War Thunder: The Shooting Range | Episode 68 - Duration: 15:40.The Shooting Range
In this episode…
The small company called "Porsche" and what they were doing during WWII;
Maus — scary and totally useless!
Hotline: the developers answer questions that you've left in the comments!
But first, let's start with…..
The story of Ferdinand Porsche!
For a long time we wanted to tell you about this designer in our Pages of History section.
But there was just too much to discuss.
So, for this one we've decided to step away from our usual format
and use the whole show to talk about him and his work…
except for the Hotline, of course!
Pages of History Ferdinand Porsche
Meet Ferdinand Porsche, a famous Austrian designer who created lots of different cars
from the famous "Beetle" to racing supercars.
During WWI
He was also involved in creating military vehicles, from cars and aircraft engines
and to traction units for moving heavy weapons off-road, or via railroads.
He didn't have any higher education,
but for his war successes he received an honorary doctorate
from the Vienna University of Technology… and then the real fun began.
In 1931, Ferdinand Porsche founded a company after his own name.
It was basically a construction bureau that created blueprints for their clients' orders.
They had almost no production assets.
Just a workshop and a small garage.
But what they did have was a team of outstanding engineers picked personally by Ferdinand Porsche.
The most notable invention of the company in the 30's was probably the The People's Car
The Volkswagen Beetle, and its wartime modifications
the Kübelwagen and the Schwimmwagen.
Working on those projects Porsche became more friendly with Hitler
who respected the designer very much.
He also made friends with Fritz Todt, who later became head of three ministries.
Those connections got the Porsche company into tank designing.
In the late 30's this branch of the German industry was shakey.
By the start of the WWII,
the army still hadn't received its heavy tanks,
though they'd already been in development for almost three years.
The new modifications of the Panzer I and II were also late,
and the situation with medium tanks was a complete disaster.
The Panzer III Ausf E had a lot of quality and production problems.
As a result, the army was almost without a main medium tank at the beginning of the war.
The blame was on the German Army Weapons Agency, also known as the Heereswaffenamt or the HWA.
As you might have guessed, Hitler totally hated those guys
for not doing their job as they should have done.
In september 1939, Hitler and Fritz Todt found a way to change the situation.
They established the Third Reich's Tank Commission headed by none other than Ferdinand Porsche.
It operated outside HWA's jurisdiction
and not only evaluated tanks but also created them.
A month later the Daimler-Benz company got the right to work independently
on the new medium tank that would replace the Panzer III.
After another few months Fritz Todt became the Reichsminister for Armaments and Munitions.
At first the Tank Commission was only evaluating the projects of other companies.
The first order for creating it's own tank came as early as December 1939.
They had to design a new heavy tank
with a mass of about 25-30 tons to replace the Panzer IV.
The project combined the work of a whole bunch of manufacturers,
including the one that belonged to Ferdinand Porsche.
When the tank was ready, he gave it a second name aside the usual production number
the "Leopard".
This was the start of a new tradition
giving animal names to German tanks.
By the way, another variant of this tank was proposed by Henschel Works,
but Porsche's tank had better guns, so it got to production.
The requirements were becoming steeper, and they'd made so many updates that eventually,
the Leopard turned out to be a whole new tank.
It was heavier, slower and more powerful.
Using the analogy, they called it the Tiger.
Throwing common sense aside they started producing it without any tests and prototypes.
Of course, the tank turned out to have a whole load of initial problems and principal flaws.
But the production already began and they had to correct all those on the fly,
which totally screwed the production plan.
They were going to assemble 76 Tiger P's from april to october 1942,
and they managed to get only 10 of those.
On the other hand, the competitors from Henschel had a load of troubles as well,
and they also failed to meet their production plan.
After this failure the Tiger P assembly paused for comparative tests with the Henschel variant.
The Porsche tank proved to be a bit better,
but the production was still shut down,
and the chassis became a base for the new Ferdinand tank destroyers.
Rumour has it, that the Tiger P project was shut down because of the bad electric transmission.
But the decision turned out to be mostly political.
Fritz Todt had already died by that time and
Porsche didn't get on well with the new Reichsminister, Albert Speer.
The HWA saw the opportunity to push their own tanks into production.
