What's the scariest tank?

The scariest tank is subjective but often points to Germany's Tiger I (WWII) for its terrifying impact and firepower, making Allied soldiers call any enemy tank a "Tiger," while modern contenders include the M1A2 Abrams (US) and Leopard 2A7 (Germany) for their unmatched tech and combat records, plus unique designs like the saucer-shaped Object 279 for sheer intimidation.

What is the scariest tank in history?

The scariest tank ever is widely considered to be Germany's Tiger I (PzKpfw VI) from World War II, due to its terrifying reputation, formidable 88mm gun, and near-impenetrable frontal armor that psychologically crushed Allied troops, even though it was mechanically complex and expensive. Other contenders for "scariest" include the even heavier Tiger II (King Tiger) for its extreme firepower and armor and, in modern times, advanced Main Battle Tanks (MBTs) like the Leopard 2A7 or futuristic concepts.

Was the T-34 a bad tank?

The T-34 wasn't inherently "bad," but it was a deeply flawed, yet strategically vital, tank that combined revolutionary design with severe production and usability issues, making it a paradoxical mix of brilliant concept and poor execution, especially early on. Its strengths were its sloped armor, speed, and powerful gun, which initially stunned the Germans, but weaknesses included a cramped, poorly visioned two-man turret, difficult transmission, unreliable engine, and poor quality control leading to brittle steel and spalling.

Was the E50 real?

The E 50 is a German tier 9 medium tank. In 1945 the E 50 was conceived as a standard medium tank of the Panzerwaffe to replace the Panther and Panther II. It existed only in blueprints. Following the Panther series of tanks, the E-50 was designed as a support tank.

Is T-34 a true story?

No, the movie T-34 is not a true story, but a highly fictionalized, patriotic action film loosely inspired by real Soviet tank feats and the legendary status of the T-34 tank, blending elements of fantasy with historical inspiration for a thrilling, if historically inaccurate, war movie about an impossible escape. While the T-34 tank itself was real and crucial, the specific plot of POWs escaping in a modified tank from a Nazi concentration camp is pure Hollywood fiction, says Wikipedia, this Reddit thread and another Reddit thread.

What was the worst tank ever built?

There's no single "worst tank ever," but contenders often cited for disastrous design, poor performance, or impracticality include New Zealand's improvised Bob Semple tank (meme-level armor, unstable), Britain's A38 Valiant (slow, weak gun, dangerous construction), Germany's heavy but flawed Panzer Maus or early multi-turreted Neubaufahrzeug, and Japan's undergunned, underarmored Type 95 Ha-Go. The Soviet T-35 (land battleship) and the failed US anti-aircraft M247 Sergeant York also rank high for being overly complex or technologically disastrous.

How many T34s still exist?

Hundreds of T-34 tanks, primarily the later T-34-85 model, still exist globally in museums, as monuments, in private collections, and even in limited service for training or coastal defense in countries like Vietnam, Cuba, Guinea, and North Korea, though exact numbers are hard to pin down. Out of over 57,000 produced, many were lost, but a significant number survived the war and post-war periods, becoming iconic symbols of World War II.

Could at 34 destroy a tiger?

Yes, a T-34 (especially the later T-34/85 model) could destroy a German Tiger I tank, but it needed to get close (around 500 meters or closer for reliable frontal hits) or flank it, as the Tiger's superior 88mm gun outranged the T-34 in open engagements, though the T-34's tough sloping armor and ability to hit weaker spots like tracks or the turret ring offered tactical chances for a kill or immobilization.

Can a T-72 destroy an Abrams?

Yes, a T-72 can destroy an M1 Abrams, especially modern variants like the T-72B3 hitting vulnerable spots (turret ring, sides, rear) or using advanced ammo, as seen in Ukraine; however, it's difficult due to the Abrams' superior frontal armor, optics, and combined arms support, making it an underdog but not impossible for a well-placed shot from a capable crew.

What tank went 104 mph?

A "104 mph tank" refers to the experimental Christie M1931 tank, a prototype developed by American inventor Walter Christie, which achieved a record-setting speed of 104 mph (167 km/h) during a 1931 public demonstration, making it the fastest tank ever recorded, largely due to its innovative "convertible" suspension that allowed it to run on wheels for high speed on roads. While modern tanks are much heavier and slower, the Christie design influenced many later tanks, especially the Soviet BT series.

Is T-90 better than Abrams?

Neither the T-90 nor the M1 Abrams is definitively "better"; they excel in different areas, with the Abrams generally offering superior crew protection, advanced sensors, and mobility (especially reverse speed), while the T-90 boasts a lower profile, cost-effectiveness, and the unique ability to fire anti-tank missiles from its main gun, making it a formidable but distinct opponent. The "better" tank depends heavily on specific battlefield roles, crew training, and support systems, with Abrams often favored for high-intensity, well-supported engagements, and the T-90 for its versatility and lower logistical footprint.

Why was the T-35 tank a failure?

Often called a "land battleship", it was the only five-turreted heavy tank in the world to reach production, but proved to be slow and mechanically unreliable. Most of the T-35 tanks still operational at the time of Operation Barbarossa were lost due to mechanical failure rather than enemy action.

What is the most feared tank ever?

The German Tiger I tank of World War II is widely considered the most feared tank ever due to its legendary reputation, thick frontal armor, and devastating 88mm gun that could destroy Allied tanks from over a mile away, creating immense psychological terror despite its mechanical unreliability and high cost. Its mere appearance often caused panic, cementing its status as a symbol of German military might and engineering prowess, even if it wasn't always the most effective tank overall.

Which tank was better, Tiger or Panther?

Neither the Tiger nor the Panther was definitively "better"; they were designed for different roles, but the Panther was generally a superior overall design due to its balanced mix of strong sloped frontal armor, powerful gun, good mobility, and easier production, making it more versatile, while the Tiger I offered superior raw firepower and frontal thickness but suffered from poor mobility, mechanical complexity, and high cost, excelling as a dedicated heavy breakthrough tank. The Panther's sloped armor gave it better effective protection than the Tiger's thicker, vertical plates, and its faster, wider tracks improved off-road performance, though Tigers had better side armor and intimidation factor, according to this Facebook post and this Quora post.

It was a design of an armored fighting vehicle which, as far as we know, was never actually built, even as a prototype. The concept was very forward thinking for its time as it was essentially a tank, designed in the 15h century. The idea may seem simple now but at the time it was very innovative.
