During
World War II, the Allies produced between them over 165,000 fighting tanks. The
USA produced over 88,000 tanks, the British about 25,000 and the Soviet Union
well over 52,000. Against them, the estimated German WW II Tank Production between
1933 and 1945 is shown below. These are estimates only. Because of the poor quality
of war-time records, figures vary.
