The original video was hit with 'Limited adds', so this is a re-upload, but I made it better with new scenes and 4K upscaled footage.
But why Limited adds.? I think it's because TH-cam has placed this channel on alert and is deliberately hitting these videos before it's even done uploading yet.
What does Limited adds mean? It means that it will not get the views it would normally get and the video will fall out off TH-cam's algorithm.
Most of the time it will get adds back after review, sadly that's not working anymore. So i'm getting demonetized without breaking the TH-cam guidelines.
As a result, my channel has been slowly dying, and I really have no motivation to make any new videos.
Also, most of the extra information in the comments, I always implemented is gone, just to not piss off the broken YT Bots even more.
sorry to hear. the videos are fantastic.
Just do what you can. 40K subscribers is better than many channels. Good luck.
I hear you...fucking you tube now a days.. keep fighting
I have previously supported you in your push back to utube. But this one "mighty 88mm" "original sound" is complete bollocks.
Please stop whinging. Either continue posting footage or admit you are a Nazi fanboy. I'm sick of the dog whistles here that attract the howling pack.
Stick in some rainbows and unicorns then they'll be happy with it.
The stability of the hull during firing is simply astounding
That's something I noticed.
It's amazing how the hull didn't visibly flinch
First thing I noticed
The Tigers sitting still after the war was over were very stable.
Yep. Way better engineering than todays tanks.
Wow, I didn't know that the tiger's hull didn't move when 88 gun fired!!!!
The Tigers had a hydraulic buffer system to tame the recoil.
I don’t think even many modern Mets have a hydraulic buffer
Muzzle brake helps some.
Welp,if the hull moves,the ring gear is probably broken and the crew fucked up.
@@randommaniac245 You gotta' be a Dozer mechanic! Friend owns a heavy overhaul shop for 'em in Tallahasses.
The way the 88 recoils and is controlled in a 16 ton turret with a flat trajectory made it very accurate.
I belive there optics were the Best.
@@jimmccoal2693 Zeiss optics where used and type B was up dated to the C 1944 for all tanks.
Those tanks were Beasts!...A legend in its own time!...
Depends on the terrain
And a legend is all they were, the amount of Tigers on the battlefield were the same amount the Soviets were sh**ting out IS-2's each day.
Even if the Tiger 1 has been overshadowed by modern tanks, they'll never have the badass presence of this machine.
In the 40's the Germans had tanks that looked like something you'd see in the 21st century AND they were flying JETS. Amongst many other futuristic contraptions. Leave it to the Germans..
@@rowds now its all in the hands of the synoguage of satan jews
@@rowds what is the the name please
@@somtochukwuobidegwu5426 ME 262
That tank from 80 years ago is still impressive today.
Damn straight! Bet the Ukes would rather have a bunch of Tigers than Abrams!
@@billcallahan9303if they want to die in 2 secs.😅
When the Tiger was on the Eastern front they were at their best. Long distances they could pick there targets off. Long expanses of open field and a gun that was state of the art at the time. Wow. Amazing video. Great great footage.
I noticed that too ,dam long shots they were making ,in the wide open fields made them super deady ,and the gun handled so well inside the turret ,and with guys like Witman driving around ,even with the small numbers they put a serious hurt on the Russians ,I often wondered how they got side tracked to making the next huge tanks with such low speed and not stick with the panthers and tiger 1 and stugs in massive numbers
@@Berzilla yup. But like Stalin said. Quantity is a quality all its own. And by then the Allies were bombing and destroying the German war
Machine 'factories' by that time.
The sucess of the Tigers were due to heavy armour, superior optics, and of course the 88mm. They were expensive to make and maintain, there was just not enough of them. Still, the most iconic tank of WW2. Tiger an der front!
Seeing the wrecked T-34s, I’m reminded of the Stalin quote, “Quantity has a quality of its own.” Tigers were impressive beasts, especially in defense. But the Germans were just overwhelmed by shear numbers of T-34s, Shermans, Cromwells, etc.
Yep, same thing as with air power. The German fighters were better, just outnumbered
Sehr richtig aber Benzin und Ersatzteile fehlten auch.
They were overwhelmed by B-24 and B-17s destroying manufacturing...
@@2true359and Lancasters plus Halifaxes. It wasn’t just the USAF that bombed German cities.
The Tiger is a great looking tank but it was over engineered and met it’s match with the Firefly. Later variants of the Tiger were simply underpowered.
The Tiger just LOOKS like the last thing you would EVER want to be the last t hing you ever saw.
A Pershing was destroyed by this little thing. Imagine the King Tiger or the JagdTiger 122mm
@@Big1_ 128mm
The Tigers needed air cover
Thanks for a terrific video on the Tigers firing the 88mm!!!!!
