Actually i've been trying to find out more about this unit Pz Abt zbv 66 they were apparently raized for the assualt on Malta, initially based in Italy they ended up remaining there when the Operation against Malta was cancelled, Aparently they were equipped with T-34's,KvI's & KvII's, but until i can track down a definative info source on this unit i can not say for certian if Shermans fought against this unitHC8604 wrote:Did the Americans or British fight against any German captured Russian tanks? I have heard of some shermans going against a T34. How about a Bt series tank? (CCIV has one in the game against Americans)
Well unless it was in Korea then i guess you partially answered your own question!HC8604 wrote: I have heard of some shermans going against a T34.
