Say that to the T-34s that were invincible to everything except 88's when they were introduced to Jerry.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

Really? I thought the T-34's sloping armor just bounced of a few shots, not practically acted as a forcefield  ???. Im just curious, not trying to be mean  :P

When the T-34 came out most of german tanks were inferior, the germans had only  few panzers that could penetrate its armour.

Panther wasn't developed yet. P4 needed upgunning before it could properly face T-34s.

Yea that was the problem those tanks warent avaible at the time the t-34 was causing havoc on the eastern front. So the germans launched a stopgap plan to upgunn/modify most of their obsolete panzers to TankDestroyers  ( Mobile anti tank guns Marders as they were called)  They managed to hold out with that until late 1942 or so - when the panther and tiger came to take care of the problem.

Yea the marders were developed because the German army needed more mobile and more powerful antitank options, which was very necessary when the t-34 came out.

and heres a couple more pix from me.