You're welcome.
Don't what they say, it's still THE iconic tank of WW2
It was not just the hi velocity 88 mm precision gun, quality ammo, the Tiger 1 had high precision Zeiss optics. This combo resulted in accurate one shot, one kill. Again, the weakness was the tank was not fully debugged… need a powerful Diesel engine, transmission, reliability. Not to mention large numbers with air support. Possible only in peace time.
Transmission was bad, same as the Panthers'. Prone to over heating and mechanical break down.
The final 75mm gun on Panther had even better velocity than the tiger 88mm
Yea. TH-cam is still trying to disappear up it's own backside again. Still stoked to come across your videos when they're allowed to be seen. Don't stop doing them. Cos they are appreciated by those who actually get to see them. This one is brilliant. Keep up with the good work.
Their botsystem is completly broken, which would not be a problem for creators if they have real people reviewing counter claims when they come in. But they don't care one bit.
@@PanzerInsight sadly this seems to be the problem right across all social media at the moment. Instagram is even worse. I dread to think what the others are like.
@@PanzerInsightWhat the heck is wrong with showing combat footage ? I can't believe they would care.
Great sound.
One of the roles my grandpa had in world war II was motorcycle dispatch-carrier. He had raced motor cycles back home in USA and could fix them too.
Supposedly, he told my dad that one time he crashed his bike because rain and roads were terrible. Damaged his tail pipe/exhaust tube. So he found a 88mm spent canister and built a giant muffler for his bike. He told my dad that whenever he road through places lots of people dove for cover or ran away. He didnt understand why...until in battle of the bulge he came under german 88 gun fire....his bike sounded like an incoming 88 round! 😅
He also said you could hear the german tanks coming and differentiate them from American tanks because of super loud "squeaking." German ball bearing factories had been bombed.
The Commanders and crew of Tiger tanks would have felt like Gods of War when they were first introduced.☠️👍😎 Cheers!
"В первые дни войны" танков Тигр еще не было.
Ich glaube das der erste Einsatz vom Tiger I Ende August ' 1942 stattfand. Wäre er doch früher zum Einsatz gekommen ...
@@franks9414 You might as well say, "If only the Pershing had been introduced earlier." All of the tanks were answers to the other side making bigger, better tanks. The Germans got obsessed with the "bigger" part, though. I don't think the Tigers would have fared as well if they weren't mainly fighting a defensive war, which Germany was from around late 1942. Their supply lines kept getting shorter, while the Allies had to transport their stuff through longer and longer distances.
@@Mikhail0205Ars.Oui mais les tanks allemands panthères en 75 mm étaient plus dangereux .le Tank français AMX13 année 1955. possède un 75 mm du Tank panthère allemand .
@@GilbertPinНемецких танков Пантера 75мм так же не было в начале войны. Они появились позже. Пантера превосходный танк, но почему то война окончилась падением Берлина, а не Москвы.
I love to hear Panzerkitty's mighty ROAR!
Big Cat
This footage has more quality than some US Vietnam material from the 60 s
That's one of the things I loved about the movie "They shall not grow old." They put sound to the footage, which is always lacking in documentaries.
Highest knock out ratio of any tank in WW2. 12:1 overall.
Unfortunately, they knocked themselves out at a super high rate, breaking down.
@@IndianaSmallmouth - For me, the image of the Tiger Panzer is the most representative of WW2....no other war machine of any other nation can surpass the appalling feeling of a Tiger moving around its flat turret and opening fire with the awesome 88...! All living creatures rush to seek shelter when the tiger leaves its lair and starts wandering around looking for a victim !
The Tiger is fierce but a King Tiger with a trained crew and no mechanical or fuel issues on the open Steppe would surely reek havoc.
They all had mechanical and fuel issues, though.
And the quality of their armor was poor that late in the war.
@@jamest4383 I would rather be in a panther with a top notch crew. Put track links on weak areas and wade into the fray.
It was too heavy for its engines though. The Panther or Tiger were better in my view.
