"Besides, German kit typically looked meaner than Allied equipment. The 109 looks nastier than a Spitfire. It has a little square welding mask porthole where the man looks out. German bombers looked like evil insects. A Tiger tank looks dangerous, whereas a Sherman looks like a child's toy. German equipment was typically more angular than Allied equipment. The logos and iconography were starker. The words sound threatening; "minengeschoss" and "rüstsätze" and "obersturmbannführer" have a certain ring to them. The German officers wore long leather trenchcoats and big boots, who could fail to be seduced by that?"
lol i find it funny, how people see the german equipment(im not trying to offend here just a thought that passed through my head here) "sounded" and "looked" meaner yet, in the end, those graceful spitfire lines and toyish looking sherman where the ones in Berlin, puttin the war to its end.
