The Legend of Kursk: If the Germans had the "Artifact" 99A tank, would history be rewritten?
Speaking of which, the Battle of Kursk, which is known as the turning point of the Soviet-German war, is really thrilling! Recently, there has been a heated discussion on the Internet: if the German army suddenly obtained 45 ultra-modern 99A tanks, would the wheel of history be pushed astray by this mysterious force?
Let's first take a look at the general situation of this battle. In 1943, on the battlefield of Kursk, the Soviet Red Army and the German army fought fiercely, tanks and planes were all on the rise, and the German army was finally defeated.
Now, let's talk about this bold idea. The 99A tank is the pride of our China, with strong firepower and strong protection. But you say, by airdropping these 45 "artifacts" to Kursk, the Germans will be able to turn the tables?
To be honest, it's a real hanging. If you think, those thousands of tanks are scurrying around on the battlefield, and if you throw these 45 "artifacts" into it, it's like throwing 45 grains of rice into the sea, and you can't even bubble up.
Besides, when it comes to war, it doesn't mean that you will win if you are well equipped. You have to look at strategy, look at tactics, look at people's hearts, and look at providence! At that time, the German army was already at the end of its power, and if you made tactical mistakes and had low morale, even if you equipped them with a spaceship, you might not be able to turn the tables.
Moreover, the T34 and KV1 of the USSR were not vegetarian either. There are still more people than you, how many T34s do you have to top a 99A? Also, the logistics on the Soviet side are endless, and your 45 tanks are gone if they are damaged, why do you fight with others to consume?
In the final analysis, these 45 99A tanks really can't change anything in a big scene like Kursk. When it comes to war, it still depends on comprehensive strength and fortune. This kind of one-sided "artifact" blessing is also why we can brag and chat about leisure after dinner.
History is history and cannot be changed. Let's cherish this time of peace! Don't keep trying to change the things of the past.
