Cat Family Reunion - Tiger 1 with Leopard 1 & Leopard 2
#Tiger1tank #Leopard1tank #Leopard2tank #Tiger1tankmeetsLeopard1andLeopard2
The Tank Museum at Bovington, UK held their 9th Tiger Day tank running event on Saturday 28th April 2018.
Their Tiger 1 tank, unit coded 131, was on display in the main tank hall of the museum from where it was started up and moved out into the Kuwait arena, where it was driven around in front of the large crowd.
As well as a number of other tanks that were also on show in the arena, the Tank Museums own Canadian Leopard C2 tank - an export version of the Leopard 1 - and a Dutch Leopard 2A4 were also on show and put through their paces next to the Tiger tank.
The Dutch Leopard 2A4 is one of only 2 that have been retained in Holland as working museum vehicles, following their retirement from Dutch Army service and the sale of the remaining Dutch Leopard 2A4s to Finland. The Dutch Army have since reformed a single tank unit and are now equipped with more advanced Leopard 2A5 and 2A6 tanks that they lease from Germany.
The Tiger 1 tank is officially designated Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger 1 Ausf.E (SdKfz 181).
1354 Tiger 1 tanks were made between 1942 and 1944. Of these only 6 that are substantially intact survive and this Tiger 1 is the only one that is currently in running order.
The Tank Museums Tiger1, known as 'Tiger 131', was captured by the British Army, during an action against German Africa Corps troops and tanks at Gueriat el Atach, Tunisia (known as Point 174), during an attack there by 2nd Battalion The Sherwood Foresters on 24 April 1943.
The Tiger, although only lightly damaged, was disabled by a lucky 6 pounder round shot from the main gun of a British Churchill Tank from 48th Royal Tank Regiment, which was supporting the Sherwood Foresters from some way behind, the shell becoming lodged in the Tiger tanks turret ring preventing it from operating. The Tiger was abandoned by its crew, who fortunately failed to ignite the demolition charge that was carried in all Tiger tanks.

the fact that there is only a gap of 37 years between the Tiger and the Leopard 2 demonstrate how absurdly fast was the technology development during the cold war
There's also only 25 years between the first German Tank - the A7V - and the Tiger Tank.
Human innovation is crazy. There were only 66 years between the first flight in an airplane and the first person to step foot on the moon.

It's like an old veteran coming out with his walking stick and old costume on...you can see the age, but still looks badass and commands respect.
Oh yes true !
Costume? You mean uniform? Way to disrespect the men who fought for you

Tiger says "what have you done jr? hold my Jägermeister"
The Tiger and the Leopard are both legends. German engineering at it's best.
Das ist fantastisch ! Stalingrad -Balaton- Berlin! Tiger tod!;) Leopard = T -34 !;)
Not so much for the Leo. One needs to be in a war to see what one is capable off.
The wrong choice of a tank engine. Tiger needed a big diesel. That mb 37 liter sounds like its dying.
Its more germans overengineering at its worst. Jingles pointed out in his top 5 tank video why the T34 was superior - its simply enough of a tank.
@@saschacontes2305 Jingles is a fecking devil. He's as daft as a brush.
It doesn't matter which tank they are showing. When the Tiger appears it steals the show...
It does. Tiger and Sherman are probably the two most iconic tank in ww2.
@@SsSs-to4bb - you should include the T-34...
@D Dog 7 against 1 : 7 Shermans against 1 Tiger
The Tiger, the most feared tank in all of WW ll.

