The 1940's was a different time. I do agree with you back in WW2 nothing could touch the German Engineering it was far far ahead of its time, however the Japanese had superior planes than both Germans and Americans during the war

@Focke Wulf Well, nowadays there aren't many truely bad cars around anymore. The German brands you mentioned, however, are notorious for being much costlier (acquisition and maintenance) than other brands. So from a price-performance view, one might call them trash.

in World War II, the entire blow of Nazi Germany was taken by the Soviet Union, think about it, 25 million people died, what is happening now is the rehabilitation of fascism, this cannot be allowed, history is being erased in Ukraine and monuments are being destroyed, if you do not know what is happening, try to find out reliable information.

+Charles D. Mercury II Nazi germany while fucked in the head were the greatest designers of weaponry the world has known. They took the battle field from archaic designed rifles and mg's to reliable full auto and select fire rifles.

+Charles D. Mercury II The firing speed of the original MG42 was 2000 rounds/minute. As the alloy of the release spring was kept secret and is unreachable in some safe in switzerland, todays follower of the german MG42 only fires about 1300 rounds/minute. No one could produce the quality of the original alloy of the spring. During tests, every spring was braking sooner or later. From the tecnical aspect, it was a good weapon- But my father told me, that under extreme conditions ( about - 40 Centigrades near Leningrad) in Russia, the guns sometimes didnt fire if they were not recently used.

+gosuc In theory it was or is about 900shots/min, not 2000

+Itzamountainman Sorry, 1300!

+Itzamountainman Fuck, it is 1500, I looked it up xD

Yeah that thing is spitting 'em out quick compared to the last video I watched.

AMEN

The deal is is that they are both accurate, the slower firerate is just due to the safety mechanism they added later on to keep the gun from firing out of battery

Shame on me, I forgot you were there in 1944.

The MG74 is a CURRENT issue version using 7.62mm The gun fired here is using the Light Bolt and is firing at about 900 rpm. In field use a much heavier bolt is used. Any rate of fire over 650 rpm (which is what was typical of the water cooled guns of WWI which the MG34/42 replaced is considered a waste of ammo. The 900 rpm of this gun is for anti-aircraft use. Some people also quite an 1800 rpm which is actually two MGs together.

The Russians in the east and the Yankees in the west, also soldiers from french, british colonies and nearly against the rest of the world. Germany has a shitty geostrategical position in the mid.

Used by half of Europe. Extremely good machinegun. Reliable, accurate easy to use. The fact that the hot swappable barrels came out from the side meant that the operators didn't have to expose themselves at all and could easily do it while staying in the firing position...in under 5 seconds.

Yes I believe "the pig" the M60 machine gun was based on the MG42.

Uhhh....M2 Browning, invented 1918. and the Browning 1919 MG....literally in service to this day (albeit they have been updated slightly). Don't get me wrong, I love me some MG buzzsaw, cause I think it is cool and the psychological fear factor is big, but the M2/B1919 was and is a far more effective weapon. MG42s cyclic rate was wastefully fast. The purpose of these LMGs and HMGs is to provide suppressing fire, in which case you want the gun to be shooting for as long of a period as possible without having to reload. MG42, well yeah...

sam8404 actually not really, the D-Day you see in the movies did exist but not the extent implied. The Atlantic Wall was still under construction and all the Bunkers and entrenchment that you may visualize were rare and concentrated into small areas such as Omaha and Juno. The Americans only faced about 8 MG-42s per mile of beach, while the most killing was done by infantry in tactical positions and deadly artillery from behind the lines. The MG-42 was a threat but not to the extent you may think

And the Germans couldn't raise their heads because of the enemy planes and ships. The question is not how could the Allies land but how could the Germans hold the line for two months.

@@sovietchadster907 say that to Heinrich Severloh

If the Germans were not tricked by the allies into thinking that D-Day was a diversionary battle and not the real thing, history would have been very different. Luckily the Germans were fooled and the Panzer tanks got there too late.

@@cooldudicus7668 that, and the accuracy and fire rate + the number of allied troops

I’ve read that the Atlantik Wall defenses were much less prepared than the propaganda of the time indicated. I believe they literally weren’t stocked with enough ammo.

Fortunately, the German's had to change out the barrel every 250 rounds or they would overheat and shoot the "lands and groves" right out of them.

The American starts rolling to the right to flank. And the soviet says "just wait for glorious t-34" In a nut shell american/ allied strategy was to flank and spank a place mg position. The British chose to rely on air support do to having more aircraft on standby as well as less of a chance to have casualties. The soviet ideology in a situation like this would be to wait until armored reinforcements could engage. This is evidence by many situations mostly seen in the post typhoon operations to push army group center back.
