from officer training at Bad Tolz. You are the cream of the Panzer Elite and are ready to fight for a new Europe. The Fatherland is proud of you. Due to the necessity of war your first command will be of a tank company ready for action immediately!It is comprised of one captured kv 2. Goodluck!Discuss captured armour in use by foreign forces or just shoot the shit, I drgaf
Neat. Here's a couple pics I made showing the stock T-34 vs the German modifications
>>64564697>hans's on horses in background lmao
How come we never saw ISIS using captured Iraqi equipment like Humvees? Did they ever try and get the Abrams working?
>>64564691
>>64564733thaliban put most of the kit to work though didnt they
>>64564691The Germans used EVERYTHING they captured.
>>64564704They had WWI tier logistics
While captured T-34s were seen in large numbers at Kursk, we rarely hear of the KV being used. It could have been a direct fire support vehicle, combining the large caliber and heavy armor that was sorely needed during the Battle of Stalingrad.
>>64564761generally were they just used until breakdown and then blown up or did they try and service them in the field. how would they get spare parts?
>>64564770Other captured tanks
>>64564691>when you pulled the long straw
>>64564927this must have been a shock for them
>>64564927Looks post-war
>>64564691>one captured kv 2. The tactical use is primarily as a bunker buster or possibly an artillery piece.On the one hand, I'm glad to be in the rear with the gear.On the other, I'm sad being a tank ace isn't on the cards.On the third hand, I'm disgusted to be stuck inna shitty slav shitboxe and my only consolation is that they don't have the air to ground capacity to pose a credible threat. Also, where's my ammo?
>>64564704>>64564759Horses work in the mud.
>>6456498611 rounds we scavenged. Some look damaged.
>>64564927That's a mobile artillery piece. Again, in the rear with the gear, but unfortunately, the British and Americans had the capacity to target specific ground targets with regularity.
>>64565000>11 rounds we scavenged. Some look damaged.Looks like we'll be infantry shortly, boys.
Large numbers of captured field guns and AA guns were reworked to fit German ammunition, but the use of captured tanks required a huge number of consumable parts, making this a tedious process.
>>64564957Definitely. M7 were used by the Bundeswehr and Nazi Germany always used straight crosses.
>>64564755They used a lot of it yes, especially vehicular
>>64564986ammo he says
>>64566989>You see tovarisch, if we not send you ammo enemy cannot take ammo and use you tank if you are capture!
>>64564759Partial reliance on horse logistics was the norm outside the western allies.
>>64572246so on the losing side mostly you mean
>>64564759Idiot take.
>>64572995Besides fighting units, the Wehrmacht wasn't that much different than the Kaiser's army.Stay mad
>>64572246Japan didn't have horse logistics.
>>64564755Shit dude they were so desperate for hardware that they pulled Chauchats out of French stores.
>>64573488checked, more pics of AFVs captured by Japan pls

>>64564733>>64564746What? they did alot lmao
>>64564691>Due to the necessity of war your first command will be of a tank company ready for action immediately!I guess I'd try to get attached to a good infantry regiment as an assault gun.
>>64564759Reddit/youtube tier take.>>64572246>>64572985It was the norm for every army except the American Army and the British army due to American aid.
>>64575067>It was the norm for every army except the American Army and the British armyWhich made the bulk of the western allies after a certain point in the war. >British army due to American aid.Majority of the truck production would have been domestic(within the British Empire), not sure about how many lend-lease trucks were sent, but the only reasons I can think of American aid would be decisive would be fuel or considering Canadian production as American.Soviets were the greatest recipient of foreign trucks.
>>64576052>Which made the bulk of the western allies after a certain point in the war.What's supposed to be the point here? >Majority of the truck productionNigger, you need oil to fuel trucks.>not sure about how many lend-lease trucks were sent281,000 trucks (and other motor vehicles) went to then British Empire.
>>64576062>What's supposed to be the point here?They were the Western Allies esp. when they had motorized logistics. >Nigger, you need oil to fuel trucks.>only reasons I can think of American aid would be decisive would be fuelRead retard>281,000 trucks (and other motor vehicles) went to then British Empire.You're going to have to figure out how much of that was other motor vehicles to make a point. Beyond there were about 800,000 vehicles in that vague category produced by Canada. >Of the 800,000 military vehicles of all types built in Canada, 168,000 were issued to Canadian Forces. Thirty-eight percent of the total Canadian production went to the British. The remainder of the vehicles went to the other Allies.
>>64573109Absolute idiot take.Hint: The Kaisers army wouldn't have been able to pull off the logistics required for the advances in '39 and '40 (let alone Barbarossa) in their wildest dreams.
>>64573752Seeing as I recall these pics, that's Latvian SS, so not exactly prime supply priority.t. Latvian
>>64576181>They were the Western Allies esp. when they had motorized logistics.Yeah, they were western allies, so was every other western ally, that's why I said >>64575067>It was the norm for every army except the American Army and the British army due to American aid.>Read retardStop fucking guessing, you dumb nigger.>You're going to have to figure out how much of that was other motor vehicles to make a point.I was just helping a low information/low IQ poster out here. You're so focused on arguing, you can't be bothered to look up easily available public information that would actually be relevant to your argument.Actual subhuman behaviour. The point remains:>>64576062>Nigger, you need oil to fuel trucks.
>>64577614>so was every other western ally,The ones that were occupied for most of the war or could possibly be categorized with the British? Which surely could never have motorized without US vehicle production and the only plausible source of oil for any of those countries anywhere they operated was from the US.
>>64578043The norms of the war aren't based on who doesn't get conquered by Germans, anon.But yes >Which surely could never have motorized without US vehicle production and the only plausible source of oil for any of those countries anywhere they operated was from the US.>>64576062>Nigger, you need oil to fuel trucks.Wait until you find out where the brits got their high octane fuel from that gave their spitfires a 30% performance increase after France fell.
>>64575034>>64575039>>64575044excellent
