Wehrmacht - Puma [Sampolit Film]

[Silahtar357]

Can deal with Medium Tanks...

[schootingstarr]

I like the tradition of german armored vehicles being named after animals

I wonder if there's ever gonna be a new tiger ^^

[Plattfischth]

My grandfather was commander of a Puma . Skfz 234/2. The vehicle has been distroyed by an allied P-38 Lightning. Maybe by a soviet one. But this is not sure. The crew survived!

[Schoenman45k]

the name of the German song at the beginning is "Vom Barette schwankt die Feder"

[ww2footage]

that is not a wise idea to fight with tanks in poorly armored vehicle

[ElvisCamillo]

What's the name of the song in the begining? Can any german guy get at least the lyrics?

[JSLegoMaster]

Nice vid, and its one of my favourite ww2 wheicles, i like the sploed armour.

However what is the title of the music?

[mrceebees14]

The German song at the beginning is sweet! Where can I get that version of it??

[dfg1989]

че за музыка в начале 

[alegiunti80]

the father of all modern armoured car!!!!!

[GfCommando]

Sexy design, i'd like to fuck it in the turret.

[Rico8458]

pure genius! germans are the best at what they do best.

[tanello2]

deutschland had top class war machines!sad that production was slow!

[Wieland1985]

3556df44 the march is called Vom Barette schwankt die Feder

[ElvisCamillo]

What's the name of that anthem in the begining?

[mrceebees14]

@ElvisCamillo Were you able to find that version of the song? I have looked everywhere, I can't find it.

[ElvisCamillo]

@mrceebees14 No :/

[dhd555]

Good

[Ponghammer]

In der Tat -  hier schreibt die Generalität von morgen.

[RiDDick579]

Tjaha damals hame erstma alles platt gemacht hehe

[Wieland1985]

Du meinst wohl eher den Luchs! Nicht den Fuchs

[Batner112]

Der hatte halt für einen Leichten Panzer/Spähwagen eine sehr gute bewaffnung und Panzerung. Ich glaub aber nicht das dieser aktiv zur Panzerjagdt eingesetzt wurde. 90 Sachen sind halt top, aber auf Matsch wird der zu kämpfen gehabt haben. Die Amis haben den M8 danach entwickelt. Aber sehr wirkungvoll waren diese Wagen nicht, nur zur Aufklärung und Infanteriesupport. Heute ist das wieder in, sowas zu bauen, wir haben ja auch den Fuchs nach dem Prinzip :)

[BusterXXXL]

@Batner112 Panzerjagd ja, aber nicht gegen Hauptkampfpanzer. Die rote Amee hatten auch Massen von leichtgepanzerten Unterstützungsfahrueugen. SU 76 wäre da ein Beispiel für eine Fahrzeugsorte, die regelmäßig Wehrmachtsinfantrie und Aufklärung durch Masse überwältigen konnte. Ein anderes offensichtliches Hauptziel wären GAZ und LendLease-traktoren gewesen, die für Truppentransport und Versorgung sorgten, falls es noch einmal zu einem deutschen Durchbruch gekommen wäre.

[FutureOfThePast14]

Puma is the best armored car of the whole WW II.And especially I love the 234/4 Pakwagen.

[baldgit646]

I have a picture of one of these beauties fitted with a 75mm. The caption claimed that they could give T34's and Ronson's a rather nasty shock. Was this a one off, or did the 75 become a regular fitment.

[DerKast]

234/4 was a production model but in small numbers ( mainly "secondhand" pak 40's brought back for repairs were fitted as german industrys could cope with production due to bombing). a T34 would have been hell to hit with its limited traverse, but could be overcommed by its manouverbility in theory. In short it was quick, well armed But Germany could never make enough.

[DerKast]

*"Couldn't cope with allied boming" sorry opps....

[Rand0911]

Hea video!

[dkasi2]

Der war seiner Zeit weit voraus

[BigAndTall666]

Woot-woot...I´ve got the old Italeri kit....sweet! :-)

[digglyda]

Once again I find the comments pages covered in the same old rubbish from the pro-German enthusiasts. Yes, the Puma had a 50mm gun and was a great vehicle etc, etc...but: The German Recce units were organised fundamentally DIFFERENTLY from Allied counterparts. The Germans were equipped and organised to FIGHT for intelligence that the Allied units would obtain through more stealthy means. Also, the 8x8 vehicles still had poor X-country mobility compared to fully tracked vehicles.

[digglyda]

Well done...very balanced, intelligent argument. Your mother must be very proud?

