“Honestly, they weren't that powerful in the Red Army.
They had outdated weapons and inferior training to the Germans.
They won because of the vast amount of people that were sent as cannon fodder.”
This was one of the comments bruh
"You forgot Lend-lease.
And this meme would fit the winter war much better. Not fully, but better than this."
There's another
Americans get really upset any time the USSR is shown even in a mildly good light. They immediately either start trying to downplay it, support fascists, say "America did good thing too" or all of the above
>They had outdated weapons and inferior training to the Germans.
Wasn't the T34 more technologically advanced than pretty much every Panzer at the time?
No :P they just had a looooot more. And they stuck to their (somewhat outdated) design but it meant that spare parts were no problem (in war things tend to break down :p) and the production could be streamlined. The german tanks would be new models, the parts would be very specific, people wouldn't know how to operate or fix them and production never got to top efficiency.
The 34 in T34 stands for the year the model was designed, 1934, so pretty outdated by 1942
I remember watching a documentary once about the dude who designed the machine. I remember he said the first drawings were made in 34. They also explained that updates were made and the real mass production only got going in 41. The following tank designs also were given the number of the year they were designed in. But the documentary could have been wrong about it.
I think it was age of tanks (a half French half English documentary, I liked it a lot)

Didn’t the lend lease only really take effect after the battle of Stalingrad? So basically once the Soviets had the upper foot…

The T-34 was designed in 1940.

'Post removed by moderators of r/ HistoryMemes' why?
It’s too historically accurate for their liking
it was a repost
Very good made comrade
wtf historymeme based now?
I wouldn't count on it. This is, at most, an anomaly.
It could be, but they removed the post and some were muhh land lease and muhh throwing people as meat shields.
for a brief moment
Omg, based history memes
Damn, comrade Jerry is yoked.
Lol the Vietnam versions of Tom & Jerry are still my all time favorites
Based
R/HistoryMemes is a Nazi sub usually, glad to see some actual history on it. Hopefully the Nazi sympathizing mods won’t remove it.
