Top 5 Tanks | Lazerpig at The Tank Museum

The hilariously outlandish and tank-loving KZbinr Lazerpig came to see us recently. Not only did he pick out his Top 5 Tanks from our collection… but he honoured us with his very first on-camera appearance. Neither will disappoint!

"the Sherman is quite good for what it was designed for." Well so was the Tiger. Proved it numerous times from North Africa, to Russia to Normandy. However, it was sometimes used in roles it was not designed for. Neither tank was crap.

And for the same reason the T 72 is remembered as one of the great tanks of the 20th century and of the new century. Designed with overarching strategic concerns warfare in mind it has adequate to above average tactical characteristics, but is best optimized for transport, repair, and production.

a case of the paper and the test range saying the Tiger is great vs a Sherman in a 1 vs 1 duel or a 3 vs 3 duel. fails to account for stuff like the logistic nightmare one tank can be over the other. Does not matter if you have the best tank in the world if you can get it off the little island it was built on (not talking about the UK here but more the small island on the river where some idiot put a tank factory on and now gets informed that the bridges can´t take the tank you just built. It does not matter if your tank is the best if it have the maintenance requirments of 20 hour of maintenence per 1 hour of driving. vs the US sherman that I think was like 4 per hour or so.

It was the only British tank to serve throughout the entire war, and also the only British tank to serve on all three fronts of the war. It holds those titles for a reason. The Matilda II wasn't a terrible tank. It was just a dead-end design - too small, underpowered, undergunned - with no capacity to have its flaws ironed out. People tried, but it was just easier to design a new tank altogether. However, the Matilda was in its element when it was allowed to move slowly and bully tanks smaller than itself, because under such conditions it was basically invincible. In the dense jungle terrain of Pacific islands, the Japanese hated it because their usual anti-tank weapons and tactics were almost useless against it.

The reason is production date and lend-lease; nothing else. The Churchill and Valentine both fought on every front for the duration of the war as well. The only difference is they weren't available in 1939. The reason it continued to serve throughout the duration of the war is every army used old tank designs throughout the war.

Greetings from Finland. This, and Lazerpig's ramblings in your warehouse, put several huge smiles on my face. Thank you very much!

The real lazerpig is off looking for femboy pigs on another ranch

[@kenicherothered6816]

The way LazerPig talks about himself, I honestly imagined him being American levels of fat. Here in the States we usually call that "heavy set". I was wondering how someone his supposed size manages to maneuver in between all those tanks in storage. That'll do Pig, That'll do.

[@fehzorz]

I don't know why but I was expecting him to be north of 400lbs

Coming back to this video, I gotta say lazerpig nailed being a presenter in front of a camera. I'm sure there were loads of takes and a lot of practice but he made it look easy. Props to The tank museum for such a great collaboration.

[@BazilRat]

The Sherman is a great tank because it is not a great tank at any one role a tank has to do. The Sherman is a *good enough* tank at EVERY JOB a tank has to do Edit: As others have pointed out, 'good enough' should actually be 'pretty good'.

[@Amiryllis_Thorn]

Note about Iraqi tanks in Desert Storm/Shield, if you look at the footage of Iraqi tanks during Medina Ridge you can see that they were hulling down and entrenching their armor, and the Abrams would still pierce straight through the entrenchments and pop them like they were nothing. (Iraqi tank commanders would also get out of their tanks to observe and make commands. So the Coalition forces could just pop on thermals, and see a guy standing on a tank and then just shoot it.

[@emergcon]

Funny thing is: The Irak Army was way more capable than the russians.

[@demomanchaos]

@@emergcon I genuinely wonder if the force bunker grandpa sent into Ukraine could pull off Desert Strom at all, or if they would have been stuffed entirely and sent packing. Side note, pretty sure the Bradley IFV got more T-72s than the Abrams which is hilarious.

[@MegaMan192]

I've had a bias against lazerpig for a while, but when he talked about the sherman, overall I agreed. I would also argue on a versatility front, since it was able to be outfitted and become basically everything, it only took some ingenuity to mod (as shown by the concrete armor shermans, jumbos, fireflies, the list goes on), however, what he said was correct from everything I know

[@ancaplanaoriginal5303]

To be fair, during the Gulf War the M60 also performed flawlessly, with only one tank lost to enemy action.

[@JAnx01]

That says more about the crews and circumstances than the tanks themselves. The US bombed all the Iraqi command centers. The Iraqi army was effectively blind, deaf and uncoordinated.
