So how many times did you see the pak on the road? Thats proof it can be cloaked even on the road.

I saw it 3 times, therefore it was not cloaked.

Cloaking paks on a road is impossible. Give me a picture of a pak on a road that I can't see(proving that it's there) then we'll talk Tongue.

Yes, but most likely the photographer was German (or he wouldn't be there), so the point it doesn't count. You can always see your allies units. If it had been an American camera those Paks would be stealth incarnate. But even still, those photographers were clearly quite close to the Paks, probably within detection range, so the point is moot anyway.

I don't agree, horses did an incredible work in the russian front where the fuel and transports were missing. Horses and cavalry where the key of some victories of the axis in the eastern front.

Germans never anywhere near the mechanization of the Americans.   Truck and rail based logistics >>>> horse logistics.

Just because they made do, does not make it good.   The German army was so in awe of the American mechanization that a common complaint was "the Yankees had a jeep for every private".

The Russians kicked Germany's ass with their huge fleet of American built lend lease trucks and their few railways.

In August Storm the Russians railed all the way over from Germany, marched over the Mongolian desert(which was half the size of Europe), far away from their railroads and crushed the Japanese in a few days.

Germans just had fail logistics compared to everyone else in WWII.
