In this book Steven J Zaloga offers a fascinating comparison of the combat performance of the two most important tanks involved in the crucial fighting of 1944, the Sherman and the Panther. Examining the design and development of both tanks, Zaloga notes the obvious superiority that the Panther had over the Sherman and how the highly engineered German tank was eventually beaten back, not necessarily by the improvements made to the Sherman, but rather by the superior numbers of tanks that the Allies were able to put into the field.
Putting the reader into the heart of this battle between quality and quantity Zaloga examines the tactical intricacies of the battles between these two rivals. Using a compelling account of the ferocious fighting in the Ardennes region to explain the successes and failures of each tank he also highlights the fact that a tank can only be as good as its crew, weighing up the impact of low morale, high cost and mediocre crew training on the Panthers superiority. Packed with full-colour battlescenes, technical drawings, photographs, digital gunsight views, extracts from crew training manuals and real combat reports, this book brings to life the titanic battles between the Sherman and the Panther.
2016已读21。原版已读03。Osprey的战地对决系列,对比分析了“豹”式坦克和“谢尔曼”式坦克的技术特征,成员操作以及在阿登战役中的战地表现。作者观点比较中立,承认“豹”式在技术上的优势,但“谢尔曼”在产量,成员训练,可靠性,装甲质量等方面更胜一筹,而且作为防守方的“谢尔曼”拥有更好的射击机会,这一切都决定了“豹”式纸面上的优势难以转化为战场上的胜利。毕竟战争打到最后还是拼资源储备和人员素养,书中引用的“豹”式照片基本都是残骸,因为这款坦克的战地表现确实大大低于预期,生不逢时,可悲可叹。
评分全书金句:Perfection is the enemy of excellence. 仅仅用1944年圣诞夜Freyneux的战斗来印证二战坦克战胜负取决于先敌开火甚于技术优势这一论点略显单薄,多点战例就好了。
