World of Tanks: What is a tank? History of tanks

- What is a tank? It might seem like a very simple question. But it’s not an easy one to answer. To realize how big the problem is, take a look at an encyclopedia. It will say something like “a tank is an armored fighting vehicle, typically tracked, and carrying a cannon as main armament.” This description is very loose. Since there’s no ready answer, we’ll have to find it for ourselves. Let’s see what tanks were designed to do in the past, and how their role has evolved since.

All soldiers: *climbs*
That one soldier: *can’t climb*
*Embarrassed for almost 100 years*
Most like terrified but what he had witnessed. Ww1 was an extremely horrifying war.
Imagine living in the times they still used horses and horse buggies as the only way of transportation besides a steam train. And looking over the trenches to charge the enemy only to notice they have captured your friendly tanks and are using them against you, and planes and armored cars. Vehicles and technology you never think would exist because your life is just farming and trying to survive the gruesome world of the 1900s. Time was rough back then we didn't have the medicine or technology of anything we have today. All we had was 49 states cabins and farming tools and muskets and very old horrible prototype bolt action rifles. Ww1 changed the world in so many ways from vehicles to weapons to medicine and plastic surgery and even legal and illegal military weapons/actions. It created the molding that molded todays world. Its both a blessing and a curse.a blessing to us now a curse to those who suffered.
@InVinCIble gAMinG it was extremely common for soilders to hide and not battle. Most soilders now still hide. Its a reaction of completely paralyzing fear a lot like cornering a dog and a dog catcher putting a net on it. Its frozen until the dog catcher catches it and then its fight or flight. Lots of men were terrified witnessing ww1 because just only 10 years prier the jappo russia war happened and introduced trenches, ww1 also changed how artillery was used they did however use nepolions artillery method but it was found to be to dangerous as the artillery would hit each other and cause rhem to fight without artillery or machine guns which at that stage in thw war was extremely dangerous due to mud jamming guns.
So alot of men would talk about it... If shell shock didn't set in, alot were horrified to tbe point of it others were shooken until it happened. So men knowing the dangers were very horrified and their own commanders shot them if they didn't charge or disserted.
I think ww1 is the most horrific war. So much history, so many gruesome stories, so many lost lives, so many lost stories that may never be revealed or will be revealed bur not believed by anyone, so many controversies, so many inventions truely confusing on if it was even worth it. Was ww1 worth creating cars, planes, modern boats, (American civil war was 30 years before and they still had old english style boats the pirate kind,) and even helicopters? (Prototyped during ww1 by Germany and again by germany in ww2 but thia one actually worked and was mass produced sorta and was used in ww2 as a transport vehicle. It was prototyped from ww1 to ww2.) Knowing what i know about ww1 which is alot but still not everything, i dont think the war was worth it maybe it would have been better to arrest the assassin and put him in a military style prison for the offense. But back tben things like that was new. Guns were evolving to the point they turned more dangerous and caused damgeer to the public more and ww1 made rhat situation much worse by making machine guns the most popular choice in todays world. This could also be fixed by selling the public modern muskets. Cant have gun threats if the guns take forever to reload while the military and police have better weapons. Making bad stuff simply just disappear
I think he is cover fire?

Ru is so fast...
Well yes the other two can fly but the bt-7 was made to fly XD
Oof now there is EBR 105
LOL
Stranger 1: It's a airplane!
Stranger 2: it's a helicopter!
Stranger 3: it's Superman!
Stranger 4: Guys don't you see it's a tank?
They should put these WWI tanks in the game at their own super low tier :P who else wants that?
Doom Gaming super low tier? U mean tier -1 -2 -3?
but no mark 1 sadly
They should add MK I
There used to have a Mark I or Mark V in WoT Blitz

this kind of History Lessons need to be teached at school.
this is the kind of History Lesson I like.
thanks!
I asked my history teacher to do so, but he said that he didn't know anything about tanks at all
@@hendrikkiefer3325 not everyone is a tanker 😂
@@minchy4926 the teacher needs to be fired

Then go to the military school, why a civil school need to teach you something you want to learn?

That poor soldier that tried to climb
Shouldnt he be lucky to not be in the battlefield?
Petition to replace History channel with Wargaming
I would watch that channel all day
13:08 now I know where wargaming got the 152mm cannon sound in blitz. good to know.
Why do you even focus on sound?

