Talking Top 5 worst tanks.

I want to start a thread on the top 5 worst tanks. So I want to know what you all think on this. I think the Sherman is a candidate? And the Stuart, do not say I don"t like anything American like they said on another website, I love our infantry weapons. I have a few others.

Probably best if you list the ones you're thinking of WH to push the discussion on. I know very little about tanks, can identify a few, so will not be commenting.

Can I ask a question WH ? ... when you ask for opinions - what do you do with the information ? ....

Well usualy I ask questions when I either want to know what people think on this, or I want to know something on that subject. I lock the info into my brain and when I do not know something I just remember it.

Well I do things the opposite to you .... because I like to learn about things ... read all I can about it ... then ask questions .... because then I don't feel and look like I'm a dufuss and plus I'm able to have a discussion about the things I've already learned !

The British Valentine was one with no good points - it is said that when we sent some to Russia on Lend-Lease, they couldn't believe that we used them for anything other than training.

To be honest, the tanks were not Britain's strong point in WW2. They were either slow, or lightly-armoured, or (as in the case of the Valentine) both.
