Effect of Artillery Fire

[@_Matsimus_]

These old videos are amazing to watch. Love it

[@mkrump9403]

Do you have any links for these?

[@TheSelkan]

Artillery is still king on the battlefield, 80% casualties from indirect fire in Ukraine i read in a rapport

[@jangamaster8677]

Your video are pretty amazing too ;)

[@mkrump9403]

I would call it (artillery) the meat grinder. There are no real king in todays war. All pieces are dependants for further manoeuvres. Artillery can be spotted from air to ground. And there are radar against artillery operations to counter by other artillery barrages, plus aircraft watchers. I play Arma 2 - 3 at this level. haha no needs to go in war colleges to learn this.

[@xboxgorgo18]

I agree with you, but for me I think the world war 2 footages gives more impact (whether practice or field footages). I don't know why

[@martinfane284]

I remember watching this during basic training at Woolwich in 89....doing my best to keep my eyes open after along day running around. 101 Fld Reg 201 Bat.

[@Maverick-ds1vb]

I had two Argentinian artillery rounds land 5 to 10 meters away from me. We had the GPMG broken down for a good clean when the first round stuck ground. It buried itself into the soft peat ground and exploded resulting in a massive crater. Not wanting to hang around we grabbed what we could and started moving to other cover just as the 2nd round struck. This time it hit solid ground and we took a casualty, who was seriously injured but survived. That was the closest I ever wanted to get to enemy arty fire!!

[@malcolmlane-ley2044]

Thanks for what you boys did, it must have been bloody terrifying; even reading about it chilled me to the bones.

[@dirtydave2691]

In 1991 we had Iraqi 152mm's land so close to us I replied "I think one of my filings came loose". The loud crack and heat from an incoming round that lands close is incredible. Ironically I have scars on the right side of my neck from an IED blast in Feb 2006 that was made out of COMBLOCK 152mm round! As an American I'm no longer enthusiastic about fireworks on the 4th of July.

[@andrewwoodhead3141]

@David Pryor no. The casualty was seriously injured,..but survived.

[@andrewwoodhead3141]

I was in YPG from mid 2016 to late 2017. Was shelled by an ISIS T55 tank. Second time in my life, actually, was also in Croatia in ZNG in 1991. I remember this time the shell hit some trees about 100 meters in front of me. Quite close enough. Horrifying damage to the trees, thank god we had only just started moving forward. No warning , just this huge, flat Bang. It was indirect fire, of course, they use the tanks the same way as the kurds do, they just use them as guns and don't even stay inside when they fire.

these old training films are an absolute fucking MUST for those members of Forces '80, a re-enactment group who portray the armed forces between 1978 and 1989.

Division artillery firing some 150 rounds a minute? 72 guns firing about 6 rounds a minute comes up to 432. Yes I was in the artillery.

[@arkansaswookie]

therichardking, check out the battle of "Seelow Heights" from WW2, when Russia crossed into east Germany and the massive arty fight that occurred to try and stop the Red Army from reaching Berlin. Surviving German's from the Battle of the Bulge that fought at Seelow Heights said it was much more intense at Seelow than it was in the Ardenne in regards to artillery.

[@NIKOLASAV1]

***** No, the fact is Zhukov amassed artillery of 16,934 guns and mortars with some 7 000 000 shell's for the start of the operation not counting tank's and plane's.

[@decimated550]

haunting moment 6:05 when squad commander calls his men for verbal check in after an artillery bombardment. Yells the name, the men reply, except for silence after one man's name...

[@mkrump9403]

In life some of them will be duff. So it's a nice procedure in course/class but not in life battle. The check will be done at very last moment or just at the end. The haunting moment will start once the next squad would had taken the line ((if possible)).

[@eogg25]

I remember when our group commander, gave his going away speech, the last part of it was, The sound of the big guns is like music to an artillery mans ears. In those days we did not have ear protection, So a lot of us were all having hearing problems and when my MOS was changed and I became a CW Oper. it got worse and I know have a hearing aid, that works good enough but my tinnitus still interferes with my hearing. No more music. for me.

[@jonathancarshow9573]

eogg25 we still don't have hearing protection unless your talking about training then yea we get some ear plugs doesn't do shit though

[@harrykuheim6107]

What?

