  • Nicely done. A nice balance of armour photos and some never seen before. Great choice in music too.

  • Новые пророчества выявить глобальные события в преддверии Второго пришествия  thewarningsecondcoming com

  • i think someone may like my video!

  • But obviously God did not to forgot the Russian people, in His purpose was not the extermination or the annihilation of the Russians, so, in His providence, He provided the Russians with a great brave heart and heroic disposition, and also with the best general of all the WWII, Georgi Konstantínovich Zhúkov. And at the proper time He used the Russians to stop the Roman monster in Germany. Because the Russians carried almost the entire weight of the war.

  • @ARYZerubbabel ¿? You are a crazy man that doesnt use his reason.¿God? As nietzche said we have to kill him :D

  • @Vanluisteas Precisely Nietzche and many like him corrupted many of the German people turning them a worldly herd of fools that can bu used as meat for the cannons. Behind the great catastrophes of war we always find perverse people filling the minds of the peoples with worldly vain and stupid ideas. For example, who was behind the war of the English against the Boers, Cecil John Rhodes because he believed that the Anglo-Saxon race was destined to greatness.

  • Who was behind WWII, Hitler, because he believes that Germans were a superior people (much of modern German philosophy here). Also the communist were behind the war, because they believed that their false philosophy was superior also. We always find behind the tragedies of humanity the incredible arrogance of men that finally turn to be heads and great influence on governments that end bringing tragedy to the peoples that also are drinking of garbage human philosophies of life (or dead).

  • And GOD let them go their ways so as to bring the world more near the time when GOD, by Jesus itself, will take over this world with a supernatural angelic storming, stopping finally human madness.

  • @ARYZerubbabel Some people that are as crazy as you have made bigger catastrophes,Religion has killed more people thanany war.

  • @Vanluisteas Sincerely, I am not interested in defending "religion", I only defend the truth of eternal salvation throughout the sacrifice of the Son of God. So I am the wrong person if you want to attack religion. If we are honest, we must point out that the conflicts between religion and atheism is the latest development that bring the greatest catastrophe in history in millions of dead ones. So it is a little unbalanced for an atheist to present themselves as innocent outsiders.

  • @ARYZerubbabel Sorry but in one of your answers you said that Nietzches ideas tuned german people a worldly herd of fools that can be used as a meat for the cannons,so jesus is the same ;) i dont change my mind u are a crazy man like all people who believe like u

  • @Vanluisteas When I mentioned Nietzche I only wanted to point out the great damage that worldly philosophies did against many millions of the German people, it was not my intention to dismiss or to be disrespectful with Germany. Personally I have a debt of gratitude with the Protestants, baptists, and evangelicals of Germany, England, EEUU, the Nordic Countries. Thanks to their historic influence the message of salvation reached to me. Thanks Germany, I love you.

  • @Vanluisteas I understand that you are from Spain. I am hearing that in Spain the atheists are taking a very fanatical stance. I believe that with your abortion and immoral law proposals, you only are strengthening the Catholic Church giving it the opportunity to look good before your atrocities. As a Christian I reject the heresies of damnation that Rome is teaching, but the proposals of atheism are looking even worse than Rome in many respects! Christians will go away from Rome and Atheism.

  • God used all this disaster to punish communism, it is obvious by the giant number of death of the poor Russian people, but God have no forgotten the devil behind this and have prepared the GREATEST and definitive judgment and final damnation for Rome, appointed for the end moment of the Apocalyptic end.

  • The name of this game is LET THE PROTESTANTS TO MAKE WAR AND DESTROY THEMSELVES. It is the astute and clever game of the devil that Rome always is very happy to play. Protestants of England and Germany should be very careful and not to let being fooled anymore by the devil in such a horrible manner. And what a nice may have been for the devil when thousands of protestant Germans did perish in Russia under the despairing and evil leadership of Catholic Hitler.

  • At the same time, protestant Germany, having being unified with a Catholic part of Germany, prepared the way to disaster, to be conducted throughout strange paths completely incompatible with protestant faith and goals. So when the worldly Nazis take the power, with the acceptance and support of Rome (Mussolini and also the Pope), it is not strange that millions of protestants were so conducted to make war against another brethren of another countries.

