A német tudósokon és mérnökökön nem múlt a náci Németország sikere a második világháborúban. Olyan zseniális, korukat megelőző alkotások fűződnek a nevükhöz, melyek a szó szoros és átvitt értelmében is túlélték a háborút, és amelyekre számos más ország fejlesztői kiindulásai alapként tekintettek az következő évtizedekben. A Nat Geo hatrészes technikatörténeti sorozata a legizgalmasabb fejlesztéseket mutatja be, ezek a háborúban betöltött szerepét is elénk tárva.
At Seishou Academy, girls don’t just wield guns— they ARE guns! In a school where every girl is a lethal weapon gunning for the chance to get their own personal serviceman, more than a few shots are about to be fired between Funko and her classmates. And when their newly recruited human instructor, Genkoku, arrives, he’ll have to learn how to deal with this living arsenal of high caliber cuties if he doesn’t want to get caught in the crossfire of their hair trigger tempers!
A series that explains the history and technology of weapons at war.
HMS Queen Elizabeth is the largest and most advanced warship ever constructed in Britain. As she embarks on gruelling sea trials we see ship and crew pushed to breaking point.
The drama series, directed by Ilmar Raag, tells the story of young conscripts who suddenly find themselves in a completely new environment. Alongside the hardships of a new life, military service gives young people a chance to see the world from a fresh perspective and make bold decisions. Interestingly, it is this kind of 'closed' system that often offers people the freedom to take on new challenges.
This is a unique, mind-blowing series of 52 individual war documentaries. Each volume provides an original program packed with combat action and expert in-depth commentary and features spectacular footage from 20th Century's key conflicts.
These unorthodox military innovations were not developed by chance, each was constructed to solve a tactical or strategic problem, such as overcoming Nazi defences on D-Day, mounting a surprise attack over water, or safely moving an agent back and forth across enemy lines. The US smart bomb piloted by live pigeons, a jet pack used by flying soldiers, an incendiary bombing program that used bats released from aircraft, and a giant Catherine Wheel are all covered in this fascinating series. World’s Weirdest Weapons explores never before seen weapons and introduces viewers to the extraordinary people that invented these ingenious devices.
