Alright, the interior today! This Panzer IV sure has quite a history.

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it.

This is it. All the other Panzer IV channels can go home. This series will never be topped. Great questions with even better answers. It's the details. Now I know there's a little step to help the bow gunner get in and out. A result of feedback from testing, I'd guess. Or maybe they thought of it from the design phase. Might seem like an odd thing to focus on, but I love knowing what every little bit is there for.

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Thankyou for the kind words. We take pride in going into the real depths most people miss. It is hard work and a lot of editing but worth it. If you enjoy in depth, please also check out our B29 video and Me109.

@@MilitaryArmamentsCompany Thank you for doing this!!! Modelers have waited for this series for 50 years!!!

[@gorbalsboy]

I think you've gotten a bit overexcited wee man ,have a look at other channels when you get fed up looking at hardware,see the bigger picture 😊

[@taofledermaus]

When seconds count, it only takes minutes to get out of that thing! Really enjoying these detailed looks at the tank.

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Glad your enjoying the detail and sitting through all our hard work. Our pleasure.

Excellent, thankyou!

[@dg2973]

I can say this was just fantastic video. I always wanted to see interior of german tanks, thanks to you, your passion, and your fantastic chanel I managed to do that. Thank you very much!

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Thankyou for the kind words. It means a lot. This series has been one of our biggest undertakings. We definitely aim to do more. If you enjoyed the in depth you may also like our B29 Super fortress or our Me109 In Depth videos.

A ‘Panzer Rick’ t-shirt needs to happen! (I noticed the pickle rick shirt at around 11:40 ish). Unfortunately there’s probably copyright issues if you guys made and sold these. But if you do make them, that would be so awesome and hilarious. Maybe Rick in a black uniform, with a headset, upper body sticking out of the commander’s hatch of a panzer 4, and the entire tank is that green pickle texture. If this happens I want credit for the idea haha!

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Ha! "IM PANZER RICCCKKKKKK!"

[@theonlymadmac4771]

26:06 translation: „ before aiming the gun undo the lashing“ ( one could lash the gun to the turret during march in order to relieve the load on the gun elevation mechanism)

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Excellent thankyou!

[@theonlymadmac4771]

Very interesting video, the tank owner is impressively knowledgeable!

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

We agree! Thanks for watching.

[@adlerarmory8382]

Love the "Farbkasten" by the Funker/Bow Gunner!

[@gernaneering]

Absolutely mind blowing detail, explanation's of numerous internal parts of this panzer iv H like never before and so enjoyable too, this video has such so much high quality which i totally love. thank you so much for your dedication to authenticity and is truly inspiring.

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Thankyou for the very kind words. We appreciate it good feedback. A lot of hours went into producing this, we are glad to see its valued. Enjoy the rest of the series. Panzer 2 Luchs is coming soon!

[@yattaran1484]

Thank you for the awesome Panzer IV series of videos !. As one of a Panzer parts collector, I know how hard to find those original rare parts !. Can't wait to watch part 5 of this. 😄

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Glad you enjoyed it. You will like Ep.6 about the restoration where Randy discusses his parts supply.

[@ukasz-zm9qc]

Simply awesome.

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@gvii]

Where in the H**l do you find an original gunner's sight? For either the main gun or the bow gun? Holy smokes.... That's absolutely wild he was able to actually source original ones that are obviously serviceable. Original radio gear??? Good God... Don't want to even venture a guess what any of that cost. And as typically German(i.e. over complicated) as the traverse system is, it's actually really neat since it does keep things very simple for the gunner. No farting around with separate controls for either drive. Man, this is really interesting. Getting deep into the minutiae you don't really get anywhere else. Fascinating as all get out. Maybe a little nuts too, but that's ok because you're just not going to find anything like it elsewhere. Just awesome stuff.

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Thankyou for the kind words. We take pride in bringing in depth footage no one else does, its hard work. One day of filming, weeks and weeks of editing in our own time. As for where Randy sources equipment, in our last episode in 2 weeks we discuss restoration and how he finds parts. Stay tuned.

[@enormhi]

These have been some incredible videos!

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Thankyou for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed it.

[@johngardner7024]

Beautiful restoration!

[@reconman15]

I feel like i will be a fully qualified panzer 4 crewman after finishing this series.

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

If you can retain this series word for word, you would be considered a Panzer expert!

[@reconman15]

@@MilitaryArmamentsCompany excellent. Looking forward to the next episode. In the meantime I will practise some angry German phrases to scream at people from the tank cupola.

[@daniellejones5981]

Something to add here. It seems there is not much room to operate, but times were harder back then! In the USA a lot of men were rejected as unfit or undersized [4F] because of malnutrition during the Great Depression when they were growing up. It was the same in Europe! Finding Men that would fit in these Tanks wasn't as difficult as it seems now!

[@theonlymadmac4771]

Funny seeing a big fat guy extracting himself out of the hatch. Contemporaries were a lot smaller, slimmer, fitter and motivated, so: no problem at all

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Ha! Scott is past his prime.

[@conceptalfa]

Don't know if I missed it, but any info on the origines, where it was found (Russia, France, Germany), in what condition, short about the resto work etc, etc....? I saw in some previous comments there were more followers wondering the same....

[@MilitaryArmamentsCompany]

Check out episode 1 of the series for some of that information. Coming soon is the last part of the series all about the restoration process. Thankyou for watching.

[@conceptalfa]

Will do, but think I actually already did, although not sure if I saw the whole episode.... might have got interrupted by something like a phone call and than forgot about the rest....

The actual expert is great the other guys "right","yeah",so its like"is moronic,all the best

[@HH-COactual]

So, your saying the guy who went to the effort of leading this interview and putting all this together, trying to educate both new comers to the subject and also keep the knowledgeable people interested, is a moron?
