not it’s 70, 10 or 7 years old, it can still kill you.
Offcourse it isn't the original Maybach drive unit/train in it. If it where it wouldn't just stall, it would go up in flames and take 70% of the spectator crowd with it ...
+sander not really. The British got 5 factory new tanks of the latest panther after the war to run trials on them, built at the same factory they where built at during the war. None of them could complete trials as all of them broke down. They couldn't even cannibalize parts among the tanks. The test crew literally stated in the report they felt unsafe driving them.
Panzer 4's have a distinct clacking/noise in the wheels/tracks that can be heard a ways away. I bet that sound from 40 tanks at once or more must have been quite scary.
It didn't just look good, it had good mobility for a tank of that size at the time, and excellent armor and gun. Its only major weakness was the German tendency to make things mechanically complex which resulted in the Panther and Tiger, and Tiger 2 having reliability problems.
crazy how fast tanks had to evolve during WW2. They started off looking like toys and ended up with the basic profile of what we recognise as a modern tank.
Its not a basic profile. A "basic profile" Would be transmission, with a turret on top. Even the Panzer I had that. Tanks just got bigger and thicker, but their core design all stayed the same, and thats true for every country
Nice Guy Eddie It's true. But the German Army was like all armies, limited by certain Philosophical beliefs and strategic considerations. Also their soldier's morale get truly affected if the Russians produced a better tank. So they had to upgrade their design. We Americans always relied on our economic power to win (rightly so because we can) so it was not very demoralising for our troops even when they had to fight in the inferior Sherman. The Russians had even lower expectations....they were losing 20:1 in terms of casualties at the start of the war, where quite happy when they brought it down to 10:1, and by the end of the war they were happy to lose 4 Russians for every German killed. Expectations dictated the Germans had to place their bets on a superior design, instead of the economic design. Furthermore, being a smaller country German always knew it could not compete with a mass production strategy so it relied on quality to overcome its quantitative disadvantage.
Nice Guy Eddie Germans lost a whole army at Stalingrad because of Hitler's dogma to hold the city at all costs. No to forget the Italians, Hungarians and Romanians that were supporting the Eastern Front.

My dad served in the Navy in WWII in the Pacific. I have his captured Japanese rifle with the Emperor's seal still on it. His friend Arnie would come over and after a few drinks and me pestering them about the war, I would hear some horrible stories. Arnie was a 30 cal gunner in a Sherman in Patton's 3rd Army. He had engagements with the Panther, He said it was criminal to send our Sherman's against the German tanks. Their eyes and expressions would change and not in a good way when telling things. He said he saw too many of his fellow tankers "Butchered", I remember him saying how lucky that they never came across a Tiger which no Americans did. He said he saw 2 Panther V''s wipe out countless Sherman's. He also said thank god for our Artillery and Air force otherwise I would have never made it home.

It is very noticable the level of mobility of each tank. The Panzer I was running like a sport car, as well as the Panzer iv. But the panther, had to stop a few times and had a slow turn compaired to the previous ones.
For the Panzer IV, I'm debating with myself as to whether it is a G model or F2 model, I wanna say F2 but the barrel is giving me a G vibes, beautiful tank regardless, btw timestamps: 0:00 Panzer I 0:30 Panzer IV 2:10 Panther V
It is easy to laugh at the Panzer 1 but when you think of the horror of WW1 where the nightmare was open stretches of ground with barbed wire and machine guns were king.. the Panzer 1 makes total sense. Impervious to rifle or machine gun fire, able to roll over barbed wire and carrying two machine guns. Developed between the wars, the design was based on earlier needs, it was a useful tool for training and development of the doctrine of mobile combined forces that worked so well in the early years of WW2
The panther only had serious mechanical troubles in the summer and fall of 1943 after the battle of Kursk the problems were addressed and when the 2Nd block started finding their way onto the battlefield they were more reliable but that first generation of panthers really had problems with the transmission overheating and the suspension was supposed to be easier to fix in the field but that wasn’t the case .
Sources that they got better, and not dumb websites without getting accredited sources quoted, I want real sources like with the tiger " Thomas l jentz and hillary doyle's Tiger Tanks volume 1 Because from where I am standing, the Tiger was better in much much more
The Ausf. D was (oddly) the first to come out. Like software today version 1.0 is sometimes buggy. Especially when rushed. The Panther D was VERY rushed. The A & G were perfect though. Best tank of all time.
