Civilopedia entry[]
An outgrowth of the World War I-era landship, the tank proved vital during World War II. By this time, tanks retained the same basic design as a landship – treads and guns – but favored a single heavy cannon on a turret, supported by machine guns. The mobility of new tanks allowed divisions to quickly roll through enemy defenses – defined by the German Blitzkrieg, or “lightning war.” Tanks could bypass enemy strongholds to penetrate deep into enemy territory and isolate the fortifications; trenches would never return.
The rise of tanks was aided by industrialization and fed the rise of local industries – Sherman tanks were built in Detroit, Tiger tanks were built by Porsche, and the Japanese Chi-Ha was made by Mitsubishi. Indeed, the construction of heavy armor in World War II led to the rise of the industrial mega-corporations that were influential in the Cold War.
