My steel house - life in a 🇪🇸Pizarro armoured vehicle

- In 2017, NATO’s enhanced Forward Presence saw four new deployments, bringing multinational battlegroups into Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland as a response to changing security environments along NATO’s eastern border.
As part of NATO’s enhanced Forward Presence in Latvia, Spain has deployed a heavy armoured unit abroad for the first time. Around 300 troops, 250 of which are from the Mechanised Infantry Brigade “Extremadura XI”, supported by Leopard tanks and Pizarro armoured vehicles, were stationed in eastern Europe for six months. They constituted the second biggest contingent of the Latvian-based battlegroup led by Canada. The battlegroup has also been supported by troops from Albania, the Czech Republic, Italy, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia.
This story follows three crew members of a Pizarro armoured vehicle and their day-to-day life. The film crew embedded with the Brigade “Extremadura XI” from the pre-deployment training until their multinational training in Latvia. Here they share with us both military and more person moments.

Great video. Great crew and vehicle!! Thanks
Furia40 you spelled “thanks” wrong you should have spelled it “tanks”
take in the fact your video got pinned by the North Atlantic Treaty Organization.
@@cosmogally1964 hahahahahahahahah. Good point
Much respect to Spain from Denmark🇩🇰🇪🇸 i have always been fasinated by the pizarro
Spanish cavalry units using in attack the leopard 2E with 2 pizarros with his crew and 6 infantry soldiers for assault. Is excelent tandem for attack.The explorer units using the Leonardo armoured vehicle 8x8 with 105 gun.
I'd like Spain and Denmark to train together with the Leopards. Hopefully
@@arielgarcia5065 That would be really amazing yes
Thank you Spain from Lithuania!
And from the USA, too, and I can safely assume my Canadian family members -- one who's a veteran of NATO operations, though as a police "advisor" -- would add their voices here, too.
i am from spain an i don now speak inglis xd , but thanks you for that my granfather is from lituania and ol may other family is from Spain , adios mi buen amiguo lituano xd
Very interesting video!! Full respect to these spanish heavy Infantrie soldiers🇪🇸Greetings from Germany🇩🇪from a former Panzergrenadier. Dran-Drauf-Drüber to the heavy Infantrie from Spain🇪🇸🇩🇪😊🙋♂️
Germany and Spain have one the best infantries of Europe,and we work joint in historical moments.The future European defense forces needs 4 european countries: Germany,France,Italy and Spain.Greetings to Germany.
Panzergrenadier, can you confirm that they're having fresh-brewed coffee and milk at 5:20? I'm going nuts with jealousy. US Army grunts had to _eat_ stale instant coffee back in my day.
@@johnd2058 Can confirm on the milk. It's issued to the units apart of the main rations, it comes from bricks you could find on any commerce. Same with the bread, though that one is done on the field.
As for the coffee it comes as part of the standard field rations, though it's quality is as good as you might find on any commercial center's shelf.
And yes, well, in Spain we are quite used to eat really well...and that translates into really excellent field rations for the military units too.
If you want to see what an usual spanish 24 hour MRE looks like, well there's this video:

