New Ranzar Video


 

Hmmm… for a clip about an evil invader breaking all international law, there are not enough peninsulas…

(BTW IS tank as Stalin, that I understand, but why is Czech-designed 38t nA depicted as Hitler?)

The Tiger that was never crowned: VK 45.02 (P)

The popularity of World of Tanks is greatly helping to spread interest in tank history, however some of the inaccuracies in the game are starting to create a new strain of internet tank myths.

One of those is about the VK 45.02 (P), Porsche’s failed bid for a Tiger successor, represented in WOT by two tanks that are both way above their historical counterpart, especially what they call the “Ausf B”.

Today we will use Special Panzer Variants by Spielberger, Panzer Tracts 20-1, Kingtiger Heavy Tank and Germany’s Tiger tanks – VK 45-02 to Tiger II by Jentz & Doyle.

The roots of a Porsche Tiger improvement starts in early 1942, with the very first proposal of a “Typ 101 Verstaerkt” (strengthened), soon changed into Typ 180 (Electric transmission) and 181 (Hydraulic), designated by Wa Pruef 6 as VK 45.01 (P2), VK 45.02 (P) and finally Tiger P2.

Free Slot, Everyone!

Hello everyone,

it seems that EU server (not sure it applies anywhere else) is getting a free garage slot, courtesy of Wargaming! From today:

shot_010

Apparently, what happened is they resetted the Karl mission (since Karl mode was, on popular demand, prolonged to 7.4.2014) and it added the slot again. Currently, it’s not sure whether this is a bug or it was intended (considering free stuff is usually heavily advertised, my money’s on bug) and whether it will be removed.

Fiat’s Super-Tank; The Fiat 2000

Author: Vollketten

So I’ve done a couple of Italian tank articles now and I haven’t done the most famous of all; the Fiat 2000. I also must thank Zarax too for his help with this one too.

Having witnessed the success of tanks in France in 1917 Italy set out about obtaining FT-17 and Schneider tanks from France. Fiat however perhaps sensing a lucrative contract in the offing had started designed a Special Assault Tank as early as August 1916 before any official Italian Government interest.

This design was finally ready in January 1918 in the form of the Fiat 2000.