  • The war against the Boers show us the horrible use of concentration camps, and more horribly thing, such thing was done by a protestant country against another protestant people. That was a horrible national sin of England that had to be paid. The first and second world wars being the payment.

  • If we consider the God´s viewpoint we can see how God blessed protestant England when he helped the protestant Dutch being oppressed by the repressive inquisitorial forces of Catholics. God blessed England and Elizabeth I with a great victory against the "Invincible Army" of the Catholic Empire. Sadly enough, England was duped by some horribly worldly interest that drive her to make war against another protestants, being the lower point the war against the protestant Boers.

  • Ttäuscht euch nicht selbst. Weder die Russen noch die Deutschen kämpften für die «gerechte» Sache. Beide kämpften unter dem Banner Satans: dem Hakenkreuz und dem Pentagramm (Fünfzackstern). Graumsamkeit und Unheil auf beiden Seiten. Verantwortlungslos wurde junges Leben der Kriegsfurie geopfert! Genau wie heute im Mittleren Osten.... Wehrt euch gegen die kriegstreibenden Politiker und Finanzwelt!!!

  • Hail the great German soldiers trying to protect Germany, Europe and the whole world from the Central Asian communist barbarians! 

  • @demurat actually Germany just wanted the whole world for itself.

  • Es waren Helden auf beiden Seiten

  • Thank you. I live in Kursk. It's been awhile since I've been to the Central Command Hdqrs for the KTBattle but I'll be taking visitors in a few weeks. Would you mind if I took this video to the little museum there? I've always thought they could use 'technical' help to make it more informative for foreign visitors. Until we went with a WWII expert (he was 17!) who knew what questions to ask, we didn't get the full import of that battle and the tremendous suffering & sacrifice of the people.

  • @pammyciew

    Just make sure not to descredit german soldiers. However do with Hitler n stuff whatever you want, but the single and common soldier had to suffer. On both sides. Just stay objective.

  • What is the music?

  • It remains both the largest series of armored clashes, including the Battle of Prokhorovka, and the costliest single day of aerial warfare.

    INCLUDING Prokhorovka. The Battle of Kursk is known for the biggest arms clash, The battle of Prokhoroka was just one battle.

  • @Sp3tsnazFTW :it certainly was a critical battle, and one from which the germans never recovered. however as for largest? the german front from south was 7 kilometres wide. allowing for a spacing of 100 metres between tanks (re massed russian artlllery), that means a front of 70 tanks.

    a very few made their objectives, certainly the kursk railway, but the germans had logistical malfunctions within the massed russian defences, and were comprehensively outflanked. good job.

  • Well you can say I make a living studying tactics "Semper Fi"

  • The battle at Prokhorovka as the largest tank battle in history is simply just a myth. Germans had 92-109 APV's and russians maximum 393 between 10.7-12.7.43 In fact, it is smaller than a battle that took place between the French and the Germans in 1940. In front of Gembloux on May 14-15, two full-strength Panzer divisions (each with about 300 tanks) squared off with two full-strength French Light Mechanized Divisions (each with about 260 tanks).

  • The Germans did not fail, however, due to a defeat at Prokhorovka. There was no "death ride of the panzers" on July 11 and 12. Nor was there a very big battle on those dates. It's time to put to rest the fanciful notions of waves of Tiger and Panther tanks riding across the dry, dusty plains to do battle with Soviet tanks at point-blank range.

    It just didn't happen.

  • Excellent and unbiased video, great job thanks. As far as the Armchair General's rants... typical.

  • its funny when Americans think their so Epic because their the Richest country in the world and Make Movies of WW2 showing Them in Africa Pacific and France but really England and Russia did most of the job! england fought the whole african war (the US Came but the Germans were already in tunisa) the Brits fought in China and Europe and the USSR lost many many many many many men

  • @jasincl so America didnt do much of the fighting but got all the Glory!

