That’s what Allied tankers all thought.....NOT!

Germans lost a production battle. But tank to tank, the Tiger, Tiger 2, and Panther were more than match for any allied tank. Too complicated in design I’ll agree. Too call them overrated doesn’t square with performance tank to tank like at Kursk.

That's the way our air force is going. The best planes one-on-one in the world.

But one-on-five or one-on-ten could be a very different story.

Performance at Kursk? The Germans were wiped out at Kursk.
