I'd say it goes to show how quickly the losses could be made up. The industrial might of the USA just kept pumping them out.
What about crews though........... |
Wasn't the loss rate of tanks in all armies extremely high, regardless of type? Tanks were like a magnet for enemy fire. I'd rather take my chances as an infantryman.
Regarding earlier comments on the Firefly, were there any other modifications to the tank, or did it have the same problem with lighting up as the standard Sherman when hit?
