rommel vs. patton and tiger tank vs. sherman tank?
who would win between erwin rommel and george patton
who would win between the tiger and the sherman tanks?
Given equal numbers on both sides with equal air support, my pick would be rommel. His break through at Sedan in 1940 during the battle of france as the commander of 7th Panzer Division and, of course his exploits in the desert, but him above others in tactics.
Patton proved to be an unbeatable general as commander of the 3rd Army. Allied air superiority and overwhelming resources in men and material could make any allied general look good on the battlefield.
Regarding Tiger vs. Sherman, the only chance the Sherman's had were their overwhelming numbers and quicker response. As people mentioned above, it took at least 5 tommie cookers to beat a tiger, due to the tiger's slow traverse of its turret. Shermans were quick to get behind the Tiger and take em out at close range.....but only after the first two or three were taken out. In front of Caen, Michel Whitman's lone tiger stopped an entire Canadian division.
Of course the reality was far different, allied air superiority and overwhelming resources rolled over good tacticians like rommel and their far superior tanks.
