Скачать или смотреть Sixty Rockets in 15 Seconds: The Sherman Tank That Made German Soldiers Abandon Their Positions

July 1944, Normandy. A German officer who survived the Eastern Front watches in disbelief as a single American Sherman tank unleashes something he's never encountered: sixty rockets in fifteen seconds, creating devastation equivalent to an entire artillery battalion. The Sherman Calliope rocket tank represented everything about American industrial warfare that made German defeat inevitable—not superior tactics or braver soldiers, but the capacity to mount experimental weapons on ordinary tanks because their factories could afford such "experiments."

This is the story of how America transformed warfare into an industrial process, where innovation velocity and production abundance mattered more than tactical excellence. German forces brought courage and skill. Americans brought sixty-rocket launchers mounted on expendable medium tanks, unlimited ammunition, and the willingness to try crazy ideas that sometimes worked brilliantly.

From Normandy's hedgerows to the Battle of the Bulge to the Rhine crossing, Calliope tanks delivered psychological shock as devastating as their explosive payload, teaching German soldiers the harsh lesson that traditional military virtues alone couldn't overcome industrial mathematics.
