>"our previous heavy tanks have issues where the engine and transmission couldn't bare the weight and tend to sink to the ground and are very difficult to maintain and fix and too expensive to make, your thoughts hans?">make it.... more heavier.
>>65178750>tend to sink to the groundGround pressure for those bigass Germans things was not worse than for most other tanks of the period.That doesn't solve the transmission or engine overload, but they didn't randomly sink in mud, just llike T-34s, Panthers or Shermans didn't.
>>65178750its well known the axis suffered from bigger is better until they started to become defeated
Germans understood the most important thing.Military vehicles exist for two purposes:>Selling scale model kits>Video game assetsUltimately, nothing else matters.
I wish they hadn't made the folly of deploying such a heavy weapon in the forests and mountainous regions around the Rhine, but instead had at least deployed it on the Eastern Front to leave behind a record of glorious small-scale battles.
>>65178750>our previous heavy tanks have issues where the engine and transmission couldn't bare the weight and tend to sink to the ground>bare>sink into the groundA Tiger I had the ground pressure of a Sherman, dear ESL newfriend.>>65178824They would've actually been more successful if that were true. Hitler demanded the long 75 as the standard issue gun before they even invaded France. The military and industry then quietly never implemented it until he threatened heads would roll like 2 years later. At that point it was too late to have a full tank fleet with great guns for barbarossa.
>>65178787Maybe on firm ground, but on soft ground the heavier your tank is, the more likely it is to sink in and bog down no matter how wide your tracks are. The Maus had a ground pressure only 50% more per square inch than the Sherman, but look what happened here. Also,most of the bigger tanks had trouble being towed when damaged or they broke down, as well as trying to find bridges that could take their weight- most had to find shallow bits they could ford or snorkle across, hoping their fat ass tank didnt lose traction or dig in (due to their weight) trying to climb the soft bank on the other side (Tigers at Kursk).
>>65179586>Maybe on firm ground, but on soft ground the heavier your tank is, the more likely it is to sink in and bog down no matter how wide your tracks are.That's not how ground pressure works, you fucking retard lmaoWhere are you from? Did you not have any physics classes in highschool?
>>65179586>only 50% moreThat's a lot more
>bare the weight
What's with the recent trend of third worlders/ESLs coming here with a hateboner for the Wehrmacht? Did some reddit youtuber mention /k/?Hasn't been like that since the start of the 3 day special military operation when poles flooded the board.
>>65179586>but on soft ground the heavier your tank is, the more likely it is to sink in and bog down no matter how wide your tracks are.you've got plenty of confidence, anon. that's great. if only you weren't also an idiot
>>65179861>What's with the recent trend of third worlders/ESLs coming here with a hateboner for the Wehrmacht?how long have you been here, five minutes? the phrase "wehraboo" has existed for almost three decades now, specifically to make fun of people who grew up with nazi-glazing history channel specials.
>>65179900>how long have you been here, five minutes?20 years, anon.> the phrase "wehraboo" has existedThat wasn't my point, niggerboy.
>>65179900>the phrase "wehraboo">phraseIt's a single word, thirdie.
>>65179943https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/phrasedumb fuck
>>65179974Anon, unless you're talking about the grammatical structure of sentences you're not gonna use the fourth definition there. I doubt you even know what an adverbial phrase is.What the fuck are you doing on my board, brown boy?
>>65179586Do you know how snowshoes work?
>>65180003>anon tries to sound smart>accidentally tells on himself for not knowing how to read a dictionary
>>65180003hey man I know you're trying to conjure up a clever comeback to this post >>65180039just take the L and close the tab
>>65179900nta, but how long have you been here, 2 years? Back in 07-08 there were german military threads all the time on this board and the word wehraboo wasn't uttered once. Wehraboo is reddit leftist cope.
>>65180039>>65180052>brown anon embarrasses himself and now tries to pretend others don't know how to read the dictionary>doubleposts out of butthurt because I do other shit on the sidekekI'm sorry, nigger, but a phrase has more than one word unless you analyze the grammatical structure of a sentence. You couldn't even tell apart a subject from an object and it wasn't the topic in the first place, so that clearly doesn't apply here. How about the oxford dictionary?>inb4 no I was totally using the 15th century meaning where people used it on single words due to its original greek translation
>>65179586>>65179900>>65180039>>65180052>getting this insecure because you don't know how ground pressure works in your thread to let off steam about a war that ended almost a century agoCould literally not, in no way shape or form ever, be me.
>>65180097>anon wastes even more of his life failing to read a dictionary and acting smug about ityou'll get it someday kiddo. maybe ask your middle-school English teacher for some one-on-one time
>>65180222You're Indian, aren't you?I can't think of another ethnicity who'd just blatantly lie about how to read a dictionary when everybody who reads it knows that definitions are context-bound by nature and a tranny in a car is different from a tranny in your porn. Or, in this case, that "phrase" for grammatical construction is wrong to use outside of that context.-1000 izzat.
>>65179586>the heavier your tank is, the more likely it is to sink in and bog down no matter how wide your tracks areThat's just false. And German tanks had no more reliability issues than any other country. Every engineering program has a several weeks of teething issues of first batches.
>>65180237t.low caste tranny
>>65180237anon, why would an indian start a conversation by bringing up the History Channel?
>>65180265That's not how this started and he's just repeating reddit lore. Considering the antipathy he holds for people from the other end of the world 100 years ago and his lack of knowledge on the actual topic, this is probably not the first time it's been discussed.
>>65180283>That's not how this startedyes it is >>65179900
>>65180351>first he lies about how to use a dictionary and now he's pretending he's not OPlmao that's so pathetic man
>>65180353the fuck are you even talking about dude
>>65180357Probably something about ground pressure, anon. I heard that if the soil is soft enough it stops mattering and how heavy your tank is is more important.
>>65180361you should crack a window and get some fresh oxygen in your room
>>65180369I'm not Indian anon, my body odour isn't a lethal weapon. So what do you think about that ground pressure, huh? Weird how that flies out the window in mud.
>>65179586When you think about it, a ship is just a tank with really, really wide tracks.
It's just a phrase he's going through

So, can we have more Jagdtiger pics?
>>65178750>more heavierMore heavy or heavier, not more heavier.
Cent came with a BV so was the bestest tank.It made it into ww2 but things were over before they could get in harms way.
>>65181929Most heaviest!
so, will there be more Jagdtiger pics
>>65182796Bovington (The Tank Museum) has a Jagdtiger. Go and touch one yourself.
>>65181929heavierest
>>65182802Not postwar museum pics. Combat 1944-45 service nobody cares about OP topic only the picsit's an imageboard
>>65182802>Go and touch one yourself.(NTA) I have. It's nice to visit a museum where the exhibits are fine with being slapped on the ass and the staff have no problem with you doing so.
>>65182802>>65182844Forgot the picture
>>65182817OPs pic is a museum exhibit.Bovington is lovely.
>>65182817>Combat 1944-45 serviceFound some footage of a Jagdtiger engaged in urban combat towards the end of the war