  • not so very nice to bash the USA. Without the americans the soviet army would not have stand a chanche against the german army.

  • The Germans did a good job at the Battle of Kursk but the numbers were against them the Russian just out numbered them with men tanks planes and artillery by a long shot .. It's always a rule to have 3 to 1 advantage when on the offensive also the Russian had been given to much time to prepare their defense...

  • @Clink1371James OOOOOOOOOOO so you know a little bit about tactics? Russians laid alot mines tooo

  • Great job! This video is great :)

    The wehrmacht may have lost the battle, but the soviets losted much more man and tanks =D

  • @MyraiTrunks

    sorry, but neider the germans nore the sowiets lost the battle.....

    read a history book!

  • @MyraiTrunks Your right but the Soviets could afford to.

  • @Clink1371James Yes they could the numbers that the Russian were producing was insane. The numbers of tanks that the Russian had I believe was something in the order of 600+, also the Russian just didn’t care how much they lost it was all about winning

  • Acurate photograpy, and the first five and a half minutes of the music score is inspirational. Can anyone tell me what it is ?

  • what is the name of the song

  • ВЕЧНАЯ ПАМЯТЬ РОССИЙСКИМ ГЕРОЯМ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • The balance of deaths show us that the principal chastised nation was THE U.R.S.S. Then we conclude that GOD HATE COMMUNISM. Nazism pertain to Rome, that will be judged at her proper time. But the Wehrmatch did the work of God, NO MATTER IF IT LIKE YOU OR NOT, OR IF YOU BELIEVE IN GOD OR NOT!

  • Then became evil themselves and US saved humankind

  • @joesjoes20 Idiot ! The US along with German capitalists did grow up the NAZIs! It even began 10 Jan 1919 when the antibolshevistfonds of the German Corporations and industry associations was founded - nominal 500 millions of Reichsmark ! Private armies were build up to shot down German Soviets and any nationalist group, propaganda or project was founded and created. One of the results was inm Feb 1920 Hitlers NSDAP. NAZISm was intentionally created to crash down socialism in Europe.

  • @edgar0001 Nazi didn't start from germany. The basis of Nazism started in italy (facism). And Hitler saw "il Duce" as his idol. Hitler was elected to power because the people trusted that he would improve the economy. The economy was crushed after ww1 to the point where  thousands of marks would be worth around the amount of a few cents. You say they shot nationlists. facists r nationlists. Only part of your statement is true.

  • everyone on here is bat shit crazy, the wars over, i just study the battles

  • @skinheadted1969 History is a unity governed by God from the beginning to the end, WWII is over, but the causes and goals that produced it are not over. Jesus punished the World, specially Europe, Russia, and Japan. And as I have said God used an incredible Army, whose base was Christian, to carry the movement. It was necessary the confabulation of Russia, Great Britain, and the U.S. to stop the Germans.

  • After the war begun the stupid burst of movies depicting the Americans and English as the heroes. How can be heroes the guys that attacked Germany from her back at the exact moment when the Germans where sacrificing themselves fighting the communist hordes? But perhaps it was necessary, because the intention of God was that the future generations may recognize the true heroes in the Germans. And the stupid opportunist ones in Great Britain and the U.S.

  • For God nothing is over till all history is completed and the final judgment can be done. The sins of the nations are piling up and the responses of God are coming to the encounter of the nations. Then, after the last conflicts, will come Jesus and will subdue His last enemies still remaining.

  • So, for example, The British empire did a genocide of Christians, the Boers, that was not good! They did say "it is over", but it was not so. Then WWI comes, preparing the Germans for a reaction of wrath, then WWII comes, after it the British colonialism is over (colonialism that distorted in the genocide against the Boers). And Communism get ruined by the Wehrmatch.

  • And the thing is not over still! What do you believe God will do with the U.S. That did not help, but attacked the Germans when they were combating Communism against the hordes in the same Soviet Union? God will do something with the U.S.

  • @ARYZerubbabel i don't believe in an invisible man and dont get me wrong a hate communism, but id rather take communism over a genocidal fascist regime anyday, and im pretty sure Hitler just used god as a cover to somehow justify his actions.