[digglyda]

gloop si ko tursky kooratz

[snyp0r65]

some people maybe think it has only a weak gun and poor armor. But you have to notice, that most Allied tanks had also very thin armor. The Puma could even kill a Sherman from all sides at distance of 1,200 meters though it was only a armored reconnaissance vehicle. Also the Puma was very fast up to 85 km/h (!!!!) I reminds of a eight-wheeled amphibious armored personnel carrier (APC) used by the United States Army and the Puma was one of the first kind of these vehicles!

[ppsh43]

Very nice clips! Thanks for posting.

The puma was a very rare cat - only 250 or so were made.

[Wieland1985]

Obwohl ich glaube das der Luchs gegen den Puma keine Chance gehabt hätte @PzAufklaerer12Btl

[preservediversity3]

Vote NPD / DVU in June 2009 to save Germany.

[Silberfang]

retten? mit noch mehr dummheit als eh schon herrscht?

[Silberfang]

Mit noch mehr Dummheit und Inkompetenz als es die Regierung eh schon an den Tag legt? Neh, laß ma.

[Wieland1985]

Sampolit can you tell me what marchsong it is at the beginning ? Thanks

[waffenestland]

beautiful badass beast on 8 wheels,germans know how to build great machines,german ww2 armour looks so infernal,nice,like tiger,tiger B,sturm tiger and projects maus and on paper ratte

[PzAufklaerer12Btl]

the father of the german LUCHS

[bajorjor1]

wow, cool death machine

[willypete2171]

its incredible how much the Puma was ahead of its time. The US Marines' LAV 25 almost looks like the same vehicle...

[waffenss088]

Great video!

[hatemf23]

great vid m8, i have much more appreciation now for the puma :)

[Exterminator128]

awsome vehicle, what music is that? I love it

[PrinceVince25]

pumas are so cool

[jackzero99]

Awesome vehicle and it would have been more effective during the Battle of the Bulge than the slow heavy Tiger II tanks. The Germans needed speed and would have been better off with the Puma and Panther tanks leading the charge.

[willypete2171]

they did have the Panther available in numbers for "Watch am Rhein." The real issue more than anything else was the lack of fuel. Peiper had to ditch his vehicles because he ran out of gas...

[DivisionCharlemagne0]

Vraiment très intéressant ! 5*****

[Eviltronic]

Puma, achtung!! :D

[Rebecated]

Hello,

the song at the beginning of the video ( 0-15 seconds) is called "Vom Barette schwankt die Feder" and you can find it as well in you tube under this name....

[JSLegoMaster]

Great vid. That wheicle is superior to a tank, much faster and can outmanouver the enemey. But it got a big fire üpower still.

[papadopolus666]

Excelent

[wooodgie]

great video, thx men!!! and What is the name of the music? 0s. to 15s. ??????

[wooodgie]

[warmoviesboy]

i like how it looks :P

[MuzeecX]

The song is Chateau by Rob Dougan

Anyways it was built in 1944? Way too late.

[Leninthebest]

WHATS THE SONG?

[1418WP]

what is the name of the song in the beginning of the video ?

[32ndPanzerDiv]

great vid on the puma in a game known as company of heroes PUMAS RAPE!

[xeasternxz]

The crummy music to this vid is deadlier than the subject!

[paulabo123]

isn`t there a tank in german army that looks like that?

say it in a video here

[Magni56]

Yeah, that´d be the Luchs. Amphibious, very silent 390hp engine and armed with a 20mm autocannon. Was the main armored recon vehicle for the Bundeswehr since 1975 and is now getting partially replaced by the Fennek.

[paulabo123]

na ja der fennek sieht aus wie ein grün gespritzes pimp auto ala hollywood stars. wenn rapper den kaufen werden is alles klar;) ne ich mein kein spähpanzer meine so ein richtigen wie den puma. mit kanone

[M55ikael]

Originally designed for the Leopard tank?

The Leopard is from the 50's? Is there a Leopard I don't know about?

[Sampolit]

The "Leopard" project started in 1937 as the Henschel & Porsche was given the task of build the medium tank to replace the PzKpfw IV. Only few prototypes were but as it never entered the production as the project was canceled due the "Tiger" appearance in 1942. The Tiger in some light can be seen as the evolvement of the Leopard project. The Wehrmachts Leopard however is not same battle tank as the Bundeswehrs Leopard: they share only the common predator name.

Sf Kanal,

Admin.)

[M55ikael]

Thanks for clearing that up!

[Leninthebest]

Come on dude...say me the name of the song of the video

[3556df44]

@Sampolit please tell me what the very firsl song is on his video? or where you got it from? Id realy appreciate it. thanks

[ThePanzerkommandant]

@Sampolit i AGREE THE GUY WHO MAKES THIS VIDIO IS AN IDIOT!

