At 4:50 it can be interesting, that the basements in Budapest were connected to the neigboring houses with emergency tunnels, that were sealed only with one layer of brick, so in the case of collapse the people in the air raid shelters could use it for evacuation. During the siege the defenders used these tunnels , but later the soviets figured it out also.

@arturcsecserits497

@@LV-nb9cs The tunnels were built from 1937 to connect the houses in case of emergency. So one reason that in peacetime you don't want anybody to access your cellar or buildign from a neigbouring house. The main reason that this one layer of brick was also plastered, so the cellar was gastight, like the rest of the air raid shelter. The shelters built under old houses in the majority of the cases were not bombproof, but gasproof , so you had to make it gastight. the one layer could be demolished with a simple hammer , if the building collapsed and there was no otherway out. In such cases if they can't get out the people in the shelter would suffocate. (the shelters also prowinded protection against splinters and rubble)

8:13 I'm surprised to see the Panzerfaust mentioned here as commonly used in urban fights along with all this other anti-infantry weaponry. The seeming implication is that it was not uncommon to use a Panzerfaust against infantry in urban terrain, which seems odd considering that it's a shaped charge.
@mlmmt
@mlmmt Рік тому
Something that goes boom is still something that goes boom, sure it might be a shaped charge, but if it goes off in an enclosed area I would imagine the blast effect is still plenty sufficient to kill.
@noobster4779
@noobster4779 Рік тому
It is light to carry and easy to use It can hit targets behind cover/house walls do to the shaped charge The famous RPG, a more modern Panzerfaust, is used in city combat all over the planet for decades by this point despite mainly having a shaped charge as well. It gives the average infantery soldier something to blow a hole into a fortified enemy and it is easy to carry. Also if tanks are appearing you have somethibg on hand to deal with it.
@NaturalLanguageLearning

You must take the emotional effect into account. There is not a lot of arguing with someone holding a panzerfaust to your face. Also, they are really good at punching holes through the buildings which can later be enlarged to infil or exfil.
@DeltaEchoGolf
@DeltaEchoGolf Рік тому
Would be good against an enemy in the next building or room. Shooting through a wall and having the blast combined with the blown bricks as a type of shrapnel. Even possibly causing a partial collapse of the structure itself. If nothing else, to use a Panzerfaust to blast an escape route if cornered.

Re loopsholes in basements, at least in Germany Luftschutzkeller always were intended to have a point of failure (Sollbruchstelle) for the occupants of adjacent buildings to be able to come to the rescue of their neighbours with nothing more than Sledgehammers. In fact this is how the owner of the house where I grew up in were rescued by their neighbours when the water main was hit and they were drowning in the air raid shelter.

One of the main differences to me (not an expert) seems to be how common small AT guns / field guns were then and how there aren't many now. Wouldn't something like a towed 30mm that can be pulled along by a few guys or a car or something, or assembled at a buildings' upper window, still be pretty versatile or useful in urban combat? Do we just have much better things to do the same job now like ATGMs/RPGs and mortars? Still wondering where the infantry's direct-fire anti-infantry/anti-fortification/"light artillery" role comes from.

Thanks for the video. Really interesting to hear about someone's (at that time) recent experience and thoughts on urban combat. It's one part of my own brief bit of military training that I remember somewhat. Like always use something like a Carl Gustav to make the entry point in a building you are assaulting. Not the actual entryways. Part of me wants to know if this Lieutenant Colonel (if I remember his rank) survived the war.

The Video is really great as always but i am slightly confused. Which german infantry manual do you mean at 11:07 ? You are quoting your own book and that is fine but you claim its from a german regulation so which one is it? I have acces to a scanned copie of "Der Sturmzug der Gerenadier-Kompanie" from 1945 and i didnt find a fitting paragraph to the quote from your book thats at 11:07. Its entirely possible that i overread something but i didnt find anything similar in the defensiv section of the manual. So what other source is it from? Is it a different german regulation? Or did you combine information from multiple sources in that paragraph from your book? (I hope my point is understandable im a native german so english is just my second language)
@MilitaryHistoryVisualized

I'm not sure the Soviets actually liked the Hungarians. There's a reason why they rose up in revolt in 1956 after all, and look at how brutal the Soviets repressed it. Stalin just wanted to completely submit Poland and getting rid of the Home Army was paramount to that goal. Hungary was treated just like Poland after the war, but the Soviets didn't need to eliminate a large local resistance movement that could be a threat to them. Although resistance movements against the Soviets did exist in probably every East-European country the Soviets occupied and either annexed or turned into Soviet satellite states.
@domaxltv
@domaxltv Рік тому
The poles did not care to inform the soviets or even the british (who were sheltering the polish government in exile) about plans to revolt, and while the soviets were relatively close to Warsaw during the uprising, they had also recently advanced the front by a really large distance meaning that their own divisions would be battered and out of supply after a massive offensive... It made both political and strategic sense for the soviets to not help because it would have most likely costed them dearly in terms of men and materiel due to having to force even more attacks with depleted forces and give up a prime opportunity to shore up their positions in other parts of the frontline. (at the same time as they would have been getting themselves dug right into city fighting, Germany was busy rushing in every single division they could to oppose the soviets from attacking further, which could have possibly even led to a military disaster to end off the previously successful soviet offensive if their streched lines got broken and they failed to secure any good positions for follow on offensives) The fact that Stalin got to fuck over the polish government in exile was just icing on the cake for him, pretty much Basically a huge case of the Home army thinking it could liberate itself against the germans so soviets wouldnt get to take over warsaw, but only running into the reality that they needed outside help - which due to their own haste in literally not talking to the people who could help them - was practically non-existent