  • @skinheadted1969 The Lord do not commit errors, he used the brutal leadership of Hitler to conduct an incredible judgment carried on by the super efficient Wehrmatch (Just like He used the antique King of Babbilon to carry a judgement against the nations of the Mid East in the past, including the then rebel Judah). And the Wehrmacht was formed by superefficient CHRISTIANS from the Lutherans, mainly, and by the Christian lost withing Catholicism, and by unvelievers forming the Catholic mass.

  • And I believe that never again will be another army like such. The Wehrmatch will stand alone forever to the astonishing of the eternal generations. Never again.

  • I believe that never again will be another army like such. The Wehrmatch will stand alone forever to the astonishing of the eternal generations.

  • Glory and honor to the Lord, glory and honor the the brethren now with the Lord, all those glorious brethren that were withing the Wehrmacht. They are now forming part of the cloud of witnesses that look and see from the highest toward the battle now being battled by the fighting Christians that do not surrender to the world.

  • But even the Hitler errors were withing the will of God, Who by His mercy toward the Russians did not allow His saints to exterminate completely the people of Russia. But evidently enough, Russian communist were clearly signaled as an evil and ill fated leadership, being marked by millions of people killed by themselves and the millions killed by the army of God, the Wehrmatch.

  • God does not commit errors, the Wehrmacht was an army of God, its base was the Lutheran Protestant Prussian military tradition, and the efficient, astonishing, incredible, admirable, action of this unique army, combating against three superpowers, and destroying to the utmost the power of Russian communism, is recorded in Heaven as one of the most stupendous judgment of God poured on the evil humanity of such time.

  • And God used primarily His own saints, millions of true believers in Jesus from withing the Lutherans, the most heroic young Christians of all times, carrying the purposes of God against the world, and even despite the poor leadership of a paranoid and too melodramatic Hitler, who did not ear his generals when it was doubt.

  • Thats funny. Not USSR saved Europe from nazis, but Nazis did from USSR.

    Stalin was prepared to invade Europe in 1941, aerodromes made on border, lots of BT model tanks on trains, massive ammunition and troops assigned within edge of the border. It was Stalin's vision, he dreamed from early days. And believe me , nazis was milion times better than Red Army

  • @EasternEuropean86 You are absolutely right!!! Russians were the most primitive animals who raped thousands of innocent civilan women and killed the most innocent people ( Mainly women and children)! America also killed millions of civilans by completely destroying many cities and towns. Germany and Hungary just wanted order and culture in Europe and save it from cionism and communism!!! Never forget that Usa also supplied the russian army!

  • @EasternEuropean86 ты просто глупый ганс. нас убили 20000000 человек. ты свой язык съешь, я тебя звставлю

  • Don't forget what America achieved as well. Its a shame the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. could not have put their differences aside after the great war.

  • Greetings to Peter Hansen, the only one Chilean and one of the few South Americans who belonged to the Waffen SS with the highest military ranks .. and was one of the few generals who were not accused of war crimes ...

    He could not return to Chile after the war ...

    You can not be honored, the censorship of the winners ..

    but we will always remember

  • And one must say, the russian won that war. But many of the russian cassualties were unneccesary and blame the mad orders of stalin.

    A more prudent commander could have saved a lot of russian suffering.

    Nevertheless it was the million and million russian soldiers fighting, who brought down the 3. Reich. Mostly for the good of people in western europe and the US.

    It is an irony that the russian people suffered allmost as casualties through Stalins rule after the end of the war.

  • Another question is could the Russians have won on their own without British, Commonwealth and US support? Unlikely IMHO.

  • i am no war expert but it always makes me wonder why would,they right in the middle of almost beating england,during the battle of britain turn there armies eastwards to attact russian,and have a war on two fronts seems ,,(no expert explain to me why ?)really silly,when it would of made more sense to finsh what they was doing first then attact east(not saying doing that was right,i think attacking anyone was wrong in the first place but)???

