The Battle of the Bulge raises many questions which, until now,
have not been adequately answered: How did the major tank types
perform during the battle? What were the specific 'lessons learned'
from the combat? And did these lessons result in changes to tanks
in the subsequent months? Offering detailed answers to these
questions, and many more, this book provides a survey of the
principal tank and tank-equivalents (such as tank destroyers and
Jagdpanzers) that took part in the Ardennes Campaign of December
1944-January 1945. Beginning with a basic overview of the campaign,
accompanied by an order of battle of the major armoured units, it
examines the opposing forces, covering the organization of the two
tank forces to explain how they were deployed. Author Steven Zaloga
also scrutinises the technical balance between the opposing sides,
comparing armour, mobility and firepower as well as other important
factors such as reliability, crew situational awareness, and tank
layout/efficiency. Full of specially commissioned and highly
accurate artwork plates of the tanks themselves, as well as
fascinating technical data based on cutting-edge research, this
title is the definitive guide to tank warfare in the Battle of the
Bulge.
