Why didn't Germany mass produce tanks like America did in WW2?

Answer 1

Yes they were getting bombed day and night by the US and Britain. Also the Tanks were made by not the Auto industry as the US but by factories that help built ships. they didn't make things fast and everything in one tank is different in a different class. The III had no same parts as the IV. The US used same parts for different things The body of the M4 Sherman was used for M7 Priest Self-Propelled Artillery and the Kangaroo Infantry Transport.

Answer 2

They did. But German Factories were smaller than the US's and the German's had backed off on producing more War Material in 1940 because they were sure that the war was over and that the German People still wanted a high standard of living.

When Albert Speer took aver control of War production he began to produced more tanks truck and armored vehicles, I fact the 1944 was the top year for German War Production but they never got close to the production of the Allies.

The German's also spent to much time with prototypes which never allowed the factories to produce the really strong tanks that were needed to stop the Allies.

Answer 3

Their factories were under constant attack. I have heard that the Tiger was such a superior tank that it took four Shermans to destroy one Tiger. The catch is that we were producing ten Sherman tanks to every One Tiger tank that Germany produced.