  • @n1hmrd Because Hitler believed that the russians are "untermenschen", Hitler believed that Germany will defeat Russia in a few months...

  • @nurmiar hmm yes ,as it seems was a mistake on his part,russia is so huge a country to conquer so quickly ,would need a much better advantage then,anything they had at the time,logically thinking of course.

  • @n1hmrd So the germans need good weather, exclude winter until the germans have conquered Russia..also the germans need a much smaller country to conquer..then they maybe had succed.The germans always blame : winter, Hitler or that Russia got help from USA...but, in the summer of 1941 USA was not in the war..at Moscow 1941 USA was not in war...altough Sjukov managed to not only stop the german offensive..but also counter attack..and this counter attack nearly crushed the germans

  • @nurmiar thank god Sjukov did too :) too true always with the excuses,the solid truth of the matter is the russian army was suprised at the start,but in the end just as you say,showed it was a more skilled,larger ,better commanded army.

  • @n1hmrd Hitler knew that Russia (SU) will not just watch fail of England.

    In that case second front will opened from Russian side.

    In 1941 Russia was not prepared to war. And Hitler wished to outstrip the time of preparation and mobilisation of RKKA and Industry.

    Sory my Engl.

  • Für den Sommer 1941 verfügte die UdSSR über Pläne eines agressiven Eroberungskrieges gegen Westeuropa, um weitere Sowjetrepubliken zu anektieren.

    ...sie führte nicht einen "großen vaterländischen Verteidigungskrieg", sondern einen Eroberungskrieg, dem Deutschland mit einem Präventivkrieg 14 Tage zuvorkam,m.E.zuvorkommen mußte, um eine reelle Chance zu haben. Hinweis auf Historiker Danilow und Orlow

  • @Rico8458 Americans too then?

  • What is the music used to score this?

  • @AngelsAte There are two themes here: 1) The Overture to Romeo and Juliet by Tchaikovsky and 2) "March of the Knights" (also known as "Montagues and Capulets") from Romeo and Juliet by Prokofiev.

  • JEBAŁ WAS PIES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • that makes sense, weren't as good as the russian tanks...but we gave them alot of trucks, which they needed

  • @CaptJackSparrow4u Nearly every truck the Russians used was American. Over 125,000 American trucks were sent over there under Lend Lease. That was the only way they were able to supply their armies as they pushed the Germans back from 1943-1945.

  • @jackzero99 bull shit,check you knowledge. By Lend Lease USA sent 12700 tanks only. Most video and photo from east front with T-34! The best tank and mostly mass product -35467 tanks.You can find T-34 with german svastika on bord on Kursk battle.And do you know how many money got USA by Lend Lease from USSR?11,300,000.USD

    What about help to GB from USA?31,400,000.USD!When our people die,americans made money.

  • @demon333roboclub sorry your english is so bad. read my post again. i'm talking about trucks, not tanks. your people didn't have to buy those trucks, fuel, or food. what did your people do when the germans invaded france and poland?

  • @jackzero99 you right,my mistake...truks were 375 883 but it's not for battle,only "Katusha" used chassis from "Studebeker".Nobody did nothing when Hitler invaded Chehoslovakia,then was Poland and France and GB still were very quietly.And at this moment the USSR had no friendship with France and Poland and no agriment about help.But russian soldiers help a lot in Spain against nazi in 1937.

  • Grant tanks and british bren gun carriers??

  • the su rec'd grant tanks from the us thru lendlease, but russian tankers didn't like them very much.

  • YES, they were used in small numbers.

  • eeeeeeeeee

  • tanque pupu...nene malo......

  • eeee

  • Hoch lebe Russland .Hoch lebe Deutschland !

    Ramasti

  • What a tragedy for us Europeans!Look at the modern world and note how completely fucked up it is.For fear of being branded and agressor or "inhuman" or even worse a "nazii" we allow ourselves to be overrun with the dross of mankind.

  • Glory for USSR, the main owner of WWII, that saved humankind from the evil and the nazis.

    URRA!

  • Jebać komunistów!!!

  • ... and which murder thousands of humans after war. Be cursed forever!!!