You know you are a Tiger lover when you see it pick up that little burst of speed and have tears in your eyes. I hope we can preserve these for a very long time to come. :)
you're crying over a fucking tank wtf
I couldn’t imagine how truly terrifying that must’ve been for the allies when they came across the first Tiger 1! To see it as an infantryman come out of nowhere must’ve scared the living shit out of them. Not to mention being in a Sherman and watching your shell bounce repeatedly off the front. A tigerTiger 1 is truly a monster!!
Fortunately there were not enough made to defeat the numbers of allied tanks that the Germans were up against.
Not for long mate. When the first 2 Maus came, they don't look that scary
@@sidah9871 yeah moving front with the maus is slow the the reverse is actually good to avoid being flanked
it was a monster, until the 76 shermans came in.
монстр был ис2
My great uncle drove in one of those Tigers. My grandmother would tell me the story of how proud she and the family was when they saw him the first time driving through their village and how amazed she was by the rumble of the engine and the sheer size of the tank.
Thank you for this interesting piece of personal family history that helps bring the story of the Tiger Tank alive.👍
@@HighFlight His name was Hans Wylezol.
@@Marauder1981 Thanks. Do you know which unit/ Regiment he was with?
@@HighFlight Oh all i saw as a child was a picture of him. And my grandmother wouldn´t know such stuff. I was actually quite amazed that she knew that it was a Tiger tank. You know young girls back in the days (Especially in the rural areas) wouldn´t know too much about technicalities.
@@Marauder1981 Thanks, I understand.
The Tiger I still has Fear Factor all these years later. Iconic design and it just screams power. Even alongside a Leopard, it does not look like an antique. Props to the men who devote their life to restoring WWII tanks, and we all know which is the one tank everyone wants from that era (besides the folks who prefer a Panther). Even though it was the war-winner, who really wants a T-34? You could probably still buy one cheaply somewhere in the old USSR. The Krauts built sexy beasts, just not enough of them.
Thanks for a very rare good comment and assessment of the rarity and historical significance of this museum exhibit.
Вы говорите что тигр был победителем войны? Скажите, вы какие таблетки принимаете? стоит что-то поменять. В общем-то, pz 6 был лузером войны, как и вся гитлеровская Германия, а сравнивать т-34 с тигром некорректно. т-34 надо сравнивать с pz 4. Сравнение будет далеко не в пользу последнего. А с тигром сравнивайте и ИС 2 с пушкой 120 мм или ИСУ 152, если знаете такие. Продолжайте восхищаться нацистской техникой , и бомбы снова полетят на Лондон и Ковентри
@@user-qe1uj7tl6w you dont even understand, he's saying that the t34 won the war, but the tiger is cooler.
@@lazyboii3459 Yes, I realized that I was wrong, sorry. These are the difficulties of translation and other construction of sentences in different languages. It is said that the T-34 is the winner, but it was produced in such a mass circulation that it is not interesting. Yes, they were made like buns. But this is their uniqueness - their cheapness and simplicity, like a tractor. And the PZ-6 destroyed the Third Reich economically.
@@user-qe1uj7tl6w Also engine exaust from the T34 can kill the crew
long after WW2 the Tiger tank is still very scary looking
Get it armed up, it still could do a lot of damage today.
@Silver Shroud wrong
@@jimmyuk007 Nah he is not wrong. The Tiger's 88 is indeed a powerful weapon, even by todays's standarts. Bar from main battle tanks and a few select other vehicles no other could withstand a frontal hit of this gun. From the side, the gun is still leathal to everything. However, the tiger's armors is compltely worthless in todays environment, pretty much everything can pen it. It's also slow, lacks modern fire control or a stabilized gun. So in this regard, it is pretty hopeless. That the IS2 or the Pershing were so much better though, that is indeed garbage
@Silver Shroud Words of wisedom .
Nope, correct
the TIGER is the TIGER , is THE TIGER for all times ! ...and yes, i know all about its design failures. but at least no other tank looks like the TIGER and shows so much pure migthy power...
Tiger tank family: If they dont break they'll fuck up your day
Its complexity is their downfall.
It weighs as much as a modern MBT and has a fraction of the protection. Always wondered how the hell they managed that.
By a thing called cutting corners
@@vincentcedric-4449 over-engineerd!
Now if they could add a Panther and King Tiger II to have all of the "Big Cats" in one place!!!
bartmansd71 you missed the Jagdtiger haha that thing is huge
@OptimalOptimus50 wen zum scheiss sollte das interessieren.
@Breezy Mods lmao
@Breezy Mods But when they fired, the allied crap had no chance
Bartmansd71 - The Germans have a Panther and the French a King Tiger.
Leopard I&II: Grandpa, how can you travel to so many countries without passport? Tiger I: Oh kids, that's a long long story.
At the family reunion, granddad still running is a bit of a miracle, but he got some awesome stories to tell.
Rookie driver that day, huh? Look at that lady in the radio hatch, she's smiling from ear to ear. You know she's loving every moment in that Tiger
She's the other cat...a cheshire cat....smiling.... all the way.
Great that they are wearing black overalls, I always think it spoils he moment a bit to see, say, a pink puffer jacket or a lime green hi-viz vest riding in these old vehicles.
Si j'étais à sa place, j'aurais des larmes de joie et de fierté.
Bovington has really improved the engine performance of the old cat since it was first restored and run some 15 years ago. When it first ran, it was very temperamental. Now it runs smoothly.
they should do a dyno run
I love cats. German cats are the best!
Is this the original Maybach engine? I dont think so, it must be some modern refit???????
@@bumblebob5979 they answered this question in a video but idk the name
@@bumblebob5979 It is the old engine. You can hear it by the sound. But they used good fuel.
@@marcelbork92 Define "good fuel". I think they'll toast the engine with this these fuel conditions. Also ruins realism. Aspen is on kill.

