- Finnish Army Simulator is actually a surprisingly realistic military simulator about Basic Military Training! 10/10 Recruits would agree and immediately do 20 pushups. Let's get to it!

"Nönnönnöö" is Finnish conscript jargon that basically means "Such-an-such". Often used in examples of undescript, unspecific servicemen, usually recruits. Alokas Nönnönnöö = Recruit Such-and-such. There's a crapload of in-jokes in this game that you can only really understand, if you've been in the Finnish Army. Nönnönnöö being one such in-joke.
And as for pronouncing it. Yours was pretty good, just drop in a bunch of Ös in there. It's essentially a mix of "OE".
English has that vowel but they don't distinguish it. Like Heard sounds Höörd to us, Bird is Böörd, Sir is Söör etc.
For Ä cat = khät, bat = bät, sad = sääd etc
It is from Latin, nomen nescio or n. n. (name unknown) which neeeds wovels to be able to be pronounced in Finnish. Therefore nön nön, originally än än, which has developed into nönnönnöö.

From how you describe officer cadets I take it you have some kind of pre-military service program that people who want to follow such a career take part in.
Not so in Finland. We all join as recruits and after basic training is over (2 months) you are selected for your future training. You can make your own wishes for what you want, but it's the professional military staff that make the actual decisions, largely based on your results during basic training and judging what each individual could be suited for.
The most basic roles such as regular infantry or artillerymen serve for half a year. Specialized roles like medics for 9 and those selected as drivers or for leadership roles 1 year. I believe it's been shortened by half a month for each of them since I served but it's something like that.
So for example if you're highly motivated and score well in theoretical and practical tests, you're almost certainly getting selected for leadership training. No matter what you want yourself, which causes some people to sabotage their own results to avoid having to serve for a year.
But before I go off on another tangent, this group selected for leadership training all get sent to NCO school where they will be trained to become NCOs for a specific company, so for example mortar company NCOs, engineer NCOs etc.
A few months into the NCO training, those who score the highest among this group get sent to "reserve officer school" where they will start training to become officers.
6 months into service NCO school ends and those who took part are promoted to corporals. The new batch of recruits arrive and the corporals are tasked with teaching them the very basics of how to behave in the military and knowledge you need as well as making sure the recruits get where they need to go, in time, with the right gear. Any "real" training is held by the professional staff which consists of a few NCOs of sergeant rank and above and a few officers of ranks up to a captain who's usually in charge of the company. Over the next 6 months these new recruits become the privates in squads led by the corporals.
A few weeks after the new recruits arrived, reserve officer school ends and those who went there return to their units as officer cadets. Technically they outrank sergeants but professional staff are still above them regardless of rank.
These officer cadets become the platoon leaders of the company leading the corporals who are leading the new recruits.
After 12 months when military service is over for everybody, the officer cadets are promoted to 2nd lieutenants and a handful of corporals are promoted to sergeants before everybody is moved into the reserve.
If you want to become a higher rank officer, NCO or such you'll have to become a career soldier after that and go to the "Finnish National Defence University".
Your rank in the reserve can also increase over the years based on how many refreshment trainings you participate in.
So what I was referring to was in the Singapore army, where everyone goes through basic and then those selected for officer training go to Officer Cadet School (OCS) and take on the Officer Cadet rank. This is where even a Recruit rank can outrank you in some cases.
While we do also have a cadet corps (junior cadet program for school students, not in the military), that's separate to what I was talking about here.
I've only now just realised how different Finland's military organisation is and where there can be confusion haha
Now you talking!🇫🇮
As a Swede I agree 🇸🇪🇫🇮
Suomi forever! Intti be like:

ooooooooooooooB
Mä puhun suomea= i speak Finland
Imagine going to do the military service Just to make your game realistic, the devo have balls of steel 🗿
Doesn't Finland have required service?
Every man goes to the military
Finland has conscription, every man has to serve.
@@TherealshitheadIs it just mandatory for men?
Here in Norway conscription is for both genders.
However unlike the Finns our military doesn't want all the recruits available each year.
You'll meet up but only the best are kept (technically regardless of if they want to or not, although in practice they usually take your motivation into account when picking recruits)
@@Luredreier only for men yes
We use to sing while marching in formation but it has been cut back. One reason is that some of the songs would be considered "problematic" these days. For example there is this one song we use to sing and its about invading and colonizing a neighboring country while burning everyone with napalm. We also used to sing actual military marches like the Jäger March and had to learn it by memory.
Yeah I remember we also had a few songs that were banned because of the content. Times change
Welcome to the Finnish Army, I'm sergeant Lentokonesuihkuturbiinimoottoriapumekaanikkoaliupseerioppilas. Here is your mandatory Vodka.
better give me ten bottles of vodka if you want me to repeat that. XDD

