and again the T-54 and T-55, M47, M48, M60, Leopard I, AMX-30, etc.. are still seen on Twilight battlefields, are still in forward deployed divisions and are still effective - all of those can kick a Sherman's butt any day of the week -but all of them basically have the same armor type and many of them very similar layouts to the WWII tanks you say would be dead meat in ten minutes - they have better guns and ammo and thicker armor but M1's and Challengers they arent

but they are better than the alternative - which is no tank at all
