WW2 THE TANK BRIGADE - TANKOVA BRIGADA

[@kemo197]

( 2 )The operation started on 8 September. It took the Soviets three days to take Krosno (it was captured on 11 September). One of the biggest battles in the pass took place on and around Hill 534 in the northwest from the town of Dukla; the battle to capture this hill lasted from 10-20 September, and during that period the control of the hill changed more than 20 times. The town of Dukla was seized on 21 September.

[@WolfhoundMercenary]

Amusingly, the authentic equipment still beats any war movie from today :D

[@spreadeagled5654]

That’s the reason why the Russians kept all of their T-34s for movies and parades to this day.

When I was a kid in the 60's I'd sit under an old tin bath while my friends would throw rocks at it to simulate being in a tank ,good old fashioned fun..

[@vtk24804]

I just remembered a scene from a film called "Obecná Škola" also known as "Elementary School" in english, it was released in 1991 and as you said you was simulating driving a tank, the two boys in this film are simulating that they are driving Sd.Kfz. 251 (German armored half track) which was a real one but broken.

[@johnnymitz]

For its age, production budget, or overall intent, not a bad scene. Seems quite authentic.

Pour les francophones, ce film tchécoslovaque de propagande tourné en 1955 met en scène la 1ere bridage de chars indépendante tchécoslovaque formée par l'Armée Rouge lors de la bataille de la passe de Dukla (8 septembre-28 octobre 1944) et son avancée en Slovaquie. 3000 militaires de l'armée populaire tchécoslovaque ont joué les figurants avec comme on le voit d'importants matériels d'époque :)

[@drsnypejsek]

these are Czechoslovak tank unit as a part of Sovier Army...the scene depicts their reach of Czechoslovak border

[@michaelluisi1708]

Amazing authenticity regarding the equipment, uniforms, tanks and their markings. I love the Panther and the 8.8cm with the pigs head mantle. I've watched the entire movie with subtitles. Very good and highly recommended for those who are interested in Russian and German WWII equiptment.

[@jaggernutox]

i kinda like old movies like this, the zero CGI makes it way more awesome, even tho this is obviously a politically made propaganda film. Also getting actuall WW2 gear was way easier, just poke around some random fields in russia.

[@danielmarek9110]

It´s not a propaganda film. This film is almost based on true events!!!! It´s about czechoslovak soldiers fighting in 1. czechoslovak batalion in SSSR and Czechoslovakia. This is short part of Dukla operaion...

[@saiien2]

+Александр Правый I´am slav but it doesn´t mean that I must be also a communist :) Yes they were brave men and they all have my deep respect like all soldiers. But this movie is very affected by communists who ruled in our country in this age. You can see that in movie.. many times there is said "how democrats are corrupted, bad and imperialist. Yes it is a good WW2 movie, but there is also some "political" propaganda. As you said. I´m slav (but czechs have also something from germans in truth so we are not 100% slav like russians or ukrainians, some of my ancestors were germans and austrians for example) but word slav doesn´t mean communist ;)

[@TheLordhorationelson]

thank you =)

[@WolfhoundMercenary]

The reason this movie looks so good is because it was still not too long after WW2, so they had a lot of authentic german/soviet machinery lying around that could be used, which made the movie feel realistic. Also you see that PAK getting rolled over by a T34? That was a real PAK as well. They had so many historical leftovers, they could even destroy them like this - for movie artistic purposes of course. :D

have you watched the movie? Soldiers transferred from Czechoslovak tank brigade in England to the eastern front are cowards, the commander of tank batallion is first 'apolitical soldier' but gradually 'gets it' and becomes a communist:) representatives of Czechoslovak government in exile (from London) who come to visit frontline troops are interested only in scheming and do not support troops at all. Only good 'political guy' is old czech communist veteran of bolshevik army in russian civil war..... But it is great to see such quantities of historic vehicles in action! truly amazing

( 3 ) The area of the former Czechoslovak state border-heavily fortified by the Germans-was captured on 6 October; it took almost a month for the Soviet forces to reach Slovakia. The Dukla operation did not end when the Soviets forced the pass. The combat zone shifted to Eastern Slovakia, with Soviet forces trying to outflank and push back the German forces, still strong and having many fortified positions.

[@yurxce_2929]

I truly adore the fact that either Nazi-supporters, sympathizers whichever truly have the time and redundancy to come and comment on which is obviously a propagandistic film. However, propaganda or not, it captures the sense of war. You say “oh yeah, but the soviets lost this many men” or a overused statement I’ve seen, “German weapons can destroy the soviet hordes”. Yes, the Soviets may of lost thousands of men however, you’re speaking about an army that has millions and millions in reserves. For ever Soviet soldier that died in WWII, there would be 10 more to replace him. So, no matter how many you kill. The ending result would still be a Soviet victory. Same goes for Vietnam, American historians say that the US won from the amount of Vietcong they killed. Which is obviously a redundant statement because, yes. You killed multiple Vietnamese soldiers, but the country is still ultimately communist. Also considered the US used multiple illegal tactics, such as spraying Agent Orange over the jungles, causing massive sickness and deformities in future generations of Vietnamese peoples. Which is ironic because, when the Soviets invaded Finland in 1939. They were kicked off the League of Nations, (The UN at the time) . But when the US sprays a country with chemicals and gases, it’s bluffed off as in the name of the good cause and democracy. The US lost the Vietnam war because their primary objective was to keep Vietnam a non-communist state, for which failed.

