Too bad he doesn't know Germans used the 50% criterion, where as Soviet union used standard deviation or срединные отклонение.

EnsignExpendable Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 Please continue, I will compile your complaints and mail them to my alma mater, clearly my engineering education is insufficient to understand ballistics and probability and should have its accreditation revoked. The theoretical deviation calculations are backed by practical trials. Somehow all the "but the criterion is different!" crowds conveniently ignore those, even without the token "all Soviet trials are rigged" flailing.

You don't understand your sources and you work with false premises. This is backed by "practical trials" and shows you are wrong. Quote American reviews of Soviet optics call them "the best of those known worldwide". Blind devotion to mythical Zeiss quality is not based on any actual historical evidence.

Too bad quoting an unsubstantiated report doesn't prove anything and satisfies the definition of hearsay. You really don't know how to handle historical data. Btw the German WW2 optics which are considered to be the best, were not built by Zeiss. You really know nothing about this topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the opinion that anyone even remotely interested in WWII armoured warfare was intimately familiar with that report. "Zeiss optics" is like "Kruppstahl", almost a meme in military history circles. My apologies for using specialist jargon on my extremely narrowly specialized blog.

The TWZ-1 is not considered to be the best, so wasn't talking about that one. The ones that are usally mentioned as the best sights of ww2 are the TZF9 and maybe 12. Leitz was the main producer of these sights, Zeiss was mostly restricted to license production, although they provided a thermal imager for the TZF12 called WPG-Z.

At first you were saying that the T-34 could not have the best optics, because the best optics were German and they were not produced by Zeiss. Now, having been shown evidence that some German gunsights were Zeiss-made, you're saying that the ones considered to be the best were not Zeiss-made. Your examples of the TZF 9 and TZF 12 gunsights are irrelevant. The tanks were shipped to the US in 1942, before the allies had captured any tanks that would have the TZF 9, and before the TZF 12 was even introduced into service!

I never inplied there is logical link between the fact, that T34 optics were not the best and the fact that Zeiss did not build all German ww2 optics. Quote Your examples of the TZF 9 and TZF 12 gunsights are irrelevant.