What is tank?
Arty don't shoot me! Don't shoot me! No more!
Generally a tracked vehicle with a turret and a gun and or no turret and a gun. EG: Sherman tank or Swedish S tank.
this is what a tank
it use to shot infantry and fight other tanks
a logic of tanker
bigger gun,bigger pen = easy to one shot a tank
What is a tank?
A tank is a vehicle that was named as “tank” by his designer.
A tank is a vehicle with steel armor with conveyor belt-like treads
It would be so amazing if WG, or other gaming company, would create a game where you get to drive ALL tanks. From WW1 to present day. Imagine starting at tier 1 with a Mark 1 and finishing at tier 20/30/whatever with a Challenger 2.
Anyhow, awesome video WG!
Coming in ten years with half of them as premium tanks.
Holy shi how'd you can predicted such a thing@@oliviersavard8676
It is good that a tank is made because if there is no tank there is no world of tanks
Tank
A large receptacle or storage chamber, especially for liquid or gas.
Also tank
A large vehicle carrying ammunition and delivering said power package to one's foe .
Before WW1: Canons
WW1 and 2: Tanks
WW3: Daleks
Daleks look kinda like tanks tho
@@memeist2472 jets
More like javelins
Let's all agree that modern tanks are beautiful and being able to see one up close would bring out the wonderous child in us all
A great primer and thanks for posting, WG!
To expand a bit: Panzer IV Lang was the so-called " F2". In actuality, these came about as they were finishing the F serie run of production. Krupp upgraded the last F serie examples to the "G" ausf. Pz IV ausf D was not the uparmored, upgunned, version that saw wisdespread service, though a D might've been the trials vehicle for the project.
really clear and concise video i think anyone could understand, well done wargaming! I love your historical videos.
Very very good video. Very educational and interesting. Wargaming is doing a very good job. Keep it up guys.
FUTURE of the Tank ? Well probably robotization. Imagine : Tomorrow a tank which needed 4-5 crew members reduced to only one.
The Death but that is the main fun in tank, imagine being in a tank with friends in epic moments. Ya its war but It gives some more Memorable moments to tell to future generations As All of them would love hearing war stories....
yes, however if money is more important than victory, it's obvious that our goverments will use robot tanks.
The German Bundeswehr can't improve their tanks and make them automatic - because they don't have enough 😭😭😭
You know the scorpion from halo
Wargaming Europe can make nice movies.. now learn to make some nice specials :)
like a new generation tank at tier 11-13?
no!
yeah because german tanks from 1943 would fight against nonexisting tanks from 1950, talk about armor and penetration....
amazing seeing you here
Amazing!!
Keep up the good work Wargaming!!
Mark ones driving around on swamp (?) and Malinovka (?) I would say we have multi turret support confirmed!
PLEASE, DO MORE OF THESE VIDEOS. They're sooo cooool
Realy enjoyed this thankyou for keeping up your high standards
Far more educative and interesting than what discovery , national and history channel make .
Extremely informative. Thanks.
4:21 is that skype lol?
Yesss loool
yep
I'm missing something
in the backround you can hear the skype message sound
there's MLG sniped thing sound as well
World of Tank 1 confirmed
thx for upload very interisting!!!
That was an awesome documentary, I loved it in all ways. Just wondering, why such information as thickness of armour in hangar cannot be used in the game itself? I mean now we only have a table that says how thick turret or the hull is, but that is definitely not enough details. You can get more info from fan crated websites about vehicle's armour than from the game itself.
Awesome video "Bon travail !"
Great video ! Thanks.
Gracias por poner lo subtitulos en castellano. Los 14 min me han sabido a muy poco.
Increible el trabajo que le habeis dedicado!!
Realmente un Tanque o Vehiculo Blindado no estan desfasados, pero si que es cierto que su mayor problema esta sobre sus cabezas, si se carece de armamento antiaereo, el tanque se convierte en una preciosa y cara diana para los aviones / bombarderos.
gracias amigos por la recopilacion historica.
Very enjoyable video
beat dropped harder than my ru 251’s hit points
Vidéo très intéressante, vous devrez en faire plus des commes ça
C'est vraiment très intéressant :-)
Very interesting video! Tanks a lot ;-)
I don’t know why, but I love the flying tank lol
I love these videos!
The panzer 3 was designed to fight other tanks with its higher velocity cannon and the panzer 4's main purpose was to support the infantry and deal with fortifications with its low velocity cannon.
good documentary of tanks :) Like
This was really good.
PLease add the mark 1and the a7v to wot! LIke so they see this!!
