Brewster B-239 (F2A-1) - Finland's War

This battle was from some time ago, early in 1.5.x's life cycle. I had a great evening flighted up with erdminger and dmarsha9; this battle was among the gems we chalked up that night.

When I was reviewing replays I had set aside I noted that this one featured mostly aircraft that participated in both the Winter War and the Continuation War, with dmarsha9 and myself flying the Sky Pearls and erdminger's Fat Wulf could certainly substitute for one of those big obsolete Dorniers that Finland had a handful of. The enemy team's planes that make appearances of any length on camera are all I-16s, so it works out perfectly with the setting for a Russo-Finnish battle.

I immediately recalled this song in Finnish and worked it into the video, I think it suits the character of the plane well and after listening to it several times I'm rather fond of the song itself.

Warning, the video does contain portrayal of a historically accurate paint scheme on my Brewster F2A-1 to put it into the guise of a Finnish B-239. As such this skin includes the Hakaristi, the roundel symbol used by the Finnish Air Force until after WWII. Traditionally a symbol of luck and good fortune the hakaristi was dropped from use due to its resemblance to the hated and banned swastika of the NSDAP. It is presented here for historical and educational reasons.

This will be the only video I produce this week due to my ensuing hunt for the Blohm und Voss Ha.137 BeeVee. The game is afoot!

Good hunting!

Leopard 2A6

The Finnish Army originally bought 124 2A4s from surplus German stocks in 2003. Of these, 12 were converted into bridge-laying and combat engineering tanks and 12 were disassembled for use as spares, leaving 100 operational tanks. In 2009, the Finnish Army bought 15 more German surplus Leopard 2A4s for spare parts of existing fleet, bringing the total number of Finnish Leopard 2A4 tanks to 139. On 16 January 2014, Finland agreed with the Netherlands to purchase 100 used Leopard 2A6NL tanks for approximately €200 million. In 2015, most of the Leopard 2A4s were moved into reserve, with some converted into Marksman AA vehicles and mine clearing tanks.

The Leopard 2 is a main battle tank developed by Krauss-Maffei in the 1970s for the West German Army. The tank first entered service in 1979 and succeeded the earlier Leopard 1 as the main battle tank of the German Army. It is armed with a 120 mm smoothbore cannon, and is powered by a V-12 twin-turbo diesel engine. Various versions have served in the armed forces of Germany and 12 other European countries, as well as several non-European nations, including Canada, Chile, Indonesia, Singapore, and Turkey. The Leopard 2 was used in Kosovo with the German Army, and has seen action in Afghanistan with the Danish and Canadian contributions to the International Security Assistance Force, as well as also seeing action in Syria with the Turkish Armed Forces against ISIS and the YPG.

PAROLA'S FINNISH TANK MUSEUM

Oc. These are all my photos and there are tanks from Russia, Germany, Great Britain, France, Cheque Republic and Finland.

The swastikas represented on the tanks are because the tanks were captured or bought by the Finnish army in WW2. Finland wasn't a nazi Puppet State, but they were allies with Germany in the Continuous war (1941-1944).

I made this video for educational purposes only. No memes this time.

Does Finland need its Swastikas?

Finland has officially used the ancient symbol of the swastika on monuments, awards and decorations for nearly a century. Today, it is still prominently displayed on military flags and insignia.

Does holding onto this tradition have benefits that outweigh risks to the nation’s image?

When I first arrived in Finland I saw a military parade with these particular insignia being flown. I was scared for my life,” relates Keegan Elmer, an American Labour Researcher resident in Helsinki

Neighbors Upset Over Front Yard Swastika, Seek County's Help

El Sobrante, Calif. neighbors want to know what can be done about the swastika design in one homeowner's yard. It makes me feel really, really bad, said neighbor Jan Hall. What it does is it dredges up what's happening in the United States today. That kind of thing is not hidden anymore... it's out there. I mean it's out there in his front yard.

WW2 City of Helsinki Capital of Finland Decorated with Nazi Germany Flags 1939 1944 WW2

City of Helsinki Capital of Finland Decorated with Nazi Germany Flags WW2 1939 -1944. Город Хельсинки, столица Финляндии, украшен нацистскими знамёнами со свастикой в годы Второй мировой войны. WW2 1939-1944. редкое видео HD rare video HD. На улицах вывешены государственные флаги Финляндии и нацистские знамёна со свастикой в знак союзнических отношений Финляндии и нацистской Германии во время Второй мировой войны. Возможно, что это - специальное оформление какого-нибудь государственного праздника или, например, визита Адольфа Гитлера или Германа Геринга в Финляндию, а такие визиты были, для переговоров об участии Финляндии в войне на Восточном фронте в качестве военного союзника на стороне нацистской Германии.

Визит Адольфа Гитлера в 1942 году в Финляндию. Гитлер и Маннергейм, военные союзники - военные преступники.

Профашистский режим в Финляндии в период Второй мировой войны и Великой Отечественной войны в 1941 - 1944 годах Маннергейм

Adolf Hitler's vizit to Finland on the 4-th of June 1942. Adolf Hitler and Marshal Carl Gustav Mannerheim - military allies and war criminals.. rare video редкое видео HD

Переговоры Адольфа Гитлера с Карлом Густавом Маннергеймом, командующим финской армии, де-факто сражавшейся на стороне Германии после того, как 22 июня 1941 года Германия напала на Советский Союз.

В июне 1941 год финские войска перешли границу с СССР и предприняли попытку самого широкого наступления в сторону Ленинграда и, в конце концов, дошли до предыдущей государственной границы Финляндией, как самовольно отрезал им в 1918 году Ленин.

