    The sand coloured paint on German tanks (RAL 7028 Dunkelgelb) was the standard base coat applied to all German tanks post early 1943 however once the vehicle arrived at the front with its crew, the crew would apply RAL 8017 Rotbraun and/or RAL 6003 Olivgrün to actually create a suitable camouflage that matched their surroundings.

      What was the reason for the dark yellow undercoat as standard?

    • @STHV_
      @STHV_ 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      @@kirishima638 The original dark grey RAL 7021 wasn't terribly effective outside of the urban environments of Western Europe and seeing as Germany was now focusing almost all efforts on fighting in the Soviet Union they decided to switch to a camouflage system that would provide better concealment against the open fields and foliage of the sparsely populated steppe

      @STHV_ 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @@kirishima638 Because it is better to use camo patterns to break up the shape of the vehicle plus painting your own camo to suit the surroundings is more effective than a one size fits all approach. Not to mention a lot of allied vehicles did use multi-colour camouflage. There is also the fact that green plus the white star was almost always used in propaganda and war films to show Allied tanks and an erroneous light grey for German tanks so it effectively became the iconic/stereotypical colours most people associate with ww2 tanks

    5:40 Yes, King Tigers were part of Germany's last-ditch invasion of Western Australia in December 1945. In a repeat of the mistakes of Operation Barbarossa on the Russian Eastern Front, the German Army again misunderstood the weather - trying to drive west to east across the Australian outback in the summer to capture Sydney proved too much, as the German forces expected winter in December and were equipped with heavy wool coats and gloves.

    Firstly, I'm glad you're ok and sorry it's been tough.
    As for this video, I bought this game on PS4 after seeing your videos and I really enjoy it. It's relaxing to play unlike that OTHER 'tank' game. But the developers have consistently mislead console players about the release dates. We were supposed to get the same content, bringing it in sync with the PC version last year. Then they promised it for January. And still nothing.
    I find the other modes of the game, the metal detecting, the test driving, and the painting, seriously under developed and tedious. But there is something about sanding, painting and crafting new parts which is seriously addictive.

      Intrigue or maybe just interested in mechanical things? Personally I am always interested to see what makes up vehicles like these.