[bexx76]

Since 1941, plans were made for the development of a new reconnaisance tank based on PzKpfw II Ausf J (VK 1601). In March of 1942, MIAG and Daimler-Benz received orders to build a fast (medium/heavy) reconnaisance tank, designed to operate under heavy combat conditions - Gefechtsaufklarung. MIAG was to construct the chassis, while Daimler-Benz was construct the turret.

[bexx76]

Both were to be designed and ready for production by October of 1942.The main purpose of this vehicle was to be at HQ tank platoons in Panzer units.Two versions were proposed, "Leopard (leicht)" lightly armored fast version (18ton) and "Leopard (schwer)" heavily armored one (26ton). The light version was quickly dropped in the Summer of 1942, in favour of the heavier one

[NewDudeInHere]

Well, I can say that Germany did have a very good and tactical army.

[rebelstang]

Germany had the best tanks in WWII.

We got Lucky & had more equipement.

Y'LL had Gen.Rommel.Damm good General! Luckily we had Churchill & FDR.

Try & have a good day!

[gibsonsignature]

is the model shown in this great video the italeri version of the puma ?

[aribenzane]

I always loved the style of this vehicle. You would think that in numbers it would make a cheap, easy-to-maintain tank. But why 8 wheels in rigid body? Was there some advantage to this?

[EvilFingers]

I use to have a model of the SdKfz 232, in which the wheel base is basically the same as the Puma, the decals I used are those of the 21st Pz Div in the Afrika Korp.

[petrwarry]

puma's tatra engine was diesel?

i thought germans used mainly gasoline.even that tatra is czech carmaker.

cheers

[Ragnar1001]

Antrieb: luftgekühlter 12-Zylinder-V Tatra Dieselmotor mit 14,825 l Hubraum und 220 PS im Heck

greetings from Munich

[jadger1871]

a lot of the German tanks used gasoline engines, the idea being for blitzkrieg they could literally pull up to a captured civilian gas station and fill up beside your vehicle. I saw pictures of this from the Anschluss in 1938

[Magni56]

Rommel´s 10th armor used to do that in France. :)

[modelsdkfz184]

great model !!! i need to get a puma ;)

[JUANDIEGOJIMENEZ]

Well, PUMA for me is one of the most beautiful vehicles ever built during WWII, a real mix of high technology and art design. I think it could be useful today in may armies for street fighting. I have one PUMA scale model 1/35 Dragon and when ones built a precision model can understand de complexity and engineering involved in developing a vehicle like that

[jjhays36]

The LAV, Stryker, BTR, etc.... have a common heritage

[doubelb23]

Den Krieg haben wir vielleicht verloren,

der RUHM bleibt unser, die beste ARMEE der Welt!!!!

[XraYSoLo]

wir haben nur männer verloren, der lrieg geht heute immernoch weiter.

[easystreets70]

@double23 - "beste Armee der Welt" ist zu undifferenziert. Die sog. beste Armee der Welt hatte f. ein paar Jahre techn. Fortschritt u. auf Geschwindigkeit gesetzt. Ab 1943 aber brachen die Fronten zusammen u. aufgrund einer massiven Fehlplanung u. Selbstüberschätzung ihrer Möglichkeiten, auch der des Landes als Mittel- und nicht! Großmacht. Die Soviets wie auch d. Amerikaner waren stärker u. vor allem langatmiger. Wie will man so unterschiedl. Voraussetzungen vergleichen?

[doubelb23]

VORSICHT: einige Denkanstöße

- Haunebu ( I, II, III )

- Infrarot Zielsucher

- Luftkanone

- 1. tragbare Atombombe .... alles unsere Wehrmacht!!!!

Wobei die Haunebu Technologie bis heute vorherscht!

Hinterfrage mal warum die Amerikaner mehrere Atombomben auf das NEU SCHWABENLAND (Südpol) geworfen haben, eine Invasion voantrieben, um dann Zähneknischend sich in der gewaltigen Kampfstärke der Deutschen zurückzogen??? das wa nach 45´

[doubelb23]

es wird gesagt 80% der DEUTSCHEN TECHNOLOGIEN wurden "übernommen" (geklaut, gestolen, usw.)

in Wirklichkeit, was aus nicht verifizierten Unterlagen des Amerikanischen, Britischen, und Sowjetischen Geheimdienstes hervorgeht, waren es nicht einmal ganze 20% die von unseren Invasoren übernommen wurden......jeder normal-denkende-Mensch fragt jetzt.....wo ist der Rest????