Вместе с немецкими войсками финны захватили большую часть Карелии, включая столицу Карелии Петрозаводск и даже попытались переименовать этот город на финский манер, дали русско-карельскому городу финское название.

Оккупация столицы Карелии, берегов Ладожского и Онежского озер финскими войсками длилась до 1944 года и была прекращена мощным наступлением советской армии.

Только благодаря усилиям советского посла в Швеции Коллонтай в Стокгольме и премьер-министр Великобритании Черчилля напрямую, Финляндия в экстренном порядке заключила со Сталиным перемирие, признав своё поражение и согласившись на репарации, вышла из двусмысленной войны -- освободительно-грабительской, фактически войны на стороне Германии и войны против СССР, синхронной и согласованной войной фашистской Германии и Финляндии против СССР на севере Восточного фронта.

Если бы не маневры советской и английской дипломатии в 1944 году, тогда Карл Густав Маннергейм сидел бы на скамье подсудимых на Нюрнбергском процессе или другом международном военном трибунале, идентичном Нюрнбергу, именно за конкретные военные нападения на советские города и посёлки и систематическое убийство и порабощение населения финской армией на территории СССР.

В культуре каждого европейского народа есть целый слой художественных произведений, воспевающих антифашизм и антифашистов. Таких книг и кинофильмов, например, воспевающих антифашистское сопротивление, много в культуре Италии, Германии, Голландии, Польши, Чехии, Франции, США. Назовите знаменитую книгу финского писателя или хоть один фильм финских кинематографистов, которые воспевали бы подвиги антифашистов в Финляндии во время коллаборационизма маршала Маннергейма с Гитлером. Сами финны не могут назвать в своей культуре ничего выдающегося антифашистского.

При условии более мощной группировки немецкой армии, Маннергейм хотел взять Ленинград силами финской армии, Было наступление финской армии до Зеленогорска и до Петрозаводска, а также вокруг Ладожского озера, почти до Новой Ладоги, где финны были остановлены в жестоких боях, в том числе благодаря мужеству моряков Ладожской флотилии.

финнам не удалось намертво замкнуть кольцо голода и блокады вокруг Ленинграда, когда финны наступали со стороны Ладожского озера.

Финская военная авиация с большой опознавательной свастикой участвовала в бомбёжках на стороне фашистской Германии в боях за Ленинград.

Именно финны активно участвовали в минировании Финского залива и установили гигантскую металлическую цепь и мины вокруг неё, перегородившую Финский залив поперёк, чтобы советские военные суда не могли в море бороться с фашистами.

Финские добровольцы активно занимались грабежом Ленинградской области . Маннергейм раскрывал эти свои планы в переписке с Черчилем в 1941 году прямым текстом. Финляндия перед Второй мировой войной шла курсом формирования фашистского милитаризованного антикоммунистического государства, готового поучаствовать в разделе Советского Союза. И были планы в случае поражения СССР присоединить к Финляндии Карелию, включая Петрозаводск и весь восточный берег Ладожского озера. Слава Богу, что финский фашизм был разгромлен в 1940-м году, то есть накануне, до 22 июня 1941 года, заранее. Иначе осенью и зимой 1941 года финские, эстонские, латышские и литовские нацистские эсесовские дивизии не мёрзли бы под Москвой, И финские фашисты Маннергейма поучаствовали бы в разграблении Санкт-Петербурга - Ленинграда.

The Finnish Armour Museum spring / May Day event at Parola.

The Tank Museum is a military historical museum with the main task to gather, save, investigate and exhibit the history of the Finnish armoured and anti-tank defence troops.A central theme, furthermore, is to inform about the use and technical development of the armoured fighting vehicles in the Army of independent Finland, beginning from the first Renault F.T. Modèle 1917 tanks, bought in 1919. The Tank Museum is also paying honours to the Finnish soldier. It offers a historical display of the skills and success of the Finnish armoured troops - especially of the wartime tank division - against a superior enemy in the battles of our last wars.

World War II Tank Combat Show In Full [4K] - Soviet T-34 Offensive vs Finnish Defence

[4K UHD] World War II combat show (taistelunäytös) at the Finnish Armoured Division 75 years anniversary / Panssaridivisioona 75 vuotta. T-34/76 (still in the 1944 Soviet camouflage colours) represents the attacking Soviet army. In the defender's side you will see a captured T-34/85 in Finnish camouflage and markings as well as a anti-tank gun preparing for defence.
Unfortunately, as the old tanks are kind of old, the attacking T-34 broke down in middle of attack. The gear stick actually broke in half and the tank couldn't continue advancing. You can hear a bit of laughter when the we hear the news.

The Finnish Supreme headquarters ordered the foundation of an armoured division on 28 June 1942 and the actual foundation was on 30 June 1942. The division consisted of the newly formed Armoured Brigade and the old (1st) Jaeger Brigade. The Cavalry Brigade was also part of the division until January 1943. The division artillery consisted of the 14th Heavy Artillery Battalion. The division commander was Major General Ruben Lagus. During most of the war, the division was located at Petrozavodsk, but in the spring of 1944 it was moved to the Karelian Isthmus to form the reserve of the headquarters.
The Armoured Division fought in the crucial battles of 1944 and helped to contain the Soviet offensive.
The 75 years anniversary took place on 28.6. with parade, march past, inspection of troops and both modern and war time armored and motorized equipment parading past the audience and honored guests.
