Apologies, but this is a topic that comes up over and over and over, and I'm quite weary debating this. Here's a book for you written by someone who knew about tanks and tank warfare, and used primary documents for researching it.

>almost perfect, they broke down less often

Yeah, I think you should read the book.

Anyhow, happy reading.