[@smp220700]

It's an British Army Training film from the 70's based on the then Cold War war scenario of how us gallant Brits would fend off Ivan. The SKC then SSVC made shed loads of films I have only uploaded a tiny fraction of the films they made, I sadly don't have any more. This one was one of those for information type films more than actually learning anything. Usually shown when you're chinstrapped during training as a test of not falling asleep.

The infantry sound like North Yorkshire/Middleborough accents. I think that the local infantry regiment for that part of England was the Green Howards (Queen Alexandra's?) But I think it is now amalgamated into the new Yorkshire Regiment which has 1st/2nd/3rd battalions and 4th (V) TA battalion.

[@NOF4C3]

Artillery is has terrifying physical effects but I'm more scared with it's psychological effects.

[@matthewwaddington2777]

12:25 Unless they use thermobaric's, or cluster munitions, or incendiaries.......

[@dpeasehead]

It's often forgotten that because the advance inland from the invasion beaches after D-day was bogged down within a few miles of the coast for weeks the Allies had the support of massive naval guns ranging all the way up to 14". I cannot imagine how far the effective range of modern artillery has been extended by GPS and drones. And when one adds in the fact that long range gunships will be able to add their firepower to counter battery fire, the kill zone created by the work of the opposing forces artillery and anti artillery units will be vast.

[@charleshall3744]

As of my enlistment in the early 2000's, FIST (fire support team) did not have access to naval gunfire anymore. It is probably more and more uncommon to have such large guns on naval ships these days. I know as of then artillery could go upwards of 30 miles (rocket assist round) and I believe non rocket assist rounds could go upward of 20-24 miles, my estimation (bad memory :D). I'd like to see vid's of those improved munitions with anti tank or anti personnel mines, which I have never seen anywhere except when I was selecting my 13F MOS.

[@jasonunwin5422]

The US Army back in the late 80s conducted a test at Fort Sill, OK on a simulated company team replicating Soviet artillery tactics. Actual M1 Abrams M2/3 M Bradleys,, plywood "soldiers", bunkers, trenches, fox holes etc were used in the test. Soviet artillery would absolutely TRASH a unit. The M1s and Bradleys probably wouldn't have had a chance to pull out and re position. It would have been a mess.

[@revsstuff1320]

Hey! I saw this 13F AIT back in 86!

[@Lord_Shadowz]

The UK now has 300 active tanks. That’s it. They will need a lot of artillery to take on Russia’s 9,000 to 12,000 tanks.

[@blingbling574]

The TOW missile and others ended massed mechanized warfare as well as MAD.

[@D3cyTH3r]

Incorrect. Active armor (combined with reactive armor) have swung the balance back in favor of tanks like the T-90, which "are largely invulnerable to anti-tank missiles” - retired General Wesley Clark, NATO commander, 1997 to 2000. www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/04/moscow-pentagon-us-secret-study-213811?o=0 Also MAD is still very much in effect. Its arguably the only reason why Putin hasn't tried annexing former Soviet states like Latvia who are now covered by NATO article 5. Your comment reveals a staggering level of naivety when it comes to modern anti-tank and nuclear capabilities (hypersonic missiles have been developed to counter traditional anti-missile technologies).

Anyone have a clue when this was made? They are using the DPM camo which was first generally used in 1968 as a full combat uniform. So it is probably at least that old.

[@jantjarks7946]

Many videos were first made in the 70s, when it became a hype. It was believed that such videos could prepare recruits better and closer to reality. In my own time (early 90s) we have been shown several videos, mainly regarding weapons effects and how to utilize, but command structure too. This is probably the reason why the shout out got so much emphasis in this video.

[@michaeldique]

It might very well have been made in the 70's. Considering the kit it was at least made after '68. Oh, yes. The shout out is important. Thanks Jan.

[@wessexheathen5708]

The camo changed in 85 to the 85 Pattern camo, so i reckon any time between 68-85. My guess would be late 70s.

To Liverpool Scottish Its my understanding that the German Wermacht invaded the Soviet Union on 22/06/1941 with over 3 million well equipped, Battle hardened troops in three army Groups. In encirclement battles at Bryansk and Kiev they took 750,000 prisoners each time. within three years they were crushed in smouldering Berlin by the combined weight of 4 Soviet Army Groups with over 200 divisions and 400 field guns per mile.
