Tank Building: What is a Tank? - Duration: 13:56.

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.

You are what you do.

You build—you're a builder.

You fly—you're a pilot.

Let's see what tanks were designed to do in the past,

and how their role has evolved since.

It's not exactly known

when the first armored fighting vehicle appeared.

Some historians point to the armored siege engines

of the ancient Greek era, medieval horse armor,

and the fantastic blueprints drawn by Leonardo da Vinci.

Something more familiar started to take shape

in the early years of the 20th century.

There's little information about these projects.

And the stories were similar to some extent,

so they can even be put together.

One day, in Great Britain,

or maybe in Austria, or maybe in France,

in or around 1912, a plumber, or,

according to some versions,

a pipefitter came up with an idea for an unusual combat vehicle.

After a couple of sleepless nights,

the draft was ready.

The inventive plumber went to the appropriate military department

with his proposal.

He was already dreaming of fame and honor.

However, the commission

came back with an answer that was quite unexpected.

The military didn't need tanks.

There was no place for them either in theory or in the practice

of military art.

But then the First World War broke out.

After a short period of active movement,

the opposing armies dug in with trenches bristling

with machine guns and covered in barbed wire.

Even if a defense line

could be broken through —at the cost of enormous casualties— armies

had trouble carrying forward the advance.

The standard methods didn't work.

Military strategists realized

that they needed something new

to crack a deeply echeloned defense.

In 1914, sir Ernest Swinton,

a British officer, engineer,

and aristocrat, presented his design

for an armed and armored tractor.

Its working name was a "machine-gun destroyer."

The British Army took no interest in the project.

The first person who saw the potential in the new proposal

was the First Lord of the Admiralty, Sir Winston Churchill.

He allocated money,

and on February 20, 1915, the Landships Committee was created.

Development was rapid and on September 10

the first tank in history,

Little Willie, was tested.

It failed the tests

because it couldn't perform a key requirement—crossing trenches

and ditches.

Engineers improved the prototype

and mass production began.

The vehicle was given an unpretentious name: the Mark I.

Its shape seems bizarre to us today.

But having the tracks go all the way around the hull

solved the problem of ditch and trench crossing.

This was a landship

in more than just name.

Many design details were borrowed from the navy.

The tank was armed with naval guns,

which were mounted in sponsons,

just like the guns on cruisers of that period.

Even its engine was initially designed

for a towing car used by the navy.

The work on the first batch was done at several factories.

To conceal the project,

the government spread the story that the vehicles were

field reservoirs for water

ordered by the Russian Army.

In correspondence,

the vehicles were called "tanks."

On September 15, 1916, landships,

already nicknamed tanks,

engaged in their first combat near the Somme River.

Thirty-two of the vehicles

moved into battle over muddy ground,

hoping for a miracle.

Five tanks became stuck

and nine broke down,

but the 18 remaining vehicles managed a breakthrough

that pierced 5 km into enemy territory.

British casualties were far lighter than usual.

The miracle had happened.

The huge steel monsters

with machine guns terrified the German soldiers

and gave the British hope

that this new weapon might win the war.

A year later, the Germans,

in response to the British "landship,"

rolled out their "mobile fort"—the A7V.

This tank had the largest number

of crewmen in history.

It was designed for the same role as the Mark I:

to help the infantry break through enemy defense lines.

In the very first period of tank building,

there was a single answer to the question "What is a tank?"

For the Germans and British,

it was a sort of ram

to help the infantry batter through enemy defenses.

However, the French brought

a different approach.

The father of French tank building

was Colonel Jean Baptiste Estienne.

He wrote in August 1915:

"Gentlemen! Victory in this war

will go to the side that first manages

to mount a 75 mm gun on a vehicle

capable of crossing any terrain."

And he was right.

When the first tanks appeared,

Colonel Estienne looked at them

and decided that the army needed

something different to support the infantry.

It should be light, small,

maneuverable, and cheap.

With this idea in mind,

he went to the largest

French manufacturer—Louis Renault.

This is how the new vehicle,

very unlike the landships, appeared.

It had two crewmen: a driver

who controlled the tank,

and a commander who did everything else.

The tank was armed with a single machine gun

or a 37 mm short-barreled cannon.

Nevertheless, the Renault FT17

became the most successful means of infantry support

and the main vehicle of the French armored forces.

Many countries became interested

in creating their own tanks

after World War I.

The military of most countries

saw the tanks as reinforcements

for the traditional military branches,

above all, the infantry.

The French and British separated their tanks

into infantry tanks and cavalry, or cruiser, tanks.

The USSR had five main tank types:

reconnaissance, combined arms,

operational, qualitative reinforcement,

and special operations vehicles.

These were supplemented with seven special types.

So, both theoretical and practical work

on the definition of "tank"

was humming along.

