Totally Tanked podcast

John and Rob

It's a podcast about tanks. Do you want to listen to people talking about tanks? If so this is the podcast for you! World Wars, Cold Wars, modern tanks, we cover them all while drinking a lot of beer. Be warned though, we grapple with the politics behind the tanks, the economics, the industrial policies. Tanks are intensely political objects in both their creation and their use. So if you just want to hear dudes banging on about lethality, well, we've got dudes banging on anyway.

    83 - Challenger 3 - The best Britain can do...

    Britain is trying to build a new tank. But they're doing it with a gun that entered service in the 1970s and re-tread hulls that ended production a quarter century ago. And they're building fewer than 150, which for a completely orphan fleet is a "courageous" approach.

    T-70 - Soviet Mediocrity!

    With over 8,000 produced the T-70 should not be an obscure tank. With an extremely unusual profile it should be easy to ID. And yet it's not exactly at the top of anyone's list, but we are going to try and shed some light on this Soviet light tank.

    80 - Multi-Turret Tanks - Too Much of a Good Thing

    When all the world was bright and new and small boys were allowed to design tanks a lot of concepts were created for lumbering landships lurching slowly across the battlefield while delivering justice and vengeance to the enemy from a series varied weaponry in multiple turrets. More boring designs eventually proved more useful, but in this episode we explore this inter-war golden era where tanks sprouted turrets like mushrooms after rain.

    79 - Leopard 2 - The Tank of the Free World

    Failed joint procurement programs somehow led to the one tank that a cashed up country making its own decisions would buy. With the production lines open again it's time to revisit the Leopard 2!

    78 - SU76M - The Swamp Fighter

    The Soviets decided they didn't have a need for light tanks. And instead built a very useful light vehicle with a big gun. And they built a lot of them. And this is their story.
