Forgotten Prototypes: Soviet War Machines | Full Documentary

This is a 4 hour Compilation of nearly every secret Soviet era engineering project that nearly / almost saw the light of day. In this full length documentary series compiled from past videos, we will explore the top secret designs that have been revealed in recent decades. These stories give us a glimpse into the world of some of the top minds of their day. 3d animations have been custom made to recreate and bring these insane, or boundary pushing injections to life on your screen.

We hope that you enjoy the show, and can sit back to relax and take in over 4 hours of history, engineering, imagination, inspiration, determination, and a little bit of 3d magic.

I'm happy mega compilations are becoming popular again

Kamov being absolutely insane with their designs is something I love about them.

Thank you for the amount of detail, and editing you put into your videos, you really make unique interesting videos and I hope you get 1 million cause you deserve it.

The projects on paper yesterday become the project dialed in on a program and no mock up needed. Crazy how far we have ckme in some areas and sit still in stagnation on others. Awesome video nick as always

VVP6 would make an incredible firefighter. Get water anywhere. With increase in major forest fires yearly. Russia should revisit the design...

The Karmov design bureau had quite the knack for developing the unique and practical helo's. The Alligator is probably the finest attack helicopter in the world, and it has another unique feature of giving the crew ejection seats as well.

I was born in 82 tail end of the cold war so I'm fascinated with soviet stuff ussr may have not had our resources but what their engineers achieved with less is amazing there was certainly no lack of talent in the Soviet union

FOUR HOURS OF FOUND AND EXPLAINED?!?!

YES, PLEASE!!! 😂❤

[BasedStreetRacer]

"ALMOST" should be the motto of the USSR.

[VLADIMIRISH]

Some of them are reliable to be build nowadays

I still can believe this channel doesn't have a few million subscribers.

[gwoody]

Man the CG modeling in these are really good.

[BigDog]

I love every one of your videos man, please keep it up, it makes my day every time you release one

[SpinyAnt]

Thank you for such a detailed and information full commentary !!!
After subjecting myself to many exhaustive commentaries, over many years, by far, your marvellous, intricate, and informative account of a chronological listing of Soviet designs, with aspirations of dominating the dastardly Americans at the same game, making the Soviet's World leaders, the hope being that the World would completely become awash with Communism, bringing peace to the World, eliminating ALL antagonisms between individuals and nations !!!
Wasn't that ALL that we were wanting, and wasn't this the mechanism we needed ???

I love how the US accidentally created what was essentially a more practical Hell Reaper in the form of the XF-84H Thunderscreech - a plane whose propeller created constant sonic booms and reportedly gave ground crews seizures with its noise. Ironically, it was scrapped because it was too loud and did NOT fly well.

Who else was here during the accidental premiere of this video on May 6th 11:45PM PST?

[josephpiskac]

Very interesting and extremely well done!

[WhoWantsToKnow]

51:29 Yeah... I'm pretty sure that 705 lbs is NOT the equivalent of 320 tonnes

[adamfrazer]

49:30 that's the most effort/thought I've seen put into encouraging new subs 🤘

[martingreen]

Really love these videos it was my dream to fly at fighter but failed the physical with a dodgy eardrum 😢 but this fulfills that void and heart. Thanks
