Anti-Heavy Armour Tank

So as we now have the flame tank, we have offensive tanks against every armour class except heavy armour. (TD is defensive)

So I propose adding a tank that is offensive and is geared towards heavy armoured. Ik RRG may count, but Iโ€™m talking about a melee tank against heavy armour.

Looking for improvement.

I do want more units and would love this unit, but there is already a lot of anti-heavy-armoured stuff, although, you are right, they are all defensive (unless artillery and aeroplanes count), and I would like a unit that I could use to break through heavy Tank Destroyer or Medium Tank lines, bt historically, also, what unit would countries have actually used to defeat heavy armour that was offensive?

this suggestion make Heavy Tank looks like a joke

Because they are.

Simply just use Tank Destroyer? They donโ€™t need to be offensive units, and look at the name! Itโ€™s a Tank Destroyer! What more could you want?

tank destroyer is has and always will be defence

You can attack tanks with it easily. Pretty simple.

Tank destroyers have far more attack damage vs heavy armour than medium tanks do. I don't care if TDs are "defensive units" because they attack better than medium tanks, so who cares?

Yeah, I do think there are plenty of anti-heavy armour units out there, and you are right, the heavy tank is the thing you are looking for here, an offensive melee unit for sue against heavy armour.

It has the same defense and offense, and it sucks elsewise.

Never assume your bombers have free reign. There is always the possibility the enemy has interceptors, rocket fighters, and/or anti-air.

Attack bombers are great support tools but cannot be relied upon as your main counter to heavy armour.

I can't confirm but given Comintern buffs the heavy tank might have equal stats on light and heavy armour. Very respectable in any case.

I remember it used (at least as allied) to have better stats vs. heavy armour than vs. light in 1.5. Is this correct?

Just checked

The allied td has better stats vs heavy than vs light

That should be for all TD

I said heavy tank...

Of course tank destroyers do.

I mean in history the best thing to fight offensive against a tank was a... tank. But I was thinking a "Sappers" unit or a " Panzergrenadier" unit??

Because CoW Infantry is on the scale of a regiment, that's between 2-5000 men, those roles are already built in and represented by infantry's damage to armoured units.
