sherman 90mm... dat superior tech doe . . . now its turret can fly farther from the bigger bullets

super hellcat... LOL !!!

xp72: hello USA, ever heard of a jet ? RIP. lockheed exploding star to the rescue XD

t29 = jagdtiger food. wouldve been getting ammo racked by tiger III ausf C mit. 10.5cm KwK 46 L/100 by the time it got in service

t34 and t30 = nice bigheads bro now try driving up a hill. and those guns are trash. also enjoy being post war about 2 years in T30s case.

pretty funny you list the bigheads as their development was spurred by USA witnessing the superiority of the king tiger in battle. the irony is yummy in my tummy :^)

i mean just look at this.... 1942 USA heavy tank

latest

wat is it? a happy meals toy...? actually no it is a loaf of bread

1942 german heavy tank

i rest my case
I was gonna write a real reply until I saw you mention the physically impossible tank aka the tiger 10.5cm kwk46. You can believe what you want but I prefer to stick to reality.

That german tank looks like a wet cardboard box.
And it has a worse gun than the m6.

You do realize that the meme where it couldn't fit in the turret was a myth? the problem could be fixed by making the ammo rack in the turret smaller, or just remove it all together ( crews on the tiger 2 where instructed to not load ammo in the turret....)

Yes let's remove the turret ammo rack so the reload rate goes up to 1 minute per shot. Sounds like you've been playing too much warthunder.

? the crews where instructed to not load ammo into turret?
Makes no sense to tell a tank crew that. If a shell lands inside the turret to the point that it would hit the ammo rack then the people in the turret are already dead. Then the question of why even install a turret rack if you aren't gonna use it comes up. That steel could have been used somewhere else. The purpose of the turret rack was to ease loading in combat. Removing the rounds from it only prevents detonation in the rare occurrence (like extremely rare) that the turret was frontally penetrated. Removing the rounds also adds to the loading time of the main gun because now rounds have to be grabbed from outside of the loaders immediate reach. This is without considering that the tiger crews knew that there were many more Sherman's or t34s than there were German tanks so stocking up on a couple extra rounds might go a long way in the right situation.

And the issue with the 10.5cm tiger was that they couldn't fit a second loader and using one loader to load that gun would mean a rof worse than the IS2.