  • Oh, so USA didnt kill a lot of innocent humans in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, then in Middle East, Vietnam, Somalia, Checkslovakia, Servia, and keep seling weapons for poor countries proving that USA is a lie when promoving peace in the world.

    Remembering that USA got their asses kicked in Vietnam, Korea, Somalia and now are getting it in Afghanistain and Iraq ^^

    Death to the American invader! GLory for the Socialism!

  • Fuck USA and fuck Socialism! Why do you thinking I like USA?

  • ussr was as evil man. They even fucking killed a lot more people than nazis.

  • Oh, so how many did USA killed in Korea, Vietnam, Somalia, Servia, Iraq, Afghanistain, etc...?

  • I'm not talking about damn usa u overexcitable kid. And I know about that.

  • @WedgeAntillesBR they saved human kind from the evil of Nazism but also doomed half of Europe with the evil of Communism.

  • @WedgeAntillesBR actually, the russians only won the battle of Kursk because Hitler ordered the withdrawl of Panzer Units to Italy because of the invasion of Sicily. So, in effect, the russians won because the Allies had good timing.

  • @WedgeAntillesBR And Poland?

  • Of course the Soviets were superior soldiers. They had a whole country to fight for where as the other major combatents only had their snivelling capitalist class to fight for.... And why the f##k would any sane person fight for them???

  • Comment removed

  • you are suppose to make the other guy die for his country,dying for your motherland is not victory!!

  • @moviemakerrules thrue, soviets have destroyed sommenthing about 2/3 of nazist army, thats 640 divisions........but not clasic divisions, the best division nazist was having......

  • @moviemakerrules I piss on all commie rat bastards.

  • @moviemakerrules you forgot to add "..and expand Communism."

  • It was a major strategic defeat for the Germans. They would never launch an effective offensive on the Eastern Front after the losses at Kursk, and effectively handed strategic initiative to the Soviets on a silver platter.

    War, ultimately, is more than just a game of attrition. That the Soviets lost 2-3x more men and materiel is irrelevant.

  • победить чтоб остатся не с чем .

    За фрицев пол европы воевало потери могли быть и больше если бы воевали хуже .

    А ведь советская армия была сбор колхозников и неумелых Офицеров после того как всех нормальных солдат к стене поставили . Это потом уже в боях научились воевать.

  • russia won this battle in a time when the qualitative superiority of the germans was at the nadir, so it was a great victory for the allies thank you russia

  • gilbirion.....

    Ага...а еще Сталин ел младенцев запивая кровью девственниц....

  • а в чём я не прав ?

    Я не про сталина а про то что регулярная армия не умела воевать офицэры были ужасные а те ктоо знал толк в стратегии сидел в лагерях ...

    а те кто не сидел сидели тихо так как умные колхозники сами знали что делать ..

  • Ну да, умеющие воевать поляки, французы и англичане - за пару недель развалились, а тупые колхозники удержались, и не только удержались, но и разгромили лучшую в мире военную машину. Несмотря на ее тотальное преимущество в 41-42 годах.

    Очень странная логика. Очень.

  • Франция удрала , поляки не умели воевать ...

    СССР был не клоп какойто а Огромная страна с вооружением на треть больше чем у Германии. СССР готовил армию к войне но руководство не думало что Германия начнёт войну . Вот тебе и на что в первый день войны полегла огромная армия.

  • Нет. По всем пунктам. Учите матчасть самостоятельно, мне, признаться, лень в очередной раз набивать несколько мегабайт которые показывают полную несостоятельность вашей версии..

    И не по Вове Резуну, желательно учите, он тот еще свистун...

  • Какой вова ? Ты про ВВП ?)

    Я не его пересказ тебе выклал )

    СССР имел на тот момент около 24 тысяч Т-34.

    около одного милиона десанта ... Это огромная армия была разгромлена .

    Вторую мировую взяли мужеством упорством и силой.

  • Скока Т-34??? 24 ТЫСЯЧИ??? Откуда?! 1500 - и все. А остальное это все танки хором, да и то, Вова Резун наврал. Полностью.