Leopard II for sure much more modern...but Tiger is something classic👍

@@AgonoshiiAgone This is the job of a tank as well as any military weapon.
Looks Gorgeous With the Wide-Tracks That's My Favorite thing about the Design of these Tanks
Wide tracks was specially designed for the mud and swamps of the Eastern Front. Earlier models of the german tanks, like Luchs, Pz 3 or 4 narrow tracks was designed according to initial Western Front needs : Blitzkrieg and existing paved roads.
I live near The Tank Museum. I go there regularly with my son and we just marvel at all the bits of machinery used for absolute destruction. Hearing them with their engines roaring helps me imagine what it would have been like hearing one back in the 1940's. Absolutely amazing.

@@jimscaggs2422 - ...To watch what's new on Facebook.
Nothing else makes me love tanks than the sound of the 131 engine
to be honest... if the Leo2 floor it and the 47l start singing u dont hear any other noise around... Leo2 is loud as fuck and it has a realy deep growl and if the driver lift the throttle the overboost noise is unbelivable.. sound wise it beats everything installed in tanks in the passed and today...and I heard many tanks
@@nagmashot leo 1 better.
ask jingles lol
@@saschabathorse2239 I dont care... I heard both long time in real World and Leo 2 Sound better... Leo 1 makes to many wired side noise like Track itchhhh itchhhh and it lacks the Turbo spoiling Sound and blow off and of course it lacks fundamental power
@@nagmashot true. i have heard it for a while too.i used to drive the t 64 bv for the ussr. (sometimes we would walk over to the american side and ask the germans to drive their leopards lol) we loved their tanks :p
Der Sound des Tiger-Motors macht mir Gänsehaut! Ich liebe es.🥰 Deutsche Wertarbeit 👍👍👍
Ich bin mir da garnicht sicher ob im Tiger 131 auch ein original Maybach HL 230 drinn ist der selbe Motor hört sich nämlich im Tiger 2 und im Panther in Saumur und auch im Panther und Jagdpanther von WTF gaaanz anderst an viel bissiger und Agresiver wie im Tiger 131! kzhead.info/sun/hNNyZqxwmZiVhWg/bejne.html kzhead.info/sun/p7aAga6EZ3OjpKs/bejne.html
Tiger 1 is great grandpa who survived in a wave of attacks, Konigstinger is grandpa who died from cancer while battling for Berlin, Leopard 1 the father who was under control in the cold war era, Leopard 2 was the child who's seeking training to be strong like his great grandpa.
Hail to the king
Unbelievable. I never thought a Tiger's engine runs so smoothly. And it actually had almost the same power as the MTU on the Leopard 1!
It's the same engine as was used in the Panther, and the Tiger II.
no it has not near the same power Tiger HL230 V12 petrol engine 700hp at 3000rpm...but the engine was operated normaly only with 600hp at 2.500rpm and 1.850Nm at 2.250rpm torque is btw more impotant in tank engine perfromance Leo 1 MTU 838 CaM 500 V10 diesel engine 830hp at 2.200rpm 2860Nm at 1.500rpm The MTU 838 engine has 230hp more at 300less rpm which is 1/3 more... and it has 1010 Nm more at 750rpm lower revs which is way more than a 1/3 more and most important it has the torque at much lower rpm... not talking about the Leo2 engine which has 3 time the torque with 4700Nm ... a Leo2 engine at idle speed has still more power than a Tiger engine reved to the max...
@@nagmashot _ I mentioned specifically the Leopard 1, for obvious reasons. Equally, I did not discuss torque. A torque comparison between gas and Diesel engines is without object. As for the Tiger power, according to my information it was close to 800 HP, which explains my claim.
Maybach Man 😎
but it is not saved from mechanical problems XD
Damn i see abrahams m1 tanks every day, but one Video of a tiger gives me goosebumps
Even today with lot of years on its back, the Tiger 1 still looks absolutely amazing! The craftmanship!... And the sound!
Ironic that it was the sheer complexity of the Tiger that proved to be it's downfall. Sheer weight of numbers beats craftsmanship in war.
@@thewomble1509 Not really. the Tiger didnt fail. it was just naturally replaced with the Tiger 2 due to new demands. But yes, it was ineffective to produce compared to the Panther and Tiger 2, but the German industry was better geared in 43-44 than it was in 42-43. So some of it is down to industry effectiveness that never reached the US, UK or Sovjet efficiency. But the Tiger 1 had more than a year of almost uncontested fighting. It was a Heavy break through tank and only build in small numbers. And where it was deployed it wrecked massive havoc from 42-43. A whole year in a 6 year war is massive advantage and makes up for all the flaws it had.
The Tiger is a masterpiece.
The Leopard 1 is such a fast tank. Leopard 2 as well. Amazing acceleration for modern tanks.
Perfect roars This is truly German's big "cats"
Yeah but i think the big mice would roar even louder
It's not a good roar, the roar of that tiger sounded like it was dying. Hopefully they fixed the engine, because that one is dying. Still a great tank and piece of history though.
@@SS-zd6yi You are mistaken, the Maus engine would sound much more quiet. Because it did not drive the vehicle directly.

That metallic squealing of the tracks must have sounded very creepy to an infantryman in a foxhole, especially knowing its coming from a 56 ton Tiger.

Also some Churchill and KV1’s is amazing
Now imagine if it had sloped armour like the t-34...
Just three infamously stopped the advance of a whole British armoured division, lucky they couldn't build more.
British, americans and russians are saying the german tanks of wermacht are not war machines THEY ARE MONSTERS. Some soldiers have deep fear and panic while facing tigers or panther tanks. Is the only part an allie soldier wiil shout loud "TIGER" "PANTHER TANK"
I drove that Leopard 1, 23A, in the early 80s in Germany.

