How to Fight: The T-62 Tank Capabilities and Countermeasures.
The T-62 Russian Tank was a formidable adversary against the Western Allies during the Cold War. It had great fire power and mobility, and was a lethal threat in large numbers. It was one of the main battle tanks during the Cold War era in which it was soon replaced by the T-72 Tank.
Despite being a formidable opponent to the Western Allies, there were vulnerabilities to the tank that can be exploited to ones advantage. This US Army training video that was made during the mid to late 1970s demonstrates the tanks strengths and weaknesses.
Know your enemy's weaknesses to utilize it for your advantage and success.

i'd like to see the Soviet version on how to defeat the M60 lol
"Move forward until your dead comrades create a human roadblock to stop their Capitalist machines."
lol, yeah those would be funny, but there were none, the soviet rookie top brass probably was not that delusional to have something like that ever put together because they knew it wouldn't have happened, meaning the total defeat of the opposing tank.
CHUUMPASS so they wouldnt train or release information on the strengths and weaknesses of enemy tanks and how the enemy might use them?
This shows USA ware always and aggressor nation. They must be destroyed
Ghost Erik It’s the same reason why sports teams watch footage of the opposing team’s previous games. It’s meant as a means of study. Be it sports or war, you ALWAYS want to know the capabilities of who you face. It could even be off-season. If confrontation is suspected it’s better to be prepared than not. Just because any given military has these kinds of videos doesn’t necessarily mean they’re going on the attack; correlation isn’t causation. Try harder with calling out the US, child.
Russia: We don't want our guns to be depressed, we want our guns to be happy!

I guess it was a part of the big operation to make everything in the Soviet Army seem happy, so the soldiers won't be depressed going into a nuclear holocaust.

Nice logical theory...but in practice, first you have to come close to the factory,and that's where your theory becomes a lucid dream only.

@@pacificstatesofamerica I mean this video is like +40-50 years old
@@pacificstatesofamerica Yes, you have them now, but you didn't have them in that period when those tanks were manufactured. One more thing, we are talking about USA and Soviet/Russia as opposing sides, and every mistake any of them would make, even the slightest one, would lead toward start of WW3. It's still a lucid dream in my opinion,and I truly hope that none of both sides have a dream like that at all.
John F. Kennedy Ah understood. I thought it was a general statement about the US vs. Russia. In that case I guess they just nuke the whole plant, I can’t imagine the Cold War going hot without getting nukes involved, kinda like asking how the Soviets would get rid of Lockheed or Boeing plants without stealth bombers or nukes.
Love this tank. It's like an elite T-55 made leaner, meaner and generally more tacti-cool.

3:45 and Soviet Cold War tanks were designed to fight a war in the European Plain, in a hull down position on flat terrain the gun depression isn't a problem.
+SkullKing11841
You don't know the north german terrain really well :-P
RoninTF2011
Oh damn, it was a typo when I said "Northern", I meant just European Plain. I'll edit it.
What do you mean exactly? There can still be hills on a plain.
+SkullKing11841
Just saying that terrain in central europe (germany for that matter, as there would have been a, or even the, main frontline) has really plenty of hills and slopes. A good gun depression helps a lot when trying to maintain a hull down position and still be able to engage. If you tanks can't bring its gun down very far...you have to expose yourself more. My reference to north germany in that regard(sry, didn't make that clear)was because that, and "Fulda gap" where the 2 main routes where a quick deployment of armour would have been an option.
RoninTF2011 I know, the Soviet requirement was that the tanks be low because most of the terrain they would be fighting on is mostly flat and has small rises in the ground so being low makes you a smaller target and opens cover up to you were a taller tank would have it's turret exposed, there is always a trade off.
No one fights a modern war with Armor on a flat open plain... They'd be wiped out easily.

In Texas, if you have enough money, you can order from Eastern Europe a T62 or T54/55 tank. And if you are passionate about heavy weapons, then Soviet tanks are always very valuable collectibles, even, it is an effective self-defense weapon to protect the family. Believe me, Texas players can recover old Soviet tanks they bought from Eastern Europe, and use them well, because they are so easy to use.