0:2 aww cute little blitzkrieg 0:36 here's come his onii-chan 2:53 THIS IS IT EVERYBODY!! BIG CAT'S COMIN'! TAKE YOUR SEAT AND ENJOY anyway no feeding the panther please, they're still wild cat
Fun fact During the entirety of WWII if you were to combine the entire numbers of Panzer IV's, Tiger 1's Panthers and Tiger II's Germany made those numbers would have STILL fallen way short of how many of only Sherman's America produced (45k+) now add all the Tank destoyers America made just the 50k T-34 Russia made AND last but not least all the tanks England made Germany never stood a chance
German tech was rather bleeding edge, even up to late war. They just didn't have the infrastructure to ensure the high quality control needed for such advanced technology and development.
Horses are amazing animals "Infantry and horse-drawn artillery formed the bulk of the German Army throughout the war; only one-fifth of the Army belonged to mobile panzer and mechanized divisions."
The panther tanks were the most accurate tank on the battlefield in World War II he could rip a Sherman to shreds it over two and a half miles would that 75 mm Cannon it was one of the best tanks on the battlefield next to the Tiger tank and the jagdtiger
_I read that they were even less reliable than today's mercedes cars_ The Panther production was rushed in a haste to get them to the battlefield as quickly as possible, among other things, for the 1943 summer offensive. Teething problems were abundant, although they were corrected to a large degree by mid 1944. Final drive was still an issue, and required trained drivers that treated the machine with care.
More than likely not a break down, you see this commonly with armored fighting vehicles when they are being paraded they just stop moving and it is almost always simply due to an inexperienced driver. A recent example would be last years victory day parade in Russia I think, where the new t14 armada stopped in the middle of the Red Square and it was due to the driver being very new.
Haha don´t be so harsh. It was just a little hiccup. This Panther doesn´t have the original engine, though. It is using a 500 HP V-8 instead of the original 690 HP V-12.
Richardsen hahaha, I was just kidding, the Panther itself is a wonderful tank, it sure had some problems related to lack of resources after 1943, but it did a great job
LFCookie The final drives were still delicate though which is why there was a governor installed. They used straight spur gears in the final drives which aren't suitable for high RPM + heavy load.

Это просто неизлечимые диванные ватники. Насмотрятся телевизора. И им не докажешь, что и наша техника также горела хорошо и сыпалась как современный автопром.
T-34 and the KV were way ahead of their time and great designs. If they had been used better with radios, well-trained crews and proper tactics they would have totally ruled over the germans.
Немецкие танки хорошие, пушки мощные и точные, оптика отличная. Но русские оказались лучше. Т-34 и ИС-2 танки победители. Надеюсь большой войны в Европе больше не будет.
@@Kuzneck ну у немцев танков тоже было достаточно >40 тысяч штук за войну наклепали, только Пантер 9 тыщ было. А если брать общие потери на фронте то потери были практически одинаковы. В 1941 кстати за 6 месяцев немцы потеряли столько де сколько за весь 1942, но начиная с 1943 действительно танков и самолетов у СССР было больше чем у немцев. Но не надо забывать, что в битве за Москву у немцев танков было раза в 3 больше (единственный случай за всю войну), но это им не помогло и сломали их, впервую очередь сибирцы и вновь сформированные отмобилизованные части, как пример дивизия Памфилова из казахов и узбеков сформированная уже после начала войны. А вообще немцам просто коллосально везло, большинство их побед прошло буквально на волоске от их разгрома, просто невероятное везение. Но оно оказалось не вечным и 5 миллионов их солдат закопаны советским солдатом.
Вова Н, никто точно не может сказать, что было на самом деле и сколько было жертв и потерь, каждая сторона тянет на себя победу, каждая сторона делает историю так, что бы они сами выглядели героями, и Америка и Россия, и Союзники в Европе, и Германия все они колбасят историю, архивы и "исправляют недочёты", где то числа подкрутят, где то что то переделают, поэтому не надо верить не им, не нам, все вокруг врут и это надо понимать............................
@@BOBA-H что это за дивизия ПаМфилова, первый раз о такой слышу? Да к тому же сформированная из узбеков и казахов? Правда знаю про 316 Панфиловскую дивизию, но она состояла на 67% из русских, 8% украинцев, 11% казахов, 11% киргизов и 3 % других народов СССР.
