Can someone explain to me why the UK had the coolest WW2 weapons>

>>30772658
The Bren was the best machine gun and the spandau was rubbish

>>30772712
No, the MG 42 and Type 99 were.

>crusader
>literal panzer fodder

yeah no

>>30772728
FUCK OFF

The Tetrarch alone would shit all over a Panzer III F

Kill yourself commie.

>>30772728
Except Crusaders didnt take heavily losses because you had to place the shot perfectly since it had an amazing deflection profile for the time.

>>30772712

Shut up Lindy.

>coolest WW2 weapons

Probably because their back was hard to the wall so they improvised a ton of shit.
It meant that they came up with some crazy ideas, they were throwing everything out and seeing what worked.

The French had cooler tanks for the 5 minutes they were in the war before surrendering.

The tanks were also vastly superior to the German ones, and the Germans only defeated them by numbers and simply not fighting the damned thing. French Tankers didn't understand mobile warfare, and thought of using the damned things as mobile bunkers and less as actual vehicles.

>>30775453
The French had the best tanks at the start of the war.

You mean like the Spitfire?

Maybe it's because they, while on the decline, were still the fucking EMPIRE and had some balls.
