M26 tank weight - 41 tons which makes it more of a medium than a heavy tank - Actually, that’s what happened historically in the US Army
T26E1 tank weight - 49 tons
tank weight King Tiger (H) - 69,8 !
Ho-Ri calculated weight 65 - I emphasize because this paper tank never build
and now let’s look at the areas of green armor penetration zones
suddenly it turns out that they are comparable
Shell characteristics
So tell me it’s fair when one side is given a tank that didn’t exist, the other one is superior in most parameters, and the others are not - like M26 Pershing?
therefore, for balance and parity of heavy tanks in the US, it is necessary to introduce the T32
Well my issue with the Jadgtiger is the fact it’s literally impervious in a frontal engagement. I’d like to at least have a hope at killing the darn thing if I’m gonna be forced to fight it
Well first of all a BR6 would be requiered and knowing DF would reléase the E series and
IS-3 and some kind of wierd… Stuff for Japan…
And this would continue over and over… Since US tanks were not to special as the German or soviet ones and probably Even japanese ones SO unless we start could war era we can’t expect a “KT” for americans
That thing’s got a sliver that can be penned I believe. Plus the upcoming Super Pershing should make short work of it. Not even APCR coming out of a T29 can pen the flat part of a Jadgtiger’s giant face however the frick that works
Any gun above 105mm has uncomfortably long reload limiting infantry support potential.
Superpershing is the superior tank because it’s reload time should be the same as the Pershing not IS-2 or worse.
if the german side is that unskilled you shouldn’t have problem with killing KT right ?
are we playing the same game ? how many solution you have to kill a KT ? Don’t have much plane for that ?
why no one talking about the same problem with the jumbo ? because thoses tanks are well armored front and just need to flank it’s funny how us main want to pen all tanks ez in the front. so they should give all BR V rank 300 mm pen so no one as prob ? Just pathetic .
we can’t follow a logic like that german were persuaded that the heavier is better. URSS and USA as show us the contrary with their respective Firefly, M4 with a 76 mm and T34-85 those 3 are medium tank made for killing heavy tank even frontally
i’m not talking about the pen of the jumbo or something i’m speacking of frontal armor effectivness and KT has 80 mm armor side for 76 mm in jumbo not so much difference right ?
they really took an airsoft sight model ? if yes it’s a little sad must admit
and again - American tanks use wet ammunition stowage + instead in chemical composition APBC used Ammnium picrate
Other names: ammonium trinitrophenolate, explosive substance D and dunnite (in military use in the USA). Chemical formula C6H2(NO2)3ONH4, molecular weight 246.14. Nitrogen content 22.77%. Oxygen balance with oxidation to CO2: -52%. Two forms: stable yellow and metastable red. Obtained by the neutralization reaction in an aqueous solution of picric acid with ammonia in the form of a gas or aqueous solution. Ammonium picrate is one of the first high explosives that began to be used in the 19th century for loading ammunition, the name dunnite was received from the surname of US Army Major Dunn, who proposed using it in shells. Under the name Explosive D (explosive substance D) it was and is widely used in the USA
not that agree because I find that all gun tanks are way less powerfull than normally bugged HE are still here it’s the worst for the IS-2 and KV-2 and light tank like stuart wich have 37 mm gun if i’m not mistaken feel less usefull than the grenade rifle
