World of Tanks - A'Hetzing We Will Go!

[@paulplus3830]

As a German, I kinda disagree a bit with that translation of Hetzer. I know "baiting" comes up when you check for "Hetze", but I suggest you look up "hetzen", which would be the verb of it and you get things like: chivvy or hunt. To bait something is to lure as I understand it as a non-native speaker of English. But that's not what I think of, when I hear "hetzen" in German. I think of hunting something until it's out of stamina and basically submits to death.

[@gnaedigerfels]

I saw a Hetzer being driven around quite enthusiastically at the "A Military Odyssey" show at Detling several years ago. I certainly wouldn't describe it as slow - seemed quite fast and nimble to me in fact, so I can understand why its crews loved it, especially if its armour was as effectively thick as you said, and it's small size makes it easily concealable, so overall surviveable and deadly to the enemy.

[@playwme3]

But in other aspects, they would have hated it. I had the pleasure of riding in one a couple years ago. It’s pretty tight in there, and from my understanding there was no escape hatch in the belly. This means that if your driver was using that speed and nimbleness, and missed seeing something that could turn the tank on its roof ( also highly likely with the vision. No drivers hatch where you can get your whole head out to see whats going on) then you’re pretty much trapped in there.

[@19Frank12]

"Hetzer" - Only read if you are interested. I intend to inform, not to correct: I am not at all familiar with english hunting vocabulary but for me baiting is rather passive than aggressive. One would provide a lure or a provocation to trigger bevhaiour in the hunted animal (e.g. predator leaving its hideaway to go after a bait animal or the example you described). I understand that "Hetzer" can be translated as agitator (more in the socio-political sense) or even baiter which kind of fits your description. Somebody or something displaying aggressive behaviour to provoke a reaction in the prey, which is also what political agitators do. But "Hetzer" originates from "Hetzjagd" which might have various fitting translations to englisch (hunt, chevy, hounding, routing or battue). As you can see these forms of hunting are way more active than baiting would be. You pose one or multiple sufficient threats to the prey, so either it has to flee until it collapses due to exhaustion or you try to route it to a specific area (hounds routing prey animals to their hunting party). And this after all is a way better description of what the Hetzer did and the reason their crews liked them so much. To infantry and many tanks it was big enough a threat to force them to flee or to keep pushing them ahead of your tank division.

[@SC0RCH3er]

Jingles, Hetzer was based on 38(t), even build on the same line in BMM/ČKD near Prague but it is not done as a conversion from existing 38(t)s - those that Wermacht did not lose were given to german allies or were used for rear security in occupied territory, some might have been modified to flak panzers or were straight down stripped for parts (I think the engine and gearbox were the same or used many of the same parts in all 38t variants). Even the Marders (I think) were build from scratch because it was easier then to mess with existing hulls. Also the issue with the armor was more down to general construction method than to quality of the steel, where Germans used welding the pieces together, both ČKD and Škoda used riveting the armor plates to a skeleton construction (well at least for their original designs before Geman ocupation).

Keep pushing the corners/ridgelines yourself with no support from behind you (keeping the enemy concealed by the corner obstacle or dead ground on the far side of a ridge) and all you're doing is allowing yourself to be sniped at by their TDs and camping MTs/HTs and ensuring your removal from the battle prematurely.

