Shermans vs T-34s

[whdonnelly]

One possibiliy for the T-34s reputation could be the opposition. The T-34 faced a lot of the earlier German and Italian models, (PzKfw 2,Pz 35t, Pz 38, etc)that the Sherman never got to meet. The T-34 outclassed all these in armor, weapon, and mobility.
By the Korean War the T-34 and Sherman were both a little long in the tooth, but effective against infantry.
