    Duel at Dessau

    Do you actually read what I write in my posts? I claimed the front galcis was never penetrated in combat. Nor did it ever split or fall apart. Where is the actual EVIDENCE for this Soviet propaganda nonsense??There isn't even one picture of Tiger II's cracking or splitting. There ARE pictures...

    Duel at Dessau

    Even if it was a poorly trained crew without experience, but after ground training they were always capable of starting first round hits at over 1,000 meters anyway. Good trained crews could actually start first round killing at 1,500 meters under combat conditions. range_____ in...

    Duel at Dessau

    The King Tiger that got 5 frontal hits near Paris in August 1944? The driver (Walter Jung) got out and we have the pic of him looking at the hits on the front plate. None penetrated and he wasn't even wounded by spalling or the force of the hits. Look at the damn picture and tell me what you...

    Best Tank of WW2

    No, that's quite not true. I think all the time during ww2 German tank designers KNEW that numbers are the key for vitory. Blitzkrieg for example was a warfare in which Germans had only weak tanks compared to the heavy french Char B-1 tanks but the Germans won anyway because they had alot of...

    Best Tank of WW2

    Oh, ok thanks for clearing this up. the A-20 prototype confused me a litttle. As you see I'm just a human who makes mistakes sometimes too. I'll edit it in my previous posts, hope you don't mind. To improve my own statement, T34-76 as well as T34-85 had both 45mm front armor thickness at 60°...

    Best Tank of WW2

    Edited: T34-85's turret was protected by 90mm frontal armor (mantled) and the chassis had 45mm front armor thickness, as well as T34-76. Second, Panther had 40mm side/rear armor. thanks for correction btw. Edited: All claimed kills of Tiger battalions were only affected by Tiegr I and Tiger...

    Best Tank of WW2

    What do you mean? I'm not hiding behind any fence, I'm stating some real facts. The Matilda was even slower than the King Tiger. And the King Tiger was almost 50 tons HEAVIER! Matilda had a very weak gun, not very effective at long ranges. Yes it could probably deal with Panzer III and IV. It...

    Best Tank of WW2

    Final combat statistics and overall result which was the most effective and most successful tank on the battlefield (this has nothing to do with my own opinion, it's all about real facts and historical researches): Best tanks during WW2 by combat history and in terms of kills per loss are only...

    Best Tank of WW2

    Oh please. All tanks in the poll have the exact same features, the T34 is not the only tank during WW2 with sloped armor, a good main armamament and speed. The most notable disadvantage is that the most built T34 variant (T34-76) dididn't even have a radio until 1944. Thus, T34 crews couldn't...

    Duel at Dessau

    Hey GrauGeist, it IS bullshit when they claim far fetched propaganda to try to show their most powerful tank beat the German's most powerful tank. Some people might be fooled by it but not those who are knowledgeable. It would have been a one million to one chance that the ONLY Super Pershing in...

    Duel at Dessau

    Ok, lets see now. The rarest tank in the entire ETO (only 1 Super Pershing saw action in Europe) 'magically' and 'coincidentally' manages to find and best one of the rarest German tanks of that time......in an area NOWHERE NEAR where any surviving King Tiger units are operating? Far fetched...
