If you sent a lone modern tank like a Abrams, Leopard, or black panther back to WW2 with a continuous supply of spare parts, ammo, fuel etc. Would it make a difference? (lemmy.world)

I know a lone modern fighter jet would make a huge difference but have always wondered about a tank

Just for the tank. Nothing else. Just wondering how it would perform and if it could change the outcome for any country

    That would still be a huge advantage over any other machine of war in the history of warfare, even today.

    You could say "how much difference would a single modern tank with unlimited ammo, fuel, and spare parts make in Afghanistan in 2010" and the answer would be at least "very significant"
