Re: Placing the Bell P39 Aircobra.

Keep believing in your phantasy dreams.

STuG G ground pressure is 13.5psi. A Panther G is 12.8psi so it to must have been restricted to just roads.

The Churchill I had a ground pressure of 13.1psi and you want us to believe that the Mk VII weighing 2600 more lbs and with a ground pressure of 14psi could travel cross-country when the StuG, and Panther couldn't. Never mind the up-armoured Churchill at 44,600lb even with a 24" track. Yah right!!! Naturally, the mechanical reliabilty of this super heavy tank would have been superb.

Was the turret to get extra armour? How about more side armour for flank attacks?

Should it be mentioned that the Soviets did not think highly of the Churchills they recieved.

You were the one making statements about using a dive bomber. So I want to know how did the Stuka do in its glory days with such targets since you are the one telling us great dive bombers are.

Sure the Vengeance from 10,000ft and up could tell with all the smoke and dust what to attack!!!
