BT7 is designed on Chriestie's suspension system. You should read more info about how USSR buyed this technology. The first country which wanted to buy this system was Poland but Walter Chriestie few days after signed agreement of, sold it once again for Russians, and sended secretly 2 prototypes to Soviet Union. But as a tank BT 7 was good, fast and very disturbing to enemy.
And to the movie. Very good and curious. Theres a lot of old wrecks in rivers, lakes. Especially in russia. So every found Tiger or MS1 is a reason to search how is story that it can tell...
BTW. Russian red army taked 80% of wehrmacht force, but we still forget how important was Land Lease program. Witchout help from USA and UK russians after first month german blitzkrieg has no weapon resources to fight. Big numbers of russian tanks, cannons was captured by nazis. Then before Soviets could start massive production their weapons on Ural help from west was their last hope.
Russia made the best tanks in WW2 they where only matched near the end of the war, the only reason they didn't do better in the battles is that the crew had hardly any training compared to the German's.
@darnjack0roll No in winter war and being waffen ss puppet during 2ww finns got owned and lost their prestige and territory now they just keep silence and stay away.
@DeathSetler puppet? finns got owned? hmm,lets see,who had only 10 000 casualties while other had 100 000 hmm,who attacked an enemy 100 times smaller than itself,and still lost more casdualties,hmmm,MAYBE it was the sucky soviet union!! hahaha!
and u said finland keeps being quiet eh? what should it do then? attack russia? go to war against usa? ur a troll commie,get used to your new cool non-communist russia
@darnjack0roll too many questions and spam lol! reorganized soviet army destroyed Nazi Germany, freed Europe, completely crashed 1000,000 Japanese army and this for 5 years! and what did u do? ha ha! Being Nazi puppet u have already attacked USSR and failed!
and u said Finland keeps being quiet eh? - no they understood that there would be much better just to stay away from the big game of mighty countries.
@DeathSetler hoo,ur a commie for sure,and finland didnt failed in its plans,plus u fag,cant u understand that it took 4 mighty countries to take down germany,ur taking all the credit from it,finns werent nazis,they werent axis either,they didnt wrote a pact where they would become an axi nation,u failed,u really dont know a shit about your country
@darnjack0roll No I'm nationalist but a hate fascism. U speak about "4 mighty countries" - when Germany started to expand they just kept silence, Finland it was ok. But they did wanted Germany to attack Russia. When Germany went to their borders 2 mighty countries opened 2nd front to prevent further Russian expansion and probably to start a new war against it. Finland had contacts with Germany from 30th and the influence was high. THEY wanted to get their territory back but they failed so it is.
@darnjack0roll fuc* yr self with the yr casualties, why should u care about OUR losses?, have nothing to to say? we gained Karelia and some cities and we will never get u back it. Even now many fins share the ideology of fascism and u cannot deny it. Ok according to national principals we increase our population to cover former losses!
30 000 men,russia lost 1 000 000,so,fail for weak russia - bullshit this is Jewish count - 300000 dead against 50000 dead in Finland + wounded (1 million dead u r stupid there was not some much people of both armies for 2 years of war). Probably u read much about it in ur Jewish-nazi-finish books.
@DeathSetler u suck,100 000 000 ruskies died in that war,i dont know how well u have been brainwashed by communist propaganda,but sviet union sucks ass
@MrRythmeen where did u get your facts from?? the germans never lost 7.000000 soldiers. only about 3.5 million. only 8 million germans were stationed at the eastern front during the "entire" war. so go read factual books
@MrRythmeen USSR (russia) lost winter war,russia tried to capture WHOLE finland,and failed in it,and finland was only trying to defend its whole countrys independence,not those areas that you ruskies got. and you soviets sucked in war btw, so many casualties.....
bull shit - reason of war was part of finnish territory near Leningrad to push boarders away from the city.
Casualities it's not your business- peace was sighned in spring 1940 according USSR interests and conditions, not Finnish. Finland was actually defeted- it's fact. Winter war gave to Red Army experience - before nazi invade it was very useful.
@MrRythmeen stalin gave an order for his *comanders* to conguer whole finland TWICE. plus finland was no threat to leningrad,it was proven in the siege of leningrad when finns refused join it
но даже этот как вы выражаетесь не какой конкурент нацистским танкам потому как против нас воевали не только немецкие машины внес большой вклад в ПОБЕДУ
Very interesting interior and an excellent job in restoring this old BT7, but at least also curious the kind how you salvaged the tank :? including tons of water inside :D instead of sealing and evacuating the interior before. Try this on sunken ships :)=)
На 1-й Боровухе в озере между "Полтинником" и танкистами тоже танк лежит. Но чей-не знаю. В 1988-м он был еще там. (Витебская обл. Полоцкий р. аэродром Боровцы).
Although I more prefer german tanks a salute and credit has to go to the people who salvaged and restored this bautifull piece of history to fully working order.
A great job and i hope they keep this work up, such oldies deserved to be restored and driven around to remind people of wwII.
I am so envious of you russians- I dont think I would ever find a buried tank in my home country...
