HMMMMM..Really? Which would you choose to be sent into combat with? The HEAVY Tiger I with heavier armor and larger caliber gun in small numbers or the MEDUIM M4 with lighter armor and lighter caliber gun in great numbers? Freaking no brainer there. The Tiger was a good defesive vehicle while the M4 was designed as an "Assault" tank.