I drove the 1A5 in the 90's in the german armee. I love my Leo ;-)
Glad to hear your service.
The tiger tank is a beautiful machine
Conducir un TIGER era todo un agrado segun comentarios de especialistas en temas historicos ya que los carros alemanes a partir de 1941 ya ESTABAN EQUIPADOS CON TRANSMISIONES AUTOMATICAS HIDROESTATICAS , ademas que se elimino ese sistema de palancas para la direccion a cambio de un semivolante tipo medialuna muy similar a los sistemas de conduccion de algunos cargadores frontales modernos de direccion articulada . Debio ser una gran novedad para quienes capturaron este tipo de maquinas especialmente los rusos ya que su famoso T 34 estaba equipado con un sistema de palancas y su suspension a base de barras de torsion tenian la desagradable tendencia a transmitir las vibraciones a las palancas del conductor , ademas una transmision manual sin sincronizar que era irritante . No es novedad que los modelos rusos posteriores llevaran este tipo de transmision copiado a los alemanes pero tambien con los defectos propios de la ingenieria inversa mal hecha.....saludos
Family reunion
The Tiger was the prematurely born parent of all main battle tanks. They forced the Allies to produce Tiger killers at a great research and developement cost just to counter a single threat. A good strategy it also set the bar for the next generation of MBT"s
Nope and double nope. It was designed as a heavy break trough tank pushed into the general battle tank role due to necessity. The allies didn't counter a single threat, they realized that "oh shit tank design is really accelerating we need better stuff NOW" just like every other participant of WW2.
Secure White Existence I agree. Others say the Panther but you’re right on with your assessment. Look at all MBTs now and they are all heavily armored and armed and weigh in the same ballpark as the Tiger.
@Secure White Existence It's role was not anti air. It had a MG34 for self defence, whose 7.92 mauser ammunition was not very effective against contemporary fighters and fighter-bombers.
I'd argue medium tanks like the Sherman, PzIV and T34 were actually the grandfathers of the MBT's. A good, balanced mix of armor, firepower and mobility. Versatility, reliability and commonality. In the 50's tank development reached a point where armor advances couldn't keep up with the advances in ammunition. Armor plates rapidly became obsolete, instead designers went in the direction of mobility to avoid being hit altogether. This is also the time where the traditional heavy tanks like the IS-series went out of favor while the medium tanks of the day (T54/55 to keep with my Russian example) slotted into the MBT role and were further developed in this direction.
@Secure White Existence They weren't intended to when they entered service. Like I mentioned, the medium tank only really evolved into the MBT in the 50's with the rise of ATGM and discarding sabot, which made heavy tanks obsolete in an instant. Still, even in WW2 there's a very clear change for the medium tank across the board, later versions of which were all fitted with long-barrel high velocity guns to better be able to deal with enemy armor. Because even if they weren't originally intended to, they still ended up in tank on tank combat sometimes. Also, it should be noted that even today an MBT's main role isn't engaging enemy tanks, it's main role is still punching holes and exploiting them. Taking out the enemy's tanks by way of air, artillery or infantry using ATGM's is often much more (cost) effective than entering a slugging match. However this doesn't mean a tank shouldn't be equiped to deal with other tanks and do it well.
