After all, there is no time to reinvent the wheel during war. To desperately stay ahead, nations sometimes create whole departments of people to spy, infiltrate, and copy enemy advancements in technology. Perhaps even more absurd, being the first country to make progress in new technology seems to rarely balance the power favorably for long as every other country, enemy and ally alike, are soon sending spies and envoys to get their hands on it.

The Bob Semple tank is, Semply, impossible to copy. Who can withstand its wrath???
Too late.
Nice pun?
The technology behind the BOB Semple Tank were so advanced for their time and also today so it is impossible to create this tank ever again it was a one time creation

While the PLZ-05 does use components copied from the MSTA-S, it was actually designed to be in line with *western* SPGs. It has a rear mounted turret, very thin armor, and even fires NATO 155mm shells because they're so much easier to get than Soviet 152mm shells.
The chassis is also a multi-functional artillery chassis，instead of a tank chassis.
The Chinese PLZ 05 and the The export version, The PLZ-45 , both in 155mm were actually based on an unpgraded platform of the previous 152mm Type 83 Howitzer , which has been deeply influenced all-together by another soviet design ,The 2S3 Akatsiya . Msta-S was there in China for evaluation purpose ,given by Russia to China in order to successfully incorporate Gerald Bull's designed GC-45 155mm howitzer in 1980s. and mind you , The PLZ 45 came first in 1989 , followed by PLZ-05 in mid 1990s. Unlike the 2S19 Msta-S , which is semi-automated in a way similar to the 152mm SPGH DANA of the Czechoslovaks , The PLZ-45 is a fully manually loaded artillery, similar to the 2S3 Akatsiya , M109 Paladin and G-6 Howitzer . In fact it looks more like an upgunned and better version of M109 than the Americans ever had.
PLZ-05 is basically a mish-mash of design features from Russian 2S3, 2S19 and American M109, with the gun copied from Gerald Bull's GC-45. Interestingly, they kept the 155mm instead of using the Russian 152mm partly to expand their potential export customers and partly because their engineers couldn't adapt Bull's design from 155mm to 152mm without making a lot of changes they were too lazy to bother developing. One consequence of this is that China is stuck using a mixture of east-bloc and NATO artillery calibers, rather than standardizing on one design, an issue they had with their tanks but have finally overcome by standardizing around Russian 125mm guns for everything rather than the mix of Soviet 85mm, 100mm, and 125mm guns and NATO 105mm and 120mm guns that they had in the 80's and 90's. Presumably we'll see China standardize their artillery in the near future, rather than use a mix of Russian 122m, 130mm, and 152mm guns and NATO 105mm and 155mm guns. Both countries use a 203mm gun, but I doubt ammunition for either is compatible with the other, and except for North Korea and Iran I don't know of anyone still using 175mm or 185mm guns.
@@Swindle1984China actually obtained the license legally , in this case , from Gerald Bull industries , to make a local copy called the Type-89 155mm Towed Howitzer. Gerald Bull has sold his Howitzer and Designs to other rogue states of those time like South Africa, Libya Iran and Iraq. And GC-45 and it's modernised Versions and variants like GHN-45 , DENEL-G5,Type 89 and Kalyani Bharat-52 are some of my favorite Howitzers. It is cheap , but sturdy and accurate .
and It is my suggestion that this gun , if available in the arsenal of any NATO country , should be send to Ukraine .

