I know this is a common joke. But the Maus wasn't always meant to be called that: "to be ready in 1943 was initially to receive the name Mammut ('mammoth'). This was reportedly changed to Mäuschen ('little mouse') in December 1942 and finally to Maus ('mouse') in February 1943, which became the most common name for this tank." which I heard was because of operational security but I haven't found anyone writing that.
You didn’t slope back the lower plate. That’s where they were shooting you as well. It’s no good if it’s super flat. Other then that it’s actually a pretty good rendition Edit: if I’m not mistaken it’s like a 35 degree slope
@@FranticMatty no no, it’s okay. Just letting you know what was POSSIBLY going wrong. Idk how pen you have on those Tigers so it probably didn’t matter any ways :P
I feel like saying that the Maus was used by the German military in ww2 is overstating it’s actual service record. That being, two were constructed and then almost immediately destroyed and then the soviets managed to put together the (mostly) intact turret from one destroyed Maus on the (mostly) intact hull of another destroyed Maus. They dragged back to Kublinka (I dunno how to spell the place) and it’s been sitting there ever since.

He should actually wait before trying to make a T28/T95 Super Heavy Tank/Gun Motor Carriage (the actual classification for the thing was never tank destroyer, but it did bounce between both SHT and GMC.) The dev has put on his road map for updates that double tracks are slated for later on in the year. So he can kind of build one now or wait until that update is launched and then build a proper one.
what you got is decently accurate but it weighed 188 metric ton so 210 US ton, the upper and lower front plates were both 230mm thick, hull sides 185mm, hull rear 160mm, turret front 280mm, turret sides and turret rear 210mm, roof and belly was 80mm. it had around 1,950 Horsepower top speed was around 20-25 kph and had 2 machine guns a MG-42 next to the main gun and a 15mm MG-151 AA gun. loved watching this
isn’t the turret frontal suppose to be 260mm? roof and belly 55/65 Both front lower and upper plates are 200mm. the rest is correct. And no, it only has one machine gun port. I think🤔
@@bluebucketdude8909 Sources vary i don't think a whole lot of info survived and what you say is true for the version in world of tanks but wargaming has a habit of not really being historically accurate in my experience and either nerfing or buffing a vehicle and they nerfed the Maus at leas twice cause people complained it was too tuff
Hey Frantic, I would love to see you try to make your interpretation of the 'Mammoth tank' from the Command and Conquer series, or the 'Scorpion' from the Halo series of games.
*to make turret rotation speed faster you can just place a tiny turret down and make it smaller and then put the bigger turret on the tiny turret and then make sure you add a commanders coupla*
The fact that you forgot to un check the hand crank option while messing with the turret made me cry. Imagine turning that turret with your bear hands 😆
So to "correct" you on the history, this wasn't necessarily fielded by the Germans during WWII simply because they only got 1.5 of them built; 2 hulls and 1 turret. So between the strained manufacturing and nearly nil resources they managed to build that many and then the factory manufacturing the things was attacked and destroyed. So it wasn't "successfully fielded" by strict definition. It was in production though when the factory was destroyed, so if that hadn't of happened, the Maus could have seen the battlefield. Also, I think you should add Ferdinand Porsche's "brilliant" anti-air idea to the Maus. He offered to mount an 88mm gun to the back of the Maus' turret pointed straight up to get any aircraft that just happened to be flying perfectly over the thing. . . . . The UK had Hobart, the US had McNair, Germany had Porsche.
0:28 the maus was never really used by the Germans and was never sent into combat although two working prototypes existed they were never deemed fit for combat.
The Maus was never actually used, only 2 prototypes was completed or at least one partial and the other fully completed and only one exists today which is the Hull of the first and the turret if the other
The hull and most of the turret look excellent! The turret front doesn't quite match any historical designs, but this is a game haha. The E-100 I made was easier since the turret is flat :D
The maus wasn't actually used it was just a project and only 2 prototypes were made 1 with a turret and the other with just the Chasey the only way we know about porche "maus" is because the Soviets found 1 of the prototypes destroyed (in the downfall of nazi germany they destroyed the prototypes so that the Soviets won't be able to rebuild it) but the one without the turret wasn't found as I remember They found the turret and the Chasey and learned how it was supposed to look after that they rebuilded the maus and put it in the museum of moskva (Moscow in russian)
U created a new maus should be called Le elefant or Rhino or maus V2 sum to do with behemoth animals cuz u know moustache man loves naming tanks as strong animals
Fun fact: we called it ze maus to distrakt and konfuse ze kommunistische piepels So yeah the joke aside, that is the real reason why the huge tanks have the name Maus and Ratte. To confuse the enemy
What do you guys think of my outfit?
Its ok
10/10 fashion
Do what is necessary
Its nice :)
It OK >:}
Germany:
Maus: big super heavy
Ratte: land battleship
Goliath: tiny tracked
mine
Germany: Who says Germany doesn’t have a sense of humour
The last time the Germans had a sense of humor the allies had to save france

You should make a T-95 Tank Destroyer or a T-35 Soviet Landship!

