This is a question that gets bounced around only every once in a while.
Which combative nations during WWII constructed their tanks with the best materials/metals for their armor plate or castings? .. I have seen in some writings that German armor of the same thickness was up to 30% more effective than say Russian armor. Anyone out there know about that?. Or have their own breakdown as to what nations they know or believe constructed their tanks using better materials/metals than others?
Thanks!