I'm impressed with this crew. Very very cool. Greetings from the USA.
They are "Saboya n°6"
@@emiliomorterapiorno4961 gracias, me preguntaba si eran del Saboya, es la primera plaza que pedí. A ver si hay suerte 💪
I'm an American with Spanish heritage :) long live Spain and long live our Alliance!
Love Spain from Germany
Hail to our Spanish friends! Greetings from Italy!
Thanks sir Viva Italia !
Our brothers!! The italians!!
Hail Italy! Greetings from Spain!
Un gran saludo para nuestros hermanos italianos.
Hail Italy!!!! From España
Spain ...So many happy moments enjoyed there..You are so very kind , with us , frenchies. Very good docu ,btw.
Today,Spanish and French armies and navies have a great collaboration.The military units of two countries have a great number of joint exercices,because share de same menaces.Spanish FAMET(ALAT for France) landing her helicopters Chinook and Tiger in french ship Dixmude.Or have exercices in French maneouvres Baccarat.The last month,an spanish f-100 frigate is joined in exercice fanal-19 with french navy.
This video makes me proud! I work in the Swedish armed forces and I hope one day we will be in NATO together.
I liked that you made it so personal with the crew.
Great mini-documentary. They look like an awesome crew. A salute to my Spanish military friends. Thank you for your service.
My only critique is that I wish they showed more of the infantry squad that's deployed with them. That's the "other half" of the firepower of a mechanized unit. They're the ones that help keep the IFV safe against enemy anti-tank teams, while the IFV in turn, provides fire-support for their dismounted infantry.
Met some of the Spanish troops down in Latvia when we took our challenger 2s down there from Estonia to do a live fire package . Lovely place and great people
Greetings from Greece.Hope the best for Spain and your armed forces.
I know the feeling! Lived in a Royal Netherlands Army YPR-765 PRI (Charlie 30) during my conscription. We even gave it a name: Christine, after the book by Stephen KIng. Our driver had an old car radio installed in it and while on exercise we sometimes were singing with Van Halen out loud in the cabin. But most of the time we had to camp outside in our foxholes on the German plains (it was during the Cold War) and only got to board it, when quick movement over greater distance was required. But yes, we loved the tin can. Not quite as capable as the Pizarro, but our home nonetheless.
Steel Beasts Pro for the win! haha!
Matsimus hey! How it’s going buddy?
You’ll be no doubt researching for when the uk is calling this “Ajax” 😉
@@cra83
Is this the replacement for the Warrior the British army is phasing in then?
What's the vehicle at 6:15? looked sort of like a Merkava to me..? Although I doubt that would be present in a NATO exercice..
Steel beasts on a 4:3 screen? Is this the era is Spanish inquisition?
That was really well done and a joy to watch. Much love from the USA.
I see only humility and dedication in these people.
Thats a nice Tank, our nations developed and use together :D
Greetings from Austria !
Yes! Ulan in Austria and Pizarro in Spain.
Un estupendo vídeo, enhorabuena.
Sería más perfecto con un IFV actualizado, más completo (las dos primeras en referencia a otros IFV como el bradley, Ajax y la variante del t 14, que nos estamos quedando atrasados nuevamente) y hecho íntegramente en España, pero que pedir al 0,9%del PIB, ya se hace bastante con los que hay.
Solo les faltan misiles antitanque tow y ya están completos
excellent! Saludos a totos desde Inglaterra, great video and camaraderie
¡I'm so proud and grateful about you guys! Gracias por lo que hacéis por todos nosotros.
Best wishes from the Philippines❤️
I was reading the subtitles like huum that's interesting when I realized that actually I'm a Spanish speaker 😂😂
Yo también jajaja no les entendí nada, tuve que ver los subtitulos para entender
Damit dude xD 👍-up.
Los subtitulos no es que estén muy bien hechos pero bueno.
Same 😂😂😂😂
Lmao!!
Fuerza a los grandes profesionales que forman la infantería mecanizada 💪
Much respect to the Spanish military
Greetings from a pole living in Ireland thank you for this great video love Spain and the Spanish soldiers.
🇵🇱🇪🇸♥️
Much love from the Netherlands!
Amazed of the quality of this film. So nice general feeling, casting is exeptionally good. Nothing was forced in the film, it just flows. Pizarro engine noise was totally gone, polished sound allaround. Kinda quiet, thoughtful atmospheres, good music selection. Sound mixing balance and talent speaking eq and compression was flawless. Who made this? Congrats to the team.
This armoured vehicle is so cool !! Salute from Greece .
My country!!!!! 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸💪

That’s an Austrian tank build in cooperation with Spain it’s made by Steyr-Daimler-Puch Werke and Spanish Santa babara systemas.
In Austria it’s called Ulan instead of pizaro 🇦🇹🇪🇸💪🏼
Very proud of the army of my country 🇪🇦, they are the real heroes!
Very proud of the Spanish Combat Forces and the Pizarro Armor. Thanks NATO for the video
Muy Orgulloso de las FFAA españolas y del Pizarro. Viva España y Viva nuestro Ejercito!
You never forget it’s been 29 years since I was in the military and the 3 man team I was associated with is still as fresh in my memory now as it was in the past.
¡Fuerza y Honor!
As soon as I saw Pizarro in the title I knew it was my army, my fellow Spaniards 🖤
Fabulous vehicle; you’re doing a great job guys 😺
3:30,the Pizarro´s and his parthner in combat in spanish cavalry units,the Leopardo 2E tank.
Thank you for protecting us
Buen video. Que orgullo. Gracias por vuestro servicio, por vuestra entrega. España va con vosotros
Its easy to forget why we are in NATO, and it is easy to forget that it has been NATO and close relationships with each other that created and has maintained this peace between us. The same peace that some now use to say that we no longer need NATO. I am an American who now lives in Canada and even though I have never been to Germany Latvia or other European country's if the time came I would fight for your democracy.
I'm not even from NATO country, but I really hope this alliance stays. Someone needs to counter modern Russia's fascism. Greetings from Belarus.
Given that Belarus is more commonly seen as a Russian satellite state than anything else, this delights me greatly. Thank you from Sweden!
дзякуй браце! Прывітанне ад украінца, які пражывае ў Іспаніі.!
Toda la razon amigo
Como no, el pizarro un blindado español para apoyo de infanteria, gracias a nuestras fuerzas armadas que lo utilizan cada dia🇪🇸
Greetings to Spain...as we say "Dran, Drauf Drüber" ;-) Grenadiers rule
What is the meaning of that?
@@miguelp8249
It's a whole lot of bad German. Not the OPs fault, it's 'tradition'.
It should be 'ran, rauf, rüber' without the D's except for maybe '(d)ran'.
Now literally it means 'to, onto, over', regarding some obstacle.
Some say the obstacle is the enemy, which again I'd consider pretty stupid again.
I'd rather interprete it as ANY obstacle like walls, trenches, entire houses etc., finally meaning:
TACKLE ANY OBSTACLE!
or
DON'T GET STOPPED BY ANYTHING!
@@damianm-nordhorn116 its not bad german its a dialect
@@damianm-nordhorn116 : Well, it is "Dran, Drauf, Drüber..." and its the Motto auf our "weapon-colour" th-cam.com/video/qDSk8hDvqfQ/w-d-xo.html
Just a way to greet fellow armoured infanterists....
@@miguelp8249 It is the traditional Yell of german heavy infantrie and means similar Dran👉towards the enemy Drauf👉Beat the enemy in combat and Drüber👉Being victorius and leave the enemy behind! It's a kind of traditional sign. It may mean the same as "Rock and Roll"😊🙋♂️
This is awesome, greetings from Sweden. I hope Sweden will become a NATO member in the future
what a lovely crew. best wishes from germany
None expects the spanish inquisition.

