23.1 million dead
87,000 Tanks and self propelled guns
63,500 Aircraft
The Nazi-Soviet war was 20 times the size of the Western theater in terms of scale, man-power and fighting units (which began at Normandy where Germany had only 8% of its fighting force). At the finish of the war Nazi Germany were around 5yrs (allies) and 12yrs (Soviet) ahead technologically. Advanced Submarines, Gun, Jet, Tank design and rocket development were far superior to any Allied weapons even until the outbreak of the Korean war (see appendix 5.1)
Ok was a copy and paste but lets salute the old Ruskies.