As for the electric transmissions,
the Germans liked them so much, they issued twice the planned number of those.
Keep in mind, it was wartime and copper wasn't easy to come by!
At the same time, Germany started developing the Panthers.
As the head of the Tank Commission, the
Ferdinand Porsche was one of those, who evaluated the prototypes
to decide which one should be produced.
This time, the Commission approved the project by the MAN company.
By the way, they planned to use the same electric transmission as the Tiger P.
But Porsche persuaded Hitler that it would be too difficult to mass-produce,
and the Panthers got a simplified transmission.
Ferdinand Porsche wasn't only supervising the development of the new tanks,
he also participated in field tests.
But a lot of his work never made it to the front line…
Pages of History Porsche's projects during WWII
In winter 1941 Porsche and other leading experts of tank designing
arrived to the Eastern Front to examine Soviet and German tanks in action.
Using this information and borrowing some ideas from the early T-34s,
the companies Porsche and Krupp worked together
to develop a new tank using the Tiger P as a base.
They managed to correct most of the issues found in the previous model,
but the production still got closed even before the field tests.
In 1942 the Porsche company started developing air-cooled diesel engines for tanks
and other military vehicles.
Despite a popular belief, diesel fuel was not only used in the fleet.
To simplify the production and repair process,
the government ordered to create a line of standard diesel engines for vehicles.
But they managed to successfully test a heavy tank engine only by the end of the war, when
there was no point in producing it.
This project also gave life to diesel engine for the RSO.
By the way, those tractors were another good piece of tech created by the Tank Commission.
And when the Tigers and Panthers went into production,
the government decided to stop using the Panzers III and IV.
But that would leave the army without light caterpillar chassis.
So the HWA ordered the Porsche and Rheinmetall companies
to create a multipurpose tank able to hit ground and air targets.
Rheinmetall created the turret with a 55-mm gun, and Porsche created an original chassis.
The concept was quite unusual and contained a lot of interesting ideas.
Still, this tank never got to production as well.
we can't talk about Ferdinand Porsche
and not remember another quite interesting topic to discuss
the super-heavy tanks.
Pages of History Maus
In March 1942, the Tank Commission, led by Ferdinand Porsche
received an order to create a tank with a mass of about 100 tons.
The Porsche company had the first rough plan ready by June of the same year,
and Hitler loved it.
For the project VK 100.01
they planned to use a suspension of the Tiger.
An electric transmission and a similar diesel engine to that of the Tiger.
Another project was presented by the Krupp company,
but their "Lion"couldn't compete with Porsche's "Mouse", so it was abandoned.
Still, Krupp got to develop a turret for the new tank.
And what they did to it!
The tank didn't have any protection from infantry,
and the government decided that a simple machine-gun wouldn't be enough.
No, they wanted a 75-mm gun for that!
The Krupp company got creative and used the tank turret… as a base for another turret
where they mounted the wanted weapon!
The tank also received new armour and got heavier
Up to 140 tons.
But it didn't stay that way for long.
After a couple of months Krupp designed another turret that weighed 57 tons itself
like a whole Tiger!
And when Porsche created the new chassis for this one
the overall weight of the Maus went up to 150 tons.
Then they decided to move the turret to the tail of the tank and place the engine in the middle.
After all the corrections the tank weighed 170 tons
and Porsche engines already couldn't power such heavy vehicle.
So they switched to the engines by Daimler-Benz.
The last problem was with the suspension.
To mount the one made by Porsche you'd have to drill a lot of holes in an extremely thick armour.
In the whole of Germany there was only one manufacturer able to do that
The Kruppcompany, and they used a unique tool for that.
If something would happen to it, the Maus couldn't be built.
The solution came from the Skoda company that developed a simple and comfortable suspension
that was very easy to mount.
The final version of the Maus weighed 188 tons,
and it could only be assembled when a whole range of companies
combined their expertise.
They only built two prototypes, one with a diesel engine and one with gasoline one
and none of those ever fought in a war.
But the tests proved that despite a completely absurd task,
Porsche designed an absolutly real working tank.
Completely useless, but what the heck…!
After the war Ferdinand Porsche and his company returned to tank designing.
A prototype of the first German MBT was built totally under their supervision,
and as the first ever tank of this company, it received the name Leopard.
