se questo è un video ricolorizzato con l'algoritmo è veramente venuto bene!

[@ganimedeeuropa2272]

Insomma teoricamente dopo questo video ho imparato anch'io le manovre tattiche che devono fare le colonne di carri armati Sherman, Francis vuole il voto, io alla fine voglio il brevetto ^--^

Ché ne dicano i cultori del bianco e nero..... questi filmati a colori sono estremamente più realistici...😊👍

Quindi la scena in “ fury “. In cui gli sherman marciavano in fila senza la distanza delle 75 yards. Sarebbe stata un suicidio in realtà. Mi rendo conto che dietro al coraggio ci vuole anche molta preparazione

@@lucabonugli8763 It is a 1943 U.S. Army training film. It shows us how a WW2 Sherman tank unit prepared for an attack on march. The film covers night movement, camouflage when stopped and gives tips on being stealthier in your tank; it also covers how to use the columns firepower if attacked from the air. It emphasizes the importance of security on the battlefield: "Security means taking every precaution you can to keep yourself from getting knocked out of the scrap..." The tanks used in the film were all early M4A1 Shermans, but not super early since they are not DV tanks, but still have shorty gun mantlet and no telescopic sites, they do have heavy duty suspension as well. The tanks also have full turret baskets, with the 12 unprotected ready rounds, and no armor over the sponson ammo racks or the turret cheek add-on armor. Its possible training tanks did not have these features removed like tanks slated to see combat, or the film was made very early in the war. The main reason the film is interesting is the look at prewar combat, or pre air superiority march doctrine. The attention paid to defense from air attack would not be pushed nearly as much even by the Italian campaign and would be almost an afterthought by Normandy. Later films probably pushed very carefully searching for well concealed AT guns and infantry that the lead and flank scouts may have missed. It is also interesting how preparation for gas attacks is first thing they cover. I’m sure shortly after most unit got in combat they ended up losing or discarding most gas related gear, and I can’t ever recall seeing a man carrying a gas mask case or a square of the gas detecting paint on any vehicles in combat photos. HISTORICAL BACKGROUND / CONTEXT Tanks were an important weapons system in World War 2. Although tanks were the subject of widespread research in the inter-war years, production was limited to relatively small numbers in a few countries. However, during World War 2 most armies employed tanks, and production levels reached thousands each month. Prior to the entry of the United States into the war after the attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941, the Army had only a few tanks. On military exercises, the U.S. Army used trucks with the word "tank" painted on their side. Even after Pearl Harbor the 10th Armored Division did not have any tanks, so crews trained by marching down roads in groups and executing orders as if they were in tanks. The most important American design of the war was the M4 Sherman medium tank. The M4 became the second-most-produced tank of World War 2, and was the only tank to be used by virtually all Allied forces (thanks to the American lend-lease program); approximately 40,000 M4 Shermans were produced during the war. M4s formed the main tank of American, British, Canadian, French, Polish and Chinese units. The M4 was the equal of the German medium tanks, the Panzer III and Panzer IV, at the time it first saw service in 1942. The Red Army was supplied with about 4,000 M4s. The M4, although reliable and easy to maintain, was already outgunned by the time the US encountered the up-gunned and up-armored German medium tanks in Italy and Northern Europe (the Panzer IV and various German self-propelled guns) and by late 1943 the arrival of German Panther and Tiger I were even graver threats due to the range, accuracy and penetrating power of their main guns. The Sherman suffered from thin armor and poor ammunition storage. Flawed United States armor doctrine played a major role in keeping the M4 undergunned in 1944-1945. This doctrine emphasized that tanks were to be used primarily for infantry support and exploitation, while the role of fighting enemy tanks was to be carried out by the tank destroyer branch. By the time of the Normandy campaign, the M4 had become the workhorse tank of the Allied forces. Some Shermans were equipped with the Duplex Drive system (Sherman DD), which allowed them to swim. Along with this were the M4 Dozer (a Sherman with a bulldozer blade), the T34 Calliope (mounting a multiple rocket launcher above the turret), the M4A3R3 Flame thrower (flame tank), and the Sherman Crab Mark I (a Sherman with a mine flail), as well as many other variants.