    И про миллион десантников - ложь.

  • Ой прогнал не Т-34 а вообще всей техники которая называется Танк )

    Я протанки както должен был по английскому написать вот и инфу накопал про танки ..

    Не то что мы победили войну и мы крутые это да .. Но какой ценой платили за ошибки это плохо . + За немцев воевало много народу.

  • Всего в 4 западных округах было около 6500 исправных танков, считая такие уёжища, как Т-27 и Т-38, рядом с которыми "единичка" - вундерваффе. Без обеспечения, фактически.

    Против примерно такого же количества немецких, несопоставимо более мощных и обеспеченных всем под завязку.

  • А вот про десант я во многих источниках видел..

    Мб это не тот вдв как у нас сейчас .. Но это войска . + Какова фига на границе стояло такая армия ? Причем не в оборонительной позиции ..

  • Неверно. Приходите во флейм на forum.радеон.ру - там есть ветка про "ледокол", - все по полочкам разложено.

    Ник мой не перепутаете.

  • Ну ладно )

  • А то тут ссылки режет - и не дает копипастить большие куски фактографии.

    Трудно спорить, не имея возможности приводить аргументы.

  • Всего в Советской Армии насчитывалось 3млн военнослужащих на начало 1941 г. Это данные МО. И это по всей огромной стране, включая погранвойска. Да танков было до хрена, но это была техника актуальная только до 35 г. Тонюсенькая броня и бензиновый движок.

  • Только мужеством такую армаду (как на этом видео) нельзя, должно быть умение и знание, а также вооружение не хуже.

  • thats right,the southern pincer made good progress but the northern one struggled a bit!! hitler delayed von manstiens attack by a couple of months which didnt help him!!

  • At 7.36.

    Stalingrad?

  • At 0:12 a women's soviet batallion !

  • WHO WON AND WHO RETREATED,,,NUFF SAID

  • It was the greatest battle in WW2. More 6000 tanks, 20000 guns and mortar, more 4000 planes, more 2 millions soldiers were used. Fascists were kick backed at 200-300 km. It was the turning point in the WW2 history. German global departure was begun since the Kursk Battle.

    Some western people don't know it or don't want to know it..

  • von manstiens losses of troops was 50,000 and zhukovs was 185,000!!! zhukov wasnt in von manstiens class as a general!!!

  • Comment removed

  • @goldyn12345 Sjukov never lost a battle in ww2....so he must be one of the best generals ever..Manstein lost..so he cant be so good...

  • @nurmiar zhukov outnumbered manstien in troops, manpower,supplies ,tanks etc!! at kursk manstien lost 50,000 men while zhukov lost 185,000 yet the russians won the battle??!! strange!!!

  • @goldyn12345 Yes, they won.

  • @archanticipator who won the russians? even though they lost 185,000 troops and the germans 50,000? who was the better commander zhukov or manstien? manstien everrytime for me!!

  • This battle was not a clear victory for the Soviets. The Germans were actually doing very well until Hitler cancelled the mission.

  • Yeah, the battle at Prochorovka has after all these years turned out to be a soviet propaganda number. They knew very well where the german panzerkorps was and sent in the reserve armored corps to counter, the ensuing battle was chaotic and raged for days. However it was not a decisive blow to the german panzer arm, it was the months of heavy attrition that defeated the german panzers not one single battle.

  • @cbiwv If its not Hitler, then its the weather...at Moscow the germans blames the winter..at Stalingrad it was the winter again..but, at Kursk it was summer, so then they blame Hitler..in 1941 the germans did not defeat the russians , altough it was summer and Russia did not get any help from USA..so, who to blame then? Hitler or the weather...1944 in the summer, they could not win, why? What kind of weather do the germans need to win a battle or a war?

  • excellent footage

  • misery fully realised

  • 0:24 Yankees tanks

  • This battle was lost before it started. Hitler wanted his newest tanks involved in the battle, the Tiger and the Panther, so he waited for these tanks to come online for the battle. Interesting that in April 1943 there were only 50 Panthers and 25 Tiger tanks coming off the assembly line each month. Compared to approximately 1000 T34's produced each month for the Soviets. Hitler stopped "operation citadel" and sent divisions to Sicily to challenge the Allied landings at that location.

