I disagree. The Germans had much better tanks and everything else. The reason why their tanks weren't effective in Russia was because the Germans didn't expect to be in Russia that long. They thought it was going to be quick and easy like the invasion of France and Poland. The Russians set them up. They kept pulling back and back until the Germans were so far in that they ended up starving and freezing to death. Their tanks also had thicker oil because they invaded Russia at a time when the weather wasn't freezing, so they wouldn't start. Try starting a diesel engine in freezing weather with heavy weight oil. The U.S. had more resources but the technology wasn't better. At the end of the war Russia and the U.S. took Germany's scientists. Look at the B2 stealth bomber. Where do you think that design came from? What about the X29's reverse wing pattern? What about the Soviet Mig 15's swept wings? That all came from German technology.