Thank you for your most METAL of replays to this day! Lemmy, was an inspiration to me and my friends. a totally unique look, sound and he played lead bass guitar and seemed 12ft tall on stage! the man was also a gentleman. Dave Grohl of Foo Fighters was good friends with Lemmy, and told the story, at Lemmys funeral, about their first meeting in the bar where Lemmy played video games all the time. Dave approached Lemmy and said he didnt want to bother him, but that he was a big fan, and he had been the drummer in Nirvana. Lemmy soberly stood and turned toward Dave and shook his hand and told him he was sorry about his friend. that began a special friendship. when Dave and Lemmy were both at the same venue one night, Dave invited him down to his dressing room. Once there, Lemmy, noticing a baby present, put his trademark cigar out in his glass of Jack Daniels and Coke, and turned into a gentle and playful guy with Daves Daughter. if i remember, Dave asked Lemmy to be her godfather, i might not have that right. I know that Lemmy lived his life off of pizza, amphetamines, and downers to level out, and he played both extremes well beyond what would kill most of us mortals. but Lemmy was at least 1/4 god. He could out drink anyone, slept with thousands of women, he really had no preference, so he probably really ran up the numbers, and he had a modest start in music. he was a stage hand and roadie for a number of bands, and he said you could tell who the best loved bands were because they treated the help like real humans not something they tolerated to put on a show. he had a passionate hatred for the band Deep Purple for how they treated people. he said that Ozzy was with Black Sabath at the time but Ozzy sort of treated everyone the same, not so much like insects as he was a general asshole to everyone even of they were over his head. the man had to have an iron will, all those years of drug use didnt kill him, didnt even cause him problems. just weeks after his last tour, and days after his 70th year on his planet, he passed away to sneaky cancer in the bum. he had to be in pain all through the last tour, but he did it, and gave the fans everything he had! he used to give kids ride on his restored Hetzer, which according to my uncle is middle german for "Hunter". now, i know lots of people by way of youtube, and i do not get the ribbing or outright dislike for the Welsh, whats that story? do you realize that Wales is home to several rock and metal legends? it does itself proud. i am in the process of restomodding a 1968 ford Galaxie 500 2 door sedan. its got a big block, that MUCH bigger than it needs to be, and its going to get murdered out (it will get a satin black finish with black window tint, in the illegal range, and on the hood, theres a modest "scoop" that will show a faded image of Lemmys hat, and the trunk will have, in the font used on the last album cover, "Lemmy" with the fade effect. the engine will easily be able to hurl the car to speed with an 800hp or more, havent decided, and i wish i could work faster, but this virus going round, and the cost of the work, even what i do myself, costs time and money. i never got to see him perform in person, and i wish i had. interesting people are in short supply these days. i dont care about "reality" tv, or staged house purchases, or adverts for drugs to ask my doctor about. i want to hear great metal music, listen to great rock and metal, watch the few good tv shows or movies there are and keep trying to watch my rights and cut efforts to end those rights off at the knees. this time next year, if its not busy working on projects, i shall be hunting coyote and feral hogs, and mitigating the damage they do.

I come here for the history lessons: a note on the kind of dogs you would use for badger and indeed bear "baiting" - low profile with heavy jaws and thus a powerful bite.

[@steeljawX]

I think WWII German Armor SME/researcher/author Hilary Doyle said something along the lines of that the term "Hetzer" wasn't used in the Wehrmacht to refer to just the refitted Pzkw. 38(t), but was used to refer to any vehicle that performed the role of "hetz-ing" well. I wanna say that that was either on one of the "Inside the Chieftains Hatch" videos or during the 2012 Operation Think Tank seminar. But this was just the most common well performing "hetzer" out of the group that it's believed that that's why the name ended up sticking. I could be misremembering the finer details, but I'm pretty sure Hilary Doyle said something along those lines of hetzer was a shared term rather than a specific name originally.

Me being one of them people who do not have english as my first language, i would like to state something: hetzen means not bait but chase... So a hetzjagd would be a hund where you might set your hounds to a deer or an equivalent game.... What you referre to with the badger would be called "baujagt" so as i understand it the "hetzer" would refere to someone (or something) that chases someone (or something)... In Austria we still use the term "hetz" (meaning the chase) in phrases like "des woa a hetz" (that was a chase) as something funny or enjoyable, refering to the "fun" it is to set your hounds to some game and than chase it untill the hounds tear it to pieces....

The word hetzer has several possible translations. Baiter is just one of them. I've also seen it translated as chaser and bushwhacker. Sorry to disappoint Girls und Panzer fans, but the Jagdpanzer 38t was not built on a Pzkw 38t hull and that scene where they pull the top half off a 38t and drop a Jagdpanzer casement on it would have been impossible. The Germans took the 38t hull and made it longer and wider. Then they modified the suspension to handle the additional weight of more armor and a big gun and installed larger road wheels. After that, they put in a more powerful engine and a stronger gearbox. By the time they finished, the hull had gone through too many changes to be a Pzkw 38t anymore, although the driver's controls would probably have been recognizable to someone who'd served in one.

Oh Jingles...this time you completely missed the mark with your translation and explanation of "Hetzer" or the verb "hetzen". Sorry, I HAVE to perform an "aaaaaactually Jungles"-action...I am German after all, and we can not stand any inaccuracy ;-) Simply put: Baiting is a, more likely passive, "pull"-action, when you pull your target out of cover with the help of a bait. "Hetzen" or being a "Hetzer" is a very active "push"-action, when you hunt, dash or hound your target and pressure it out of its cover, until it runs out of stamina. Even to the extent, that it has been "totgehetzt" -> rushed to death. The hunt even has a special name: "Hetzjagd" (coursing, chase) with lots of "Hetzhunde" (hound dogs) to hunt deer, wild boar, foxes. And yes, it is gladly evenly forbidden now. Additionally, (actually Jingles^^): Although the tank ways certainly reliable, it almost had no view range, which led to very poor operability in everything else, than defensive actions. Even in the defensive it was highly vulnerable, because it was highly dependent, to not get flanked - and the frontlines at it's time were not nearly as coherent, as the years before. The crews referred to it as a "mobile coffin", because there was almost no way to escape the tank in an emergency situation (like being hit...^^). Combine that with the piss-poor visibility from the inside, the moral of the (often very green and young) crews, was (mildly put) a bit on the "uneasy" side. I'd be veeeery interested, where you've got the positive crew-reports from. I'll lead myself back into the deepest depths of the salt mine. Finally some proper wörk for a proper overlord.

when I heard Jingles attempt of translating the name into english I just had to pause the video and check out the comments^^

[@InternetEntity]

Jingles! Didn't you know? The verb 'to Hetz' is to be a small, sneaky, relatively well armoured tank destroyer. Thus a 'Hetzer' is a thing that does small, sneaky, relatively well armoured tank destroyer things.