Get ready for the traditional last part of our show: Hotline!
Developers answering questions from the comments!..
Hotline The first question comes from TheDataChip:
"Will you ever add the A-10 Warthog?"
Hey, mate!
Can't confirm or deny, it's a bit early to talk about that.
A player called Csaba Álmos Debretteni (hope we pronounced it right) asks:
"Are we going to see the Ju-287 sometime?"
Chances are, that you actually will, we remember about this one.
But not in the near future, that's for sure.
Then there is this line from 'nine':
"You better add a baguette decal!"
Hello there!
As always, we plan to add a decal in honour of the closed beta of the French planes.
But what it will be — we can't say yet.
You'll see it all in the news on our site.
Effisjens asks:
"If you DO read them all, please answer, will War Thunder ever make it's way to Xbox one?"
As you can see, we actually, really, truly, absolutely, do read them all!
And yes, as you probably already know,
we've just announced the release of the Xbox one and Xbox One X version last week.
And the last one comes from RFenus:
"Happy Birthday, War Thunder!"
Thank you!
And thank all of you guys, for playing our game for all these five years!
It wouldn't be possible without you!
That's it for today but feel free to write your questions in the comments below.
We do read them all, and you might see some of them answered in the next episode!

Elbphilharmonie | »Greatest Hits«: Composer Slam - Duration: 5:20.I'm Simon Kluth and
on 3 November I'll be hosting the Composer Slam
at the Greatest Hits Festival at Kampnagel.
The idea for Composer Slam came to me
when I attended my first poetry slam.
I was immediately impressed with the slam format.
I found it great that everyone can take part
and that the decision of who
the winner should be lies in the hands
of the audience only.
The composers present their works
on home-made musical instruments.
I don't even know what they look like.
I just know that a violin will be played.
A recorder too – perhaps there's been something haptic added on to it.
Home-made can also mean
that the sound has been – or will be – defamiliarised electronically.
At Composer Slam, there are no set limits.
And at this Composer Slam,
you can experience these instrument variations
in a completely new setting.
It works like this:
Each composer can present two works –
one in the first round, the other in the second round.
I randomly select a jury from the audience
and each jury member then holds up a score.
The composer
who receives the most points wins.
What is the prize? That's a surprise!
All I can say
is that the event should just be fun for everyone.
Last year I observed that the »Greatest Hits« festival
gives audiences a better understanding of contemporary music.
Besides all the concerts – there are two, three or even four taking place per day –
there's also a supporting programme and more.
The experience is very intense,
but as an audience member,
you can exchange opinions and thoughts with others
in a different way than at a »normal« classical music concert.
At a festival, you attend one concert together,
and then you decide to go to this other concert,
while your companion goes to another one.
The festival format is really great –
this intense experience and exchange of thoughts.
I have a trio with which I play contemporary music.
Whenever I perform contemporary music,
I feel like I'm doing something important for the genre of music.
As opposed to when I interpret Mozart or Brahms
I've been doing this for more than four years,
also in other locations than Kampnagel, like bars.
Some people find it really great
and share their thoughts with each other.
I think it's good that it polarises audiences
You need to just come by
and experience it for yourselves!

Are These Are the Richest People Who've Ever Lived? - Duration: 11:17.Assessing who the richest person to ever live was is a rather difficult task.
In some cases, the exact amount of wealth the person accumulated is unknown.
Secondly, it's hard to determine the proper exchange rate or the rate of inflation since
the person died, or was at the peak of his wealth.
Instead, most of these figures are based on the percentage of their nation's Gross Domestic
Product (GDP) that the individual personally owned.
Also, for some perspective, the richest person alive today is Bill Gates.
At the time of this article, he is worth $89.8 billion.
10.
Cornelius Vanderbilt – $185 billion
Born in Staten Island in May 1794, Cornelius Vanderbilt dropped out of school at the age
of 11 to help support his impoverished family.
As a child, he worked with his father, who was a farmer and a boatman.
When Vanderbilt was 16, using a small loan from his parents, he bought a two-mast sailing
vessel and started ferrying passengers on the Hudson River.
During the War of 1812, using a small fleet of boats, Vanderbilt delivered supplies to
government outposts.
