SWISS ARMS INDUSTRIES: 1968 Vintage Film (w/ EN Subs)

Швейцарское оружие очень качественное....но ...и очень дорогое.😢😂

Why does the guy on the thumbnail look like Vladmir Lenin???🤨🤨🤨

tripping to the music

I own a stg 57 bayonet assembled in Waffenfabrik Bern in 1982 with a Wenger made and marked blade. I love how stylish and durable Swiss gear is too, also being the proud owner of 2 bread bags, one vinyl covered one made in 1981 and a salt and pepper one made in 1965.

красивое видео спасибо

SWISS ARMS INDUSTRIE = Neutrality

only swiss made !

The backing music was the Swiss most deadly weapon.

Man they were hurting for music, really hurting. Lol

A runway with a huge mountain at the end, you better have 4 boosters, nice footage

Im confused, i cant see a lot of comments by Dale, but when i click "show comment" , its empty... however i can see comments from everybody else.... guys i think the "Nachrichtendienst" is after dale, quick we need to save him! /jk - i assume YT fucked up again somehow :D

I've been to the Thun Castle 🏰 and the
Thundesee and then to Grindelwald.

Hope the day comes with german subtitles or the german versions of all your films😃

Great presentation, thanks

Great upload and subtitling! Thanks a lot. Enjoy the quality and narrative, good things even today.

The motorcycle rider 57 seconds in is really going all out 😂🤣

Love it, plz upload more. Danke!

I think the thing to take from this is they maximised the spending of Swiss Taxation in Switzerland !

Unlike what goes on, world wide, today.

Great video.

Very interesting watch, thanks for taking the time to translate it Dale!

Молодцы швейцарцы. В 21 веке у них всё ещё лучше.Умеют не только шоколад и часы делать.)

Another wicked soundtrack! Interesting vid :) thanks for the subtitles!

Oh but the horror! It looks like the Swiss were using napalm.

Various non-Swiss equipment shown in the film:
US Equipment: Browning M2 0.50 cal MG, M40 Recoilless Rifle, M109 SP howitzer, M113 APC family
French Equip: Mirage III fighters, Alouette III heliocopters, AMX-13 light tanks
British: Vampire, Venom, & Hunter fighter-bombers, Centurion MBTs & Bridgelayers, 105mm L7 tank guns, Bloodhound SAM system (missiles & radar)

Nice video! Always cool to see late 1960s computers and manufacturing processes. My first job out of college (in 1987) was as a civilian employee (Federal civil service) of the US Army supporting tank and artillery ammo. Ah the memories...

When all the modern jets, tanks, armored vehicles, advances Radars and communications fail... Remember Switzerland still has homing pigeons!

Excellent ! Quand la main de l'homme savait encore façonner la matière ! Belle époque.

Thank you for sharing yet more interesting footage with us

Interesting to watch — and relaxing! I can’t help but notice how well everything seems to be made. This being Switzerland, I probably shouldn’t be surprised. 🙂🇨🇭

Fascinating look at manufacture and trialling of military gear. I wonder how much of this industry remains in Switzerland? I use a B&T APC .223 carbine for my home defence rifle. The fit and finish of Swiss made arms are still amazing.

Great stuff! Thanks for posting it and for the sub titles as well.

To watch, just for the 70' music.

I was not prepared for that music, how on earth does it work so well‽

Good job.

Those videos are super interesting to me, because my dad served during that time in the army... Hearing stories from him (mountain greandier) is one thing, but seeing stuff or how its made , is a totally different thing. Also its an interesting time capsule into a time i heard a lot about but didnt witness myself.

Ok yea and im a electormechanical engineer... there is also a certain "professional" interest n those machines of this specific video.

Or in other words: Läck bobi so geil!

Obviously no others than switzertüsch are involved nothing new in fact

These Swiss folks sure do know how to pick music for their films.

Molto interessante.

I remember seeing this in my RS.
However I am not sure it is a 1968 film.
In it I see some equipment which was handed out to the troops a bit later.
Specifically 1971 helmets and a 1974 12cm mortar being spray painted.
Although the helmet was possibly some test run, I think the mortar was a bit early to be in industrial production.

Love the music.

Gracias gran video! 👍👍👍

Worth it just for the crazy jazz intro music!

Thank you Dale!

It's a unique material, thank you for posting!

Its kind of sad seeing all the infrastructure for creation used for maintenance instead. Stagnation leading to crumbling. The results of the frantic era of destruction focusing on the abomination Army95 was a mistake.

wonderful, in my language and i have my great-granderfather who was a chef during ww2 and the brother of my grandmother was in the army during the time of this reportage

RATO fondue!

The tank that is being developed was a project calle Panzer 74. it got canceled but it would have been similar to the Chieftain in many ways, maybe a bit more mobile though
it was supposedto use the same gun as the Chieftain for example
