    My Grandfather was a tank commander in a US M24 Chaffee. He was part of the US 8th armoured division under the control of Patton's 3rd army. He was involved in numerous engagements. One of them being the Battle of the Bulge. His tank was ultimately hit by a German 88mm when some bad intelligence told them that the town ahead was lightly fortified. In reality is was an extremely heavily armoured fortress of a town called Rheinberg. My Grandfather survived because he was about 6 foot 2 inches tall and had to spread his legs apart to stay low in the tank so he didn't get picked off. When the 88mm hit his tank it went between his legs and killed the the two guys up front. My Grandfather remembered his training and bailed out of the tank before a second round was fired as did a second soldier. The other soldier was hit by machine gun fire and my Grandfather ran to a ditch where he was strafed by machine gun fire as he tried to crawl to the rear. He finally made it back to friendly lines and went to empty his boots of the rain water. When he emptied them he poured out his own blood. It was then he discovered the 88mm had grazed his leg as it came through the tank. More information can be learned about this battle here. m.th-cam.com/video/_YT1N0BfEdk/w-d-xo.html
    He and my other Grandfather who was involved in the Normandy invasion at Omaha Beach on the coast of France both survived WW2.

    I LOVE these videos. They seem complete, full of interesting data/facts and very well presented. The presenter obviously loves armoured vehicles but does not get goofy about it by throwing adjectives all over the place. I think his presenting is spot on.
    But I wish you would tone down the 'bang' every time you change segments. The noise after the bang is cool. But the Bang itself is a bit jolting (unnecessarily, imo) - especially when you have headphones on (which I have to wear when watching these videos on my PC).

    It may be here or may not but the M-24 was still in use in Norway until the early 1990s. They were upgunned to a French low-pressure 90mm main gun and had the power pack replaced. The Norwegians saw this as a relatively low cost upgrade to a proven vehicle.

    The Chaffee seemed a logical concept: A light, fast tank with a potent 75mm main gun. The drawback: light armor. As fast as the Chaffee was, I'd have felt confidant in one at WW2's end.

    I was hoping that with your presentation of the differences between the Stuart and the Chaffee you would discuss the Tank Commander's Vane Sight that was mounted on the M-24, and how it was used for sighting the main gun. It you have any information about the "L-Shaped" sight I would be thankful if you could pass that along to me. I tried finding information on how TC's would use if for indirect fire, or helping with target acquisition for the gunner, but I have not found very much at all.

    Personally I’ve always been drawn to the M3 tank. I suppose it was because of a comic book I think was named ghost tank, it was looked over bythe ghost of JEB Sturat I think the tank commander was related to him. However, Say what you want but the M24 Chaffee is a beautiful looking tank atleast on the outside. Was it any good, I don’t know but it’s still a winner in the beauty category.

  • @joydiv0
    @joydiv0 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    HVAP ammunition was scarce during the war and mainly allocated to tank destroyer units, so its penetration is not very relevant as a measure of the effectiveness of the Chaffee's 75 mm gun.

    To me the Chaffee is a great illustration of US tank progress. The Americans go from have no 75mm guns, to having a hull mounted one, to finally getting it on the turret of the Sherman, and then by the end of the war it's on the light tank.

  • @ioccatonyz1
    @ioccatonyz1 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    When use correctly light tanks are highly valuable. The light tanks use less fuel they can exploit flanks and generally harass the enemy better than the fuel hog heavy's. Light tank armor should only be expected to protect the crew from rifle fire and shrapnel. The speed of the light tank is it's advantage. The M3 Stuart was very capable with the 37mm gun to take advantage of flanking enemy tanks. Fighting head on would not be the way to use light tanks, they would not survive frontal assaults. Hit and run, never trade punches with any other tank. It is not practical to engineer tanks to take more than it can dish out, but that is what has been done. The Chaffee with it's 75mm gun was a worthy replacement for the Stuart. The 37mm lost the confidence of tankers because it was the smallest gun on the battle field. The controversy of small hole -vs- big hole, the big hole gives better odds of a one shot kill but reloading is slower so if a miss is scored the smaller faster reloading gun is favored. That gave way to the slow heavy M6 mounted with both a big hole maker 76mm and a small hole maker 37mm. The 76mm M18 tank destroyer filled the flank and harass role best, it just needed a lid on the turret.

      Don't get seen by one lol. Not even sure in Wot or WT if angling would help much. In WT Ive managed to occasionally bounce a round, but it was likely a poorly aimed shot to begin with at an extreme angle. With armor that thin 50cal HMG's can go through your sides, best advice avoid getting spotted or fired on first, use its speed and maneuverability to evade shots or get behind cover.

    As I see it, the Chaffee was underpowered. It looks great, but a slow light tank is a grandma car. The Walker Bulldog came out of the low power closet, increasing Chaffee's 220hp powerplant (dividing 220hp by 20short tons for 11:1) to 500hp (dividing 500hp by 23 tons for 21:1).
    Moreover, we already had a 75mm armed replacement for the Stuart in 1942, with the US M7 Light. That was the purpose for which it was designed, after all. Confusing its potential with the need for a replacement for the Sherman was a disservice for a fine design. It also meant our Light Tank Battalions and Recon Squadrons had to soldier on with what was in effect a modernized Renault FT. Chaffee was a pig in a poke, war wise. We could have issued, should have issued, the M7 . . . the WoT equivalent of the Gremlin!

      It wasn't slow. It would reach 54km/h relatively easily. I have actually seen Collings Foundation's first M24, even with its age brake 50km/h without difficulty first hand.
      The M24's combat weight is a bit over 40,000lb (20.25 according to its TM). Not 23.
      Though as far as a mobility is concerned, there is no direct effect that power-weight ratio has on the vehicle's ability to move. Maybe some sluggish acceleration, though that directly depends on torque. And doesn't on power-weight. The M24 according to its TM is rated at 480ft-lb at just above idling rpm. For a PanzerKampfwagen III Ausf.L/M (according to the given information of it on Valka) is approximately 517 for marginally higher hp at lower rpm. Then again, that's one V-12. This is two, much smaller, V-8 automobile engines.

      TJ D they are designed completely differently. They main place for comparison is graphics. Which atm I'll agree WT looks better, but the Hd maps coming into wot are gorgeous.
      In terms of gameplay Wot is much more arcade style, while WT focusses much more on realism. Comparing it is like comparing Mario kart to F1 2017 (or a similar game focussed on realism).