[@laiebi_3639]

But thats not the german meaning at all, its the wrong word for the english name

[@Buzzdog1971]

RIP Lemmy you were one in a million.

[@TheBasje1993]

The meaning of Hetzer is more along the lines of agitator, instigator. Or too hunt/chase ;) Dutch/German speaking over here.

[@seaninness334]

To my "American ears" it sounded like you were actually pronouncing it correctly (heh) as beta and not baiter (how is er pronounced as a?). Interesting review of the Hetzer Jingles. I wasn't sure if the reverence for the vehicle was still around with all the new tanks and rebalancing over the years. When the game first came out and there were no tier 9's and 10's, the scariest vehicle was the Ferdinand and the Hetzer it's Tier 4 equivalent. The Ferdi is all but forgotten now, but I still play it once in a while. Anyway, cheers to another good video Jingles.

Hey, atleast the T28 had some sense, which made the ending more tense than just stomping noobs

[@theamazinggoldfish8713]

Ahha nothing like an big bowl of "Jingles" in the morning.🏹🤠👍

[@Finwolven]

All right, all right, the obligatory: Hetzer's gonna hetz.

[@Arclite02]

Ah, the Hetzer... Holder of my 2nd highest ever kill count - 8 kills. And the only reason it wasn't significantly higher is that my team had another Hetzer on the other flank, who killed the remaining 7 tanks more or less at the same time as me! As for my highest kill count, that would be the time, just barely after launch, when the game glitched out hard and put my howitzer-armed Panzer III into an otherwise completely Tier 1 battle. Racked up 21 kills, that match...

[@testdriver3146]

The Swedish word Hetsa, of course from Ger. has the meaning 'to rile up' or 'to anger'. Hetsa inte upp dig, will therefore mean 'Don't get riled up'. Hetsa hundarna, meaning to rile up the hounds. Upphetsad, is literally "aggravated or sexually aroused.

[@Trillock-hy1cf]

I like my little Hetzer, starting from scratch again, as I don't play much since donating my account back in 2018, to a clan member because he wanted another garage, with decent tanks, because he was always being XVM targeted because he was a 'blue' player, and I was just a lowly 'orange' one....:) I don't play much since I restarted in 2019, and for example I have only played 135 games in the Hetzer since then....*sigh. The best I have done in it is 5 kills, on a good day, and nothing like the game play of this chap, and am impressed and not at all jealous......honest!!

[@tomhoni9642]

actually Hetzer was quite unpopular because it was cramped, uncomfortable, got wet inside during rain and when you got hit its very hard to bail out. plus sides being low profile,frontal armor very bouncy and same firepower as a Stug.

[@dibidus6080]

If Hetzer is tier 4 as Jingles said, does that disqualify it from earning Kolobanovs? Isn't it only for tier 5 and higher or am I wrong?

[@Tiglath-Pileser3]

I was thinking the same, but it has been years since I played tanks. I know some of the medals were only available at tier 5+

[@gamingary]

Actually Jingles the jagdpanzer 38t shares almost no components with the pz 38t according to Nicholas Moran better known as The Chieftain its simply that the vehicles share some visual similarities because they were built by the same company

[@42meep13]

Jingles the Panzer 38t was a JagdPanzer, not a Panzer Jager. A hunting tank not a tank hunter. The first category is armored Tank Destroyers, while the latter were light vehicles like the Marter. Also, panzer38t not being a modified Panzer38t.exe seen the comments on that one already.

The arty found a window he hadn't licked yet and was afk.

[@AnubisMRM]

One could say that SaltOldViking is a master Hertzer :)

[@BTultras]

Worklunch with a Jingles video ^^ nice :D

[@madogthefirst]

How to get featured on jingles: play a derp tank. One video a week and they are all derp tanks.

[@enyaliosares4301]

as a notebook repair tech. they will have your computer in a giant warehouse. they will have laid off or furloughed most of their workers to ensure that the little amount of work coming in is enough to make coming to work worthwhile. making both work coming in slower and work going out equally as slow

[@Benrix11]

Great video and history lesson.

[@raiiabeart9569]

good way to start off a birthday and thats wit ha hetz vid XD
