Why did the Germans stop building Tiger tanks after World War II?
Because they would still be fantastic on the battlefield in the 1950s. And even if they were outdated, there would already have been viable successors on paper, like the E75.
As far as I know, the trigger was the assassination of the Austro-Hungarian emperor by a Serbian. How did the World War develop, and why was Germany to blame?
Did the Wehrmacht/Luftwaffe throw condoms at London during the Nazi era? I've heard or read about it, but I can't find any sources on this. I hope someone can give me an answer. Kind regards
Hello, I would need your opinion on this question with reasons. Thank you in advance for your answers.
Ludwig, an old German name, is once again popular among intellectuals and academics. Noah is Semitic and ancient but popular among an internationally oriented society.
and/or fiction)? So which developments, themes, biographies of people, countries/cultures and ages/epochs?
Hey people, The question is there and I mean this one: Kind regards Tim
A technically outdated and damage-prone, too slow, unfavorable, undermotorized vehicle with a cannon which is too weak after the 2nd WK should have been built? Never ever.
You could have driven and replaced engine after World War II. And can take a better 105 mm good
His armoring was already too weak and extremely unfavourable at that time.
You should have done that with the panther, and the French did that. But why would Germany urgently need a tank after 1945?
Although the French did not reconstruct the Panther, they used it further and developed its cannon and used it in the AMX-13.
The Bundeswehr was founded in 1955. 8 years later, Leopard 1 was hired.
There the sogennate tiger was already out of date, except that he was too heavy and underengined anyway. The E75 was unauthorized.
Why was the E75 Unfug?
Too hard and too slow. The concept of heavy tanks was buried quite quickly.
It is far more sensible to have tanks that have a greater speed and range, can drive over bridges and be transported by trains. To this end, of course, there is a loss, a tank that gets stuck.
They were too heavy….
Go to wheel loads.
Fully loaded with 32T
Chain armor so at 60T
Because of load distribution
Small vehicles Mraps somewhere at around 20T maximum
Because it was forbidden to them and all armaments were destroyed.
There was also scarcity in everything.
What kind of idea do you have from Germany 1945 to 49?
That was a poor country in ruins whose status as a nation was questionable.
The Russians wanted to degrade us to an agricultural state.
Only the marshal plan saved us and then our own diligence.
Because they were not grandios on the battlefield, too slow, too heavy, too impractical, too susceptible, too much effort etc.
Even other armies have slowed down heavy panzers, the tiger would be just too old and that Germany did not even have the factories for it was the next why one put on foreign panzer first.
The IS series is also with the heavy tanks?
Jup is he, and just like other heavy pancers, was no longer used for a very long time or much less
For example, there were no German army from 45-55!