@@BOBA-H не 5 миллионов а 12 миллионов это официальные цифры потери только Германии + союзники не менее миллиона положили и это боевые потери только. К началу 1944 года у немцев и союзников перестало хватать солдат даже на оборону и они стали откатываться на запад

PANZER
PANTHER
Rustov railway: HOLD MY NUKES
Adorable Panzer of the lake what is your wisdom
PANZER : *IF* *YOU* *CALL* *ME* *ADORABLE* *ONE* *MORE* *TIME*
My dad served in the Navy in WWII in the Pacific. I have his captured Japanese rifle with the Emperor's seal still on it. His friend Arnie would come over and after a few drinks and me pestering them about the war, I would hear some horrible stories. Arnie was a 30 cal gunner in a Sherman in Patton's 3rd Army. He had engagements with the Panther, He said it was criminal to send our Sherman's against the German tanks. Their eyes and expressions would change and not in a good way when telling things. He said he saw too many of his fellow tankers "Butchered", I remember him saying how lucky that they never came across a Tiger which no Americans did. He said he saw 2 Panther V''s wipe out countless Sherman's. He also said thank god for our Artillery and Air force otherwise I would have never made it home.
Спасибо другу твоего отца! Который сражался вместе с моим дедом! Хоть и в другой армии!

1:00 if that was a H model, we're gold
Panther engine is a from Kanonenjagdpanzer 29,4l MTU MB 837 Aa V8 water-cooled multi-fuel diesel-engine
500 hp (368 kW)
Ah ok, thanks for the info
Kein Problem
Reden wir beim Panther nicht von einem Maybach V12 Benzin Motor? Gepaart mit einem leider grottigen Getriebe 😐🤔
It is a Maybach HL230,700hp since it is the same engine with the Tiger
The original engine is not build in, that's what they're trying to explain
Это круто. Всегда хотел услышать звук такой техники. Отличается от фильмов полностью.
А как выстрел отличается от киношного... земля и небо) Тем более у пантеры, где длинная ствола 70 калибров)
@@xteg0082 в смысле тем более? в каждой пантере стояла 7,5 KwK 42 без искоючения
It is very noticable the level of mobility of each tank. The Panzer I was running like a sport car, as well as the Panzer iv. But the panther, had to stop a few times and had a slow turn compaired to the previous ones.
Look up some videos of Panthers with more room to play around in. The Panther is incredibly agile for its size and weight.
I think they stopped to let the guy on the microphone talk about it.
This made me smile. How awesome it would be to see this with all the Pz Mk’s.
Other guys showing off their motorbikes to girls... ME : SHOWING UP ON A PANZER IV.
2:26
Seems realistic enough
For the Panzer IV, I'm debating with myself as to whether it is a G model or F2 model, I wanna say F2 but the barrel is giving me a G vibes, beautiful tank regardless, btw timestamps:
0:00 Panzer I
0:30 Panzer IV
2:10 Panther V
i was thinking g myself.
F2 have round muzzle break，the 75mm L/41，while the G have a longer muzzle break，the 75mm L/43
Gun too short to be the L/48 G model. That's a L/43 I think.
Accurate panther portrayal. You can hear the final drive failing lol
The Panther had its transmission and reliability issues solved by 1944. It was reliable longer than it wasn't
Der Panther 😍 wunderschönes Teil und schnurrt wie ein wildes Kätzchen
Everybody gangsta until the tank crew loads aphe
2:20 It's been almost 80 years. Give it a tune up, ffs.
It is easy to laugh at the Panzer 1 but when you think of the horror of WW1 where the nightmare was open stretches of ground with barbed wire and machine guns were king.. the Panzer 1 makes total sense. Impervious to rifle or machine gun fire, able to roll over barbed wire and carrying two machine guns. Developed between the wars, the design was based on earlier needs, it was a useful tool for training and development of the doctrine of mobile combined forces that worked so well in the early years of WW2
Panzer I sounds like a rotary-engine WWI plane ^^
Der Panther ist mit abstand der schönste Panzer aus dem zweiten Weltkrieg.
I've never truly seen a Panzer I working. Impressive
2:21
Hans, Panther transmission broke!
Dammit Neigel!
The Panzer I sounds like a bloody lawnmower
folks in 2017: look at that little panzer 1 it's so cute.
Poles in 1939: run there are coming panzers 1
panzers 1: time to run cowards
0:12 "Oh look at the adorable little tankie."
1:07 "Johnny, get that goddamn bazooka over here now!"
3:37 "OH FUCK RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!"
Panther is such a beauty
Can't imagine being in a foxhole ... Armed with an M1 Garand and a wool shirt for armor ... and THIS come crawling outa the woods ...😨
M1 Garand: _Kurwa,_ I don't feel so good...
Well that's when you get your radio and call in some good old fashioned close air support
In about ten years they will be able to 3D print a new Maybach V-12
Sundog7 And what use would they be? They were seriously underpowered and would be useless in modern tanks.
To see in the tanks back then lol
The panther only had serious mechanical troubles in the summer and fall of 1943 after the battle
of Kursk the problems were addressed and when the 2Nd block started finding their way onto the battlefield they were more reliable but that first generation of panthers really had problems with the transmission overheating and the suspension was supposed to be easier to fix in the field but that wasn’t the case .
