You did not mention wether you are moving these beasts prior to firing,soviet accy really sucks bad when on the move.
I guess that may relate to how experience they had when fielded quickly without much training.
Since the SU on the move, has no turret,it lose any advantage against a Panther or Tiger setting still.
Going for a face off battle against the germans late war will cause you to lose many tanks
The upside is you can buy more in the later stage of WW2 at cheaper cost than Gerry,
Quanity vs quality if used right will prevail.