Lol just commented about that. Then saw this comment
Damn, I didn’t know that tanks many decades ago were that capable.
I was surprised that the T-62 was watertight:0
my grandpa was a T-54B driver. It was watertight as well, they crossed rivers several times underwater during his draft service
@u bakaThe earlier ones could, but later models couldn't.
Older tanks were still very capable machines as engineers and armor designers around the world did their jobs exceedingly well. We just have much more powerful and capable machines these days due to the frankly insane rate at which tank technology advanced during the Cold War, doesn't make the old tanks useless even if they're obsolete just not effective against modern armor and anti-armor weapons. Essentially if you're a low tech country that needs armor support you'll take whatever you can get and most functional tanks on the market will serve their purpose regardless if they're obsolete. As a wise man once said "a bad tank is better than no tank at all".
In a modern context if properly modernized the T-62 would be a capable killer of older tanks (like variants of itself or Chieftains, M60s, Leopard 1s, and older tanks) and more lightly armored vehicles out to serious ranges, possibly greater than 1.5km (which while unimpressive for modern standards is still very useful if you don't have better vehicles).
Against modern armor it's unfortunately hopeless from a frontal aspect as modern armor is designed to withstand much more potent threats than the 115mm could ever hope to be and their guns will tear the T-62 apart. Modern NATO tanks being armored to stop the common Russian 125mm and the modern Russian tanks being armored to resist the common NATO 120mm. It can be argued how well these tanks do so as we have little information on modern Russian armor performance against NATO 120mm ammunition save for old Iraqi T-72s which were demolished with ease at ranges out to 2.5km on average and even out to 4.5km at most during the Gulf War. The Abrams and Challenger 2 also proved to be immune to older 125mm ammunition at short range during the Gulf War but ammunition has advanced both severely and rapidly since then on both sides.
They had to be gas tight.
Old tanks are very impressive, even still the M103 still delivers the most kinetic energy to its target than any other tank. This is of course because tanks do not fire giant projectiles now but still cool.
Still useful today.
Not too useful. It’s pretty obsolete being basically an enlarged T-54/55 with an alright gun. Russia is still using them for some reason though.
People blast T-62 low gun depression but the upside is a much smaller, closer the ground turret. If you think about it, the advantage gained by a lower-profile tank in all terrain far outweighs the disadvantage of a lower gun depression only when the tank is uphill facing downhill.
Yep, like in World of Tanks.
tank size rarely matter unless you're in close promity where an inch will make a difference of hitting or grazing. but in longer range skirmishes, which is the more probable scenario, that that extra few inches in turret size will not matter at all because if the enemy misses you, it's going to be by a few hundred feets. and if he hits you, it's not because of your tank's smaller size. not only that, turret height will not matter because shots will be coming towards you at an angle due to trajectory, so it will hit your tank whether you have a short or tall turret.
Except all of those advantages are completely erased by the lack of gun depression. The T-62 and all follow on Soviet MBTs actually have to expose a far greater portion of the tank than any of its western counterparts. This means that an attacking T-62 (or any other Soviet MBT) will be exposed for a far greater period of time before it can get its gun on target.
Israelis destroyed so many T-62 becuse these machines exposed more what stand on the top of the hill than Centurion, M-48 and M-60 s
It's a matter of doctrine and geography Russia will fight on the open European plains if they ever deploy tanks, while america has to worry about defending both it's European and Asian allies thus needs a more versatile tank that can fight in the hills of Korea, the forests of SEA and the plains of Europe, neither design is stupid or bad just made for different situations. The Russian T series tanks will perform much better in open fields while the american tanks can be effective in more types of terrain