Great to see it run at speed and to see the smooth steering mechanism in action.
Since everybody else is giving an opinion of the Tiger, I might as well contribute: The Tiger is a good tank with a few caveats. It had a powerful gun and good armour, so of course it was a formidable opponent against any other tank on the battlefield, but with its high fuel consumption, mechanical issues and slow traversing, the Tiger was not good on the offensive.
the Tiger had not more reliablity issues than other ww2 tank...in fact it was much more reliable than the russian T-34 which was other than propaganda claimed a pack full of failures on tracks... engine lifetime often ends after 30hours of use... the ammount of tanks that left the factory without any major issue was at 8% at war begin and improved to 25% by war end...means 75% of all T-34 left factory with a major failure that needed to be fixed by field mechanics befor it could run into battle... and btw... two T-34 already consume more than one Tiger... and need twice the number of crew and are not equal as good. Germanys biggest handicap was the constant lack of fuel ...Germany lost most of its tanks because they run out of fuel... not because of enemy action or mechanical failure... btw the most unreliable tanks of ww2 were all british used during the africa campain were many broke down befor they emptyed their first tank of fuel
@@nagmashot the Tiger 1 was moderately reliable, but it was very difficult to maintain and repair. Stuff such as it's interleaving roadwheels and it's transmission WORKED decently, but when it was time to repair or service it, the Germans just couldn't do it.
@@nagmashot Well, when you have to charge so fast because your enemy are running away, these things will happen...
@@SVNLVN utterly crap claim... you did not even notice that the Germans changed the roadwheel design (which was adressed to the fact that Germany lacked rubber for wide road wheels, they used synthetic rubber which had a very poor lifetime).... they changed the layout of the roadwheels and the roadwheel design from Schachtellaufwerk to Staffellaufwerk... wich was later used at the Tiger2 and planed for the Panther 2. With a Staffellaufwerk there was no need to unscrew the outer wheels for train transport and getting access to the inner wheels was less time consuming. Allied after war reports claimed something different ... in a frensh report they claimed the German maintenance units did magic to keep the Panther tsnks rolling taken into account under what conditions they had to work...and no there was nothing a field shop could not repair...expect a totaly destroyed tank... replacing a transmission engine gun optics radio etc. was their daily bussiness
Tigers in all it's variants where not ment to run after other armored vehicles, they had to support the smaller tanks from a distance or ambush transfering columns of armored vehicles sitting in bushes
The other tanks are cool, but I gotta say. Tiger 1 steals the show! Any King Tigers still existing?
There's a King Tiger in this museum and a second was also on loan and display there recently and may still be there. They used the Maybach engine from the museum's one to run this Tiger 1. I'm guessing that one day they'll also run their King Tiger. There's a working King Tiger at a museum in France. A UK collector also has a project to rebuild one in running condition from recovered parts. There is at least one other restoration to running order project and a number of others in museums. Surviving vehicles/projects are listed here:- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiger_II

