For these 46 some odd minutes videos, they leave alot out and dramatize certain aspects for flair - but reading the comments, it should be made clear - the Iraqi tanks *did* fire and return fire and on a number of instances, land hit on the M1s but the rounds failed to penetrate. People underestimate just how much more advanced the M1 is to a tank like the T-72. The M1's armor is virtual immune to most type of fire they face during these engagements and the M1 could unload round after round while moving full throttle, while most of the time the T-72 had trouble tracking them (optically) much less landing hit and then what they landed had no effect. It was a real battle against well armed opponents - it just seemed to end up as a "turkey shoot" (as some have put it) because our forces are highly trained and their equipment was light years ahead of the enemy's. Even a good boxer can be made to look foolish and sloppy when stepping into a ring with a *great* boxer.

@@709mash yeah…Soviet (and Russian by extension) equipment is very “quantity over quality.” The idea being, the equipment sucks, but there’s so much of it that the enemy cant stop all of it. By comparison, NATO equipment in particular is the polar opposite, very “quality over quantity” - there isnt much equipment, but the equipment that’s there is very capable and effective. Basically…NATO equipment is designed with modern war and tactics in mind, while Soviet/Russian equipment is designed with WW1-esque mass assault wave tactics in mind.

No, I was here. I was Alpha 2nd ACR. The real game changer is TTS imaging. Stabilization is nice, but it isn't perfect. You can short halt and move with nearly the same effect. On the other hand, when you can see and kill the enemy and he can't see you, it's game over. Especially in the sand storms. Actually I kind of felt sort of sorry for them. If you'd ever seen a T-72 hit by a sabot or a HEAT round, it's pretty grim. Secondary explosions just torching the whole crew alive. Some of our friendly fire kills were just as grim.

I have a few takeaways from this particular episode. 1.) Ya failed to include the British 8th. Army's own ferocious tank battle as they moved into Kuwait 🇰🇼, itself, alongside the US Marines' attack. In fact, it was a Challenger 1 tank that recorded the longest tank-on-tank kill shot of just mite OVER 3 MILES!!! 2.) While I mentioned it, the Marines' own nasty tank engagement at the Kuwait International Airport. Mind you, they, the Marines, were using the M-60 MBT as their armored regiments' tank of choice!!! Yet, they blasted ta hell, a good chunk of Iraqi armor. Though, they DID take some heavy losses. (A Marine tanker can correct me on this. As my memory is shoddy on it.) 3.) Our French allies, too, who were guarding the Allies' far left flank, ALSO had engaged Iraqi armor, too. While this, SOLELY, focus' on American tank battles. If you TRULY wish to tell the story of the final tank battle(s) of the 20th. Century, THEY MUST BE included, too. Otherwise, you're NOT getting the WHOLE, COMPLETE picture of that battle. So, c'mon. Please, get it right. Modify this episode to include those tank actions from the Marines and, our French and, British Allies, too, okay???? What's fair, is fair; what's right, is right!!

@@joshmeads I've got news for you the T 72 was stripped down . Those Side Skirts where Vacuuformed plastic . They had to use rope to mount the rockets on the launch rail and even if they launched one there was a 65 to 85 percent chance of it blowing up infront of the tank . It was a gas guzzler and the Russians took out the more efficient engine and put in an old junker from the Korean War . They couldn't maneuver around at night because The Red Guard had the only night vision equipment and from what I've heard from one of our Tankers , it was also a piece of crap . This information is first hand experience from my friend the afore mentioned tanker with After Combat Tactical reports because he knew that I like collecting that kind of stuff .

To be honest, I felt sorry for the Iraqi Army. I didn't feel that way about Suddam Hussein! I think Suddam bit off a heck of a lot more than his Army could chew. The Republican Guard was one thing but those Army conscripts just wanted to go home. They probably didn't know or even understand exactly what was going on.

Rommel was one of the few that was against the whole "Nazi" bs. he fought purely for his country and was a strategist purely out of personal want to improve. yes he did know about the holocaust and that shit but was not a direct participant in those atrocities. he defied Hitler's orders several times while in Africa. his downfall was the inevitable crawl of the giant war machine in north America. his forces could not keep supplied thus losing well over 90% of his fighting force due to attrition alone. Rommel with a 100% supplied fighting force was a near unstoppable force.

@@lasuzzoeagle1 honestly he was against hitlers regime enough that many conspiring generals wanted him to take over after they assassinated hitler. Which sadly lead to his death even though he had never agreed or wanted to do it. Hitler gave him an ultimatum to kill himself or face execution and have his family publicly denounced

20:35, idit. the comms and intelligence network was gone for Iraq in the opening of the 91 Iraq, the Iraq tanks did not know "where" the abram,s tanks would attack from. you had every advantage under the sun. this whole dramatization of this engagement was bullsht.

Peter Ashtar 0 seconds ago This is a great summary of how superior the Abrams tanks were compared to Russian T-55s and T-72s. That was over 20 years ago. Today, we see that a good anti-tank missile, like the Javelin, can turn a main battle tank into scrap in seconds. So we will get to see how the Russians have advanced in their anti-tank missiles in that past 20 years and if those Abrams the US are sending to Ukraine become targeted by Russian drones and turned into $8M piles of burning scrap. Same with the Leopards that Germany are sending. That would be a bad look for US technology.

To be fair, that was hardly a great tank battle. It was a massacre, a turkey shoot, or whatever you want to call it. One American was killed. One. What it was, was a display of superior technology, but by no means was that a great battle.