  • dont forget the elaphant too

  • And Yes, I believe that sent 90 in the battle and lost all of them.

  • Not 1000 T-34, but 1300

  • Not to mention the divisions that Von Manstein lost when Hitler sent forces to invade Italy.

  • Hitler really screwed up.

  • @BUNDESWHERGENERAL What kind of weather does the germans need to win a battle or a war..and have many divisions do they need?

  • The Soviets also received 120,000 trucks and 24,000 scout cars and jeeps in 1943 and another 122,000 trucks in 1944 from the US.  This gave the Soviet Army the much needed mobility they did not have previously.

  • Russian paid in gold, they did it for the sake of a victory. And Americans were not at war, and earned money in the war as always

  • very well put, some people think that without this help from the usa then the russians would have lost this battle!!!

  • oh what... the spam?

  • @goldyn12345 Everyone is free to speculate...would the USA win over Germany without Russia? 80% of Germanys army was in Russia...if these 80% was against USA in France ...would the americans even manage to get over the channel?

  • @nurmiar you make a very good point, the amercicans would have had it so much harder!!!

  • Kursk the true biggest Battle in the ww2!

  • awsome it must have been an unbelievable spectacle when they met head on on the soutern flank

  • Hitler was farting around in N Africa in 1941-42. Plus the 1943-44 bombing took a lot of resources away from the OstFront, and having to fight in France and Italy didn't help.

    If the US & UK let Germany go against Russia without any aid, it would have been one helluva fight and I don't know who would have won. It might have come down to a draw, both sides trading the same 200km strip of Russia over & over.

  • 87% of Germans were destroyed by USSR, another 13% believe me would not matter for USSR. But that 13% was a big deal for US and British!plus ther were not only germans, there were also spanish divisions, rumanian,fins

  • That's typical soviet propaganda but the USSR did do the most damage but the U.S. had some tough battles like Anzio.

  • The USSR did do the most damage. The war was won, and lost, on the eastern front. The truth is that neither side could have won without the other. The western allies could not win without soviet manpower, and the soviet union could not put their manpower to good use without the help of western industrial production. Anything from canned foods to railroad carts and rare compounds for explosives came from the west. 50% of all aircraft aluminum came from west. Both sides conveniently forget.

  • mmmmmm ...T-34.

  • I have to thank Germans to their effort to destroy communism and their help to us - by the way Germans won the battle of Kursk (when the Allies started invasion of Italy, they had to retreat), but lost the war... What a painter missed - a film star succeeced.

  • Nonsense: the Germans lost at Kursk because OKH had been thoroughly penetrated by Soviet Intelligence. The Russian front commanders knew of the Kursk Offensive before the German commanders ! That's the absolute truth. The Soviet Air Force swept down on German forward airfields as the Germans were preparing to take off, destroying much of the attacking Luftwaffe on the ground. The Sovs knew exactly when and where the German units were attacking.

  • The Soviet Air Force tried to swept down German airfields, but missed the targets and German fighters shot down most of the attackers... For excample - think about battle of Prokhorovka: Soviets lost over 21000 men and 334 tanks, but Germans only almost 5500 men and 25 tanks!!

    Battle of Kursk is mainly a myth or a lie (propaganda)...

  • So is the battle of Kursk a myth OR a lie? Are you one of those that think the Holocaust was made up too?

    You hate the Soviets for other reasons and wish to spread lies, bullshit and intolerance.

    Pointing out Soviet military blunders is pretty easy. Yet they overwhelmed and won. They could have sunk all their resources making 1000 semi-invincible tanks like Germans did. They chose 80000 t-34s, plus others, and won. And soon after Kursk, their airforce actually started to look like one as well.

  • Over 6 decades we belivied in magic number 2700 german tanks you probably know what Im thinking about 6 million ... (perhaps its a crime of being dissident?).
