Random French Engineer: You know the Maginot line?
Other Random French Engineer: Yeah, what about it?
Random French Engineer: Let's make it move... -
Simon: “Don’t use infantry to attack tanks.”
Actual military doctrine: Support your tanks with lots of infantry to protect them from enemy infantry. -
Tanks are actually quite vulnerable to infantry, which is why they're usually not deployed into urban areas and are usually supported by their own infantry whenever possible.

Simon: "Don't use infantry to assault a tank"
The Finnish in 1940: "So, anyway, we just sent in the infantry and destroyed all their tanks" -
Given the crew size, I’m surprised there wasnt a sous-chef.
-
"Now witness the firepower of this fully armed and operational battlestation"
-
Waiting for a video on the greatest tank ever built. The legendary Bob Semple.

"Don't use infantry to assault a tank"
Trained Infanteer here. Absolutely use infantry to assault a tank. So long as you equip them to do the job! -
Oddly enough infantry is the biggest threat to Armor. That's why the Saudis keep losing Abrams MBTs, and why urban warfare is so deadly for tanks and IFVs.

12:00 "Don't use infantry to assault a tank"
Korean War
PLA: "What I'm gonna do is called a pro gamer move" -
One of the coolest behemoths in Battlefield 1.
-
"Don't use infantry to assault a tank!" - Um, unsupported armor is INCREDIBLY vulnerable to infantry with any kind of anti-tank weapon.
-
9:20 Don't worry about HP these engines were massive, didnt have huge "RPM" power but stupid amount of torque ! No need to go fast, it needs to move !
-
11:48 Infantry is actually surprisingly effective against tanks, especially in tight urban areas
-
Sorry, but I always enjoy a good French joke, even if not entirely fair. Seems like there are always three ways to do something... The Right way, the Wrong way, and the French way.
-
Hey Simon, it's Torque, not Horse Power you want to be acknowledging when addressing the drive train capabilities of this beast.

"Don't use infantry to assault tanks"
RPG-7, Carl Gustav recoilless rifle, FGM-148 Javelin and 9M133 Kornet: "We would like to introduce ourselves". -
Its like that movie, Death Race. Just really really slow. Almost stationary if you dont pay attention.
-
12:00 Antitank missiles, Simon. The Javelin system is usually operated by a two-man team. You should make a Side Projects video about it.
