I saw a show on them and they just look like they got anti-rondardr7 writen all over them. They said they killed Tigers in one shot alot but couldnt take many shots back at them.
-
I'm guessing M-36 and M-10 tank destroyers. The M-10 did remarkably well, in one instance 2 M-10's ambushed a german armored element and inflicted significant losses before withdrawing including multiple Tiger and Panther kills.

The M18 was also at bastonge during the buldge, it had pretty week armor but it had a great gun, mayby the m18 answers your question

There were approximately 40 serviceable Shermans of CCB, 10th Armored defending Bastogne, with another dozen or so towed to fixed positions and used as armored pill boxes. Adding to this was another 11 Shermans and 14 M10s of CCR, 9th Armored.
To this number of fighting vehicles should be added the light tanks (approximately 12), cavalry assault guns, and antiaircraft artillery automatic weapons carriers. At least nine M8 armored cars were also available, and one actually killed a King Tiger by firing point-blank into its engine compartment.
A very important addition to the Bastogne force was provided by the 705th Tank Destroyer Battalion, which was equipped with M18s and two platoons of M36s.
My regards,

The defense of Bastogne is truly one of the great stories of warfare. I :salute those men who stood and fought.
