amen...3 Tigers knocked out 54 Russian T-34's in the Battle of Kursk ....18-1 ratio....it took 10 Shermans to knock out one Tiger or Panther.....They had to gang up on one to get him....rounds bounced off the armor like tennis balls....the American tankers called the Sherman the "Bronson Lighter" because it always "lit up" the first time it was struck.....Tigers and Panthers had BMW engines in them, with a very complicated and sophisticated drive gear and transfer case....which became the problem at the outset.....we don't even want to start comparing artillery...Krupp works had no equal.....Charters probably drives one of those Ruskie cars with a 2 cycle lawn mower engine(because they're easy to repair) and cardboard firewall.....makes the YUGO look like a LEXUS.....