He eventually sold all his boats and went to work with a steamship captain, where he
learned about steamships.
He then started his own steamship business and eventually started buying up railroads.
Vanderbilt was a ruthless businessman and a shrewd marketer who focused on undercutting
his competitors.
His business tactics made him one of the richest men to ever live.
At his peak, he had somewhere around $185 billion.
9.
Henry Ford – $200 billion
Henry Ford, the man who would go on to revolutionize the automobile industry and mass production,
was born in July 1863 to a prosperous family that owned a farm in Dearborn, Michigan.
When he was 16, he moved to nearby Detroit and took an apprenticeship as a machinist.
He then worked at several factories and on his family's farm before ending up at Edison
Illuminating Company.
Within two years, he was made chief engineer.
In 1896, Ford created the Quadricycle, which was a horseless carriage.
In 1899, he started the Henry Ford Detroit Automobile Company, which was later changed
to the Henry Ford Company.
However, he ended up leaving the business in 1902 after his partners became frustrated
by his desire to constantly improve on his design.
They, on the other hand, just wanted a finished product.
The Henry Ford Company then became the Cadillac Motor Car Company.
Ford started the Ford Motor Company in 1903.
The first car, called the Model A, was assembled a month later.
Only a few of them could be assembled every day and they were assembled from parts ordered
from other companies.
In October 1908, the Model T was introduced and changed the world.
To make them quickly, Ford utilized mass production techniques that are still common today, including
large plants, replaceable parts, and the moving assembly line.
The car was a massive success, and it started Ford on his way to enormous wealth.
At his peak, Ford had somewhere in the neighborhood of $200 billion.
8.
William the Conqueror – $229 billion
William was the illegitimate son of Robert I, duke of Normandy.
His father died in 1035, which made William, who was eight, the Duke of Normandy.
Amazingly, despite several attempts on his life, Williams survived into adulthood.
By 1064, he had taken over the neighboring provinces of Brittany and Maine.
In 1066, the King of England, Edward the Confessor, died.
Before his death, Edward told several people they would be the heir to his throne.
One of them was William and another was Edward's brother-in-law Harold Godwin.
On his deathbed, Edward named Godwin as his successor and he assumed the throne the next
day.
This angered William, so he decided to invade England.
The Norman Invasion of 1066 was one of the most pivotal events in English history and
it also made William the Conqueror a very wealthy man.
According to the website The Richest, William would have been worth $229 billion.
7.
Osman Ali Khan – $230 billion
Osman Ali Khan was the Nizam (ruler) of the State of Hyderabad.
His reign lasted from 1911 until 1948, when the state was annexed by India.
Khan made his wealth from royalties from mining diamonds in Hyderabad.
During the 18th century, it was the only state to supply diamonds.
Khan apparently owned 50 Rolls-Royces and he used a 185-carat diamond as a paperweight.
In 1937, he appeared on the cover of Time and they proclaimed him the richest man in
the world.
His net worth is believed to have been somewhere around $230 billion.
In his later years, Khan became reclusive and he died on February 24, 1967, at the age
of 81.
6.
Nikolai Alexandrovich Romanov – $300 billion
Born in May 1868, in Pushkin, Russia, Nikolai Alexandrovich Romanov became Emperor Nicholas
II following his father's death in May 1894.
Nicholas II was ill-prepared to become Tsar and he didn't want the position.
But, Nicholas firmly believed that his job was ordained by God.
And although he strongly believed in autocracy, he also establish an elected legislature.
Nicholas' reign as Tsar was marred with controversy starting from his coronation.
There was a stampede of people and hundreds died.
Nicholas II and his wife didn't know about the stampede and were seen smiling throughout
the day and into the evening.
Another major controversy was Bloody Sunday, which happened on January 22, 1905.
Thousands of workers were killed by Nicholas II's troops while they were peacefully protesting.
This led to more protests and more suppressions.
Then, during World War I, Russia suffered major military losses, food shortages, and
inflation.
Many people blamed Nicholas II for this.
As a result, he abdicated from the throne in March 1917 and was placed under house arrest.
The Bolsheviks, who were led by Vladimir Lenin, murdered Nicholas II along with his wife,
his five children and a handful of loyalists, sometime on the night of July 16 or the morning
of July 17, 1918.
