WW2 German Sturmtiger firing it's big gun

[Brutality110]

whoever had that rocket heading at them R.I.P.

[eddydamaskus]

the fuckin 380mm mörser makes a reallie badaboom!

[MultiAREE]

@wwwtotalitaerde Mkay, how does that work?

[wwwtotalitaerde]

@MultiAREE You mean the directed energy weapons used to brainwash and torture? Basically there are two ways to induce low frequency currents in the body which have an effect on the nerve cells.

One way is mixing two electromagnetic signals with a slightly different frequency which produces low frequency beats. Thats also called heterodyning the signals.

Another way is to use an asymmetric signal, having different frequencies in the positive and in the negative halfwave, causing ions to move.

[darkawakening01]

@wwwtotalitaerde You sir, are a demagogic madman who utters lies all the time, over and over again and i'm tired to see your comments under dozens of vids. Get a life!

[IWANAROCKYEEEAAAA]

@wwwtotalitaerde 49% of germans want the German Democratic Republic back so ...

[Retchmack]

@wwwtotalitaerde I cannot tell if you are trolling or just a massive, paranoid fool.....

[Retchmack]

@wwwtotalitaerde Oh and you do know that germany chooses to not have nukes? It is the 5th most powerful country in the world and it has CHOSEN not to have nuclear arms, yet it could easily arm itself

[wwwtotalitaerde]

@Retchmack Do you believe in the official lie that Germany has no nukes?

The German army is being trained on pershing rockets to shoot nukes, to drop nukes from jets and to place them as ADM or nuclear mines. US publications state that Germany is able to have nukes ready within a few days if not hours.

[Retchmack]

@wwwtotalitaerde Yeah....and. Whats wrong with germany being able to arm itself? Its one of the most influentail countries in the world. I would much rather them have nuclear arms than China, India or any of the Middle east.

[ZenonPL]

@Retchmack

Yes. Germans have always been efficient at killing. For example, killing children in Warsaw in 1944.

[Retchmack]

@ZenonPL Massacres occur all the time through out histroy... and the jews often are the victims. The Russians have massacred people. The Japanese have. The Chinese have. The English have. The French have. Pretty much every country in Europe has massacred people.

[wwwtotalitaerde]

@ZenonPL Germany still is very efficient at killing and blaming others for their crimes. There is a large number of snitchers,all connected to Germany,running around blaming Russia for the crash of president Kaczinsky.Only, he was Germanys public enemy no.2

And then we have this crash on YT:

Helicrash_Belarus.wmv

This pilot had established all contacts between German and East European pilots.Look at 1:05 till the crash. He was hindered twice to pull up, just like Kaczinskys pilot.See my channel.

[wwwtotalitaerde]

@Retchmack Germans are moving around freely in many countries, bringing their radar technology to spy and their directed energy weapons to brainwash, torture and murder. Ive been tortured in several countries by officials of the German BND, the renamed GESTAPO. I know of others having been tortured by the German BND abroad. Some cases Ive witnessed myself.

Germany on the other hand does not even allow any foreigner only to move around freely in Germany. Ive seen foreigners being tortured away.

[YambidiBlamBlam]

@wwwtotalitaerde I'm thinking that this time around, Germany and Russia will team up and stay a team, and split Europe. Already I think Germany pretty much controls Europe economically. And Russia is still the powerhouse over there in the rocks and snow.

[xSuperiorManx]

@Retchmack Please ignore this hate-preaching idiot. See my other comment towards him here for details about him. I apologize on his behalf.

[xSuperiorManx]

@wwwtotalitaerde Please ignore this buffoon. Martin Bott is suffering from a psychosis that makes him believe the government is after him, controlling minds everywhere etc. >_> His allegedly murdered brother even went to court against him because he didn’t want him to use his name for that nonsense. Now he sticks to defaming my country in Youtube videos. He’s a madman, nothing else.

[tumbipanther]

TAKE THAT WARSAW.... nah im just kidding, the missus would kick my arse, lol

[aracaen]

fun fact, that 'big gun' isn't even a gun, it's a rocket launcher

[rdj90]

geez imagine getting hit with that. if germany would have had the production rate we would have had i say they would have won anyone else?

[JohQx3]

@rdj90 Its pretty clear Germany wouldve won if theyd had same production rate. Germany wasnt too far winning the war as it was, imagine them having 5 times more weaponry.

[another505]

i wonder how you reload it

[Toddinfantry]

@another505 It is a breech loaded weapon with seven rounds carried internally. The barrel was so short that the round almost stuck out of the end.

[BigAndTall666]

@another505 By a small crane!

