In this episode:
The opening episode of Tanks! dives into the fierce tank battles of the Eastern Front, where quality clashed with quantity in a brutal test of engineering and endurance.
German Tiger and Panther tanks were technological masterpieces — powerful, armoured beasts that struck fear into Allied and Soviet forces. But they couldn’t be made fast enough. Opposing them were swarms of T-34s and Shermans — simpler, cheaper, and a lot more of them. One German Tiger could destroy dozens of enemy tanks, yet the sheer volume of Allied production turned the tide. This episode explores how industrial might and battlefield necessity shaped the outcome of the war, and how legendary tanks earned their place in history—through fire, steel, and sacrifice.

Tanks! is a gripping documentary series that explores the rise of armoured warfare during the Second World War. From their early development to their pivotal role on the battlefield, the series charts the evolution of the tank as a decisive weapon of modern combat. With dramatic archive footage, expert analysis, and detailed reconstructions, Tanks! examines the machines, the men who commanded them, and the battles they helped shape. This series offers a powerful insight into the brutal reality of armoured warfare in one of history’s most destructive conflicts.
