I watched Monuments Men yesterday. I liked it. It had it's funny and sad moments. Also saw Fury before that and loved it.

Yeah, I still liked it. But then again, I love anything to do with WW2 tanks and battles, so that could be a factor. Isn't Fury an Easy Eight? One of the ones good at killing Tigers?

Yes the tank with the extended barrel is Fury.
Yet the movie as a whole is quite inaccurate and kinda stupid if you think of the tactics employed.

The 88 can kill a tiger but! The tiger was incompetent and you could use the excuse that he was inexperienced but I say no to that a tiger wouldn't be given to a inexperienced commander.
Heres whats wrong with the ambush scene.
So first off the tiger should have targeted the first then the last vehicle to trap them.
And obviously should have targeted the easy 8 being fury, it was known by the German tankers to target 88's because they could do alot more damage than a regular sherman.
But you know plot armor.
Not to mention when the shermans were repositioning the Tiger had plenty of time to destroy the threat and didn't need to get closer and what was the loader doing when fury was circling the tiger?
Hans! Are you taking a break that will get us killed?
And experienced loader can load a shell in less than ten seconds and its not like the gunner had to do much aiming.
Though the turret traverse speed on a tiger is poor fury was right there tiger!

I have no idea what you’re talking about so let’s just say a scorpion would destroy them all.

120mm on most modern tanks.
M808B uses a 90mm gun so does the M808
Some have a 105mm gun.