I think that the Tiger's sound at 3:25 is awesome. 😄
Gorgeous sound from the MTU V12 in Leopard 2
13:30 oooff thats gotta have a lot of cleaning. Maybe disassemble the entire track and wheels to fully cleaned it for it to preserve. Also look at that road lol the tracks are carving it 😂 kudos to the people who preserve this beauty. Damn I love tanks ❤️
A bit of water pressure washing will see that nice and clean again. That roadway is very resilient as it has to resist a lot of tanks, some of which are far heavier than a Tiger 1 - solid reinforced concrete. If that was tarmac it would be a different story!👍🙃
leopard 2: hello grandpa, do you want to take a nap? tiger 1: *nuckle crack* a real old man would never die leopard 2: as you wish
The Tiger survived more than 75 years having to face this driver finally?
It can handle it. It's a Tiger. Its last crew ditched it in the desert.
I suspect its not easy to gain experience on a tank when the survivors are so few....
@Oliver Viehland Hmmm,.. alot of people insisting that the Tiger tank has this weak drivetrain. Yet,..it didn't break , did it ? Also , isn't the gearbox an automatic ? Also, where did you learn to drive a Tiger tank ? I mean , I drive trucks and I used to drive APC (439) when I was in the army, way back when, so I guess you could say I'm a professional driver with a little experience on tracked vehicles, and I wouldn't go criticizing this guys performance. Not that I've ever driven an actual tank or anything , I've never touched a chieftain or a challenger for instance. So it does seem a bit strange you telling everyone how to drive a tiger tank, to me at least..

Era poco fiable y consumia demasiado combustible, ademas de otros problemas logisticos que producia, como el transporte. Si tuviera que elegir el mejor tanque de la ww2 probablemente diria los panzer 4 o la linea de los stug Pd: voy a llamar a porsche a ver si les queda algun modelo de tiger en su stock XP
@@mikipari1 🤣🤣si les queda me avisas.. necesito uno para ir a comprar la marieta
@@oniecchi cuando tienes que comprar a las 5 e invadir stalingrado a las 6
Es mi favorito, por puro gusto, pero por versatilidad son mejores los Panther, Panzer 4 y los Stug

Watching this Tiger now, in 2019, I find it rather hard to believe that in fact it is a 1943 beast...! One could assume it's a late '90s or early 2000s design...! so different from the rest of the WW2 armor crap of the Allied nations.
Star Gazer the tiger was actually conceived in the mid 1930s, believe it or not
@@mattheuston9363 - ...but it only rolled out of the production line in 1943.
tiger looks like '90s 2000s design? XD
1942

love tiger 1 early the most !!
The Tiger is a part of the german history, the Leo is our future.
Somebody should start manufacturing mock-ups of this Tiger and sell them...I bet they would sell every one of them and would profit nicely !
gears was weak strip a gear in a hurry.
Браво за интересното видео !!! Благодаря !
Благодаря, ми е удоволствие.

