See my humor does come through on occasions.
kenny kenny,
At least you admit when you are trapped and you can't worm your way out by side stepping / avoiding questions. Thank you
Thank you se the Sherman:
TigerII - 69.8 tonnes
180mm frontal armor
80mm side armor
88 mm KwK 43 L/71 main gun
vs
Sherman - 35 tons
2.8 inches front armor
1.6 inches side armor
75mm main gun
Those are just two models of each kind. There is (sic) others we can compare (different models of all Shermans, Tigers, Tiger2 or Panther) if you want.
But you still have not answered my first question other than saying "Well I chose what and how I reply. I do not have an opinion on the matter."
Sounds more like you are afraid to answer it. Seems you want to dodge my question by trying to argue with me. Answer my question its really very simple.
In a 1 vs 1 battle Sherman vs Tiger/Panther/Tiger2 which would you choose? All other things being equal ie terrain etc. Which would you choose? This is not brain surgery, just a simple question. You are so eager to have your opinion heard why do you refuse to give it here? Which would you choose? Show us your expert opinion here. I have stated my choice, I would take the Panther/Tiger/Tiger2 any day over the Sherman. Which would you choose?
Mmmmm does posting your biased opinions on more than one forum make you an expert? I guess you have that one on me. Well done. Azzholes are just like opinions, everyone has one and they are free. See its easy to answer a person's question.
I am not about to list my collection of hundreds of books on WW2.
And before you start posting anymore pictures you may want to know that the Tiger Ausf.E has a 10 to 1 kill ratio - And don't start your "but Tiger crews overclaimed" theory, cause thats all it is, a theory
m kenny you need to calm down as well. With your 26 posts you have no right to come in here and insult members of the forum.
And don't start your "but Tiger crews overclaimed" theory, cause thats all it is, a theory. (I bet he's going to refer to an incident with Wittman now)
Having been called a fool and worse I believe the 'insulting' started somewhere else.
I really can not believe the problem. This is a simple thread where the usual stuff about German tanks being better than everything else is being posted. I join in, simply show a couple of examples where the super tanks came off second best and the roof falls in!
Why are some posters determined to make me 'admit' I am wrong?
Is it against the rules here to disagree?
I said nothing about tank A being better than tank B.
I never said the Tiger sucked.
I never said the Sherman was superior.
I never said the Cromwell was better.
I never gave any opinion on the value of any tank.
I deal in cold hard facts.
Opinions are not my forte.
If anyone says I am posting lies or falshood then expose me.
m kenny what I getting at here is this:
You keep posting comments about the uebertanks and pictures of them destroyed.
What does that prove? Nothing.
Answer these questions for me. Was the Sherman superior one on one against a Tiger?
Was the Churchill, Cromwell, or Cruisader superior to the Tiger one on one.
Which tank the Tiger or the Allied tanks had overall superior penetrating power with there cannons?
Which tank had the better armour overall?
I think you will find that the superior tanks were the German tanks from the Tiger and beyond.
What made the allies more superior was superior numbers. You throw 30 Shermans or whatever kind of allied tank you wish against 3 Tigers and who do you think is going to win? The allies ofcourse.
m kenny facts are facts and the facts are written in stone everywhere. The Tigers had superior stopping power and superior armour. The allies however used superior numbers and tactics to defeat the Tiger.
Not just Tiger crews. All German tankers overclaimed.
All tankers of every nationality overclaimed.
In Russia the practise was to apply a 33% to 50% reduction across the board to all German tank kill claims.
This was done by the Germans themselves.
Yet we still have those putting forward raw Unit CLAIMS as if they were CONFIRMED kills.
Wiitmann at Villers Bocage is the perfect example of overclaim as it can be conclusively shown that he did not destroy even half of the kills he was awarded.
If you can show otherwise then be my guest................
