1. Beancounting logic: During the conquest of Denmark, the Danish military suffered 16 casualties and inflicted 200+ on the Germans.
Ergo, the Danish military is 'superior' to the German. Silly, right?
So the Danish military is 'qualitatively' superior; that they had no ability to conduct offensive operations and got totally defeated is not even considered.
As far as I know it was Germans: 200 KIA and WIA vs Denmark: 36 KIA and WIA. Also it was an part of opertation Operation Weserübung, which K/D favors the Germans.
The German panzer divisions lost their offensive edge at this point even if they conducted offensive operations with local superiority; they were incapable of penetrating soviet units and local reserves into the operational rear even if they outnumbered and outgunned the soviets in the local sector.
"Germans outnumberd and outgunned" This was rarely the case. And what would be the sense of doing so? Pushing into a small section and then getting cut off your other forces, and getting encircled and destroyed ? Even if Germans won at a section of the fornt it was better to move them to support sections of the front that were under presure because of the numerical superiority of the allies, then to rush them deep into enemy lines and to lose them.
This 'superior numbers' has been the German general's excuse for bad strategy, failed operations, failed doctrine and organization after 1942. Population and equipment numbers alone do not win battles, let alone wars. It's about strategy and systems design. They could not counter the fact that the allies would quickly eventually build armies as good as them and then better.
I would say that superior organistion until late of the war allowed them to hold back the allies with their superior numbers and supplys, overall germans pushed thier effective use of tanks to the maximum considering their supplys. Overall I would like to see an example of smarter/more effective system to use their tanks employed by the Soviets. Besides relying on brute for ce of superior numbers.
According to you Germans had superior quality only in 1939/1940/1941. Then you say the Soviets had superior quality couldnt get a K/D ratio in their favor when advancing like the Germans did, also why did it took them so long to beat them?
They could not counter the fact that the allies would quickly eventually outproduce and better supply thier armies.