Sources that they got better, and not dumb websites without getting accredited sources quoted, I want real sources like with the tiger " Thomas l jentz and hillary doyle's Tiger Tanks volume 1
Because from where I am standing, the Tiger was better in much much more
The Ausf. D was (oddly) the first to come out. Like software today version 1.0 is sometimes buggy. Especially when rushed. The Panther D was VERY rushed. The A & G were perfect though. Best tank of all time.
@@MXB2001 best tank of all time? No not at all, one of the best? Yes definitly like the tiger 1.
Unglaublich. Tolle Vorführung.
damn, I've never seen a Panzer I before, even in photos or old documentaries
Панцер 1 довольно забавный)) прям сумрачный тевтонский гений)))
А Т 26, какой гений, точнее, чей? 😁
3:35 why didnt he use neutral steer?
I'd drive one of those to work if I could...
The reason why they are going in circles is because they are capturing the D-point
great show ! Thanks .
0:2 aww cute little blitzkrieg
0:36 here's come his onii-chan
2:53 THIS IS IT EVERYBODY!! BIG CAT'S COMIN'! TAKE YOUR SEAT AND ENJOY
anyway no feeding the panther please, they're still wild cat
Да,не легко нашим пришлось..Эти танки и сейчас впечетляют.
Panzer 1 is adorable, at least as adorable as a tank can get.
Europe fall under Pz1 and 2
Luchs
I believe the Tiger P is adorable!
Ausgezeichnete Panzer. Recht herzlichen Dank fuers Video.
Fun fact
During the entirety of WWII if you were to combine the entire numbers of Panzer IV's, Tiger 1's Panthers and Tiger II's Germany made those numbers would have STILL fallen way short of how many of only Sherman's America produced (45k+) now add all the Tank destoyers America made just the 50k T-34 Russia made AND last but not least all the tanks England made
Germany never stood a chance
Absolutely amazing and beautiful sound.
Panther with a camo is still one of the best looking tanks ever built.An underappreciated tank as well unfortunately.
Vastly overshadowed by the Tiger sadly
I sure do miss good war movies!
Was diese Monster damals für einen Eindruck gemacht haben müssen wenn der Feind sie gesehen hat... unfassbar.
What's the top speed of panzer IV and panther ?
Gotta hand it to the Germans, even back then they had amazing tech.
German tech was rather bleeding edge, even up to late war.
They just didn't have the infrastructure to ensure the high quality control needed for such advanced technology and development.
Destructive weapons, yes. Efficient War Machine? Nope
Horses are amazing animals "Infantry and horse-drawn artillery formed the bulk of the German Army throughout the war; only one-fifth of the Army belonged to mobile panzer and mechanized divisions."
The panther tanks were the most accurate tank on the battlefield in World War II he could rip a Sherman to shreds it over two and a half miles would that 75 mm Cannon it was one of the best tanks on the battlefield next to the Tiger tank and the jagdtiger
Sounds like someone is believing what the Germans told us
Didn’t it use the 88mm? It was that just the tiger?
@@macnetics1916 The Tiger I and II used 88mm guns
@@macnetics1916 Only the Tiger, and only because the funny Austrian painter wanted beeg gonne instead of the more than sufficient 7.5cm.
No the tiger had more penetration, once you read the accredited source I provide you will understand why
2:25:P breaksdown *flashbacks*
I wonder if it was caused by changing the gears? I mean I've killed my manual accidentally; obviously I"m not tank transmission expert
_I read that they were even less reliable than today's mercedes cars_
The Panther production was rushed in a haste to get them to the battlefield as quickly as possible, among other things, for the 1943 summer offensive. Teething problems were abundant, although they were corrected to a large degree by mid 1944. Final drive was still an issue, and required trained drivers that treated the machine with care.
More than likely not a break down, you see this commonly with armored fighting vehicles when they are being paraded they just stop moving and it is almost always simply due to an inexperienced driver. A recent example would be last years victory day parade in Russia I think, where the new t14 armada stopped in the middle of the Red Square and it was due to the driver being very new.
*"Hans, report to the HQ that we need transmission rebuilt!"*
The engine got flooded
Why the panzer I’s engine deck open? Was engine ventilation a problem for these tanks?
That's so cool!, Where those genuine tanks?.
I wasn't really surprised when the Panther broke...
Haha don´t be so harsh. It was just a little hiccup. This Panther doesn´t have the original engine, though. It is using a 500 HP V-8 instead of the original 690 HP V-12.
