Ah! Now I see it
Cranking out the T-34s
-
Oh an I forgot to mention that like all tanks, the JSII had weak side armor meaning a shot from Panzer IVJ or panzerfausts and panzerschrecks could knock out the tank. A well hidden AT 88 shouldn’t have much of a problem then.
-
thanks for clarifying the gun size.
-
Sure, no problem
-
I haven’t seen anyone mention the Panther II. It would have weighed about 50 tons but still retain the same speed and mobility of a Panther G. It would also possess many key features such as the steel-rimmed wheels, infra-red, and I believe an 88 mm gun.
-
does anyone have a link to info on the panther II?
-
Try this link!
-
thanks. it seems like it would of been just like a tiger tank though.

What can I say? The Panther is without a doubt the best medium tank of the war. And probably one of the really good tanks that the Germans mass produced. I think that 5000 Panthers of all types were built.

The T-34 was the strongest and most reliable of the war. As for the US and the UKs tanks, the reason why they had such small armour, was because they had to get thier first. The only was america and UK could get tanks to were the fighting was was by boat, so the smaller the tank, the more space. But the T-34s were american designed.

While it is true that the basic idea for the chasis was concieved by an american the T-34 was far from being designed by one. Many fine russian designers spent their talents on this fine tank.
