I also noticed that the Western Allies did not focus too much on anti-tank weapons until it was too late whereas the Germans and Russians had various types of anti-tank weapons from ATR to the large caliber static/mobile guns. I think that the Western Allies perhaps were thinking WWI style of warfare where small amounts of tanks would be used to support the infantry and therefore they would rely on their tanks to knock out the enemy tanks. Boy, did they pay a high price for that thinking.
