For any of the eggheads. I was just watching a documentary about WW2 tank warfare between the German army and Russians.
But, here is what I want to know in general, regardless of model or side of the war. What would be a good average of ammo, just on the big main gun itself an average tank would hold? My point in asking is, while they all offered powerful fire power, in an intense battle, how quickly could one tank run out on average? It would seem to me not long because of how small they are, say to a battleship or even a sub.
Not that I could fight in combat myself, but those things look to be death traps once you run out.