@@Chinunit22 I'm sorry what....
That intro gave me flash backs of sitting in the living room at my grandparents house watching these shows with my grandpa
Bet the Ukrainians are watching this now that the Russians are bringing these 60 year old antiques into the battle.
man the review is quite accurated on T-62 "weak spots" on the firing rate and others...
But on the last part... optimism was at its peak... i mean a freaking 10.000 T-62+T-55 were to be expected while something in the order of 1000 T-10+T-64 would follow
And after that initial barrage, another 10.000 + 1.000 would come, and then a 3rd wave and so...
So now that we know that the entire Russian military would have been cut apart by even the forces we already had in not Europe but just the border with the USSR at the time how do you feel?
I mean to be fair who would have thought that it wasn't optimism but the pure cold knowledge that they knew the Soviet forces didn't really stand a sliver of a chance against the NATO alliance, I mean don't get me wrong I'm not judging you it's just that I'm surprised it took until the war in Ukraine for us all to realize just how shit Russian equipment is, seriously tip of the spear T-80BVMs, T-72B3s and T-90s are getting absolutely shat on by not only modern ATGMs but even Legacy M72 LAWS and RPG-7s not to mention the countless vehicles that have been burned to a crisp by nothing more than Molotov cocktails.
Can you imagine if the Russians had actually tried to break through the prepared defenses of the NATO alliance and had nothing better than T-62s!? Like Jesus the poor bastards would have gotten shattered like glass as soon as the TOW missiles started flying, not to mention the sheer absurdity of trying to supply the fuel and food necessary to keep over 10,000 tanks running while relaying on the entirely ineffective Soviet and Russian supply lines, on God bro! It would have been the definition of a one sided stomping by NATO even worse than the Gulf war, like legit bro it would have been such a one-sided fight it would have made saddam's generals look like fucking geniuses for lasting as long as they did.
@@anarchyandempires5452
Modern day Russia is not USSR, ( and when looking at USSR, it also depends on which era)
In the timeframe when USSR did not have anything better than the T62. Nato would not have had Tows yet . Thier best tanks would of been the likes of the M60 for the US, leopard 1 for Germany, and the Uk with thier Centurions. ( and maybe some Chieftains thrown in for the UK if we are talking late 60s, when they were just entering service)
Again its this sort of hubris that had nazi germany loose against USSR. thought they would be inept ill supplied pushovers. Turned out once upon a time Quantity was still abel to best quality.
Optimism was at its peak? Its the army. See what strategies Germany had in 1918 or 1944. Optimism goes beyond being retarded.

@@muasibasl4796 lol the Challenger is just and "upgraded" mk 4 tank.
@@ullrichhoffmann882 That is similar to saying that the T62 is only an upgrade of the T44
we egyptians used it in 73 war aganst m60 and the celinterion its great in attacking but when it comes to defend it's not that great we used anti tank missiles aganst israeli couter attack
Centurion not the celinterion
@Carnivorus The T-62 can defend but honestly in the area like the middle east where it may be hilly more often than between Germany to Russia, it would kind of fail since the M60 and Centurion had great gun depression so those two tanks could easily poke over and only show the strong-ish turrets and easily shoot down, or how the T-62 is more limited in the spots they defend. Though the only reason why the T-62 may be good in attack is just wave tactics, and of course you choose where you attack. Russian's were heavily influenced by WWII and adopted a lot of weapons to match that doctrine. T-62 was relatively cheaper than the other tanks. Crew comfort was a less of a priority.
All in all the T-62 is capable but is designed for cheaper use. It can attack and defend and really depends on the commanders. Egypt however during this period, I never studied them, but as most middle eastern armies, commanders are not the best always and they tend to rely on more basic tactics. Though some do break that idea, I am talking majority.
It has crappy gun depression. But it has stabilization and fires very flat trajectory apfsds.
@@box8524 Arab commanders are not used to think for themselves. Initiative is not encouraged. It's all about hierarchy.

Plank Hill true. It must be so horrible inside a tank that is being penetrated with armourpircing wepons.
True - I just like the T-62 thats all.
Yes but they are highly manneurable, hard to break down, have good guns and are easier to hide. When western tank are comperred to soviet, there are often comparred to tanks that are 20 or more years older. If you would be fair - you should compare the T-62 with the M-48 and not the M-60.

Even when germans were on the defensive in ww2 they often used counterattacks. Tanks is a offensive weapon. On defense you can use atgms and towed guns.
Yeah, a towed gun is nearly as effective as a tank from a defensive position. And is much cheaper in every regard.
tanks are better for delay and retreat style defenses
@@Graymenn not entirely true. As I mentioned; towed guns are much cheaper. Tanks are only useful where your retreat would be dynamic, but retreat in a tank is slower than advance in a tank. So you expose yourself by retreating, and this is before we factor in the enormous issues with facing artillery, and other combined arms.
Tanks in defence were used to advance. To relieve pressure on the line.

While both where in production they where far from fully replaced in all units.
There's a separate film for the T-64 and T-72. It's on youtube but quality is low.

