The Germans also suffered from some chance mistakes. The British were able to capture a magnetic mine that failed to arm, allowing them to develop countermeasures. Without this, they would have starved. Late into the war, the focused too much with large, useless tanks like the Maus and later Entwicklung series tanks. Had they focused their efforts more on medium tanks, like the E50, they would have won the ground war.
@Dreambish: The Germans suffered from short sighted, obsessed leaders, which I am also grateful for as well. They were stupid, and that stupidity cost them the war.
@Dreambish: Yes I know what the tank's names translate to. Also, I know that not all of the German Wunder Weapons were failures. The V-2 Buzz Bomber, one of the first guided rockets, the first jet powered warplanes, and a cannon that could fire a shell from 77 miles away from Paris and hit it. If Hitler had introduced these weapons when they were ready, or introduced them earlier, he might actually have won the war.
Also Nazi Germany had mostly medium yield accurate tactical bombers, so trying to carpet-bomb London was rather boorish. If they were used as intended (attacking shipping and industrial targets+military assets) Britain would've lost less civilians but would've fared worse in the war.
You know that Maus and Ratte are Mouse and Rat in German? The engineers had a sense of humour. And yes, Hitler pretty messed up Germany's war effort, though i'm kind of grateful. I like Germans (am of German heritage) but not when they rule the world and obsessively wipe out large swathes of the human genetic pool.
a large explosion, OR, easier, you could just fry the electronics
I think there is a passage of one killing starships by burrowing through the crust of the planet with its guns and popping up randomly to shoot at them.
The canon of this tank needs lots of fuel per shot where it going to keep all that?
Currently, My smallest fighter is exactly this size.
My standard fighter is 1/2 size of this.
