Yeah, only complaint I've read about the Pershing, is that it was slow. I believe they powered it with the same engine that pulled the Sherman along. Being a larger, heavier tank, you think someone would have figured that out.
It was outclassed in Korea, five years later, by the T-34, of course.

Well....now I just read a story saying that the Pershing did well against the T-34. Anyhway, I'm hi-jacking my own thread, so never mind!