[another505]

@BigAndTall666 but is the rocket inserted from the mouth of the gun, or loaded from the back?

[BigAndTall666]

@another505 By using a small crane!

[leecooper9911]

PWPW building. warsaw uprising 1944.

[justincredible9446]

huge blast made it a big target there was a report in the ardennes that a sturmtiger knocked out three shermans with one shell

[ThatsMrMoronToYou]

"Its" is a singular possessive pronoun. An example of its use would be: " WW2 German Sturmtiger firing its big gun". "It's" is a contraction of "it is" or "it has". An example of that would be: "It's(it is)raining." Alles klar?

[jerrymail]

It's not really a gun, it's a Racketenwerfer RW61 L/5.4, a rocket launcher.

[blablafusseldussel]

german power ftw ftw ftw!!! rofl x'D

[TheBikefighter]

Yes, this is the Raketenwerfer 61......380 mm caliber......It was quite powerful!!

[Robert111]

@TheBikefighter That 380mm shell would provide quite a wallup to whatever was underneith it, good and hard.

[xyzwl000]

meh, i think that germany over-engineered some of their tanks... i dunno, my opinion is that they should not have kept coming up with bigger tanks after the panther, cuz it did its job

[Fallenglory13]

@xyzwl000 you're quite right man. Tanks like the tiger and king tiger were slow, costly, and hard to fix. If say, the king tiger broke down, the crew might have to dig through tons of stuff just to fix the problem. The germans abandoned many tanks like these because repairs would take (i think) days to fix; and in a warzone, you don't usually have days

[Hemzt34z]

German tanks of WW2 = Win

[Echeque5]

@Hemzt34z - No, = LOSE. You can look it up in any history book or online video. The evil Nazi Germany LOST. Sorry. :)

[Hemzt34z]

And if you looked in a history book you'd learn that the Panzer 5,6,7(Panther,Tiger,Tiger II) were all extremly effective in demolishing allied armor. And just because they were German deosnt make them evil asshole.

[Echeque5]

@Hemzt34z - In every history book I own in my library about these tanks, they all mention how unreliable the Tiger and especially King Tiger was. The King Tiger was so mechanically unreliable that most of them never even saw combat. Read, "Tigers in Combat", by Wolfgang Schneider. Can't be too, "extremely effective", when they can't even make it to the battlefield because they are broken down. Evil Nazi Germany most certainly was evil. As to your childish, vulgar comment, grow up.

[Hemzt34z]

IF you researched the Heer and the Whermacht as well as the panzer divisions you'll see that the Tiger I and Tiger II always knocked out more shermans,t-34s,and cromwells than thier own loses. I never said the tanks were without problems,but most historians agree that the tanks/tank commanders made/trained by the Nazis were the best co-ordinated,trained, and experienced on the battlefield.

[MadMilitiaMen]

@Hemzt34z

Dont waste your time debating with Echeque5 mate. He lets his own personal feelings cloud actual fact. Sure German tanks had mechanical problems, thats not design fault, thats being rushed trough testing. The panther was a first accident prone and unreliable, but once the bugs were sorted through it became the most outstanding Tank of the second World war. Ask a Veteran if they would rather have fought in a Sherman or a Tiger and most would honestly answer Tiger

[Hemzt34z]

Thank You, its a unfortunate the German Army of WW2 will always be looked at as Nazis. Some people(echeque5) just cnt admit that not ll german soldiers were evil.

[MadMilitiaMen]

@Hemzt34z

Very true, they were only doing thier duty as soldiers, same as thier allied counter-parts (except for the russians). The Nazi leaders that controlled them were the only monsters.

[Hemzt34z]

Amen, dam russians lol

[Firesprayer]

@Hemzt34z

Late war, the training given to tank crewman were actually quite poor as they really needed troops on the field faster which led to more casualties. During the early years of 1942 when there were Tigers and they actually had good commanders, then it was actually effective.

[Retchmack]

@Firesprayer True but the crews were still on average a lot better than the new allied tank crews coming in. Throughout the war germany had on average better crews for their tanks.

[YambidiBlamBlam]

@Hemzt34z And the Italians?

[Poerisija]

@Echeque5

And allied bombings of german cities and Stalin's purges and japanese warcrimes in the pacific weren't evil?

Sure, holocaust was bad but why no-one ever mentions all the people killed by Stalin and Mao? They both killed more people than Hitler did and today they're glorified heroes. I have great respect for the Wehrmacht for the sacrifices they did. My country fought in the axis in WW2 and we aren't ashamed of it.

