PzKpfw V Panther V.S. M4A4 Sherman VC Firefly

Instructions

Instructions: Press 1 to fire the Sherman's cannon, it takes 7 seconds to load, press 2 to fire the Panther's cannon, it takes 6.5 seconds to reload. You can keep having the tanks fire at each other until one of them gets destroyed (in your case, it can be any tank, since I'm not saying that one tank is better than the other). The M4A4 Sherman VC Firefly, one of the tanks in the vast British and American joint army's (Allied Forces) best medium tanks with the strongest gun of them all, encounters a PzKpfw V Panther Ausf. G in Normandy, one of the Ostheer (East Army) veteran units that fought extensively on the frozen Soviet steppes in the far eastern front ever since its first deployment at the Battle of Kursk. The Sherman Firefly deals enormous amounts of damage with its gun and can engage heavier armored targets than itself. But the Panther has sloped armor up to 100mm thick to counter the rounds, despite the Sherman Firefly able to deal up to 171mm worth of penetration with an APCR shell at close range. History of the Sherman Firefly: After the American M4 Sherman tanks given to Britain through the Lend-Lease act became obsolete to the German Panther tanks, the plans for an upgraded and heavily modified Sherman tank became reality. The goal was to arm the British 76mm (3-inch) QF 17-pdr AT gun onto the turret of the Sherman for extra firepower. The tank also needed an upgraded turret and were mostly converted on M4A4 Sherman tanks. Because of the improvement of the frontal armor up to 90mm thick, some Sherman Firefly tanks didn't arm a hull machine gun. Extra storage for its shells are also another reason. Travelling up to 40 km/h with a crew of 4 to 5, as well as the acceptable weight of 35 tons, this tank is the must-have for every experienced Allied veteran tank commander! History of the Panther Tank: The Soviet T-34/76 Model 1942 tanks were wreaking havoc on the already battered remnants of whatever Panzer IIIs or IVs that remained of the German East Army. After studying the armor of various captured T-34 models, the German High Command decided to build their own version of the T-34, one that will be made on the chassis of their already successful Tiger tank. This tank must have up to at least over 80mm armor and must be able to counter the T-34s with its gun, and the production cost must be low enough and affordable for the army. After the prototype testing was completed successfully, the tank became known as the "Panther", one of Germany's finest premier medium tanks during WWII. Production soared and skyrocketed the Panzer III - one of Germany's most mass-produced tanks and which its production soon came at its heels. The Panther production line came only second to the 9,000 built Panzer IV tanks (of all variants and models, except the assault guns and the other conversions). The tank had up to 5 crew, as well as speeds up to 46 km/h on road, weighing 45 tons, battle-ready. The Panther soon became a legend and nearly every Allied tank learned to feared it, as most ways to defeat a Panther tank is to flank it or hit it from the rear, where the armor is weaker and manageable by most shots. Nearly no Allied medium tank (especially the standard British Cromwell tanks and American M4A3 Sherman tanks) could penetrate its 100mm front armor at the time, and not even the 90mm gun on the M26 Pershing heavy tank and the M36 Jackson tank destroyer could manage it unless at point-blank range.
