The focus of the video is on the American M18, affectionately known as the Hellcat. Host Nicholas Moran gives us a quick overview of the capabilities of the timeless World War II armament. But don't call it a tank; it's a tank destroyer. Which is the WWII equivalent of a serial killer that only kills other serial killers.
The Hellcat has very little armor, enough to fend off any shrapnel and small munitions, but it is absolutely helpless against a direct tank shell strike. What it lacks in armor, it more than makes up for in having a very powerful cannon, a 76mm and for being the fastest piece of track in the entire war. The Hellcat as capable of breaking 50 mph, which is more than adequate when needing to outrun a lumbering Panzer.
2nd Behind The Scenes Video From Saints And Soldiers: The Void
Kudos to the filmmakers for getting the real, physical deal in creating the film for Saints And Soldiers: The Void. The film follows a Hellcat crew as it traverses a no man's land called The Void as they attempt to stop two German Panzers intent on disrupting the Allied supply lines in the waning days of the European campaign.
The film has a limited release on August 15 and expands nationwide on the 29. Check out the Wargaming BTS video below.
