no, not the man with a silly moustache
75th Anniversary of the ending of WW2
Today is also the day that William Sherman entered Atlanta in 1864 during the Civil War
yes
Yes
Best tank of the war
Any fellow Iraq vets on this server?
it is the best no questions asked
you wouldn't want to disappear would you
eh
the sherman was much more reliable
T34 was ass what the fuck are you talking about
easier to get out of
The Russians HATED the T34
the sherman is the perfect neutral
the T-34 was revolutionary but was an awful tank in practice
cramped, awful protection for most of the early models
decent armor
75mm good anti tank/ anti infantry
76mm great anti tank
crew spacing was good
You could hit a T34 and the armor would break and fragment inside the crew compartment and kill everyone without a penetration
ok
any tank would do that
yeah but swarming makes it even less of a good tank
shermans could hold their own
more or less depending on the situation
If you have to use swarms to kill, it's not a good tank
the 75's could as well
why do u think the gun was chosen
what
76 could penetrate the front of a panther
and the 17pdr could go through the front of a tiger
it had great anti tank and in early war Africa was the best fielded tank thanks to its punchier 75
so could the 76mm
the 17pdr was cramped inside the 75mm turret
the 76mm lacked enough explosive mass to deal with infantry
