- Shortages of all sorts forced the Germans to simplify as much as possible. #OTD in 1944 a 2nd prototype Jagdpanzer 38 Starr was fitted with a rigidly mounted gun. This was the last vehicle of this type since firing the gun damaged the chassis. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII
- The VK 30.02 (M) was chosen to become Germany's next medium tank #OTD in 1942. Unlike Daimler-Benz's design, it actually met requirements set in the tender, although the final product was considerably heavier and more complex than originally envisioned. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII
- The issue of producing the T-44 tank was raised #OTD in 1941. At the weight of just 30 tons, it had the firepower and armour of a heavy tank. Only a model was ever built, but the requirements were reused for a new project in the summer of 1942. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII

- #OTD in 1941 an order was given to equip T-34 tanks with applique armour. Two prototypes were built before the project was abandoned. There would be two more successful attempts to improve the tank's armour, but both were also limited in scope. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII
- The British were very eager to keep as many Sherman tanks as possible, offering just about anything else to the USSR. #OTD in 1943 the Red Army rejected Britain's offer of Centaur tanks citing their wildly unsatisfactory Liberty engine. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII
- #OTD in 1943 a recommendation was given to build 250 Medium Tanks T23. The tank's progressive electric transmission also proved to be its downfall, as it was easy to use but also very difficult to service. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII
- #OTD in 1942 the cost of a KV-1S tank was established. One fully equipped tank cost 295,000 rubles, considerably less than the 523,000 rubles a KV-1 tank cost a year prior. #tanks #history #WW2 #WWII
