A variant of a talk given at Flying Heritage Collection, the sequel to "Myths of American Armor." In it, I go over the thought process behind the development of the tank destroyers, and some of the vehicles they created in the search of the correct equipment with which to equip them.

[Update: Sold for $34,500] Yet another from this first salvo from Rock Island Auction Company, the surprisingly unknown Dodge Weapons Carrier. This vehicle has been updated with disk brakes vice the original drums, I didn't catch that at the time.

Part two of the two-part walkaround. Flying things, and model ships.

On sale at the Rock Island Auction Company, May 3-5 2019, the Multiple Gun Motor Carriage M16, with all the dakka a man could want. Vehicle sold for $97,750

The next in the series of 'How-to' videos, in case you find yourself with a Marder and want to know how to shoot it. Being replaced by Puma in German service, the vehicle is continuing to see service in the used-tank market. The sim used is Steel Beasts Pro PE. Facebook Page: https://www.facebook...

You will recall that I declared the Marmon-Herrington MTLS-1G14 to be the worst tank ever, in this video. https://youtu.be/faaea_1jWaE . Therefore, logic dictates that the CTL-3, sold to the US Marine Corps, cannot be as bad as the MTLS. Of course... everything is relative. Public facebook page: ...

A Q&A Special, does the fact that other guns are more accurate mean that 17pr is inaccurate? Perfect is the enemy of good enough, after all. Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/The_Chieftain Direct Paypal https://paypal.me/thechieftainshat Subscribestar https://www.subscribestar.com/the_chieftain

I had a few minutes to sneak around the museum with my mobile 'phone camera. Just to show you what's there if you are debating taking the time to visit.

Or, how to use the M1 to kill things (Other than running over them). An overview of the knobs, toggles and buttons, and then how they all work together to put steel on target.. The sim, for those few hard-core enough, is Steel Beasts Pro PE. T-Shirt designed by Jin Ching-Lim https://www.artstatio...

The Greyhound, that famous little 6x6, which was actually something of a happy accident. As with the others in this batch, available for sale at the Rock Island Auction Company 3-5 May 2019.

OK, I really need to slow down my panning and get a stabilizer. I know. But this should give you an idea of what's there.

This is a compantion piece to the one by Military History Visualized at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xTQ-oyo-G4 The T-34, rightfully, is one of the icons of WW2, and one of the most successful tanks ever built. It did not, however, have the most auspiscious start to its career, and though in ...

The CV9040B and C. One of the largest guns on an IFV, with some neat tricks up the sleeve of the C Model. Note: After recording, I found a CV9040 gunner. He says the gun is actually stabilised. Again, using Steel Beasts Pro PE, if you are/were a crewman of a vehicle modelled in the sim which I ha...

The core of which is the old MVTF or the Littlefield Collection, now under the care of the Collings Foundation. Can be visited this weekend.
