Tanks of Fury...on the Smithsonian Channel...

Posted by Mark Man on December 11, 2014 at 16:43:24:
Delves into the different versions of the Sherman tanks and there improvements through the war...

The original versions had smaller projectiles and could not penetrate the 4" thick Tiger Tank armor...(Sherman's had 3" armor)...

The biggest advantage the Tigers had was 88 MM shells...they blew the crap out of the Sherman's...It was not until late in the war, when the US put on a new cannon with a larger projectile that could penetrate the Tigers armor ...

The tank in Fury was one with the bigger cannon...AND last known running Tiger tank was used in the movie for 1-day...the museum curators were on sight and they were a bunch of nervous nellies...

Next to the Sherman, (Bulldog)...the Tiger, (Mastiff)...it is a pretty easy decision which dog I would pick in that fight...

thanks
Mark
