@Sarge @Nilgiri @Ulla why you guys are so quite here? :P
 
The sword dance is that a osman military culture or does it come from the arabs ?

So at 2:28 the german Officers are praying together with Muslims ! Nice harmony, which does not exist anymore in this days !
The Sword Dance was by Russian Cossacks of the Wehrmacht who were deployed in the Balkans to fight Communist partisans. Cossacks are Orthodox Christians. Nothing to do with the Ottoman Empire (not sure why the creator of that video included them with the Bosnians though, even i was confused at first).

I approve of the DP. What action is it from? Kursk?

Would be a darn superweapon if it could actually fire at that rate and sustain it too :P
It was unless in battlefield very few been built on cheese built by Porsche

Tiger-II (with Porsche turret) yes was quite the princess on wheels.

But Tiger-I was quite the phenomenal tank. Yes it was somewhat over-engineered for what Germany required at the time (given the resource and labour constraints even with miracleman Speer)....but its on the field performance made up for it and the Germans developed many tactics and even strategies for its use given its limited number.

Chess would after all be quite a boring game with more than one queen per side.


Also I would like to correct you in that the Tiger tank was essentially the Henschel design and production. Porsche transmission on its candidate was deemed too unreliable (it apparently failed right in front of Hitlers personal viewing). The Porsche turret would be used in Tiger II.