Nicholas II's death marked the end of the Romanov dynasty after it had ruled Russia
for 300 years.
When he died, Nicholas II had a net worth of around $300 billion.
5.
John D. Rockefeller – $371 billion
John D. Rockefeller Sr. was born in New York in 1839.
At the age of 24, he started to invest in petroleum.
Rockefeller then went on to co-found the Standard Oil company and by 1880, it became not only
the leading oil company, but one of the biggest companies in the world.
At its peak, Standard Oil controlled 90% of America's oil production.
When Rockefeller died in 1937, The New York Times reported that his net worth, based on
his 1918 tax return, was $1.5 billion.
If you account for inflation, that is over $32 billion, which really isn't that much
compared to someone like Bill Gates.
So to really understand how much money Rockefeller had, it's important to compare his personal
wealth to the economy at the time.
Rockefeller's assets were 2% of the American GDP, so that would be like someone being worth
$371 billion today.
4.
Andrew Carnegie – $389 billion
Andrew Carnegie, who we're sure you know best as the guy Scrooge McDuck was likely
based on, was born in 1835 in Scotland.
His family immigrated to the United States when he was just a child and they settled
in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
His family was poor, but Carnegie worked hard throughout his whole life.
He founded Carnegie Steel in 1892 and it became one of the biggest producers of steel in the
world.
Carnegie sold the company to banker and financier J.P. Morgan in 1901.
In the deal, Carnegie made $480 million.
At the time, that was about 2.1 percent of America's GDP.
That means for someone to have the same amount of money now, it would be around $210 billion.
After Morgan purchased the company, it became United States Steel Corporation and the business
is still in operation today.
Carnegie gave away most of his wealth, making him one of the greatest philanthropist in
history.
He died in August 1911.
3.
Jakob Fugger – $400 billion
Born in Augsburg, Germany, in March 1459, Jakob Fugger's family ran a successful textile
business and Fugger grew up rich.
As an adult, he made some savvy loans to people like the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I and
he financially backed Charles V in his rise to the King of Spain.
Because he backed the right men, Fugger was given lucrative mining contracts.
He then flooded the markets with these metals and drove many of his competitors out of business,
allowing him to be the dominant metal supplier in the world at the time.
Fugger eventually became so wealthy that he was called Jakob the Rich.
As for exactly how rich Fugger was, he had 2% of Europe's GDP at the time, which would
be around $400 billion today.
We know what you're thinking – Jakob was one rich Fugger.
2.
Musa Keita – $428 billion
Musa Keita was the Mansa (Sultan) of the African country of Mali from 1312-1337 and trying
to determine how rich he was is straight up mind-boggling.
What is known is that his kingdom was the biggest producer of gold in the world, when
gold was highly in demand.
Rudolph Ware, an associate professor of history at the University of Michigan, says that,
"There are pictures of him holding a scepter of gold on a throne of gold holding a cup
of gold with a golden crown on his head.
Imagine as much gold as you think a human being could possess and double it, that's
what all the accounts are trying to communicate."
With his gold, Musa amassed an army that was 200,000 men strong.
When he traveled, he spent money lavishly.
There is a story of him going to Mecca, and his spending causing a currency crisis in
Egypt.
The best estimates for his wealth are somewhere around $426 billion.
.
1.
Augustus Caesar $4.75 trillion
Gaius Octavius was the great-nephew and adopted son of Julius Caesar.
When Caesar was assassinated in 43 BC, Octavius was named his heir.
After he defeated Antony and Cleopatra at the Battle of Actium, he became ruler of Rome.
He replaced the republic with a monarchy and he took the name Augustus.
Augustus was the first Emperor of Rome and he was also one of their greatest leaders.
He brought the country to newfound prosperity, which also brought Augustus a tremendous amount
of wealth.
His empire was one of the richest in history, and his personal wealth was about one-fifth
of the entire empire.
At one point, he personally owned the country of Egypt, which is a pretty impressive real
estate portfolio.
Augustus's wealth, at its peak, would have been about $4.75 trillion, making him arguably
the richest man who ever lived.
He died in August 14 AD, at the age
of 75.