DENKED SELBER NACH, GLAUBT NICHT WAS GESAGT WIRD!!!!

[easystreets70]

Vorsicht zurück:

1. Es war nicht die Wehrmacht, die Technologien hervorgebracht hatte, sondern die Forschung u. die Industrie.

2. Krieg im allgemeinen, u. der 2. WK im besonderen, hatten die Technikentwicklung enorm gefördert wie nie zuvor in der Geschichte.

[easystreets70]

3. Dass die Deutschen erfindungsfreundlich, wenn nicht sogar -progressiv, sind, ist doch unbestritten; was geht nicht alles auf deutsches Konto, was heute die Welt bestimmt: Motoren (Otto, Diesel); Computer (Zuse); Fax; Raketen - die Liste ist ja nahezu unendlich.

4. Haunebau war mir neu bis vor kurzem. Aus der Gravitation ist aber keine Energie zu ziehen so ohne weiteres - da unterliegt Haunebu auch den Energiegesetzen.

[easystreets70]

5. Von SS u. Atombomben am Südpol habe ich noch nie etwas gehört - vielleicht kannst Du mir ja Hinweise schicken dazu.

6. Dass die Wehrmacht als mystisch schlagkräftig gilt, ist auch unbestritten - man kann die Mystik dahinter aber auch entmystifizieren, d. h. erklären.

[easystreets70]

7. Hitler u. die seine Deutschen hatten doch bis auf Germania, arische Rasse u. maximale Expansion gar keinen Plan gehabt. Wie die Amerikaner und ihr Irak. Neben aller wunderbaren Wehrtechnik, die zudem oft noch toll aussah, darf man die Naivität des Krieges ebenso sehr, sehr betonen.

[togergerhh]

RICHTIG !

Man muss nur die Eile verfolgen,

die, die Allierten hatten.

Als sie ins Deutsche Reich kammen,

oder warum war das erste Ziel

Wissenschafler ?

Alles was die Amis haben ist so gut wie DR

Technologie

[HugoHorsti]

stimmt wir hatten die ersten nur flügler nun haben die amis die B-2

wir hatten das StG 44 nun haben die Russen die AK-74

wir hatten die ersten raketen und die Me 262 (erstes Strahlflugzeug) und unseren panzern konnte keiner das wasser reichen (denkt nur an den tiger und auch so waren wir eig auf vielen anderen eben weitaus überlegen

[BlackBenzino]

Das läßt sich unendlich lang fortführen :

Fakt ist , dass wir zur damaligen Zeit ,

auf dem Technologie-Sektor mit großen Abstand

führend waren

und , dass das Wissen ,Technologie und PATENTRECHTE von den Siegermächten eingeheimst wurden ( ... )

[TimboobmiT]

nice video dude))tx 4 postin'

[SilkstoneProductions]

your not the 1 power in europe, britain is.. and luxembourg is the richest. stop talking a bunch of crap.

[Wafuura]

Stop being arrogant SilkstoneProductions! German have gone through a lot to reach this level. Besides, other countries like China, French, Italy, Swedish and many other countries continue to explore this fields even as we speak. Britain is not the only country in world man. So, please respect other country as we the world community will respect your country as well. By the way, Sampolit, does PUMA used in Blitkeirg tactics? If it does, how?

[XraYSoLo]

yes, mister bombing-holocaust ^^

[TAIWANNINJA]

BACKMUSIC OF "Sdkfz PUMA"

[Sampolit]

We have used the Matrix Reloaded - The Album Disc 2 soundtrack "Chateau".

[milikoss]

0s to 15s music man...

[TAIWANNINJA]

Mr.Sampolit...

I LIKE THE BACKSOUND!

WOULD YOU PLEASE TELL ME THE NAME OF THE BACKMUSIC?

[Sampolit]

Comments, ratings or/and criticism are welcomed! The Information You will provide us will be used only to create better and more interesting digital-films!

Thank you for your attention!

[borncoza]

Is that overseer, the second music?

[DinceManijak]

Sounds good mate, ill add you on subscription if thats okej. Keep up the good work..

[DinceManijak]

When will we see a vid about Bosnians in the SS divisons, and Bosnians defending from serbian agression 1992-1995? Cool videos, keep on going. Greetings to Estonia!

[Sampolit]

The Bosnian Legion project has been planned but not organized due to the busy schedule. Very likely the Bosnian Legion will make the entrance on Youtube in August along Croatian, Finnish and Danish Legion videos.

[pawnp4]

why des it have wheels instead of tracks?

[Sampolit]

Because Puma was-is armored vehicle

[ppatrikfromEST]

coool machine germans weopons were the best in ww2