[audimetallica]

@Poerisija your soooo right. same thing I allways say. but yeah hitler was a baad man,and stalin well hes was victories.. a chame how people forget that both sides where evil. believe the british empire started the slave camp with "the black " people back in ost india,, you know-all those colonies.. but nono that we dont remember... :) I share your view.. from denmark..

[Poerisija]

@audimetallica

WW2 wasn't a fight of good or evil. It was fight between ideologies and different creeds. So are all wars.

People forget this way too often.

[audimetallica]

@Poerisija yes i know that. but then you also know that we only judge hitlers germany, like they invented the con camp,tortour ect ect.. everyone knowes he didnt started it.

[Poerisija]

@audimetallica

Indeed.

[volound]

@Poerisija no, it was a fight between good and evil.

killing jews just for being jews is not just a neutral ideology.

are you jewish? didnt think so.

dont ever say anything as stupid as that again.

[Poerisija]

@volound

Haha, then who were the good guys?

Russians? No, I don't think so.

Allies? Better, but still a definite NO.

There aren't any winners in a war, and no war is between good and evil.

[volound]

@Poerisija the good guys were the allies. we tried appeasement and it didnt work. we didnt want a war. germanys EVIL actions forced a war on europe.

[Poerisija]

@volound

UK and France declared war on Germany. Allies started the war. Germany would have fought a limited war against Poland otherwise. Yes, they might have declared war on allies later, but still.

Allies also killed civilians, bombed cities and used nuclear bombs. I wouldn't call them good guys either. Besides, if there wasn't appeasement, WW2 might not have even started.

[volound]

@Poerisija germany transgressed severely. they started the war.

allies killed civillians of a country that builds and feeds the nazi war machine. its called total war.

[Poerisija]

@volound

Germany did provoke them, yes. They still bombed tens of thousands of innocent civilians and killed hundreds of thousands with nuclear bombs without any other reason than "to end the war quickly". They just wanted to show the soviets their new toy.

[volound]

@Poerisija yes, total war. modern wars are not won by tactical victories with cavalry charges.

and coincidentally it prevented millions of deaths too.

[Poerisija]

@volound

So let me see if I got this straight.

In modern war you kill civilians to prevent death of even more civilians?

Modern wars are actually won by tactical victories, not by front-wide charges with infantry.

WW2 wasn't exactly a modern war, but there isn't any justification to kill hundreds of thousands of innocents, never. Even if the enemy does it, it doesn't mean you should.

[tcrlaf]

Strategy wins battles. LOGISTICS Wins Wars. Once the industrial might of the United States came on line, and began supplying the allies, ESPECIALLY the Russians, in huge amounts, it was over for the Axis. You won't see it in Soviet-Era Propaganda, but there were over 400 U.S.-Built tanks that fought at Kursk II. The Soviets completely deleted that from their history post-war. It didn't fit with the current truth.

[1ownjoo2]

@tcrlaf

Yea history also doesnt mention that it was the Americans who supplied the Russians with the abilitity to build there tanks and its armor

[BigAndTall666]

@1ownjoo2 BULLSHIT!

[1ownjoo2]

@BigAndTall666

The russians in the beggining of the war had nothing for tanks.. Antique at its best, the British supplies them with a bunch of there tanks during the war, and the americans supplied the russians with the ability to create stronger armor.. dont believe me look it up..

[darkawakening01]

@1ownjoo2 that is partially true but they came up with the concept of the T-34 before the war, which was one of the most progressive tanks of history. and they builded it in vast numbers on their own, using the production facilities which were relocated to remote areas in their hinterland. single german tank detachments had to fight whole companies of advancing T-34s (with great success), but were ultimately overwhelmed by sheer numbers.

[jackzero99]

@darkawakening01 T-34 wasn't that progressive. Many tanks had sloped armor. The T-34 didn't have a radio, no cupola for the commander, and a two man turret. The advantage was a bigger gun combined with thicker armor and that only lasted for two years until the Panthers and Tigers came out. The major advantage like the Sherman was mass production

[wwwtotalitaerde]

@tcrlaf Interestingly the Axis including Japan had approximately equal amounts of people under their control as the allies if you include the occupied territories and Latin America. It was the superior capitalistic Allied system which won the war over the totalitarian total command and control system of the axis. Germany squeezed out whatever they could get from the occupied countries while the US even payed fair wages to get the equipment produced for their and other allied armies

[tcrlaf]

Not really a fair comparison, despite the overwhelming Manufacturing base in North America. Among it's numerous other blunders, Germany. as late as March 1943, still had 50% of it's economy producing consumer goods, and didn't go to Total War production until June 43, on Speer's orders, while it's opponents, especially Russia, had long ago. Panther production is a great indicator of this, with just 138 a month built in 43, and 315/per in 44. But, by then, it was too late for Germany.