Interesting historical piece
Of course this video shows that US has best tactics - otherwise they would not use them. That applies to every nation, which means in reality some things in this video may not work well in RL.
Like for example during WW2 American training videos tough their soldiers how MG42 wastes ammo and is not as accurate. In reality, that did not matter.
In reality MG42 kills alot of US troop LOL and ammo are well spent :)
@TheRomanRuler "Of course this video shows that US has best tactics"
Well, Russia's tactics back then were pretty much like described in this video. It was all about numbers and overwhelming the enemy because they had a far larger military that could afford to do that. Also, in real life they planned to use more tanks than is shown in this video. Western tactics were all about avoiding taking casualties while trying to slow down the enemy advance. Now, you might still be thinking that simply rushing the enemy is stupid, but then take in account that part of Russia's strategy was to use thousands of tactical nukes to destroy/suppress enemy concentrations (on top of using strategic nukes for strategic targets). The Russians in their plans thought NATO too would make wide use of nukes. In which case, we don't really know how things would've went. It would've been one giant clusterfuck.
Another army classic from 19🥔!! I love it!!!!
For an army video it is surprisingly pretty unbiased
Its got to run a fine line of giving the soldiers real information, but still being positive

In 1994 Russian commanders tried to blitzkrieg-attack Grozny with army of T-72's, ending with at least 40 destroyed tanks within first several hours of the battle. Chechens went to USSR army, knew these tanks and their weaknesses. Tanks were destroyed using RPGs.

The video says T-62 can only fire 4 rounds a minute and cannot move the turret while reloading, the T62-A has only sight upgrades over the former. Now compare this information with what Russian tanks are in WoT.
I like how the narrator agreed that the tank is good but it has its flaws.
Also I think the T-62 would be better if they removed that shell ejector, sealed the ejector hatch, and placed the ammunition is a little safer place...also tank skirts.

+Joshua Chita most were tough by classroom settings indeed, usually by a officer or political commissar. however some films were made, but they are very rare indeed
They would've been stupid to show propaganda, these videos are not made to strenghten your nationalist feelings but to provide valuable information about the enemy's combat capabilities
Like that: this is enemy tank if you dont hit you go gulag. The end
@Your Muslim Brother you have a different opinion? I've seen some evidence to back up every single answer presented
PLEASE : everybody go right to 17:05 and look at the amazing Stop-motion Models they used for this!!!! I'm here watching them again :) They come back at 20:05
i am here because of the news
with this tank coming to warthunder along side the m60a1 this video needs more views from the American tank community
it is indeed. though Steel Armor: Blaze of War serves these tanks (t62 and M60a1) true justice, a real sim with fully modeled interiors
+K “Kev2go” Cz never played steel armor, thanks for the recommendation I will definitely check it out!
lol just shoot the front armor and boom the tank explode just like the T54 xD
I actually posted a link to this video on War Thunder's Facebook page in reply to their post announcing the launch of v1.61. Hopefully that will generate more attention to it and prove useful to players encountering this tank in the game.

it may but i dont think it wont. Gajin doesnt simulate the exact chatercists of the T62. IE the gunner can track targets through his sight during reload, gun doesnt elevate, and the turret is movable during reload. so it doesnt have any of the flaws a real t62 would have save for a longer reload rate.
. Now i dont think its in any way OP, but because of this its just better in game that it was IRL or how its represented in a Sim like Steel Armor blaze of war, therefore a m60 tanker would be able to exploit these, which he can in WT due to how the T62 was implemented.
even from an aesthetics perspective, you dont see the T62s back turret door open and eject spent cases, which is a bit disappointing.
Alright now we need a training video on how to take out a T-14 Armata.
There's probably already one, but heavily classified for sure
DEADPOOL FR no I don’t think there is but I’m sure there is a video oh how to destroy m1a2 Abrams
M1A2 for sure tho, T14 might not have been studied enough you're right
Put it in a parade, that seemed to take it out
Drop a JDAM on the garage it is being stored in between parades. The T-14 will never see combat much less be fielded outside parade units.
the frontal armour are thicker and have better shape than t55..the gun is slightly larger at 115mm..and the automatic ejector is a nice feature..but not to be overlooked the 10inch steel armour on the turret front cannot stop rpg 7 penetrator...let alone the likes of MILAN..KORNET..DRAGON..and the like.I do like it...but i certainly will not use it....
Awesome. I love these kind of videos and information
awesome video mate! very informative. It's more like a t62 brochure
Strong turret armor, high rate of fire, never let it go hull down on you.
High rate of fire? The thing could fire a maximum of 4 rounds a minute.
+abacs21 op plays too much world of tanks that's why he thinks it has a high rate of fire
Richard Turner
Because the one in Wot is the T-62A with a 100mm gun, the 115mm U-5TS had significantly worse RoF
abacs21 the U8TS, which was the 100mm gun was not that fast firing either. Fuck that game too its so unrealistic

