German Gunners Laughed At 90mm Guns — Until M36s Started Killing Tigers At 2,000 Yards

At the height of World War II, German tank crews were confident — even arrogant. Their Tiger I and Tiger II tanks were nearly invincible, with armor so thick that most Allied shells simply bounced off. To them, the American 90mm gun was a joke — too weak, too slow, too late.

But then came the M36 Jackson.

Armed with the powerful 90mm M3 gun, the M36 was designed for one purpose: to destroy the Tigers. And when it rolled onto the battlefield, everything changed. At over 2,000 yards, the M36 began doing the impossible — punching clean through German armor and turning the hunters into the hunted.