[tcrlaf]

Also, Germany faced a never-ending shortage of Strategic Metals, the most important being Nickel, used in armor of all kinds. Late war armor and metals became brittle, and easily pierced, because of using ever-lesser amounts of Nickel, after the loss of the Russian mines, and Petsamo in 44. And, the Germans were never able to totally capitalize on Occupied Nations manufacturing, due to the corruption in the NAZI system, and military manpower demands.

[roaklin]

@tcrlaf A fact commonly overlooked is that the Axis never had a source of material that wasn't being bombed on a daily basis unlike the Allies with America. How many resources had to be diverted to repair factories, move asembly lines etc that could not be turned toward the war effort? How many 1000s of tons of steel that could have been used in tanks and u-boats went to rebuild rail lines and bridges, how much material and food was lost in air raids. USA, 1 big, unaffected supply depot.

[IWANAROCKYEEEAAAA]

@tcrlaf the russian equipment that came from america was 4% (including the russian made equipment with western materials)

[tcrlaf]

It's Ironic, but dropping the Atomic Bombs on Japan SAVED 1 million U.S, lives, and like 5-7 million Japanese lives.

[MisterLEM0NS]

@tcrlaf Its like double irony right there. Never thought about it but your right!

[1337n1ck]

@Poerisija why you think american and british soldiers was bad guys?

PS: volound, i love your MW2 videos :D

[Poerisija]

@1337n1ck

Rarely the soldier was "a bad guy". It's the politicians and leaders. In every country. 

[Echeque5]

@Hemzt34z - Oh, also, if you look in any history book you will indeed discover that evil Nazi Germany did indeed LOSE WWII. So your comment, "German tanks of WWII = win", is indeed very mysterious. :)

[tresckow]

@Echeque5

so did the americans in vietnam, yet this has nothing to do with quality.

[MadMilitiaMen]

An unusual weapon, but effective.

[Ixtzalit]

This Moerser was developed to be used by the U Boots.

[drepown]

what was the range?

[kitsychan]

about 5.5km or 3 miles. But it wasn't acutally a gun, it was a 2 stage rocket morter. First stage would propel the rocket bomb out of the barrel, then 2nd stage would kick in. Strangly, this weapon was never really inteded to be used like this... Its actually a depth charge launcher, ment for firing charges forward and sideways off destoyers.

[Groundkisser]

Awesome weapon.

A few dozen of these could've made all the difference at Stalingrad.

[steamplayer716]

they lost most of those tanks for the fact that they ran out of ammo...

[juiceman927]

The sturmtiger was the BIG version of the sturmpanzer which carried an 155mm mortar.The Sturmtiger fired 800 pound 38cm rockets.Fireing a Smart car at the enemy:)

[GrrrIamMad]

it fired 380mm rockets. thats could destroy any tank or building one shot. although not used against tanks really.

[Ronis88]

What rockets?

[mdc2296]

@GrrrIamMad if they were used against tanks, then there would have been nothing left but a big hole in the ground.

[GrrrIamMad]

I know, I said it wasn't used against tanks. It was used more as a bombardment weapon. Although if it happened to hit a tank than that was good.

[mdc2296]

ok then.

[vagoperezoso]

THE 38 CM RAKETEN-WERFER RW61 L/5.4.!!!!!!!!!

IT WAS A MONSTER WHEN IT WAS USED IN THIS VEHICLE!!!

but the best tank-hunter was the Sturmgeschutz, tough

[Randum587]

That gun is a beast. Plus when u fire it u get a smoke screen.

[JBBlitz]

that could not flip over any tank, that is not ment for hitting tanks its ment for destroying fortresses.

[supercop999]

And a lot of "First of" Murdering of women and children.

[3439645]

Smith&Wesson handguns can also murder women and children. But it's not the weapon. It's the user and his ethics. Your comment is wrong here... and a little right.

[Guynumber7]

125kg of he could flip an IS-2 over.

[Wocfan]

I've read about its destroying power some kind of a naval gun is what it has its one shot could pass a building into the ground

[hatakashi1900]

It "fired" a rocket ... that's what I called ... POWER

[Ixtzalit]

The Tiger II could defeat IS-2 too.

[tron2102]

I read where a Sturmtiger fired at a Sherman, knocked out that one, and also 4 Shermans next to it.

[Rum048]

Holy ....

[VPf2]

Not a doubt that it really could happen.

[Dogmeat1950]

um...doubt it.

[chavkill1337]

say thay when you see the p1000 ratte

[t10bravo]

Ya das ist ser gutt!

[Lorric101]

'big gun'?

