Aha, an additional accuracy modifier on the Pershing vs Flak. I didn't notice that. I defer to your superior statistical knowledge, Gamesguy. The Pershing does indeed not have much of a chance against a Flak head on.
That said, and I believe I have followed your math correctly, a Flak will take 23.4s to kill a Sherman(Assuming the sherman is small enough to avoid missed shots) or 3.9 shots on average. The Sherman has a DPS of 9.8 against the Flak. This comes out to more damage overall, though with a lower lifespan than a Pershing.
The damage increase to the Pershing proposed by Leophone would give it a DPS of 8.1 against the Flak, an average of 6.6 shots, or ~39.8 seconds to kill.
While I question Relics judgment in making Shermans superior Flak fighters to Pershings, I would assume they wanted VCoH's defensive doctrine to have something besides a Panther that could take on the allied super-tank and have a chance to beat it.