Hmm. understood
I mean, I looked up blueprints and stuff, so, maybe some of them are inaccurate too
Hey Frantic, I would love to see you try to make your interpretation of the 'Mammoth tank' from the Command and Conquer series, or the 'Scorpion' from the Halo series of games.
Made a mammoth tank recently actually. Pretty functional, I think it tops out at around 130 tonnes and has a top speed of 40km/h so relatively usable.
*to make turret rotation speed faster you can just place a tiny turret down and make it smaller and then put the bigger turret on the tiny turret and then make sure you add a commanders coupla*

They contracted Kratos just to turn the turret🤣
Or like 5 Russian bears
The maus: I'm a gigantic beast that weight 188 tons
Frantic: then why don't we raise that number upwards to 200?
If the maus turret front was designed like the e100, would probably be a huge upgrade to it's survivability, imo.

The driver view port on the maus was in the middle of the hull
Ooo interesting :)
god damit I HAVNT EVEN WATCHED THE STURMTIGER BUILD HOW ARE YOU POSTING THIS FAST???
The tank was never actually produced it was just a prototype weapon
I think the coaxial gun, next to the main turret gun, is a 30 mm autocannon I could be wrong though of what it was supposed to be.
It's awesome even though it's meant to be 188 tons not 200 but it still looks good 👍
The coax gun on the maus was a 75mm auto cannon
It wasn't an auto cannon
@@tiedeman39 oh I read somewhere that it was
@grantjarden826 It was the same 75mm that was on the early Panzer 4s
Well this is much better than old maus that you build
Agreed :)
i remember when you tried making maus a year ago, crazy how the game changed
0:28 the maus was never really used by the Germans and was never sent into combat although two working prototypes existed they were never deemed fit for combat.
Nice dude maybe make a E100 the brother of the maus
Cool idea :)
This is actually heavier than the real maus which was 188 tons
Indeed :)
yee. The Maus I build was much heavier around 232 tons. Which is very heavy xD
Great video btw. it got me to build the Maus too :D
i remember you making the other maus this is way better Lol
Thanks xD
You’re rocking the Canadian tradition
Maus: Mouse but hella big
Ratte: Rat but hella big
Bison: Bison but hella small
you also need a big boi barrel/external fuel tank t the back.
You should try making a smaller version of the ratte
Have done :D Called it the mini ratte :)
You should do the m4 Sherman
The Maus was never actually used, only 2 prototypes was completed or at least one partial and the other fully completed and only one exists today which is the Hull of the first and the turret if the other
From th old mediumly good one. To technically good looking one
The hull and most of the turret look excellent! The turret front doesn't quite match any historical designs, but this is a game haha. The E-100 I made was easier since the turret is flat :D
Think you should make the bottom armor thicker
Maybe :)
The sides and back are 200 mm with the front being thicker than 200 mm
The turret face looks a little awkward because it actually doesnt have the angled front turret edges
I'm a very simple man
I see maus
I click
Same!
The tracks can’t be killed haha!
good job you did the right size of maus everything is perfect
great video, I would love to see a jet build series in storm works
say could you try making a recognizeable command & conquer tank ? well the only really recognizeable tank would be the Mammoth
YEZ HANZ GET ZE PANZER VIII
Weeeeew
Nice that one looks more original and it looks awesome bro 👍
The maus was a prototype for the E100. fun fact Germany had plans for other E series vehicles that would have simplified all German tanks and SPGs.
Next up should be the AMX Tracteur C
Your so underated your so cool and really sound like you have 2 millions subs im not kidding
Facts
2 vids within hours of each other??? Sheeeeeeeesh
Also i heard that fart
hey frantic, please build an Abrams X tank and thank you very much for making Maus :)
hellow fellow! nice tank buildin prowesss
Elloo :)

Frantic the main cannon of the maus is 140mm and the other side is 75mm im correct ✅✅💯💯
Fun fact, the maus is actually 188 tons
holy this chad of a guy actually saw my comment and made this video nicee
U created a new maus should be called Le elefant or Rhino or maus V2 sum to do with behemoth animals cuz u know moustache man loves naming tanks as strong animals
It would be awesome to see at least a time lapse of the decoration phase of the design. It’s like skipping the icing on the cake.
The real maus engine had 1000-1150 hp at 3000 rpm giving it about 6.4 horse power per tonne
Can you make a Bob Semple it would be really cool
Fun fact: we called it ze maus to distrakt and konfuse ze kommunistische piepels

I have an idea how about u try making one of those tanks from halo I would want to see that
No hate but the front of that turret, it hurts my brain when i see it😂😂, excepting that it looks pretty similar to the real one
Great vid, keep it up
I remember when he first built maus it was a bit goofy
Love these videos!
He actually stomp down the tree because it's a Vietnames snipers
Build a m1 Abrams
You forgot to angle the under front plate
imagine this next to a l3
When is the wt auf e100 tank design coming
A beaut.
Idea: scorpion tank
is the tank gun 128mm? if so that is how big the 2 Maus's had!
Make dora le howitzer or at least karl pls
The tank kinda looks like a oversized panther
The real weight is 188 but close enough
16:02
🎉
You should make a T-34
you had it then screwed up my guy
im a simple man i see panzerkampfwagen VIII Maus i click gotta love that thing
MORE DAKKA
0:30 It was a wonderweapoon, never weant into service
Wait i swear you already made a maus tank
Now make the Ratte
secondary was 75MM
can you make it overpowered tiger
How do you post two videos or more in a day?
Ummm dunno
Build the artilery
Build a M1 Abrams day 1
