Would the Nazis have won Operation Barbarossa if they had Type 95 Ha-Gos instead of Panzer Is?
>>65488109hell yeah.
>>65488109
>>65488109When the armour deflects tank shells does it sound like an oriental gong?
Parody (of a bad) thread
More importantly what would you name your tank as a nip commander in Manchuria? I'm going with Mulan's Dildo.
>>65488109yeah.
>>65488109Probably not.I am not sure what advantage OP thinks the Ha Go has over the Panzer I. But if you just where to take them as being equal vehicles (which they are not), the Ha Go requires one extra crew member to operate. Meaning that Germany would need 50% more men to field those tanks.Part of the advantage of even using Panzer Is is that they only need two people to operate them effectively.
>>65488353>I am not sure what advantage OP thinks the Ha Go has over the Panzer I.The Ha-Go has a powerful 37mm cannon.
Would OP have started this thread if he had brain matter instead of straw?
>>65488353Pz. I has two GPMGs as it's main armament. Type 95 has an actual gun.
>>65488362>>65488373Having a bigger gun isn't everything. The Panzer 1 basically fit the role of an IFV in the eastern front.The real question is, would the Ha Go be better at fighting infantry than the Panzer 1? As well as how well would they be in other situations such as fighting other tanks, assaulting fortifications, fire support, supporting armored break throughs. Then there is the question of how many could Germany realistically operate, produce, and maintain.In a matter of tank v tank, yeah the Ha Go is better for having the 37mm, and an extra crew. But that only matters in something like War Thunder. But the Panzer I isn't even in WT yet. So that argument is also irrelevant.
>>65488389>The real question is, would the Ha Go be better at fighting infantry than the Panzer 1?Yes without a doubt. A Pz. I rolls up on on a trench line and all it can do is spray 8mm bullets. A Type 95 rolls up and hose them down with 7.7mm plus 37mm HE rounds. The Type 95 could also reach a top speed of 28 mph on road vs the Panzer I's 23 mph.
>>65488389Pretty much anything is better than a Pz1, it was a test tank
>>65488389>The Panzer 1 basically fit the role of an IFV in the eastern front. The levels of retardation it takes to say this...
>>65488698What is it meant to fight then anon?
>>65488353>Part of the advantage of even using Panzer Is is that they only need two people to operate them effectively.Lindy is that you posting again?
>>65488109No. Unfortunately for wehraboos, the Nazis lost due of boring reasons, rather than any wunderwaffe. Their crippling weakness was the length of their logistical lines, reliance on trains and horses, and lack of crude oil for processing.Well, that and the sheer disparity of numbers between the Soviet Union and Germany. Without fighting on four different fronts, they would have still lost, but slower- Maybe slow enough to inflict enough hurt on the Soviets for a favorable peace.
>>65488389>The Panzer 1 basically fit the role of an IFV in the eastern front.No it did not? It fit the role of an obsolete light tank that was rapidly phased out of service or converted into open-topped tank destroyers and various auxiliary vehicles.
>>65488109>>65488169idk my bff jill
>>65488721>IFV means it fights infantryOkay you are just trolling.
>>65488721>IFV means it fights infantryOkay you are just trolling.>>65488826I think you are wasting good effort my man.
>>65488353>2 man crew better than 3 man crewImagine being this retarded. What happens when the tank gets hit and one crewman is killed? The Pz. I can either drive or shoot while the Type 95 can do both albeit with a slower reload time.
Pz 1 was designed to be a training tank. It was never supposed to see combat.
>>65488826If the Panzer I was obsolete, why does Germany still field a modern equivalent when it's ditched the vast majority of its other tank classes?
>>65489253If broomsticks are obsolete, why does Germany still field them instead of guns?
The only way the nazis could have won is if America was supplying them instead of the Allies.
>>65489275Summer 1940:>Germany captures >330,000 allied soldiers at Dunkirk>France is overrun and surrenders>Britain pressured into signing humiliating ceasefire/surrender to get their men back>Germany fully occupies Norway and Denmark, controls access to the Baltic sea>US and Soviet union still "neutral">Japan not yet at war with the US>US signs absurdly lucrative trade partnership to supply GermanyNot an outlandish scenario, one where Germany would have a good chance of winning a total war against the Soviets, when/if such a war occurred.
>>65489253>If the Panzer I was obsolete, why does Germany still field a modern equivalentWhat did he mean by this?
>>65489253Wrong.
>>65489627Krauts did replace the Panzer I with a tank purposefully designed to do its job without crumpling to an AP rifle round that served until the end of the war, and thought no one would notice if they labeled it Panzer I too.
>>65488235Nanking NascarRacing RapistKatana Banana
>>65489327Destroying Red Ziggeria was the whole reason for starting the war in the first place. Poland was just an obstacle on the way, while France got beaten because they declared war themselves over Poland. Without the invasion of USSR, WW2 isn't WW2.
And what if on Pacific front, things were flipped so that US gets Ke-Nu while Japan manages to build the Nu-Ke in 1945?
>>65489327>Britain pressured into signing humiliating ceasefire/surrender to get their men backChurchill was forced by his jewish masters to keep the war going. The only way to end Britain's involvement would be for Churchill to be killed.
>>65491796The Juden barely had any political power in Europe by 1940, it's why Germany was able to genocide them in the first place. There is no way Churchill would prioritize them over the entirety of the British Army if Dunkirk went a bust.
>>65491920>Jews barely had any political power>Which is how they mobilized two entire superpowers to attack a single European nation lmao
>>65488353>I am not sure what advantage OP thinks the Ha Go has over the Panzer Ia 37mm gun is a pretty big one
>>65488389>The Panzer 1 basically fit the role of an IFV in the eastern frontIt doesn't even qualify one, it's not a troop transport. It's just a light tank with machineguns.
>>65488175>Ha-Go>armor>deflectAnon...
>>65491928>Germany invades Poland >Germany invades the USSR>Germany declares war on the USSR>Fucking Jews making the whole world attack us n' shit
>>65492005>Poland keeps fucking around with the Germans in captured territory after WW1>In response for the USSR and Germany invading poland, the UK goads France into declaring war on Germany>Germany attacks France in a phoney war and UK tries invading through France too>Germany nom nom's France and notices USSR is going full 'lets communist the entire european continent lmao' and attacks them>Germany is somehow the bad guy
