Two man turret, no radio until late '42/43, four speed transmission that was rough as guts, no turret cupola for the commander until later models, insufficient armour by late '42, earlier models had atrocious ammunition, models at the start of the invasion often only had ammo for the MG (albeit not a fault with the tank itself), no turret basket, fuel stored in crew compartment alongside the ammunition

Even my TI-83 from highschool is ancient nowadays

2018-07-02 03:33:47 UTC  

and a few other things

2018-07-02 03:34:00 UTC  

I programmed on those

2018-07-02 03:34:07 UTC  

Kids paid me to write them

2018-07-02 03:34:12 UTC  

TI-86 was much better

2018-07-02 03:34:20 UTC  

Also, Panzer IV > T-34. Fite me communists

2018-07-02 03:34:26 UTC  

TI89 is banned for tests

2018-07-02 03:34:32 UTC  

most of these issues were actually noted in pre-war evaluation and were about to be remedied, but the breakout of the war forced them to shelve it

2018-07-02 03:34:52 UTC  

Eventually the T-44 rolled around which is very similar to what they were looking to change the 34 into

2018-07-02 03:35:10 UTC  

And then it was so secret they didn't deploy it until a decade after the war

2018-07-02 03:35:57 UTC  

I hate World of Tanks >:c

2018-07-02 03:35:58 UTC  

You had the T-43 which was kinda-sorta what they were looking at replacing it with

Fun fact, blacks have higher bone density

2018-07-02 03:36:11 UTC  

and lower chance of melanoma

2018-07-02 03:36:33 UTC  

oh god

2018-07-02 03:37:03 UTC  

T-43's evolution was sad

2018-07-02 03:37:12 UTC  

@Reaps
Guess it's time to smoke the neighbor

2018-07-02 03:37:33 UTC  

I remember someone arguing on youtube with The Chieftan that the Panzer IV was superior to the M4

2018-07-02 03:37:38 UTC  

The T-34's armor was great at first until the 75mm L/43 arrived on the scene. So they developed a plan to uparmor the hull but maintain the small gun

2018-07-02 03:37:41 UTC  

I WON'T MOVE TO WAR THUNDER!!!!

2018-07-02 03:37:42 UTC  

I would have funded Volkswagon to make the supreme tank.

2018-07-02 03:37:51 UTC  

But by the time it was ready, they already had the IS in the field and wanted a bigger gun for the T-34

2018-07-02 03:37:53 UTC  

And after expending that argument, and after calling everyone morons etc, they said their favourite tank was the T-34/85

2018-07-02 03:37:56 UTC  

and I'm like wut

2018-07-02 03:38:01 UTC  
2018-07-02 03:38:10 UTC  

Don’t be a bitch

2018-07-02 03:38:15 UTC  

So how about that T-60?

2018-07-02 03:38:24 UTC  

Don't be a sexy bitch

2018-07-02 03:38:25 UTC  

Ok you nerds (except somnio) keep talking about your little boom boom games, i'm gonna go play Witcher

2018-07-02 03:38:47 UTC  

Long 75s P4s didn't really start appearing until the end of 42, so the Sovs had quite the advantage for much longer than people seem to appreciate

2018-07-02 03:39:15 UTC  

Yup, though Zaloga notes that their early tactics of spoonfeeding T-34 units mitigated much of that at first

2018-07-02 03:39:18 UTC  

@Deleted User bye faggot

2018-07-02 03:39:28 UTC

2018-07-02 03:39:40 UTC

2018-07-02 03:39:54 UTC
