Speaking of Kursk, I find it interesting to mention that the Kursk region (1943) was the scene of the largest tank battle in the history of mankind, involving about 6000 tanks, 2,000,000 soldiers and about 4000 airplanes

Any tank lovers? What’s your favorite tank?

Personally from playing world of tanks the Jagdpanther 2 I am fascinated with

If we are talking WW2 I’m biased I would pick either the Tiger I oder the Panther even tho they aren’t perfect (not enough horsepower and weak transmissions) the reputation they earned together with their guns and look make them unique to me. Honorable mentions would be the M4A3E8 Sherman, T-34-85 and the Stug III

Interesting according to the Bovington tank museum the Stug III was the deadliest tank of the Second World War with around 30,000 tanks destroyed and cheap the build. Although the effectiveness came from it being in used in the defense

cheap to build seems like a good tank quality to have judging from how the soviets + shermans worked

In war, quantity takes precedence over quality - of course it has to work reliably, but it is more important to have more than the enemy. WW1 shows this very well in the war of attrition: as long as you have more soldiers than the enemy and can supply them with weapons and keep their morale up, you win in the long term.
