It would be more terrifying if they showed german machine gunners firing sideways (as they actually did), instead of front-on. The Germans sited their machine guns to fire along the front of their positions (enfilade fire) in order to get maximum effect from them, so each gun supported several others. They never fired direct to their front as shown in this movie - and in just about every other movie :(

I think the Soviet tactics kept improving as they made there drive to Berlin. They learned to use air support as they moved and mobile artillery/rockets.

[@MK_ULTRA420]

It's more that the Soviet soldiers could rely on air support now that the Luftwaffe no longer dominated the skies, and the Katyusha rocket artillery were a ground-breaking technology at the time; Katyusha operators were explicitly told that any crew that abandoned their trucks or let them fall into German hands would be court-martialed and executed. TL;DR The Soviets would have done it sooner if they could. They didn't particularly like charging into the enemy (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_operation ) but during the war there weren't better options given their lack of time.

Not really. In this passage is shown nonsense. This is the end of the war, the Russian troops did not advance like this. If they noticed resistance, they would immediately call BM-13. And there would be nothing left of the German outpost. And if there was no "Katyusha", then the T-34-85 tanks would very quickly destroy any resistance.

Bullshit: the red army started the attack with heavy shelling before cavalry attack. Now there's not a single shell to german defense line.

[@mikem9001]

And the Germans are firing machine guns directly to their front. In reality they would have been firing off to the side so as to enfilade the entire line.

[@vitalisjakubauskas9567]

Just from time to time the Soviet infantry used to charge after some shelling , more or less effective. But very often they used so called "the reconaissance by the battle". Then infantry used to charge (some battalion against a compaign) WITHOUT any shelling. Why? Soviet reconnaissance needed to know how many German weapons are located against this front line and where they located. It looks like tipical Soviet "reconaissance by battle" was showed in this video. They laid down a batallion , but they know how strong Germans are in this place.

[@joskojansa1235]

@ stripedbottom is completely right. If soviet ware fighting like this they would not win the war. As you see in these scene germans needed one mashingun and one at gun to stop this attack. How the fuck do u think they win the war if they ware attacking like this???!!!

@@peraperic4202 By receiving tens of millions of tons of lend-lease aid from the allies. 25% of ALL their medium and heavy tanks in 1941: British 40% of their medium tanks during the Battle of Mosow: Lend-lease Five million soldiers' clothing: British Nearly ALL boots, 15.000.000 of them: Lend-lease. ALL of their trucks, more than 427.000 of them: American 5000+ anti-tank guns: Lend-lease. Munitions worth 308 million pounds (several times the ENTIRE soviet GDP) 3000+ superior Hurricane planes: British The Soviet tankers' prefered tank? The Sherman tank Lend-lease narrowly saved the Soviets, something that the Russian propaganda worked hard to conceal. Also the quality difference... Valentines, Matildas and Shermans were all good tanks for their era. This is a quote from a training manual for Panzerstörtruppen in 1941, about the KV1 and T34: "Slow and unmoveable. Effect mostly psychological. Combat effectiveness very low." The manual goes on to describe how the crews are nearly blind and there are a plethora of ways to disable Soviet tanks with mines, brandflasche and gebalte ladungen. One thing that contributed a lot was that the Soviet slave-workers just didn't care. Why would they? They were slaves. So oftentimes there weren't even any 76 mm shells for their tanks to fire at all, or they had one or two for an entire battle.

[@user-li5cr6wv5b]

Indeed. By 1944 they had enough guns, ammunition and transport. Besides, there are also tanks taking part. The major fuck up of an attack like this could have happened in 1941-1942 by a green inexperienced officer. In 1944 this would cost him his rank, and possibly life.
