When a problem comes along
You must whip it
Before the cream sits out too long
You must whip it
When something's going wrong
You must whip it

[@steelhammer96]

Where there's a whip, there's a way

[@M.M.83-U]

I will never understand why they choose to not use one of the large turrets already in service with the Lanchester and RollsRoyce armored cars.

[@1vantankist426]

great video, did noot expect the "it was a B..... to drive" but not complaining. always saw the whipped as the FT-17 before the FT-17.

[@GenJeFT]

I love that part as well, its just such a switch in tone it really highlights how much of an absolute bitch it really must have been to drive for it to deserve that type of call out.

[@teslashark]

Because dog! Though, the size

[@dawsonhealy4327]

Great new voiceover guy!

[@laurencemoore2105]

Listening to this in the background, all I could think was "I didn't know George Takei did voiceovers for this channel."
🤦🏻‍♂️

Nice video

[@christineshotton824]

Excellent article. Well done.👍

[@Marl-uo2xk]

I wonder why the turret was removed in favor of a casemate.

[@teodor9975]

concerns over weight and firepower. which sorta makes sense

[@TanksEncyclopediaYT]

Seems to be a cost-cutting measure and a deliberate simplification of the design for mass production.

[@anthonylewis679]

Whilst the 2 previous replies are very valid, i also think the the turret mounting section jutting out as it appears to do, severely restricted the drivers vision on that side of the vehicle.

[@teodor9975]

@@TanksEncyclopediaYT i would be inclined to agree. if it wasnt for the fact that most cost cutting would not be beneficial. considering if yer already spending a fair amount to make it, why not put the extra to make sure it works

[@teodor9975]

@@anthonylewis679 i see.

[@lahma69]

Why so few views on such a great video!?

[@ComfortsSpecter]

Ah, Finally
Some Good Entertainment
Great Vibe

[@AlexeyPiet]

"A Land-Battleship with forward firing guns [...]" in a time, when Battleships already gave up forward firing capabilities for broadsides in the distance... what a funny anachronism...

[@alhemicaribastovani9029]

Great video ❤❤

[@Dingus_Ubernova]

What a funny little afv

[@sebastianthomsen2225]

😎👍

[@escoltarevista4290]

Better if that tank retained the turret despite being expanded.
