The development and design of tanks don't necessarily require everything to be strong. The other meaning of everything being strong is that everything is mediocre.
Tank design needs to be targeted, and the German Army's "Upper Silesia" tank has this feature.
Its goal is very clear; the opponent is the French Army's "Shire A1".
In the meeting organized by Major General Luca at the 7th German Transport Office, there was such a discussion:
"This tank needs very thick armor? No, that would only slow it down. On the battlefield, it will be easily defeated by the 'Shire A1', just like the A7V!"
"To avoid this, its speed must reach at least 12 kilometers per hour, and in extreme conditions, it can be even higher!"
"The armor thickness only needs to block ordinary bullets; after all, the French don't have anti-tank rifles."
"The cannon needs to penetrate the front armor of 'Shire A1', have a high rate of fire, and most importantly, it must have a rotating turret like the 'Shire A1'!"