The US didn't shamelessly steal the FT-17 from the French; they were allowed to produce it as a license-built near copy of Renault's design (in other words, they had permission).
And even then, they were still using FT-17s at the same time (which complemented however many M1917s the US produced).
One thing the US did steal shamelessly was Mauser's rifle design during the Hispanic-Cuban-American War. The rifle the US were using at the time was inferior to the Mauser the Spanish were using, so the US reverse engineered it and came with the 1903 Springfield rifle, which was a copy of Mauser. IIrc, there was a lawsuit from Mauser, and while the US got to keep the 1903 design they were forced to pay a considerable sum (both for the rights to produce it and as reparation).
Funny thing about the M1917, all the ones the US used in the war were French Renault FT-17's, not one single US made M1917 made it to France to fight, 2 arrived 9 days after the war ended and a further 8 showed up in December.
@@MegaRazorback Yeah, designing occured mostly after the war as the US tried to figure out how to build a proper tank of their own
@@onyxdragon1179 That did work out rather well for them in terms of tank experience gained from piloting/maintaining the 144 they were given to use. They took that experience and applied it to the tanks after WW1.
What stands out to me is the Russian Tupolev TU-4, just a copy of the B29 but with different engines
They even kept damage done to original b29
Soviet, not Russian.
Don't forget they replace 12.7mm defensive gun with 23mm
@@jakekaywell5972 so, just like 80% Russian
@@jakekaywell5972 same difference
The Germans developed the first practical interrupter system for the Fokker Eindecker , August Euler was the initial inventor, and Franz Schneider had developed a prototype a year before Saulnier unveiled his own design. It still wasn't reliable however, requiring the metal deflectors. Fokker might, or might not have, taken it and improved it for his own plane. Germany already had its own machinegun synchronization system in development at that time.
Just looking for this comment, you didn't let me down
Thank you. Another issue he failed to mention was the unpredictable trajectories of the bullets deflected by Garros's system.
Here's a related item you may not have run across - the Spad S.A-2, possibly the worst solution to the forward facing machine gun problem by installing (in order) gun, gunner, prop, engine, and pilot.

The funny thing about the M1917 is that it was a license built make, and anything built from a license will always be extremely similar to what it was licensed from, so it's not exactly a shameless copy. The Huskie too isn't exactly a shameless copy either, as it just uses a similar rotor system. Besides, the maker of the system worked on the darned thing so it's even less so. The PLZ-05 and Type 726 have too little information on them since they're Chinese, but as far as I could tell the only remote similarity to their respective copies is that the PLZ potentially uses the same loading mechanism as the Msta, and the 726 uses gas turbine engines like the LCAC-55. I will say that the four of them do look strikingly similar, but that'd be like comparing the GM J Bodies from the 80's to each other. The Eindecker's original unarmed scout plane model was based on the Morane-Saulnier, and so was the synchronization gear, so I would call it the same way I called the Chinese models.
Another copy strange
A better example would be the Soviet T-55 and the Chinese Type 59 tank
@@DarkPsychoMessiah except Type 59 was license copy of T-54A

I'm not sure whether it's true or not, but I had once read that while Americans did take the blueprints from the French to make a licensed copy or the renault FT, but they weren't able to make it on time and in the end had a few differences. The reason was that the French blueprints were in metric system which confused the Americans.
Simple history is now using their animation skills on the small things they say now, I like it.

This is an interesting comment section
The Americans in Wartime Museum outside of Washington DC has a 1917 tank. I remember when they got the tank 22 years ago, from a junk yard in Georgia. I'm not making that up. She was only missing her duck tail. About 5 years ago they took her completely apart and rebuilt her. She's fully restored and operational, the oldest piece in their vehicle collection. If anyone has a chance to see it I recommend visiting the place.

In China, reverse engineering US technology has a colloquial academic term called “hold onto the eagle when you trying to cross the river”.
i think the first one of the list is just reaching because the PLZ-05 has pretty much no parts interchangeability with the MSTA-S and the semi automatic loader is used on a lot of different SPG's of similar performance. It has a different hull, turret, gun, engine layout and the engine and transmission itself is so radically changed its pretty much its own design. Even him saying they look similar is pretty dubious.
He should have gone with the Tu-4/B-29 instead.
totally, it's more like a clickbait, there is so many sino-hater now so this gives them more upvotes lol
@@Raymond-ck6ms yes
You skipped one of the most infamous copies of all time: the Soviet's Tupolev Tu-4 "Bull" was copied from the American's Boeing B-29 Superfortress.
We also took inspiration of our ballistic missiles from Russia, but ours is very pointy not round
who revived you?
@@ezekiyam3827 clutched the Gulag with Lizzie
Well when it comes to the FT-17 almost every industrialized nation during and after WW1 made their own variant of that tank. It was state of the art technology back then, and it would be a mistake not to learn from its design.
Many of them liscened officially from Renault might I add
@@WynnofThule well said, plus in 1917 France needed as many tanks on the front as possible which is why they gave the US a liscence so early
In all fairness, I think the FT-17 is the most copied and improved on tank in history. As to the Huskey you went from "copied" to "stealing technology" so it really shouldn't have been included in this compilation.
I AM THE BEEST YOUUTUBER YOU'RE ALL TRAASH COMPARED TO ME IM THE BEEST 😯😯😯😯😯😯😯😯😯😯
Same with the M1917. It was literally a slightly changed FT-17 built under license, not stolen.
I just don't know why simple history chose them when the 1903 Springfield was such a copy of the Mauser the US had to pay royalties on it after losing a court battle.