Richardsen hahaha, I was just kidding, the Panther itself is a wonderful tank, it sure had some problems related to lack of resources after 1943, but it did a great job
We cool now.
LFCookie The final drives were still delicate though which is why there was a governor installed. They used straight spur gears in the final drives which aren't suitable for high RPM + heavy load.
+LFCookie • The Panther noticed that it was no German soldier sitting in it, so it stopped. Call it an extra feature. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Panzer I: "Fear meeee!"
1 Панцер такой ня:3. Еще меня удивляет что в комментариях под видео где просто показаны немецкие танки, мои соотечественники начинают писать ,,А как они горели хорошо" ,,Не всех тварей сожги". Люди что с вами не так?
Да они типичные совкодрочеры😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
Это просто неизлечимые диванные ватники. Насмотрятся телевизора. И им не докажешь, что и наша техника также горела хорошо и сыпалась как современный автопром.
Absolutely stunning vehicles with very good driver and commander.
does anyone know why the panther's wheels seem to be moving jerkily? i've seen it on many panthers now.
Что не говори но Пантеры и Тигры чертовски красивые танки ! Но наша Т34-85 разруливает !
Да ничего чертовского. А диаблоски!!!)
Мне показалось у Пантеры правая гусеница плохо натянута.
ага,между шахматными катками набивалась грязь осенью,наутро смерзалась и танк не мог с места сдвинуться,вверх конструктора-германского гения))
T-34 and the KV were way ahead of their time and great designs. If they had been used better with radios, well-trained crews and proper tactics they would have totally ruled over the germans.
Немецкая техника всегда была хорошая. Могу представить, как обидно было на ней получать побои и проигрывать.
Целый пласт истории танкостроения Германии. По своему красивые машины.
Dam that Panzer IV is a fine looking tank, the Germans sure new how to make them.
The Panther has a really tall profile, I guess that came from putting the drive sprocket in the front rather than rear.
🎵 Good Old Days 🎵
Немецкие танки хорошие, пушки мощные и точные, оптика отличная. Но русские оказались лучше. Т-34 и ИС-2 танки победители.
Надеюсь большой войны в Европе больше не будет.
@@Kuzneck ну у немцев танков тоже было достаточно >40 тысяч штук за войну наклепали, только Пантер 9 тыщ было. А если брать общие потери на фронте то потери были практически одинаковы. В 1941 кстати за 6 месяцев немцы потеряли столько де сколько за весь 1942, но начиная с 1943 действительно танков и самолетов у СССР было больше чем у немцев. Но не надо забывать, что в битве за Москву у немцев танков было раза в 3 больше (единственный случай за всю войну), но это им не помогло и сломали их, впервую очередь сибирцы и вновь сформированные отмобилизованные части, как пример дивизия Памфилова из казахов и узбеков сформированная уже после начала войны. А вообще немцам просто коллосально везло, большинство их побед прошло буквально на волоске от их разгрома, просто невероятное везение. Но оно оказалось не вечным и 5 миллионов их солдат закопаны советским солдатом.
Вова Н, никто точно не может сказать, что было на самом деле и сколько было жертв и потерь, каждая сторона тянет на себя победу, каждая сторона делает историю так, что бы они сами выглядели героями, и Америка и Россия, и Союзники в Европе, и Германия все они колбасят историю, архивы и "исправляют недочёты", где то числа подкрутят, где то что то переделают, поэтому не надо верить не им, не нам, все вокруг врут и это надо понимать............................
@@BOBA-H что это за дивизия ПаМфилова, первый раз о такой слышу? Да к тому же сформированная из узбеков и казахов?
Правда знаю про 316 Панфиловскую дивизию, но она состояла на 67% из русских, 8% украинцев, 11% казахов, 11% киргизов и 3 % других народов СССР.
@@BOBA-H не 5 миллионов а 12 миллионов это официальные цифры потери только Германии + союзники не менее миллиона положили и это боевые потери только. К началу 1944 года у немцев и союзников перестало хватать солдат даже на оборону и они стали откатываться на запад
@@idealumerov2935 фальшивки компетентными историками выявляются, методов там более чем достаточно. И да никакой "России" тогда не было. В ВМВ (ВОВ) участвовал СССР , и советский народ, а не "Россия".
Other than the pz 3 ausf J i love pz 4 ausf H
Nach den ersten Sekunden fiel mir ein das ich einen neuen Rasenmäher brauchen könnte, weiss auch nicht warum. =)
Schön zu sehen das der Panther wieder läuft, beim letzten Besuch stand er unter einer Plane und und zierte sich. Respekt den am laufen zu halten.
Is it just me or does the track tension on the right track of the panther seem really slack?