ah yes, sergeant Aircraft jet turbine engine auxiliary mechanic non-commisioned officer student.
The one thing about organizing your locker is that so long as everything *looks* good in unison when inspected from outside, its all good. Lets say for example you had a wool shirt that you can fold so that it can be placed to cover an entire shelf from the locker, and it was folded neatly so that it appears sharp when inspected. What you have there is essentially a concealed compartment into which you can toss literally anything, so long as it doesnt seem out of place during inspections.
Dude you are awesome! You should really play World of Tanks!
Edit: Also it’s so awesome you were a real life Leopard commander! In a few years here I’m going to enlist so I could serve in am M1A2 Abrams!
If you do get into a Abrams careful not to crush your arm in the breech
you must resist the urge of the thicc M1A2 chassis
Naw bro the Abrams is just streight up sexy
Also I will enlist to be a commander or a gunner!
This looks more like a vivid recollection of the training than the real experience, but you know, we all have our definitions of real
4:16 Those brick bunkers look exactly like the ones I was housed in at Riihimäki Signal Regiment in 2001.
8:03 That's what is known as "smurf suit". It's the regulation outfit for PE.
10:35 This type of formation is known as "häröpallo" and heavily frowned upon after day 1 when you're still considered something of a tourist.
11:20 One of *the* most essential skills for a recruit in the Finnish army is organizing your closet, second only to folding your bed cover into a perfect square.
Wait, this video was only one day of training?!
Yeah! It was a pretty busy first day. Just like actual Basic haha!
@@PanzerPawWe need next episode/day.
i'd love to see more of this game!
All item's have nicknames.
Blue gym suit is called "Smufs".
Peaked cap is called "a duck".
Winter hat is called "Elephant c*nt".
Winter layer is called "teddy suit"
we need another episode sir, this is great
The bulletin board tells you the marching equipment is with boots, which is right. But conscripts wear sneakers until the military doctor gives them all clear.
The officer candidates are reserve officers in training. They are going to become the officers of the unit you are recruit at. They have started their service half a year before you. They over rank the corporals and other conscript NCO's and they get promoted as 2nd lieutenant (res) the day they are released from the initial service to the reserves. The NCO already get promoted to their reserve rank before their conscripts enter the service. They can be promoted to sergeant (res) during the rest of their initial service. All the career military that train the troops have started as doing their conscript service and then applied to become career officers or NCO. So there are basically 2 different tiers of people and the whole nuance of it cannot be explained in one TH-cam comment. 😅
I think you almost managed to explain it.
I was the fastest in basic.... wasnt fun. Drill seargents would bet on me racing people.. i ran so fucking much in basic. I ran a 9 minute 54 second two mile... so yea, i was fast.
I didn't get fast until much later. But I did go from basically never running much ever to doing just about 10 minutes in a 2.4km by the end of it.
@@PanzerPaw nice. yea i was a track runner in highschool so i had a huge advantage going in.
Eyyy finland! It’s my neighboring country
Hope you have a good day from sweden
Man this brings back some memories
The first day you wouldn't actually address the seniors accordingly or run in cadence or even salute. The first day is all about orientation, finding your unit and getting your stuff. After that you're taught the basics like properly addressing seniors, saluting etc. After it's taught, it is required!
Finnish Army Simulator's graphics look like My Summer Car, yet its quality and gameplay also looks like my summer car.
Great job with quality content finns, you never let us down
You say everything like it’s written. Just look from google how to say it
We always wore rubber boots when in combat gear. I think the reason was that we got only one pair of landing boots, and we had to keep them clean. To make them less clumsy we tied straps around the ankles. Didn't look great but never had to worry about puddles at least.
Have you tried a game called "steel crew"? It's mainly a VR game but i'm pretty sure it can be played flatscreen as well. really makes you feel like someone who doesn't know how to drive a tank put inside a real tank cockpit
I've been wanting to play it for a while actually but recording VR is really annoying. Not sure if I'll do a video on it or not
just my opinion but you are cutting a bit too much, you are leaving all the funny parts of conversations and your reactions to them lol
Its nönnönöö
I feel like that's a common mistake during basic training everywhere but the US, maybe we watched so many American movies about their military that we believe addressing your superior with "SIR" is the proper wait to do it, but in reality most countries uses the rank first followed by their last name.
And please, if you talk to your superior, don't leave them hanging, know their ranks at least, but I'd rather remain silent than calling them sir, that's a no-no and might lead you to punishment.