UK had the 3.7 inch AA Gun (92mm) their equivalent of 88mm, British Army used it as an AntiTank in Exercises in 1936 but the AA Regiments decided and were allowed they were exclusively AA and not used as Artillery or Anti Tank , this puzzled Rommel and Africa Korps as tye 88mm was essntial to their defensive successes, Von Luck one of Rommels Officers wrote only time he knew of when 3.7 inch was usdd against panzers was when Tobruk was captured, when Panzers drove down into the Port the AA Guns depressed their barrels and fired on ghem, they did not have Armour Piercing (they had in 1936) but their AA Shells did serious damage to the Panzers without destroying them; Von Luck was in command of only Panzer Regiment in Normandy on D Day , well worth reading his book especially his time as prisoner of Russians , very, very interesting . Another example of British Failure, British Tanks at beginning of WW2 were as good if not better than German but as the guns required got bigger the Brit Tanks were restricted in width to enable them to be transported by Rail, most obviously seen in Churchill Tank wh8ch if wider could have had a wider Turret Ring and mount a bigger gun (3,7 inch?) , it could have been s British Tiger , Germans had same problem but they removed tracks and outer wheels to transport Tigers and Panthers nd replaced them when they reached their destination
I could never figure out how the English could design such legendary fighters and bombers then make such crappy tanks.
Them boys at 1:20 ears rung!
To few Tigers and Russian winter weather = Big problems. Thanks for the video.
I've loved Tiger tanks ever since I first watched Kelly's heros. I would've definitely done the oddball thing and bought the tiger tank. 😂
"It's a piece of junk!!!"
Deadly war machine of WW2!
The stand-off range is unbelievable. Those 88s could do it all. Anti tank, aircraft etc.
The sound from the 88mm in the Tiger tank is certainly terrifying, those who did not hear it from the opposing side are dead or wounded. One of the best artillery solutions in WW2. He started out as an AA gun. An incredibly effective weapon...
Awesome, thanks for sharing
You're welcome.
I love the Tiger 🐅 Tank though I do sometimes wonder 🤔 how many Allied Tank crews were knocked out by one of these beasties firing from such a distance that they had absolutely no idea that it was even there!
Heard a story about one knocking out (destroying would have been a much better description!) a T-34 which it hit so hard that it's turret flew up into the air and it's engine flew out of the rear of the vehicle as it literally blew apart at the seams!
A Soviet T-60 light Tank (20mm cannon armament!) bagged 2 Tigers by drawing them towards some 76.2 mm guns which promptly knocked them out! Both crewmen of the T-60 got medals for that.
We've all heard the legend of Michael Wittmann's Tiger 🐅 at Villers-Bocage which is just insane 😳.
The T34 exploding was not likely only due to the German round, but rather the result of catastrophic on-board ammo going off. These internal explosions were tremendously powerful.
Wittmann could have accomplished that feat using a Sherman or Cromwell. He caught that group completely by surprise and it was his boldness and excellent tactics that caused such a lopsided outcome. In fact, at those point blank ranges the 75mm Sherman gun firing HE might have been even more devastating. Faster rate of fire too!
Many years ago around 2008 Airshow A Tiger was here I was 5 miles away at least I heard rolling thunder. No storms just that damn 88.
there goes the Fury tank..Kaboom!
Excellent footage.
Our tank guns looked like matchsticks...theirs looked like telephone poles..quote!!
Hermoso video de nuestro imponente tigre, un enemigo muy temido en cualquier etapa del conflicto.
Wow very awesome footage. Tiger 1 my favorite tank of all time, despite its issues. Cheers all!!!!
Thank you for the comment.
That's how Operation Goodwood, became Deadwood!
Some great footage there, most I've not seen before, I can only imagine what it must have been like for an Allied Tanker when they came across any of the Tiger variants, until the Firefly came into play, there was nothing capable of taking out a Tiger, you have a new subscriber 👍
Thank you for the comment and sub.
The stability of the hull is amazing
Der Urvater des Leopard
The sound of the 88s and huge diesel engines must've been overwhelming
Tiger 1 had petrol engines (Maybach) like all other German tanks.
Petrol engine as mentioned, the movie PATTON strikes again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some serious power
The T-34 had a life expectancy about the same as its fuel tank.
Tiger 👊👍✌
If you think you had a rough day at work, watch this video again.
The Tiger fighting in the snow is such an epic scene what a beast of a tank
Outstanding photography, editing and sound.
You see what courage men had to have confronting these monsters
Holy moly
Boy that 88 had some MUZZLE VELOCITY! Holy shit a flack gun on a tank!
That muzzle velocity was the real killer punch. The M4's 75mm was a fantastic weapon, but the rounds just didn't have this same ZING.
Only 1350 tanks builded ,but they made it history .
The certainly did. I have to say I'm less impressed with the 88mm gun than I am the fact you could steer the massive Tiger with just two fingers! 😅
Very Impressive!
A must have.
It is THE tank.
Well they were recording without sound in most cases I believe & have added sound later in editing... but this really sounds legit. Nice work.
Yes, WW2 films were not "talkies." Gun camera footage always has sound dubbed in.
Great footage!
