| If I had to go to war in a tank, I'd want very good armour, whatever this did to the speed. The British experience with cruiser tanks such as the Crusader demonstrated that speed was no protection. A decent gun would be the next priority, and reliability probably more important than speed. On the whole I'd rather have gone into battle in a Tiger than, say a Sherman, the only problem being that Shermans would have outnumbered me. Probably the T34 was the best all-rounder.
There - thats all of Kyt's questions answered; I was hoping for an early night but I'm a sucker for these kind of questions! |