In the late 1930s,

tanks started getting heavier.

The age of thinly armored tanks

had come to an end.

The turning point was the Spanish Civil War.

It became clear that infantry,

at least in Europe, was capable of defeating tanks.

Light, small-caliber,

quick-firing cannons and heavy machine guns

had no trouble perforating them.

As soon as the early 20th century,

the Germans had started to develop

a theory of "lightning war"—blitzkrieg.

They weren't able to fully implement this idea

during World War I, but they continued

to refine the concept.

By the new rules,

blitzkrieg should be carried out

by large tank formations.

Now their task was not to support infantry,

but to break through,

punching deep into the enemy defenses.

Tanks were no longer expected to fight with field defenses.

They should wreak chaos in the enemy rear:

overrunning enemy headquarters,

capturing transport routes and supply depots,

and breaking up enemy forces

attempting to reinforce.

Victory would be achieved by disrupting enemy communication

and supply.

The modern army s not a Roman legion.

It can't fight without gasoline and ammunition.

According to the Germans,

tanks were not

a "supplementary means of warfare," but

"the most powerful offensive weapons."

All other forces should serve their interests.

The role of supporting the infantry

was given to another vehicle type—assault guns.

Two tanks were created

to fit this theory:

the Panzerkampfwagen III and IV.

They complemented each other on the battlefield.

The Panzer III was designed

as the main Wehrmacht tank.

It was intended to be used

to attack points without heavy anti-tank defenses.

It was designed to fight,

not vehicles, but infantry.

That's why its armament maximized the number of weapons

and rate of fire:

it was armed with three machine guns

and a 37 mm cannon.

This armament was supplemented

by an excellent observation system.

The Panzer IVs were to support

the Panzer IIIs.

Its short-barreled 75 mm gun

was good at dealing with enemy artillery

and field fortifications.

The German tank divisions proved the theories

of the general staff officers

by smashing the French Army in just a few weeks.

France had more tanks,

and their technical characteristics were not inferior.

It was the way they were used

that was obsolete.

The Panzer IIIs and IVs

played their roles perfectly

at the beginning of the German invasion

in the USSR.

But then, rather suddenly,

things started to go wrong.

The Panzers were being forced

to do something their creators hadn't planned:

fight against a new generation of tanks.

In the USSR, armored vehicles

had traditionally been designed

with greatest attention paid

to two attributes:

mobility—understandable considering

the distances and quality of roads

in the USSR—and firepower.

A third factor was added

after the Spanish Civil War.

The tanks of the new generation—the T-50,

T-34, and KV-1—received armor designed

to defeat enemy shells.

These tanks emerged as excellent vehicles

with balanced characteristics.

Realizing that they would have to fight

masses of Soviet armored vehicles,

the Germans revised their views

on what tanks should do.

The anti-tank role

became the priority.

New Panzers, like the Panther,

for example, had long-barreled guns

and thicker armor.

No longer were they envisioned

conducting lightning-fast attacks on the enemy rear.

Now they were built to fight enemy tanks.

The ambition of the German military

and designers to achieve qualitative superiority

in armor and armament by any means

became a sort of mania.

The Tiger appeared in 1942.

It was good, but not big enough.

The engineers designed the Maus.

Also, not big enough.

They made it a little bit bigger

and got the Ratte.

Someone said: "Too small!"

And this project turned into a 1500-ton monster… but,

only on paper.

If the Third Reich's tank designers

had had more time,

perhaps we would have seen something even bigger.

In the period immediately after

the end of World War II,

there was still no single answer

to the question "What is a tank?"

Actually, there were two answers:

medium tanks, the "work horses"

of armored forces;

and heavy tanks and assault guns,

which would be deployed as

"reinforcement in offense and defense."

The military wanted to have one type of tank

for both roles,

but the engineers couldn't deliver it.

They were limited by technology,

especially in engine power and transmission.

In the late 1950s, the British designed

a 105 mm tank gun that,

just like the Beatles,

became very popular in all the Western countries.

It was used in the Centurion 7 and M60,

and then in the M48 Patton 3

and Leopard 1.

The reason for its success was simple:

a medium tank equipped

with this gun could penetrate

the Soviet heavy tanks head on.

Besides an excellent armor-piercing shell,

the gun could fire powerful high-explosive shells.

In response, the Soviet 115 mm

smoothbore gun appeared.

It did the same thing against the NATO heavy tanks—it could

penetrate their front armor

with certainty.

After the British L7 rifled gun

and Soviet smoothbore gun

entered mass production,

heavy tank development

shut down in all countries.

Heavy tanks were still used,

but MBTs—main battle tanks—gradually

replaced them.

The designers had managed

to create vehicles that were fast,

well-armored, and heavily-armed,

all at the same time.

The curse had been lifted.