Kind of a shame that the TU-4 didn’t get a mention since it was just a copy of the B-29 superfortress and the fact that the Soviets went to the effort of building their copy to the same imperial measurements as the B-29, even making the tools for it
A: US has never used Imperial. Imperial measurements are different from US standards.
B: They didn't use Inch standards. The skin on the Tu-4 was thicker due to Standard vs Metric, which gave the Tu-4 less range and lower speed than the B-29.
Funny how the thumbnail shows a mad American Soldier on top of a Soviet Built SPG even though America uses the M109 not the Msta-S.
No mention of the Tupolev Tu-4? That was a Soviet reverse-enegineer and copy of the US B-29 bomber, copied from B-29s that forced landed in USSR territory. Had a few differences, using Metric instead of Imperial units for hardware and sheet metal thickness, some slightly different electrical equipment, and different engines, but looked identical.
The video would be too to have all the missing vehicles
They do say "Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery." An idea not shared by copyrights or manufactures, but it does stand the test of time.
Hi Simple History !! Love your videos. Can you make a video about the unusual modern firearm designs such as FMG9, Keltec P50 smg, AR-57, XM8, etc ? It would be great if you can make one. Thanks if you noticed this comment 👍
The plz-05 isn’t much of a copy and it’s like calling the American paladin artillery a copy of mista because they both serve the same purpose and are not copies of each other
The Hanomag SDKFZ - 251 was copied by the Czechs called OT-810. The BMW was under the Russians EMW and the Opel Kadett became postwar a Moskovitch. Nice to use in WW2 war movies.

@@Yourlocalhuman8 Captured b17s that the soviets basically stole from the american crews when they had to emergency land in soviet territory

Don’t blame them, they found their way of developing technology wile studying others and making their own stuff, it worked out well
this could be a nice series, a bit surprised we didnt see the soviet copy of the B29, the TU4
Unlike the Chinese vehicles listed here, the M1917 tank was produced under license, meaning they had permission to build them. "Stolen" implies the base design and construction were undertaken without permission of the company who originally built it.

The PLZ-05 is NOT a copy of the 2S19. It only incorporates a few copied technologies but is otherwise very different to the 2S19.
While the single wing design of the Fokker Eindecker was inspired by the french Saulnier H., the interruptor/Synchronisation Gear was NOT copied from the french. The french used deflector plates on the propeller. Fokker used the Schneider Syncrhonisation Gear (Patented 1913 in Germany).
The french choice with deflector plates was not feasable for the german 7.9mm Mauser Cartridge, as they had too much penetration capability for the use of deflector plates (the french lebel 8x50mm R Cartridge was very low powered and had soft tipped roundet bullets)
The 726A LCAC is INSPIRED not Copied from the US LCAC. It is substantially bigger.
In the same way you could say the US copied the LCAC from the sovjets with their Aist Class LCAC or Gus Class LCAC or Tsaplya Class LCAC (all significantly earlier developed and in service than the US LCAC)
Yes the sovjets were for most of the time of the cold war on the edge of technological advancement, often ahead of NATO.
FT-17 was a legal license production.
Please do a video on the battle of Delville wood. As a South African it would be truly amazing to see our troops remembered on this channel.

