They also ended up blowing up their own tanks and not the German tanks. As long as they only attack gasoline powered tanks, I'm all for it.

The problem was that Soviet tanks, which they trained on, were diesel, while the German tanks ran on gasoline. So, they would release the dogs, and have them run right at their own tanks!

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.

I knew it was something like that, I just couldn't remember which tank ran off of what.

Both soviet and german tanks ran on diesel, only American tanks used gasoline hence the tommy cooker. If only the m4 would be modeled as such. If one didn't read history and just went of off aces high vehicle characteristics, you would think the m4 was actually a good tank instead of the bane of the u.s army. Alas however I find panthers easier to kill then m4's. Apologizes for the rant just put two 88's into the broad side of an m4 with little affect.

It is a myth that the M4 caught fire because of being fueled with gasoline.  The tendency to catch fire was from stored ammunition detonating.
A Panther has much more armor than an M4.  If you truly hit the broadside of an M4 that would be 31.8mm of armor VS a Panther's 50mm.

There was no German tank in the war that ran on diesel. None.