[@WolfhoundMercenary]

Stick Comixs! Well said

[@faltanato6375]

Soviets had better enginering in war than germans,problem was not all soviet pilots pr soldiers were that experienced as the regular ones of WW1 and Rus civil war....germans usually changed their MP40 for a good PPSH-41 or even capturing soviet tanks and lots of ammo and new tech. US did not killed so many as they say,technically when they have come to vietnam war in 1968 the war already have 1,6million vietnamese deaths...US did lost more aircraft power than any other faction in that war,losing about 9k aircraft vehicles and parts...losing tons of ammo and even using Agent orange in their own men

ok, sorry, maybe i said wrong: it wasn't designed special for street fights however the tank was best used in town fights. So that wasn't bad tank for western front but wasn't good choice for eastern front. Another weakness was The dual torsion bar system which easily clogged with dirt, was hard to repair, and in extremely cold conditions wheels froze to each other. Actually good tank to use on eastern front should be light not to get stuck in mud. Also the best tank to compare with panther -T44

[@bazeye]

"Also panther was designed mainly for town fights in the narrow streets" Wrong, the Panther was designed for the large open spaces of the Russian front, that's why it was given strong frontal armor and a long high velocity gun, if it had been designed for town fighting it would have a short low velocity gun for firing high explosives into buildings like the Brummbar.

[@kemo197]

( 4 ) South of the pass and directly west of the village of Dobroslava lies an area which has come to be known as the "Valley of Death". Here Soviet and German armor clashed in a miniature reenactment of the great tank battle of Kursk. Soviet and Czechoslovak forces would enter Svidník on 28 October. A major German fortified position near the pass, Hill 532 "Obšár", would be secured as late as on 25 November 1944.

[@shuikicheung9956]

大製作似足真戰場?Big production similar to real battlefield ?

[@konman001]

Panzerfaust, 88s and anti-tank mines could also destroy them - but that is why you didn't just send tanks into the frontline. You had to send in infantry, use artillery and hopefully have airpower available. A good assault would have a mix of different specialists/technologies to maximize the effect. German tanks certainly were tougher but were expensive to make and took forever to make them. They also lacked some of the road performance that T-34s had and didn't perform as well in winter.

[@urdnotwrex6969]

It depends on what you mean by better, as far as i know the German Army was the best trained army of WW2, it had innovations that other armies did not have, especially the front line officers, all the officers in a German unit were trained to take the position of any officer that had been killed or wounded, however the Russians had the advantage of numbers so they could afford to lose more men which meant the men didn't have to be as good.

[@bazeye]

I disagree, the worst environment for any armored fighting vehicle is in an urban setting, because the buildings allow good cover for anti tank infantry to get close enough to use bazookas and AT grenades. However, in urban terrain, any AFV with a short barrelled low velocity gun will have an advantage over long barrelled high velocity gun like the Panther has, so it is best for long range anti tank work and not short range anti infantry work.in streets.

[@bazeye]

No one is comparing the Brummbar to the Panther, or saying the Brummbar is a tank, all i said was the Brummbar was designed for street fighting, and the Panther was designed for long range anti tank work in open ground.

[@KaelMorhen]

It wasn't, also panther was medium tank in German documentation In fact it was heavy tank, much heavier then any other medium tank of any other faction (like Sherman or T-34). Also panther was designed mainly for town fights in the narrow streets - it has great frontal armour,but vulnerable from the flanks. That's why this tank wasn't effective in fast frontal assaults on open fields-there always was high risk to be destroyed by AT soldier left behind.But anyway panther is my favourite WW2 tank

The panther was suggested and is the best tank of ww2, narrow for the streets and has a 75mm gun with slopped armour deflecting at shells and could go a fair speed it's just the came in 1944 so not a good amount were produced, if they were produced earlier like in the attack on Stalingrad or operation Uranus that could have changed the war or held off the enemy more and changed the battle of kursk or Minsk

OK. I've got the DVD of this movie. The thing to remember about it - is that it is Communist Propaganda. So - don't pay any attention to the plot. The only good part is - our Hero - gets the girl. What is great about this film - was that when it was made - they still had all kinds of actual German equipment around - and you can see it in these films. And of course - skads of T-34/85's and Lend Lease American Trucks and Jeeps. That is what's great about this movie and the reason for watching it - if you're the kind of person that gets something out of watching *_REAL_* German WWII Equipment. .
