I believe the firefly is significantly heavier because of gun and upped armor.

I love that one, was a BIG asset in the north african campaign. This one would fit the bill for a good british tank...

It isn't as bad is one would imagine.

Britanica isn't a source either.  Both Wiki and Britanica are abbreviated articles that have footnotes.  Those footnotes are sources and either Wiki or Britanica can be used to find those.

I'm far too lazy to look it all up again, but the so-called "study" that came to that conclusion tremendously flawed.

How about a sturmtiger that's a freakin naval gun on a tank the nazis actually used it in a revolution. It's just a thought and with a bunch of those you could take over all the bases with a few shots from your guns. And if you get shot insted of blowing up they should be blown away.

Of course you'd need some infantry to support first.  Unless it just wants to sit

Nope, it's got a 38cm low velocity mortar. Lots of punch, nevertheless.
