Combine that cost with the American industrial advantage and it's clear to see how the allies nullified the threat of German tanks by simply flooding battlefields with a lot of Shermans.
could produce four Shermans for the cost of one German Tiger tank. and the Colt 1911A1, 2011, and similar type pistols from other manufacturers. The one glaring weakness that German tanks had, however, proved to be their undoing. Examples of a full-size pistol include (but are not limited to) such weapons as the Glock 17, 21, 22, 34, and 41 the HK USP Tactical, P30L, VP9 Tactical, HK45, and HK45 Tactical the SIG P226, P320 XFULL, and P320 M17 the FNH FNX-4, FNS-9 Longslide, FN-509 Tactical the Beretta M9/92F (and all variants thereof), APX Target, and APX Combat the S&W M&P 2.0 CORE Pro Series 5 in. They had better armor, more powerful guns and were better in almost every way. On a tank-by-tank basis, a German tank could shred an American Sherman tank. There are few weapons types you can say that about.įascinating thing about German tanks. The tank has remained viable on the battlefield simply because the design has been refined, improved and updated over the years.
Throw in more powerful engines and you've got lighter, faster and stronger tanks with more powerful guns thrown in for good measure. Those went from, essentially, thick sheets of metal to being made out a combination of materials that are regarded as military secrets (the exact "recipe" is the military secret, but the materials are somewhat common).Īrmor has become so efficient and improved that you can actually have great armor that is considerably lighter than it was for tanks during the height of World War II. One very cool topic when it comes to tanks is armor.
