Wut? Ww2 wasn't coh2. The T34 was very formidable.
its design looked great on paper however despite what is said the Christie suspension had a lot of issues there was a reason why the united states turned it down. like actually achieving the max speed on a t34 was impossible due to the fact that Christie suspension made the shifter impossible to shift into its last gear. (unless you have super human strength.) i think they fixed it with t3485s not sure. this meant that speeds were not near as high as numbers suggest.
not to mention the metal in Russia was of poor quality leading to armor not actually being what it was on paper. also they loved to place ammo everywhere on the tank that penetrated would find ammo.
if you want to chat further pm or find another thread i don't want to drag this thread into to the ocean.
back on top a very touching picture nice find.