The machine gun synchronizing gear of WW1: Saulnier was not the first to invent it. The very first one was patented by Franz Schneider, a Swiss who was working for a German aircraft company. He never actually built one. It's unknown whether his patent had anything to do with the other's designs, but they would probably have been aware of it. Because of the patent, they'd most likely have taken the concept and tried to design their own mechanisms.
Saulnier designed one and tested it, but it was a failure. He wasn't able to solve the problems with his design before he had to return the machine gun, which he had borrowed from the French army. That was when he decided to just deflect bullets that struck the propeller instead, and that was the system installed on Garros' airplane.
Fokker got the propeller, and that inspired him to take a crack at the synchronization problem. He was the first to design a gear that was successful and reliable. He didn't copy Saulnier's system; Saulnier had given up on his design and never installed it on Garros' airplane. Garros just used the deflection plates on his propeller.
The M1917 Light Tank: was not copying, shameless or otherwise. It was fully authorized by the Allies because French industry was overburdened by production of tanks for France's own use. It was decided that the USA would produce FT tanks for the US army, and France sent the plans to the USA, where they were modified to American requirements.
Flettner: You can't say the USA copied Flettner's helicopter when they hired him to design and build for them.
But if you want a shameless copy, then look no further than the Russian TU-4. When an American B-29 made an emergency landing in Russia during WW2, they gleefully tore it down and copied it rivet for rivet.
Ah yes the famous American MSTA-S
How could you miss the Tupolev TU4 copy of the B-29 that Stalin insisted be exact so the first one had patch panels for battle damage repairs in the same place and a copy of the camera one of the crew had hanging in the cockpit.

@@Nikola95inYT Something else Tupolev took away from the B-29, B-29's had the Boeing name in a totem pole and B-29 next to it on the control yoke center cap. Military as well as civilian Tupolev aircraft from the TU-4 on had a stylized Ty in the cap till the yoke design no longer had a cap.

A self-propelled gun is not a tank. It is an artillery piece with caterpillar tracks. It is not intended to be used as a direct fire weapon, although that occasionally happens.

The US landing craft is a hovercraft, something originally perfected by the British engineer Christopher Cockerel and his team who developed the first properly working version.
On the landing crafts the Russians have a very similar design to the American ones too so the Chinese are not the only ones “copying”
The Soviet Buran Spacecraft look externally similar to the US Challenger, but it shares almost none of the similarity internally, it was a self drive computer spacecraft, its first flight and landing did without a single human on board. it can be said for its time, it is more advanced than even the Challenger spacecraft.

Capt Eric Brown missed out on being the first man to break the sound barrier in controlled flight whilst far worse were the number of allied pilots shot down by North Korean/Soviet aircraft powered by copies of the Nene turbojet during the Korean War.

Next joke
Bh
The M1917 was build under license, not stolen. That means that the French were paid for each tank the US built. This is exactly the opposite of stealing.
Counter video idea: great combat video copies
Funny how China pretty much stole the flanker series but made it better than current russian models
@Just Some Crappy Animations yes? Better. You have counter proof?
@Just Some Crappy Animations of course not but on paper they are better. The avionics are more modern, the armaments are better, and they are of course newer( less stress on the airframe)
@Just Some Crappy Animations welp multiple su35s have been lost in ukraine so 😅
@Just Some Crappy Animations a dated plane at the time, and a lucky shot as qouted by the person who shot it down.
Vs the su35, tons lost and very much a modern aircraft. Lol
@Just Some Crappy Animations so many? You mean a few of the 100s made? OK and?
Soviets: Producing Msta-s*
Chinese : Can I have one of them?
Soviets : Invented Tank Autoloader
Chinese: Can I have one ?
Soviets : Coppied US Aim-9b and renamed R-3S
Chinese : Can I still have another one pls.
Chinese : Stronks!
2s19 uses 152mm/L47 guns; max firing range 25-36km depending on rounds.
PLZ05 uses 155MM/L52 guns; range 20-100km depending on rounds.
The two use different chasis, suspension, engine, fire control and auto-reloader.The PLZ05 generally outperforms the 2s19 in every regard.
How the F did you come to the copy cat conclusion? They both have guns, turrets and tracks?
Do an entire episode about operation paper clip please!!
You forgot the B-29 -> Tu-4 bomber. The UAV.