Vehicles of the new type

finally made it very simple

to answer the question

"What is a tank?"

It's a versatile combat vehicle

with good firepower,

strong armor,

and high maneuverability,

capable of breaking through

a defense or defending a certain area.

When tanks first appeared

they were exotic machines,

designed to overcome the deadlock of trench warfare.

Now they are a mainstay

of modern ground forces.

It is sometimes said

that tanks are out of fashion.

But they seem unlikely to give

their place to something else in the near future.

What is the Use of Prayers - Eckhart Tolle - Duration: 12:22.

the use of Prayer how to use it whether to use it at all

now that word can mean many different things it can mean going to church and

saying please God let me have that job I promise I'll be good if you only let me

have that job I practice that as a child

please let there be some peace in my family didn't work so from somebody who

went to church every Sunday then at 12 I must have decided that there was no

point anymore

but there are many different kinds of prayer

there are petitionary prayers you would like something they may sometimes work

but you never know whether it was the prayer whatever you would have gotten it

anyway there are more effective ways if you really feel that you need to want

something but be careful it won't make you happy but that's another story if

you really feel you want something you can use affirmation and visualization

and when you get it enjoy it don't look for yourself in it don't look for to it

for deep inner fulfillment or some kind of permanent permanently enhanced sense

of self or permanent happiness nothing that you achieve can give you that

knowing that you can play around with the world of form and Jesus already

explained how to pray for something and that is we said when you pray for

something feel as if you already had it as if it had already been given so

you're not saying I want something because if you say I want something it

affirms a lack it it says on the other side the unexpressed side I don't have

it so when you say I want it you're also stating that you don't have

it so you're praying at the same time not to have it if you affirm and

visualize that it is already here and you feel as if you had it that's the

feeling that you want to get from it you already have that feeling and that's the

truth because you're imagining that it's going to give you feelings of peace or

happiness which is always in you already if you go just got inside deep enough

but let me know I don't want to discourage you from playing around in

the world of form so why not try it out visualize that it is already yours it's

you have it and you feel what you feel as you have it thank you for giving me

that it's beautiful whatever it may be the house you already in it feels good

thank you it's nice to have that house Thanks yeah it's already there it's more

likely to manifest in that way and then you move in and you go from there then

you sit there you feel all great I've got it and then the old mind patterns

come up in the new house

in the other prayers that are used the oil in different religions and they are

can be called pointers they are more advanced prayers they appoint us to a

particular state it's not that uttering those words produces magically

the state what matters when you utter certain words or prayers then most of

them are short is really the stillness that comes after that Buddhism for

example has the Metta meditation which is a kind of prayer which starts with I

believe may everybody on this planet be well and happy and then after you've

uttered those words there's a stillness

and then it says to me everybody in this country be well into happy

Metta means loving kindness and then there's a stillness may every being in

this city be well and happy stillness may everybody in this house be well and

happy may I be well and happy and she takes you into a stillness and the being

of well and happy is already there in the stillness it's there it spreads you

could become still it would spread anyway even without the words because

whatever state of consciousness you are in effects the totality and in turn is

the totality manifesting through you and we have the beautiful Christian prayer

by saint francis i believe let me be an instrument of thy peace

where there is hatred let me sow love and so on where there is injury pardon

and so on and those prayers are openings they open if they open a door and the

orbits they take you into stillness and they are beautiful most prayers operate

still on the level of duality even when you say let me be an instrument of thy

peace you are still using the language of duality is me and thigh presumably is

God there's me and there's God so God is perceived still as something or someone

separate from me nevertheless it's a beautiful prayer and if stillness

follows the prayer in the stillness you have transcended duality so most prayers

aren't realistic and then you can have although the meta prayer in Buddhism is

let may all beings be well and happy is fine there's no duality really there

although you're still saying that many beings ultimately there's only one but

what can you do here using language and

then there are short things that are almost like mantras just single words

peace for example the word itself doesn't produce peace but it is a

pointer stillness one of the most beautiful pointers to be found in the

Old Testament be still and know that I am God and this is why if we can call

that a prayer it is a kind of prayer it is a prayer where duality is

transcended and it is a miraculous prayer the words of which it consists

are all synonyms for one single thing be still know I am God be being one

being such in Sanskrit being and stillness are one it is the stillness of

being itself before it becomes comes into existence as something we still

know in the stillness that is being there is a deep knowing non-conceptual a

deep intelligence not words not thoughts deeper than thought because it's the

primordial seat of all intelligence be still know I am

it is the innermost sense of beingness or I am God the divine the source the

one and you put these words together each word signifies also the other

they're all one be still know I am God

miraculous

so that is those are advanced prayers and powerful they put you in touch be

still and know that I am God is one of the most powerful and beautiful pointers

to the truth and one of those rare ones that uses language without taking you

into duality