I was there at 2018 aswell remember all of this ^^ thnx for the good memories. The dutch driver of that leo 2 was having fun out there :P
Glad you liked this and it brought back those memories. You're certainly right about the Leo 2 driver!👍
the one moment the Leo2 real floored for a few moments .... we come a long way
I once touched a moon rock, at the Smithsonian, yet if I had the choice, I’d much rather spend a few moments next to a Tiger tank. Hearing it run, and watching the tracks chew up the soil? I can’t imagine.
Тигр- Супертанк второй мировой войны, ему не было равных!
IS-2: hello
Verdammt gutaussehend so ein Tiger. Würde gerne in echt sehen so ein Ding. Absolut genial.
Fantastiskt museum. Jag har varit på de två senaste Tank Fest och kommer dra dit nästa år igen.
2 Legenden unter sich 👍🏻💪🏻 den Tiger hab ich von Cobi
Hab auch einen von cobi, Bau ich demnächst auf. Bin grad mit der Heinkel HE 111 fertig geworden ☺️
When next to the leopards that tiger is still huge. Can see why the allies feared the beast. Awesum video.
It has much smaller dimensions when comparing the X and the Y axis with the Leopard 2's but it is significantly taller, which could be a bad or good thing.
I'm sorry for being a party pooper 🙁
Lower pro file on a tanks is much ,much better.make yourself smallest target possible. Wittman said whoevet shoots first usuallly wind the engagement.
when do you upload the the combat part?
The guys in the tiger could at least dress up in proper panzer black gear - would look wicked!!
Need to be wearing the ww2 black berets.
SS uniforms?
@@nelsoncobos182 ss colours are "feldgrau" only the panzer heer had black uniforms and the skull ...
The Leopard 2 crew is dressed in original KL Cavalerie uniforms. Got one in my wardrobe as an ex Leo 2a4 gunner.
I'd like to see them in historical clothes. And of course then that woman must give way. ;-)
Tiger - best tank ever! :-) Vielleicht sollte jemand mal den Briten zeigen, wie man so ein Koloss steuert? :-))
Die Briten scheinen es gut kontrollieren zu können! :))
Me: My family reunions suck! Rheinmetall: For you perhaps,
Would anyone know where to get a good set of sound samples from a Leopard 1 / Gepard Engine running at various speeds ( stationary or running ) for use with a RC-Tank Sound Module? I've finished building my Gepard 1A2 but the Soundfiles it ships with are all over the place - I'm not even sure they're actual Leopard 1 / Gepard sound files to begin with but the sudden change in tone from starting the engine to running in idle and running is jarring...
2:10 **Hans, ze transmission broke.**
except,.....it didn't. Huh ! weird , right ?! That;s gotta get under your skin every time they take her out..
*No worry, jutz ze stall.*
No comparison of course between the three, but there is something raw and virile about the Tiger.
Saw an M-60A1 among the tanks in the background. I wonder if Bovington has an M-60, M-60A2 and an M-60A3. I was the loader or driver depending on the year and whether I was on the Platoon Leader's or the Platoon Sergeant's tank. When we had the M-60A3 I was mostly the driver. I crewed on the M-60 and the M-60A3.
They do. See here - kzhead.info/sun/et6NXbGur4mbqas/bejne.html and kzhead.info/sun/o9GbkthtmYWbYJE/bejne.html
Tiger 131❤
Tiger 131's wikipedia page is awesome night lecture...
no music means real sound. thx!
YOU_ MUST_DIE Let the tanks play their own music instead.
Does the Horizontal Drive work? I've never seen them traverse the Turret.
Excellent hunter.The leopard 2 is impressive with it gyro stabilized turret.
it's interesting to me just how much quieter the modern MBT's are in compared to the Tiger.
A lot easier to get the drop on the bad guys if they don’t hear you. In fact the AGT-1500 gas turbine in the M1 Abrams was virtually whisper quiet, hence how it got the nickname ‘Whispering Death’.
You know the Tiger is tired from WWll when it can't even turn on the spot anymore. May this Tiger live on.