Great Video! Go on! Greetings from Germany - Sammelplatz Militaria
Spectaculaire ce tigre
that was great thanks.
You're welcome.
increible, ni se movia!
Ein schönes Tier
Sie haben recht.
Question: Is there any place on TH-cam to see a Tiger Tank firing its gun in the present day? Not with blanks, or dummy rounds, but with real projectiles?
A mean, nasty cat. Imagine the fear of the opposition
I don’t care what anyone says the tiger tank is the most scariest and badass tank in WW2 and it has it problem but still a legendary tank.
Thanks!
Thank you so much for the Super Thanks that's so awesome.
*_THANKS!_*
Excellent video
Stumbled on this channel thanks to YT's recommendation (judging by the comments here, a very unusual thing!) and am glad to have found it! Good quality vids and nice sounds (though I'm not sure if any are post-war dubs). The sounds of the shots filmed from inside the tanks do closely match contemporary accounts' description of what the 88 sounded like - high pitched bark. One thing's for certain - 1:20 those troops would have had a real unpleasant time sitting where they were! Being anywhere near the muzzle end of a sizable calibre weapon when it fires is LOUD. Especially with the KwK36's muzzle brake venting the blast sideways - that is, in their general direction 😖
Meanwhile, keep up the great work!
Thank you for the comment and I'm glad you enjoyed the video and indeed the audio is added later on, but is all original Wochenshau sound.
If these PC types didn't get their panties in a wad so easily and want to disable all the guns, we might have a Tiger left with an operable tube that could be fired and recorded for historical purposes. Although some company would probably charge $50,000 per round to make up some 88 shells 🤣
excelente
Very nice 👍💪
I can't imagine the tank recoil compensator made by Germany 82 years ago could be so good that the current Russian ones can't even match.
The germans were technological geniuses. Very functional and ahead of their time.
What makes you say that?? 😂😂😂😂
Beast.
Seeing and hearing this, just on TV, was very impressive. Just firing it, and being inside the Tiger and fairly close around it outside, in real life, appears would be a pretty tough job. I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of it, to say the least. If I were, and alive, I would be doing some sincere praying, along with taking whatever cover presents itself. I'm sure there was more powder in the shell casing than average, from the sound of it firing. It sounded heavier than I would expect 88mm to sound. The 88 originating as an anti-aircraft cannon, I guess would need a relatively large amount of propellant for high muzzle velocity and range.
The tiger is like the F4 Phantom-iconic!!
"I might have to trade you in Sleipnir"
-Wotan, probably
The "acht-acht" from the Tiger is one thing but the TZF 9c/ Tower Scope was the real deal. The Germans had superior optic devices and combined with a experienced "Richtschütze"/Gunner and Crew gave the "Tiger" superiority on the battlefield. Stalin's words about quantity and quality shows once more his barbaric and cruel instincts. Hitler was a anti-semitic Monster but at least, he always wanted the best protection and firepower for his soldiers.....
No music is very good !!
They knew what they were doing Folk's ❤
Top👍
The Germans are serious craftsmen. Never seen anything come out of Germany that wasn't top quality. My kind of people on that front.
Buena ingeniería uno de los mejores tanques de la segunda guerra mundial, el mejor ejército
Just dishing out punishment!!! 🐯
Wow... amazing sound scary
Incredible!
Soon to meet General Mud and General Winter.
Interleaved wheels.
4:03 : Looks like an armoured face shield for the boss as he sticks his head out of the turret to avoid sniper fire.
It's also a rail for the machine gun mount.
If they could have put the time and quality control into these tanks... Damn.. cause as Is they were something else
Better wuality than security cameras. i know it was upped wuality but still
Beautiful flick, really nice. How's that Stug flying through at 2:13 😂
seriously bad ass tank for the time.
Tigers were vulnerable in towns and forests I’m guessing hard to maneuver
It was Lenin ' Quantity has a...'
Their cameras didn't record audio though, so where was the audio recorded?
I think the German newsreel recorded the sounds on proving grounds and they probably had a huge audio library.
The sound of war has not changed.......................
Those ones that kept the road into Kharkov open in the winter of 43 with Canadian tire blowtorches hot coco
and rcmp bubble hash from the caucuses were special but they came from Mars not Manheim.
Tigers were vulnerable in towns and forests I’m guessing
colossal 😮 !
HelssBellssss.....
I think it was the gunner of Otto Carius that shot down a Russian Yabo on the second shot? Could have been another commander, i stand to be corrected.
The Germans were overwhelmed by Allied Aircraft not Allied Tanks!
Hitler built a fortress around Europe, then he failed to put a roof on it. Don't kid yourself about allied tanks though, they did a massive amount of damage.