They would be easily destroyed; WoT is full of interwar and WW2 tanks specifically designed to fight tanks.
Meanwhile in ww2 mk1 goes around the field and gets destroyed by a light tank
Best History lesson Ive ever seen
I always love the musical accompaniment which comes with your videos. xD I want those musical tracks... Dx
There is a lot of music were used in this video :) Can you be more specific?
Сергей Фёдоров Well, the very first one. The one which sounded like a marching tune with a fife and drum really got to me. xD
Flying Endeavor It is Parade by Chris Blackwell published by Audio Netwrok 2010
Сергей Фёдоров Awesome :) Thank you so much ^^
amazing video!
short answer what is tank?
it contains water or fuel and can be called fuel tank. and if you were on gas station you can tell them full tank please
Hell of a joke man. 😂😂
Very Nice 👍
Good Video
Nice video
My dad: games don’t teach you anything
World of tanks: get outta here boiii
What is a tank?
A vehicle with steel armor with conveyor belt-like treads that provide protection for it's crews.
Good video
I never thought a video game company would teach me more about history than my all of my old high school history classes. :)
GOOD VIDEO WARGAMING
This is the best video
This is beautiful
Entertaining stuff, though just to be pedantic the 105mm was first used in the Centurion 5/2 and mk 7 didn't get the 105mm until the 7/2 mark.
in my definition , tanks are horses / knights / caverlery of this modern new age .
Carriage
When gamedevelopers have to teach you history. well done
Ernest Swinton gave me literal chills! Beautiful editing 😍
This was interesting
I see that the Mark tank will soon appear on the server haha?
Same for Matilda 2
13:25 nice Armored Warfare shot scenes :D
Wargaming the people that give us light tanks that drive around in circles Talking about history.... That's almost as funny as disappearing shots
Best wargaming video Ever!
It is very good informatio. It should be teach in schools and colleges.
A very well done video 10 out of 10 wargaming.
Yo guys, the image you showed of "armored siege engines of the Greek era" were actually those of the Assyrians. They predated the Greeks as I recall. Just letting you guys know
Wargaming give us the ability to use multiple guns at once!
They are finally adding MK VI Tanks?
That would be cool if even are Rental Model so we can understand how MK VI or A7V acted in tank Battles that would be so cool
0:31 a BT tank with wings?
Me: *iLl* *TaKe* *YoUr* *EnTIRe* *StOCk*
Wargaming EU is explaining things better than our teachers.
A good education 👌
A tank is an armored vehicle that moves on tracks and has a cannon as a main weapon in a turret as well as a coaxial machine gun to fight infantry. An infantry fighting vehicle is an armored vehicle made to fight infantry. An armored car is... Well, an armored car. A self-propelled gun is an armored vehicle that moves on tracks and has at least 1 gun mounted in the hull or a howitzer mounted in a turret. A howitzer is a large artillery gun with wheels to move the thing and often a thin piece of metal to protect its operators from shrapnel.
Tanks for answering the question!
....okay I'll go.
can you soon do history of warplanes
All those Canadian Leopard 2A4M CAN's and 2A6M CAN's :D
13:39 Indonesian Flag 👌
What is a tank?
"A container used to contain water"
Bon documentaire !
nice
My vehicle of choice for Saturday commutes to work.
Wargaming can you make tanks planes and warship in one game please
I would love to see tanks added from World War I and World War II and maybe some weird wonky tanks that I never heard of
05:12 the pronunciation was epic (I'm french)
Cant wait you video about... " what is matchmaking? "
a small tank can disable a larger one if it aims of shoots at the turret or destroys the gun?
I like the music
Ive always wanted to see if they would make a mode called "WW1" In that we would use WW 1 tanks. Ive always wanted something like this and now i see it as a possibility. I really do wonder if wargaming will see this comment.
Thank you, just thank you
Looking for next episode ...... pls
Tanks
cool
Anyone got an idea what the music-track is, that is played from about 11:25 to the end of the video?
We're far from Battleshit 1 and their 60 km/h Mark V
PS: Vive la France et le Char Renault FT !
Battlefield 1 is using the Mark 5
GD EasyStart
That's what I wanted to put.
But that does change much
Have you seen that lightning turret speed man :#
To be fair, in the defense of BF1, the NORMAL speed of a tank would mean the match was OVER before it got anywhere. So, it's a matter of FUN over REALISM.
TheKenji2221 ur right those mk V tanks from battlehole 1 can outdrive a damn supercar!
A tank supports infantry as like a pushing barracde. The way we use tanks is like how should use a tank destoryer
Wg can you add the mark 1 but buff the armour and make it a super heavy td