That's an understatement if ever there was one.

[picard36]

well its not a tank it si an artillery Piece.

[Jumintiger]

Actually the technical name for it is "Heavy Assault Tank". The name literally means 'Assault Tiger'.

[doofinovi]

Yeah, but Sturm can be also you used as Storm. Which in german is mostly the say, and used with the same meaning. U english guys have just a special word for it, and i think Jumintiger is def. right!

[dalekbitch]

youre right as i think STURMTRUPPEN is german for stormtrooper

[Direwolf13PS3]

yes but remember the Sturm gewehr (assault rifle)? Some german words mean more than one thing.

[hyuuganeji1010]

the first rocket tank ever

[Rum048]

Germany did a lot of "first of" tanks.

[azerotrlz]

and a lot of "first of" aircraft and u-boats

[gabricontractor]

man that is a 152mm cannon!!

[tonidmc]

In fact is not a cannon. is a rocket inside a a tube(cannon)

[gabricontractor]

You 're right! sorry ^__^

[tonidmc]

A Cannon fires a Projectile with an explosive charge. The Sturmtiger Tube fires a 152mmRocket. thats the difference IS NOT A PROJECTILE is a ROCKET

[gabricontractor]

and i guess it was more destructive than a projectile!!

[lafalot23]

its actually a projectile a missile is a projectile if you are going to put it in caps make sure its correct.

[SgtMaulwurf]

not 152mm -> 380mm rocket! is saw the stormtiger and one of its rockets. mail me for a photo

[carsten8850]

The sturmtiger was armed with a large naval mortar, the 38 cm SturmMörser RW61 L/5.4. Its primary task was to provide heavy fire support for infantry units fighting in urban areas.

[carsten8850]

The main armament was the 380 mm Raketenwerfer 61 L/5.4, a breech loading rocket launcher/mortar, which fired short range rocket propelled projectiles. These projectiles were roughly 1.5 metre in length and could either contain a high explosive charge of 125 kg or a shaped charge for use against fortifications, which could penetrate up to 2.5 metres of reinforced concrete. The stated range of the former was 5,650 metres.

[stege]

jajaja nice music from "Is Paris burning?"

[sergeu78]

Where did sturmtiger firing?

[Mcplkelly]

Think it was Warsaw Uprising in 1944.

[homek44]

Yes, it is Warsaw Uprising in august 1944.

[pizzaguy07]

wow is that the projectile flying through the air when it fires? Yeah I think you can actually see the round when it fires. Must be big and slow.

[Akula23]

38cm, but its actually rocket propelled , you can see the blast coming out of the projectile, its one of those wicked german inventions...

[Cromwellpanzer]

Yes it is a rocket-A normal gun that size would toss the vehicle over.

[spacewolf40K]

yeah lets slaughter some more innocent civilians. good idea dumb ass.

[germanyforever40]

Hey, If'n I wanted any lip off you I would just scrape it off my zipper you fuckhead.

[zannekin]

you are as even worse as "uncle adolphs" you should learn from the bomb drop's at japan that even people today are suffring of it even today even the guy who pulled the trigger killed himself after he heard what kind of "pandoras box" he opent

[Meminem]

Its big mouth scare, great weapon

[BundSama]

Well basically the Germans came up with super weapons to pull out of fire, and so this rocket tank was born. It shoots human-sized shells with rocket propulsion, the shell weighs about 350 kg and pretty much only Tiger (Tanks company name) could carry such a big artillery back then.

[kronoskalifa]

Mierda no he podido ver un video mas largo de como funcionaba el Sturmtiger. es muy limitado el material.

[Meminem]

En la Segunda Guerra Mundial no eran precisamente famosos por andar filmando de todo y bastante, por no mencionar que muchas cosas eran material clasificado y no se trataba tan a la ligera como ultimamente, eso no era como en Iraq

[MokomaSusi]

Thanks, never seen this footage before. Where did you get this?

[CaptainIntolerance]

The Captain approves-rare stuff, frightening actually.

[contactwaitout]

very good video

[indreis]

maldita cafetera... yo quiero una!!!!

[mrkzZz]

oha.. if i see what thinks the nazis got but couldn´t built much of them because they´ve got no time we all schould be happy that the war didn´t start 10 years later because than europe would be a german castle

[Ahippi]

just staying out of russia for 3 to 4 years would had made all the difrence. The Nazis are in the White House now.

[ElysiumNZ]

Holy crap! Fortage of those tanks is almost non existant!

[goetzvb]

geile aufnahme!

[quentinlau]

I never knew that very rare Sturmtiger ever has video footage

[affenkind]

thx 4 the footage