The spanish inquisition but this time they've got armor support

Very interesting being ex British tank crew. We ate together though, a 4 man ration pack and took it in turns cooking, rather than several individual one man cookers, we had a 2 ring petrol cooker.
Glad to have you as allies - from the US
Thanks Spain and all NATO soldiers for fight for the freedom of the West and all the world. This video was really emotional and inspiring 💙💙💙💙💙 I admire all what you do 💙💙💙💙💙 You guys are awesome 🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠
I just find it insane how a sergeant major can be assigned the role of tank commander. This man has served for probably 20 years, and risen through all the enlisted ranks to end up the same job as me when I served as a 19-year-old corporal. And I also believe I was perfectly capable of fulfilling the role I had. I don't know whether this is commonplace in Spain, but a sgt. maj. should definitely have a battalion or brigade level desk job, or be a very advanced specialist.
merci pour cette vidéo et respect de vos engagements
Love spain from india
Bravo !!
Best wishes from England.
Salute from the Netherlands!
@@liamgroen8488 Die ervaring hebben we waarschijnlijk niet. En de CV-90 en Leopard 2 zijn meer dan goed genoeg om als pantertroepen te dienen.
@@liamgroen8488 waarom geld uitgeven aan ontwikkeling als je gwn een goede kan kopen van geallieerden we hebben er zowieso maar heel weinig. luchtmacht en marine is het grootste kwa gevechts materiaal denk ik
@@liamgroen8488 Vroeger heeft Nederlands heel veel tanks gehad en zelfs eigen gebouwd! Maar door het bezuinigen zijn ze verkocht aan andere landen.

Salute from Canada !
muy buen video si señor. Viva España y viva el ejercito Español y todos nuestros Militares
Vivan todos nuestros militares demócratas y que sean como cualquier otro ejército europeo.
Greetings from your German friends, glad you like our austrian neighbors products.
Sure, like German products, the best. The ASCOD (Austrian Spanish Cooperation Development) is a cooperation agreement between Austria and Spain. Pizarro for Spain, Ulan for Austria and now Atlas for UK. Hulls manufactured in Spain, turrets in Austria and the UK versions, i don´t know.
Sorry Ajax (not Atlas) is the name of the UK IFV.
Awesome to see alot of EU countries with their respective camouflages that makes them unique the uniqueness has been dropping over the years but that's still a thing and I love it!
Some people want a EU army. Instead of a coalition of unique EU armies.
The Pizarro is very cute
Hi from the USA
Hello from Germany
Salute from Latvia !
Thank you for SO MUCH !
Great stuff. More docs like this please!
Good video, I miss my time with NATO, difficult deployments but great friendships with people of many nationalities. Keep it up guys,you are doing a great job!
Is that a .50 cal anti materiel rifle on the ground at 5:46?
Viva España!
Is the Pizarro, a battle tank made in Spain or bought from another country. It look s nice and the fact that it's Spanish. I love it. I'm interested in the Spanish military.,🇪🇸 Mabuhay Filipinas🇵🇭🇺🇲

Bravo el ejército español 👏 👍 👌 🙌 😎 😉

If I knew I'd be working with other countries and doing amazing things like this, I'd of no doubt joined the Army.
