olive drab wrote: Sorry Bishop the comments about the Kingtigers and jagdtigers don't bear up to historical fact. Poor power to weight ratios, most were lost in the last months of the war due to mechanical breakdown and were either blown up by their crews or left abandoned, let alone their fuel consumption. or the inability of them to move due to the weight on Bridges, Peiper in the Ardennes refused to us KTs due to their inability to manoeuvre.
The allies had or were developing AT rounds to deal with the mainstays (Tigers and panthers) US HVAT 76mm round could and did destroy Panthers and Tiger 1s at standard operational ranges, while the US 90mm was superior to the 88mm and accounted for a number of German tanks front on.
The British Centurion with Sabot ammunition would have dealt to any late war German armour had the war stretched on while in the east the Soviet JS series in shear weight of numbers already showed the KT to be out of date, even the profile of the KT showed it to be out of date by 1945.
