What if Nazi Germany had 100,000 Abrams tanks at the beginning of WW2?

Would they have won the war?

subhuman goys can't even win a chess tournament, a war is out of question

lack of gas, and so on...

they will be destroyed by P-47 / B-29 Bombers.

Those tanks can run in almost anything. Besides, nazi engineers could figure something out. Old tanks were not fuel efficient either.

But they never built 100,000 of them
This just sounds like a Wehraboo's wet dream

No, because Italy would back stab them with 100,000 of A-10s in such a universe.

...

it wasn't for the lack of tanks that lost the war

it was hitler doing hitler stuff to the army

Is "Abrams" a Jewish name? If so they wouldn't use it for that sole reason.

They wouldn't be able to perform maintenance or repairs on them, so they'd enjoy an initial advantage and then lose it.

B-but nazi engineering...
Maybe they would figure it out, they were not morons.

More advanced so maybe but then 100,000 is a lot and they're tanks, they'd only be able to utilise maybe 2-3 thousand. They'd absolutely destroy everything in tank-to-tank fights but could they get them everywhere? Abrams out of other main battle tanks are particularly vulnerable to infantry though better at tank-to-tank fighting. Could they transport them to other continents? While it would certainly give them a big advantage initially. Allies would soon copy them (to a degree) and reuse downed ones. Tanks alone can't win you a war against most of the world either. You need tech that scales with them, good tanks and outdated (by comparison) everything else wont work well.

If nazi Germany had any tank at the total count of 100000 they'd win the war...
Of course, I'm assuming they are also given manpower with proper training, spare parts, fuel, ammo, etc.
I think a more interesting question would be " What if the Japs were given a Nimitz class in time for Pearl Harbor?"

They would have run out of gas even faster.

theyd just rename it Adolf

FACT: italy cant win

It would be pretty much impervious to any anti-tank weapons, heavy artillery or airstrikes would be needed to take them down
And that wouldn't be easy

The biggest problem I can see is that 100,000 tanks is basically well over a million people tied up to the tank corps, which will eat fuel like a fat guy eats butter
That is assuming they're all being staffed at the same time, they could just as easily warehouse most of them, but then there's the problem of maintaining warehoused tanks and transporting them to the fronts with a crew

That and the minute they lose a tank they can't replace it with anything nearly as good, and maintenance would be not only expensive but slow since they don't have all the necessary parts

Overall, if they had 100,000 Abrams, they would have a massive advantage and probably do considerably more than they could've done, but in reality if they couldn't secure the means of maintaining and fueling the things they'd just be expensive, dead weight

>poland's number one tourist attraction is a nazi concentration camp

They have that nice giant jesus and also that nice underground mine church

They could cannibalize some of the 100k for parts.

What if the crusaders had assault rifles, fighter jets, tanks, and Tomahawk missiles

(IL 2 + White phosphorus)*cluster bombs=Do you feel like a hero yet?

What if arabs had an old RPG 7 and TOW's?

What if the Arabian Peninsula was gassed?

Let's make it more interesting by adding here squads of SU-25.

The only good Muslim is a dead Muslim, so yes.

Cool things like that are not allowed.

The engine alone on that thing would be irreparable in that decade. And given that nazis were forced to literally abandon a considerable percentage of their relatively simple tanks (compared to modern ones like abrams) for mechanical breakdowns, a bunch of them would get fucked by planes and then left behind.

Wouldn't work, Abrams tank requires the internet relay to start the engine to prevent unauthorized access. Thus even having a million Abrams wouldn't help the german cause

Now that I think about it the real problem would be the tooling

What if Neanderthals had nerve gas?

WE WUZ KA- oh shit