Yep. I was an NCO. Ain't no way anyone calls me "sir" and gets away with it 😆
In Finland they do use "Sir/Madam " when talking directly to some superior, " " when talking about someone, or if talking to someone below you.
So abit of clearance on the officer candidate overruling a corporal. That's because in finnish army we call our equivalent of private first class "Korpraali" aka corporal. And officer candidates become the equivalent of US army corporal once they graduate.
So it's really just some ranks getting mixed up in translation.
Will you ever do a video on tanki online? its a fun tank game on steam
20-30 minutes time to eat? WHAT? In basic, it was around 5-10 minutes for us... (Finland) :D
Hey if your tank get knocked ou your going to need to pickup a gun and fight
"There's no way that was enough time" I do believe that is the point of the exercise.
On a separate, somewhat related note, have you ever seen a TV series called "Bad Lads Army"? If not, I'd recommend giving it a look. It's pretty dated but still a good watch. A long time ago in a galaxy far fa...... wait..... no..... a long time ago, in the UK time at a military training camp was an alternative to prison time. The idea being as a form of rehabilitation and to try and avoid re-offending, and I guess in the hopes that some of the refromees would go on to join the British Army and fill up the numbers after doing their time. Anyways, they made a TV show of it, called bad lads army, that's a pretty decent watch.
Not sure exactly where you get hold of it, particularly in the opposite hemisphere, but I know there's a lot of clips, and possibly full episodes floating around youtube, and a google search will probably turn up viable options to watch it too.
Yeah I know it wasn't meant to be enough time. I had the same thing happen when I was in BMT. But I'll check out that series. It sounds interesting
@@PanzerPaw I knew you knew, it was just a bit of a tongue in check quip at the fact that I'm pretty sure it's a standard trick the world over.
service is 6-12 months. edit: also nowadays you wear sneakers until you get your health check from doctor. not really sure how it is now, it's been over 20 years since my conscription, 25 to be precise.
That's funny to me because for our army it was the other way around. The sneakers and shorts combo was usually only if you're going for a medical check or reporting sick haha
Yes
my best frend is serving in the finnish army atm and she says the game hits way too close at home xD
i dont know why its not informed in the game but in finnish army recruits use sneakers for few first days
Wait, Finland has an army?! 😂
lol
All men in Finland are liable for national service, either military or civil one. Little over 70% men complete the military service and enter reserves. Here is a good overview of the conscript system and what it entails: th-cam.com/video/LHLEY4uIqno/w-d-xo.html
Served in Karelian Brigade in East Finland Signal Battalion 2021-2022 as Alikersantti 😎
yall got fuckin 30 minutes to eat?! in my basic we had about 10-15 until the end of white phase :(
Sounds like a lot but then 30 minutes also included the time taken queueing up to get the food too lol
@@PanzerPaw ah, i remember the first week we had only like 5 minutes to eat once sat, but the way our drills did it was ur time basic ally started when they tell your table to take seats, then they tell you to fuck off and you wait in formation, for everyone to finish eating. kinda sucked being first cause you had to stand in silence longer. idk if it worked that way for you
I remember we marched to the cookhouse and the time started from when we were dismissed from formation. So we'd all run straight in and try to be at the front of the queue lol. The moment time was up, you'd have to take all your trays to the back and put everything away as quickly as possible so you could fall back in to march off.

No its nönnönö its different what say sweden nunu
Anyone else suddenly get a big nostalgia hit?
Terve tuloa kaveri :)
In the the the US army we have active influencers and we also use shirts that say Army in all caps in yellow and shirt color it’s self was black and you had to have a 90° fold on all four corners
*My summer car music plays*
Epic
the accuracy probably comes from the fact that finland has mandatory military service
Hello
Finland bogo brrrrrrr
Mate can you do an Aussie military game plz
Sure, if I can find one
We need to be represented more in video games
I like that Squad and BF1 included Aussies. But yeah, very often forgotten about
You forgot about the disgrace of a game called call of duty vanguard
good video
the finish main battle tank doesn't even have a 50. bmg machine gun😀
You should have gotten C-papers. No need to go to the army :P

Finn here. So, how you'd pronounce the letter ö in Nönnönnöö is to take two fingers and shove them down your throat. Basically do your best throwing up impression.
the least in finnish army as conscription you would be is 6 months, depends what job you are getting specialized it can be 9 or 12 months too.
Why Finnish tanks sooo ugly
What?
They look like every other tank
Finland literally just uses Leopard 2s.