T-62 is OP in Squad. I have killed so many Challenger 2s that it is a specialty of mine.
*how to destroy a T62 tank
Most of the tank crew in the world : *laughing in their mbt's
It can penetrate anything on battlefield and it's accurate on move... M60 tanker watching thing; run until they run out of fuel 🤪.
T64/T72 video is even more hilarious; they are fast and impenetrable by anything what we have. To kill T72 you must wait until he is pointing upwards while crossing some tranch and shoot lower plate. M60 tanker must be like; are fucking kidding me 🤪
Tako je,u pravu si,ali znas koliko su ameri iskompleksirani...njihovo je sve vrh top,i bolje od neprijateljskog. Smesni su sa takvom pricom generalno,ali svrha te price je donekle i dizanje morala sopstvenoj vojsci,ali se isti vrlo brzo pri prvom susretu sa ovim i ovakvim protivnikom rasprsi. Dizanje morala lazima, i u ofanzivnoj ulozi,protiv istine, i iskrene patriotske defanzive sa druge strane...nece da bude tako lako kao u ovim trenaznim snimcima. Svako dobro Dragane.
Can u post the link to that vid?

Ivan is like:" What is gun depression Dimitry ? " Yep soviet tanks in a nutshell XD
Gun has no depression? means gun is always happy!
Now we need how to kill the T80, T90, and T 14
Ukrainians killed so many T-80s and T-72s the T-62 is coming back online.
05:36 ohh man the "snorkel"
Chad Monochrome GIs vs Virgin Marpat Toy Soldiers
Welp, looks like the T-62 is back in action... 60 years later lmfao
Some of these animations are stop motion. Nice.
Ooh great, a new A-Team movie
The last part is badly flawed - in the 70's the 3rd Shock Army of GSFG would have fielded something like 6 tanks to every NATO one whilst the armoured advance was to be preceded and accompanied by Mi-24's under blanket air cover.
The assessment on a 1 on 1 engagement is accurate. But for a major action - no. It wouldn't be the turkey shoot predicted. The Russians would have sustained heavy losses - but as history has shown us - they can do this. To quote uncle Joe "quantity has a quality all of its own".
That does not mean that they can do it for an infinite time. The US gunnery field manual from 1978 mentioned that they expected a 1 o 5 ratio when fighting Soviet armor, and the tactics were designed and thought to overcome that. I guess it's convenient that in 2023, I don't need much more work to prove this point by pointing you at Russian's ineffective use of artillery and tanks under the Soviet doctrine in Ukraine.
The Arabs had even better force ratios in '73, yet failed. It was, in fact, largely a turkey shoot. CAP/OCA/fighter sweeps as well as antitank helicopters also existed in NATO. And all tank engagements are, individually, 1 on 1 duels.
Still get more out of these videos, than you ever will a power point presentation.
5:45, this tank can produce smoke to hide. Imagine a line of tanks all emitting smoke? america Dragon and TOW operators would be screaming in anger as their targets were obscured. By the time the soviet tanks became visible again through the smoke, they might be too close for missile fire.
Perhaps any smoke-emitting tanks then become a priority target, more so than even the command tank.
The trouble is the smoke is for retreating and shouldnt be used much. It sprays diesel directly on the exhaust which if used too much can cause a fire. But also the smoke is emmitted behind the tank do to advance the tank emmitting smoke would still be visible and probably more visible as he silhouettes himself.behind white smoke.
They would probably use artillery smoke shells to cover they advance.
@@TwixSvK you mean "their" advance. You sounded like a black guy talking lolol they often use "they" incorrectly
@@decimated550 Yes
What I got from the video
It takes everything we’ve got to take out the T-62
I love how he proudly reads how American tank is 3ft taller then soviet, as it was some good thing! : ) 2:30
Well, in a sense it is. The small sizes of russian tanks or turrets have various disadvantages, some are mentiined in the vid.
I Love Analytical Reports/Training Films on Enemy Equipment like this. They were Respectful to the T-62 Inspite of what Pro-Russia Zelots might think. The 70's porno music was a nice touch 😂.
Keep in mind that during this video was made, the Soviets already had thousands of T-64s in service for the Red Army.
