In September 1944, German forces captured British PIAT anti-tank weapons during Operation Market Garden at Arnhem. What happened next shocked Wehrmacht engineers: this crude-looking weapon with a massive spring mechanism outperformed their own Panzerschreck in specific combat scenarios.
This video reveals the secret German technical assessment of the PIAT, including detailed testing reports, comparative trials, and the stunning conclusion that Britain's "primitive" spring-powered weapon was tactically superior for urban and defensive warfare. Discover why German soldiers remembered the PIAT decades after the war, how it worked without any rocket propellant, and why the spring mechanism was considered "insane but effective" by enemy engineers.
Based on declassified Wehrmacht documents, combat reports from Arnhem, and technical assessments from Waffenamt testing facilities. Every detail is historically accurate and sourced from primary military records.
