| I'm still waiting for an answer to the question I posed 3 or 4 months ago. I asked which tank has better off--road performance. Is it the German Panther Mark V or the American M4A3 Sherman?? I'm still waiting.

| I'm going to go with the Panther. Later design date and all that. Lowe profile, meaning lower center of gravity, etc...... _________________

| You answered the question correctly. None of the reasons (later design date, lower center of gravity) you mentioned had anything to do with it. But you answered the question correctly. Now I can move on.

| Nope.
Now you've mentioned 3 reasons that don't matter at all to the question of off--road capabilities. You're on a roll.

| Narrower treads? Poor ground clearance?
I see no reason to stop the roll now......
I can probably list a whole TON of things that have little to nothing to do with the offroad failure of the M4, but would make perfect sense. _________________

And I did Good one. If you really want me to (another way to say that is......if it won't bore you to death to have to read it--my explanation) I can list them and comment/explain tomorrow night from work. You up to it?? There are 3 main reasons why tanks have good performance off--road. In that last post of yours above......you're getting warmer with one of them, with one of your 2 points. Warmer, not correct. The other reason given does not matter. Off to beddie--bye--boo--sleepy--bye--time. Later dudes and dudettes.

No, no, no. Don't get me wrong Exo. The off-road performance of the M4A1, M4A2, M4A3 series (Sherman) was not really bad at all. It was not a failure in any sense of the term. In North Africa it had some of the best off--road capability of any tank around, in that theater of action, in the sand. It was phenomenal in the loose sand of North Africa. Problem is......there is not much sand in Europe. All I am saying is that it was lousy off--road compared to the German Panther. The Panther was an almost perfect match of the 3 off--road capabilities that matter most of the time, in most terrain.

| So spill, already.....enough with the crypticness. Teach us, oh sage historian of the ages!
As an aside, maneuverability is all good and well, but I'll take the ability to detect and do away with the enemy at range over maneuverability any day of the week.... _________________

| I would guess it has something to do with keeping the maximum amount of contact between tread surface and the terrain, but what do I know? _________________ It's almost like religion is what happens when the Spirit has left the building. - Bono |
