Soviet tanks have a tendency to detonate killing the crew and writing the tank off from WW2 through to the Gulf Wars. Late model Sherman's had wet ammo racks and room to store the ammo somewhat safely. The T-34 for example had a fairly low rate of fire relative to German tanks in the war. This means it's often difficult and uncomfortable for the crews to operate in combat conditions. The T-34 had very sloped armor while the T55, T62, 64, 72 and 80 are all kinda small. Pretty much every single Soviet tank has had massive problems that you can't really fix. However on the field of battle they gave generally always had horrific losses from WW2 through to the Gulf War. On paper Soviets tanks have always looked great through to when the west developed things such as the Leopard 2/Challenger/Abrams. ![]()
